I don’t know Glen Lee’s politics, but there is one reason to say that revenue from a DC law that DC’s top lawyer says is the law doesn’t exist and one reason only, and that is to give @mayorbowser.dc.gov and @chmnmendelson.bsky.social a pretext to pass more austerity budgets for DC.

Pepco is telling a half truth: when demand spikes, Pepco has to buy energy generated on demand. the price of that energy is determined in auctions where costs have jumped due in large part to increased overall demand from… data centers!

I applaud Brook Pinto’s newfound interest in holding MPD accountable for its various sins, but it’s unfortunate that it took the need to appeal to voters outside of Georgetown to activate it

The correct answer is bananas. Bananas are the worst fruit.

I think it's bad that regular degular journalists are Rothschilds-posting whatever their intentions TBH.

It’s shit like this that, when people tell me it was important to cater to Joe Manchin’s whims because of how critical he was for control of the Senate, makes my head explode.

We cut child poverty in half across this whole country and also instituted universal free meals in public schools across this whole country. And then we let those policies expire. During the previous administration.

the Council should 100% fight this—they have a good shot at convincing a judge that Congress passed the disapproval resolution too late—but I honestly think that if DC continued to operate as if the law was in effect, Congress wouldn’t notice. They got their headline, I doubt they care anymore

The future of DC calls for safe streets, fast and frequent public transit, and far more housing than we currently have. Making DC affordable for working families requires us to unlock barriers to housing and a transportation system that works for all of us. Let's work together to get it done! ✅

MAJOR: Twin Cities Tenants joins five labor unions, together repping 25,900 members, to launch a rent strike drive, vowing to withhold rent March 1 if @governorwalz.mn.gov fails to deliver an eviction moratorium and rent relief. If launched, this would be the largest US rent strike in 100+ years.

If you want to understand why rich guys are turning back to eugenics and recreating the rhetoric and theology of slavery, it’s because they know on some level this level of wealth inequality is unjustifiable bsky.app/profile/marl...

POV you are about to lose at Guess Who

I would like for this to matter but ultimately I think passing the disapproval resolution will nullify the law anyway. The 30-day review period means a resolution can’t be filibustered in the Senate, not that Congress can’t overturn the law outside that window.

She really just said why are you talking about the mass coverup of child rape when you should be talking about money

This is of course a disaster and immoral, but the most heartbreaking thing about it is that the disapproval resolution will be approved ONE DAY before the law would go into effect
