Your weekend long reads 🗞️
Good morning, friends of the Short List!
Some shocking news to kick things off: It's the last Saturday of January. Which means we've been living in 2020 for at least 7 weeks now (don't quote that).
Anyway, how about some long reads to get your day started? Here are a few that made an impact on me this week:
- The hunt for bedbugs: Meet the South Dakota couple who keep thousands of bedbugs in their home.
- A one-two punch: A Detroit man received a settlement check from a race discrimination lawsuit. The bank wouldn't cash it.
- Bull riders and Border Patrol: The U.S. Border Patrol has pumped millions into this pro sports league to help recruit new agents.
