@JamesSurowiecki Alongside GBV's "Bee Thousand" lies Pavement's "Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain".

"These Are Not Fall Colors," by Lync, and "Bee Thousand," by Guided by Voices.

1994 was a phenomenal year for music. Almost none of the great albums from that year are in this image.

Devastated by the Garret Anderson news. The team doesn't win its only WS in 2002 without him. I'll never forget his three-run double in G7. RIP GA. #angels

@DKThomp @NateSilver538 Not for the Browns. :(

The incoming Trump administration is planning a large-scale immigration raid in Chicago next week, per @WSJ, the first move in President-Elect Donald Trump’s promised mass deportation campaign https://t.co/A7MMzRGBkn via @WSJ

Springfield, Ohio said it wasn’t true. The Trump campaign spread it anyway. How a viral rumor about pet-eating migrants took over a town.

The average 30-year fixed rate mortgage fell to 6.55% last week, the lowest since May 2023.

So far, there's been very little response to purchase-mortgage demand (apps up 0.3% on the week). Applications are mired at their lowest levels since last fall's big run-up in rates.

The outrageous injustice marches on. Bring Evan Home.

Prosecutors initiated a federal probe into Donald Trump's activities in 2018, triggered by exclusive WSJ reporting on hush money paid to porn star Stormy Daniels.

As the Trump hush-money trial opens, take a look back at the WSJ reporting that led to it.

[The Wall Street Journal @WSJ]

Read about the 2018 WSJ investigation that uncovered secret payoffs and a botched coverup, triggering a criminal probe into the former president https://t.co/YKIjzNtFDp

[Ashby Jones @jonesashby]

Cool interview with the WSJ's @joe_palazzolo in @nymag on breaking the story back in '16 that ultimately led to the Trump hush-money trial, which started Monday. https://t.co/RYHzlx0e9x

One year stolen. We will not rest until Evan Gershkovich is free.

It's been one year. A powerful message on the @wsj website this morning. #FreeEvan
