We are already 66% leased, and we haven't finished construction yet!

Frankly I'd feel safer if downtown was flooded with houseless people than if it was flooded with cops.

No Kings clearly does not include Aragorn, son of Arathorn, bearer of Andúril (forged from the remains of Narsil), as he is the direct lineal heir of Isildur and thus the rightful ruler of Gondor and Arnor, and called King Elessar, which means “Elf-Stone” in Quenya, the tongue of the Elves.

An HSI federal agent pointed a rifle with live ammunition at a protester and was taunting him.

We're at the point where protesters may be shot and killed by ICE.

If Chief Shultz had worked with us longer, he might already know we tried this before.

It was called the “10 a.m. policy.”

All fires were to be extinguished by 10:00 each morning.

It led to the present wildfire crisis.

Let’s not repeat history.

Social Security, which in the first year served about 250,000 seniors, took 16 months to set up, from bill passage to the first benefit payments.

Washington’s e-bike subsidy program, which will provide about 5,000 grants of either $300 or $1,200, took 37 months to deploy.
The wait is over: Washington's e-bike rebate program, two years in the making, will officially launch on Wednesday.

Links to rebates will be available starting at 7 am, with general $300 rebates available and $1,200 rebates for lower income households.
