How can anyone support anything he suggests? The last election was one of the most secure in history. Undocumented residents cannot vote in federal elections. Period. End of story. He needs to piss off already. Great work here 👇 apnews.com/article/trum...

For decades, the Colorado River has delivered less water than allocated, with shrinking reservoirs making up the difference. Yale SOM’s Todd Cort argues that companies across the West have yet to acco...
