BREAKING John Giles, the Republican mayor of Mesa, AZ announced he is endorsing Kamala Harris for President: "Our party used to stand for the belief that every Arizonan, no matter their background or circumstances, should have the freedom, opportunity and security to live out their American Dream. But since Donald Trump refused to accept the outcome of the 2020 election, Republicans have yet to course correct. The Republican Party with Trump at its helm continues down the path of political extremism, away from focusing on our fundamental freedoms... In the spirit of the late Sen. John McCain’s motto, “Country First,” I call on other Arizona Republicans to join me in choosing country over party this election and to vote against Donald Trump."

Being pro-life means being anti-poverty.

Yo @Delta get some privacy screens

Hard for me to support someone with no values, lies, cheats, rapes, demeans women, hates immigrants like me. He may cut my taxes or reduce some regulation but that is no reason to accept depravity in his personal values. Do you want President who will set back climate by a decade in his first year? Do you want his example for your kids as values?

A force multiplier

As I read the news, I walk by Rodin's "The Burghers of Calais" Biden joins centuries of servant leaders who put their countries and their peoples before their self interests. May others be so inspired.

Completely unfair for headlines to be calling this a "Microsoft outage."

🧵Today is the 10th anniversary of the day Eric Garner was killed. Tina Luongo, attorney-in-charge, Criminal Practice, shares our ongoing commitment to NYC's police accountability community in this thread:

There is absolutely no place for political violence in our democracy. Although we don’t yet know exactly what happened, we should all be relieved that former President Trump wasn’t seriously hurt, and use this moment to recommit ourselves to civility and respect in our politics. Michelle and I are wishing him a quick recovery.

Alexa, will it rain today? "Probably not, there's a 49% chance." She smacks of @NateSilver538 in 2016—technically correct but wildly misleading.

New York City paid Mckinsey $4m to conduct a feasibility study on whether trash bins are better than leaving garbage on the street. The deck is 95-slides long and titled “The Future of Trash”. Some highlights: ▫️The official term is “containerization”, which is the “storage of waste in sealed, rodent-proof receptacles rather than in plastic bags placed directly on the curb.” ▫️Two main types of containerization: 1) individual bins for low density locales; 2) shared containers for high-density. ▫️NYC needs to clean up 24,000,000lbs of garbage a day ▫️Containerization has only become the norm worldwide in major cities in the past 15 years. ▫️New York City first considered containerization in the 1970s but never conducted a feasibility study until now (Mckinsey’s sales team has been dropping the ball) ▫️Key considerations for container viability: • POPULATION DENSITY: NYC has 30k residents per square mile (more dense than comparable big cities) • BUILT ENVIRONMENT: Few places to “hide” containers due to history of infrastructure development. • WEATHER: Snow creates challenges for “mechanized collection” in the winter. • CURB SPACE: Mostly taken up by bus stops, bike lanes, outdoor dining and fire hydrants. • COLLECTION FREQUENCY: NYC needs to double frequency of pick-up for estimated speed of trash that bins would accumulate. • FLEET: A new garbage truck will needs to be designed to collect rolling bins at scale. ▫️ The proposed solution (literally garbage bins and shared containers) covers 89% of NYC streets and 77% of residential tonnage. ▫️The three case studies — because you gotta have solid case studies — are Amsterdam, Paris and Barcelona. ▫️There is a slide called “Why containerization matters” and three reasons are “rats”, “pedestrian obstruction” and “dirty streets” (the 21-year intern that did this slide billed at prob $10k an hour is my hero). The study is actually pretty interesting. I have no idea if $4m is a rip-off to learn that “yeah, we should put garbage in bins so rats don’t eat it” but I would have happily done it for 10-20% of that budget (and come to a similar conclusion).

Anyone else? @NYTGames

I adore Alex Morgan. One of the greatest of all time. But she’s aged significantly from her prime playing days & gracefully accepted that in order to win the gold it was time to pass the baton.
