Would bussing work today with the wokes? Feels like a true test.
Peer quality is strongly linked to outcomes. You take poor disadvantaged kids and start sending them to areas with high property values (and high property values because of schools), let's see how people react?
I for one unabashedly traded less house for better school district. I'm sure many others have as well.

My answer: I think it would work with the almost-religious true wokes. But the "go along to get along" folks probably won't have it.

When bussing started I was in high school. Tuition at that school now is $22K per year. I'm not sure what we paid, it couldn't have been more than 2 or 3 hundred.

Sorry. Future presidents need to know that can’t just go down the path of launching assaults on democracy if they lose. Figurative and literal.

Future Presidents should be treated just like any other American, with all the rights and privileges we enjoy.
If you don't like that, China is a large communist country that might suit your idea of law and government better.

Some talking head said that the contract between the Trump organization and NYC specifies that the contract can be terminated for "criminal behavior."
AFAICT, President Trump was impeached, but not convicted. Also, I admit I might be wrong, "criminal behavior" is decided in the courts, not Congress.
That sound you hear is the sound of Trump organization lawyers salivating.
ETA: NYC's announcement occurred before the impeachment. Good luck and [@Jolly] enjoy [/@jolly].

For his sake, I hope he doesn't use Lin Wood and Sidney Powell, who in recent weeks haven't salivated so much as drool.

At an insanely stupid cost. The damages they can claim are significant.

Beyond loss of revenue, what else? Damage to (cough) reputation?

Just read that the Trump organization's contracts with NYC are in excess of $40MM.
