Example Sentences
the expediency of such a plan is questionable
Recent Examples on the Web Prominent pro-life activist Lila Rose, founder and president of Live Action, cautioned Republican candidates against changing positions for political expediency in a statement to Fox News Digital. 
Thomas Phippen, Fox News, 27 Aug. 2022 This much seems clear: Too much is at stake on all sides to rush to judgment or fall prey to even the smallest shortcuts because of calls for expediency at the potential expense of investigative and courtroom certainty. Bryce Millercolumnist, San Diego Union-Tribune, 26 Aug. 2022 There is nothing courageous in this veto, and the reasoning for it is overflowing with expediency. Anita Chabria, Los Angeles Times, 22 Aug. 2022 Those who opt for expediency can wager $5 on any fighter to win their bout at UFC 278 this weekend. Xl Media, cleveland, 16 Aug. 2022 Council’s Chief of Staff Joseph Nanni, who was part of the conversation with Budish and Merriman, urged more expediency. Kaitlin Durbin, cleveland, 14 Aug. 2022 But the soulless expediency runs in both directions. Margaret Sullivan, Washington Post, 1 Aug. 2022 Human rights aren’t a matter of political expediency. Adam Sabes, Fox News, 21 July 2022 Series creator Graham Roland, though, has led with a case that isn’t exactly simple so much as needlessly simplified for expediency.
