So I'm from Virginia. I currently live in TN and I also lived here as a teen. It's a little complicated.
Anyway, the Rutherford County PUBLIC library is where I spent a lot of time as a tween/teen. It shaped me. It saved me. This is a PUBLIC LIBRARY not even a school.
And I'm proud of *Luanne.

Can we talk about some of the oil-related stuff in the Premier's address? I'll get into the immigration piece in a column tomorrow, but some of the assumptions around oil production and exports she was using were....bananas?
Listen to Max, folks. He speaks reason.
My latest: With his new auto sector strategy and a plan to double grid capacity, Mark Carney isn't just talking a good game on diversifying our trade relationships away from America.
He's also building a roadmap to Canada's low-carbon future. #cdnpoli

Gregory Bovino is back in Chicago, and so is the violence.
Trump sending him here is not about safety. It’s about fear and force. We won’t give in.
In Congress, I’ll vote to abolish ICE.

From: Sent: To: Subject: H <hrod17@clintonemail.com> Friday, August 28, 2009 4:39 PM verveerms@state.gov' Noori Ali Do you recall Noori Ali(?), the ten year. old Yemeni girl who got herself divorced? I met her at the Glamour awards last year. There was a CNN story last few days about how unhappy she is, still living at home, not attending school and quite angry that her life is not better. Is there any way we can help her? Could we get her to the US for counselling and education?
Meanwhile, here's an example of the horrendous things found in Hillary Clinton's emails—the only story worth covering for any serious news outlet in 2016, apparently.
This email is also regarding a child who suffered abuse from a grown man.
The discharge petition to force a vote on the Epstein Files only received a handful of GOP votes.
But when we get the actual vote to release them, I'm presuming we'll see a whole lot more, right?
"Congressman _____ voted against releasing the Epstein Files" isn't an ad you want before the midterms
It's astounding how much CO₂ we put into the atmosphere each year by burning fossil fuels.
For comparison, we all agree that plastic pollution is bad, but the mass of ALL THE PLASTIC humanity has ever produced is only 25% of the CO₂ we emitted into the atmosphere in 2025.
"But the true message—the prospective message—is that pardons will be available to everyone who joins him in election subversion in 2026 and 2028. This wave of preemptive pardons is a permission slip, an encouragement for election subversion in the future."

I wonder if the United States can learn anything from the last time a major industrialized country decided to isolate itself from the rest of the world?
Almost a decade after the Brexit vote, GDP in the UK is around 6-8% lower relative to peer countries. (Source: www.nber.org/papers/w34459)

With all due respect, you're not going to get past "internal recriminations" unless and until the current congressional leadership steps aside.
This echoes the conservative counterargument to union rights a century ago, the so-called "liberty of contract."
As FDR's Interior Secretary Harold Ickes noted, that kind of "liberty" merely gave helpless individuals the freedom to "drive a bargain with a great corporation."
“If Schumer really wanted to use his considerable influence and leverage to stop this, he could have done that,” a senior Democratic Senate aide tells Zeteo. “He didn’t.”
London's High Court slams oligarchs Kolomoisky and Boholiubov with a $3 billion bill for looting Ukraine's biggest bank through sham loans that drained $5.5 billion, nearly toppling the system. #Corruption
Oh
Based on everything I’ve seen of Sim’s, I’m not surprised. Hugely disappointed, but not surprised.
Incredibly short-sighted and irresponsible, and completely disconnected from the real values & priorities of Vancouverites. This move would be awful not only for Vancouver, but also for all the cities that Vancouver’s leadership has inspired over decades of North American sustainability leadership.

Good morning to all those people who wasted the last decade saying, "there's no point tackling climate change in the UK, because China."
