I assume they’re regulars who have safe storage elsewhere, and don’t want to lug a heavy d-lock everywhere.

Kotzebue AK, pop 2900, is under mandatory evacuation because of storm surge. No roads out of town, so evacuation is to high school.

Average annual temp in NW AK has increased 4.5˚F in last 50 years, fall temp 3-4˚F. 2-3 more storms/yr.

But sure: kill off renewable energy in favor of gas/oil/coal

OK. It's going to be coming out soon because of the relentless investigations of Pam Bondi and Kash Patel, so I might as well admit it before the news breaks:

I am the General Counsel of Antifa.

Trump (1) reveals he doesn't know what habeas corpus is and (2) punts to Noem, who famously revealed her own ignorance at a Senate hearing when she defined habeas corpus as "a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country."

Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus?

TRUMP: Suspending who?

Q: Habeas corpus

TRUMP: I don't know. I'd rather leave that to Kristi.

“When streets became calmer & safer, more people felt comfortable trying a bike commute for the first time. Families began pedaling to the park…Local businesses saw new life…And cycling stopped feeling like a niche activity—it became part of everyday Parisian life.”

To be clear, the President has been summarily executing suspected members of “cartels” on his say-so, on the basis of a secret legal memo from Bondi’s DOJ.

Bondi: "Bondi: "Just like we did with cartels, we are going to take the same approach, President Trump, with antifa -- destroy the entire organization from top to bottom. We are going to take them apart."
