El Salvador Vs. Canada Time Tv Channel Stream Lineups Betting Odds For Concacaf World Cup Qualifying

Les Rouges sit atop the CONCACAF qualification table, holding a four-point lead over the United States and Mexico, and they travel to San Salvador with the hope of going a perfect three-for-three international break. If Canada secures victory, its second-ever World Cup appearance and first since 1986 would be surely on the horizon, with the final three matches a mere formality. An outside shot at mathematical qualification remains in this round, but all four results would have to align perfectly, a possible but unlikely scenario....

Election Not Canonization

We are not selecting a moral tutor, or a role model for our children. Nothing in the normal lives of politicians specially equips them for those functions, and nothing in our constitutional order or political tradition assigns those functions to politicians. We are not selecting someone to (in the gaseous language of today’s politics) “control the economy” or “get the country moving.” Presidents can’t control the economy. (Who wants to live in a country where they can?...

Elizabeth Warren Hints Support For Primarying Manchin Sinema If Voting Bill Doesn T Pass

The Senate began debate on the voting rights legislation—which would expand voting access and restore key provisions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965—on Tuesday. But two moderate Democratic senators, Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona and Joe Manchin of West Virginia, threaten to derail the bill through their support of the filibuster, a Senate rule requiring at least 60 votes to end debate on a bill. In an evenly-divided senate where no Republicans have said they would vote to end the filibuster on the voting rights legislation essentially kills any chance of the bill passing....

Elon Musk Doesn T Want Free Speech. He Wants Freedom From Accountability Opinion

Hey, it’s a free market, right? Musk says no one should object to what he wants to do with Twitter because he’s a “free speech absolutist,” and who can be against free speech? Besides (he and his apologists say) if consumers don’t like what he does with Twitter, they can go elsewhere. Freedom to choose. Free market? Free speech? Free choice? When billionaires like Elon Musk justify their motives by using “freedom,” beware....

Last weekend, he said he would sell 10 percent of his holdings in the company, worth more than $20 billion, based on the results of a poll he conducted on Twitter. The sale tweets caused a panicked sell-off of Tesla stock earlier this week but it recovered slightly yesterday, with shares up 2.6 percent to $1,096.
