I'm crying real tears. I love you, New York. I love the Knicks. I love that OG was the one to make that play. Not sure what else to say. My heart is bursting.

BREAKING: Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz will be the Democratic VP candidate, alongside Kamala Harris. Walz forged a reputation as a Governor who makes good policy happen. Last year he signed a law guaranteeing free breakfast and lunch for all Minnesota students. And that's not all 🧵

Replying to @YaleLJournal
In his Article, Zimmerman draws on interviews and historical accounts to explain how federal agencies help states draft legislation. He shows how such collaborations may further values associated with federalism by encouraging accountability, deliberation, and experimentation.
