Areas and institutions that lean Democratic politically. Plus a few GOP areas with long-running demographic decline.

All of the schools seem to be in metro areas where there are probably opportunities for consolidation.

The affluent in these places don't send their kids to public schools and Montclair public schools are in a gigantic financial scandal anyway.

Clamping down on immigration will go down as one of the greatest policy blunders in US history. The American people are about to find out the hard way that national economies are essentially pyramid schemes.

Wishcasting. The US could let in tens of millions of immigrants in a single year.

Yeah, I am generally viscerally horrified by the procedures of ICE/CBP but I am still somewhat disgusted by liberals counterargument that we need immigrants to do jobs that are beneath us.
Nothing is beneath us, except what's beneath everyone.

Immigrants to europe are not statistically similar to immigrants to the US.
The US is much better at integrating immigrants into its society and making them economically productive.

Because people don't want to have kids in a sad, unsafe, uncertain, unaffordable country without a safety net like universal healthcare that hollowed out the middle class and brought massive inequality by disastrous tax cuts and neoliberal policies.
