I think CU has been popular for a long time, and there are enough rich folks in Texas, and other states, who can afford that bill. The funny thing is my daughter never applied to CU even though I thought she should as just another option to consider, and her reason was that she thought it was a huge party school. So she went to Oregon, where she . . . parties a lot.
Vladeck is one of the good guys. He’s been outspoken against right wing executive overreach, and Trump, for a while. He wrote a book critical of the Roberts Court’s increasing use of the shadow docket, and an article in the New York Times during Trump’s first term titled “How the Supreme Court is Quietly Enabling Trump.” He for sure hasn’t been sitting on the sidelines during the rise of MAGA. I don’t know if he left UT Law for Georgetown because of the increasing MAGA-fication of the university’s leadership and oversight, or if because he’s from the DC area. But UT lost a damn good one. If the “hyperbole” comment rubbed you the wrong way, he’s a law professor who maybe tries to appear measured in his criticisms so as not to seem like the reactionary anti-Trump lib professor. And yes, I know that does nothing for 80% of the reading electorate.
Yeah, with the current models I think there's a good possibility that isn't happening. If anything, roads around town might be eventually be fine that evening, but I figure they gotta make a call well before that for safety and logistical reasons.
That's risky. Trump might drop a nuke on Portland as a test, just to, you know, show the EU what might be coming if they don't get reasonable over Greenland.
