Although I grew up playing, I’m no soccer expert - this performance was about more than talent. Probably the best American coach in my lifetime. x.com/peterrutzler/status/20…

Balugon has that elite touch we haven’t had maybe ever. Him Pulisic is an elite combo. Great coaching. This will be a fun team to watch.

This Fox World Cup pregame coverage is painful. No chemistry. A bunch of peacocks with half of them with English as a second language.

I know I have been listening to too much Odd Lots when I have a dream about being on an Odd Lots listener panel

This needs to be seen. Mom gets the W for recording and the kiddo is on cloud 9 🔥🔥🔥

This bivariate map uses WRI's Aqueduct 4.0 data to show projected gross water demand (white→orange) vs. blue water availability (blue→purple) under a business-as-usual scenario by 2065–2095.

Making it easier to do the whole person pointing overlaid on a screen/tweet should get someone fired on here - garbage format

A property tax is not an income tax, it is a consumptions tax where the thing being consumed is the services provided to maintain the infrastructure for the homes (water, power, gas, roads, schools, etc). It is calculated via home values only because local governments have no access to anyone's income and cannot levy and income tax, so the price of the home serves as a clumsy and imperfect proxy for ones investment in the area and ability to pay.

The fact that the Atlanta political establishment and the business community has acted so blasé towards the objectively embarrassing and dangerous conditions of MARTA shows that they have no business being in their current roles

The Governor's property tax proposal was released roughly 24 hours ago. The Legislature is expected to vote on it early next week. For a proposal that could fundamentally restructure local government finance in Florida, that's warp speed. As I see it, lawmakers have three options. Realistically, only two are viable. 🧵

We are getting the first grey cell in nearly five years. #RolandGarros

Fonseca vs Djokovich is one of the better matches of this tennis season. If you get a chance to watch the last set - worth it.

Engineer - Do you think it is a good idea to spend $500k to know why and where you flood in your city, and what can be done to fix it? City X - No, we don't have money for that. We are giving $2M/yr a year to a business consultant to reenvision and market our city.

Property tax existed at the time the Constitution was ratified. It had long been a major source of income for colonial governments. And no less than Adam Smith, the father of capitalism, defended property tax, especially land tax, as one of the fairest, most effective taxes.
