As CBP agents menaced Chicago area residents, caravans of protesters followed, honking their horns and blowing whistles...Protesters decked their vehicles out in anti-ICE flags, or scrawled things like “Bovino, you a BITCH” on the back windows of their pickup trucks.

Pretty funny to see the Commies still running these "2025 Season Tickets are Sold Out" commercials, as they have for a month. The season is almost over. How many fans are calling up in late November asking about season tickets?

Upset about shitty air travel? You should dress nicer. Upset about high prices? You should just ignore it. Upset about bad inflation? You should just move to another state.

Really nice to see these new bagged stop lights at 16 and Spring Pl NW, though I think they have been here months. This is one of the most dangerous intersections in the city for pedestrians. @brianneknadeau.bsky.social, do you know when these are to become operational?

This is fantastic news. Someone wants to build apartments at 3700 14th NW, the NW corner of the 14/Spring intersection. The current parcel is the old decrepit Carolina restaurant that has been closed for nearly 13 yrs @popville.bsky.social

Does anyone know if WMATA riders are allowed to cut through the parking lot at IAD when leaving the station? Or do they have to walk around it as shown on WMATA's trip planner?

"One thing I should make clear, though, is that I’m not a jerk. I don’t have to have my way. I’ll do this in a Kia Forte too."

@bensolis1.bsky.social John James is from Sheby Twp, not Shelbyville

The ‘Remove the Regime’ protest is happening now!

This would be yet another example of mixing politics and flight safety. ATC is not elementary school and controllers & techs should not be treated like the kids who made it thru the 3rd grade without missing a class. (h/t to @pajaro505.bsky.social) www.cbsnews.com/news/only-co...

New post at CAMPAIGN TRAILS on the incredible shrinking Speaker of the House.

Anil is spot the f–– on here. See, e.g.:

Golden Dome sounds like it's progressing according to plan www.reuters.com/business/aer...

@michaelstone.bsky.social Nice Golden Dome story. Keep up the good work.

Tom Sherwood says there's talk of a casino being built next to the new stadium at RFK.

TIL that Toni Braxton is from Annapolis.

@notmurielbowser.bsky.social What do you think about this? draftmurielbowser.com

Apparently the Post isn't dead yet www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

So this is happening outside of the Heritage Foundation right now "Fuck ICE! Fuck ICE! Fuck Project 2025! Fuck Alligator Alcatraz!"

The Court today ruled what we have known all along: the federal occupation of the District is unlawful, unwelcome, and unjust. This is a victory for democracy, and a victory for DC and our 700K residents who have stood united for our right to self-govern. Thank you, AG Schwalb.

My favorite Instagram misunderstanding is when people play Phil Collins' Another Day in Paradise as some kind of inspirational soundtrack to video from a tropical location.

It sucks that we have to write this same article over and over again every year, but I always appreciate it when larger media outlets do it, even if they never quite hit the most important point: that we won't solve this without confronting car dependency itself.

If you care about road violence, policing, and media coverage of fatal bike crashes, this case—where attorneys for Flint PD are blaming a (drunk) rider for his own death despite obvious police negligence—is super interesting. www.mlive.com/news/flint/2...

You can make statistics say anything you want. What would be nice would be for WMATA to make public what percentage of bus trips simply do not happen because of a chronic shortage of bus drivers—the dreaded “delays because of operator availability” alerts that are ubiquitous.

The House bill being voted on today to require cash bail in DC is insane. DC hasn’t had cash bail since 1992, and crime has plummeted since. Our current system is near identical to federal law. People should be held pretrial if they pose a safety risk — not because they are too poor to pay bail.

@wmata.com BusETA is down. When will this be back up?

The dangerous drunken bicyclist trope on trial in Michigan. A bicyclist, threat to no one, happened to have been drinking when he was struck and killed by a cop. He now has a traumatic brain injury. And now the cop's lawyer is blaming the cyclist, a threat to no one. www.mlive.com/news/flint/2...

Andrew Paul Johnson was arraigned in a Florida court in October on multiple charges, including molesting a child as young as 11 years old. Johnson dangled the prospect that one of the children could receive money bc...he was entitled to $10 million as part of reparations for his January 6 arrest.

This story from @noturtlesoup17.bsky.social, captures how the impunity Jan6ers believe they had LED DIRECTLY to Andrew Paul Johnson sexually abusing young children. theintercept.com/2025/11/17/p...

A man today in SW MI was sentenced for being drunk and driving his vehicle through the gas pumps of a gas station. Injuring seven. His sentence? Two years probation. The video is horrific. www.mlive.com/news/kalamaz...

When you have leadership that believes real data points, has a commitment to its people, and has both political spine and a willingness to spend political capital, you can have good things! When you don't? Well, that explains the shitbox situation we have in almost all of the USA.

I lived a college dorm for a week at a basketball camp in the mid 90s and it was AWESOME. No screens. I do remember hearing Under the Table and Dreaming on the radio and reading Natural Born Killers that week. Oh and flipping through Eastbay for new bball jerseys

thinking about running for mayor of DC so the personal liberties and free markets newspaper can also write about me not owning a car

Bullets are 1-11 to start the season "But here's why this season's rebuild is different from the last 15 rebuilds" Sin, Wash Post

GW basketball plays Rage's Killing in the Name, but censors the "some of those who work forces are the same who burn crosses" verse :/

These are some amazing @wmatagm.bsky.social headways on the Silver Line. 15 min until two Ashburn trains arriving in a minute of each other. Headway incompetence is a Randy hallmark. Randy for mayor!

The question about whether or not U.S. broadcasters are going to be manipulated by this administration is no longer hypothetical. And now we have a country run by "the greatest champion for sports of any president in American history" that's about to host the world's most-watched megaevents

The House will vote next week on two bills advancing President Trump's takeover of DC. After a 43 day paid vacation, their first order of business is not to address the many problems facing the nation, but to attack DC. #DCStatehood will stop Congress from wasting time micromanaging DC

After being gone for 7 weeks, the House next week will vote on two bills impacting DC: the “District of Columbia Cash Bail Reform Act of 2025” (H.R. 5214) & the “Common-Sense Law Enforcement and Accountability Now in (CLEAN) DC Act of 2025” (H.R. 5107): rules.house.gov/media/announ...

oh wow, nobody could have predicted that in a county governed by the car industry, whose local, state, and national governments mostly exist to subsidize and mandate driving and car ownership, and whose carmakers churn out massive, deadly, polluting, insanely expensive tanks,,,,

Will Lewis will print whatever you want if you send him a text asking him how he & Bezos feel about having to write “Mayor-elect Lewis George” next year

Hey @notmurielbowser.bsky.social, did you see your puff piece in the comPost today? How much did you pay to get this piece placed? www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...

"Great nations do not fear reporters — they protect them." Read Press Club President @mikebalsamo.bsky.social's statement on the decision by the Beijing High Court to uphold the seven-year sentence against journalist Dong Yuyu. #JournalismIsNotACrime #FreeYuyu www.press.org/newsroom/pre...

Staring down the barrel of a 30 minute headway on 14th St NW at 7 am. Better Bus has been an abysmal failure. @wmatagm.bsky.social deserves to be fired for screwing over bus riders.
