Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. What about painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them. Via @usa.streetsblog.org @nyc.streetsblog.org

Love it: the night after he was kicked off of CBS for good, Stephen Colbert hosted a public access show in southeast Michigan.

We are going to savor this one. Our client, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, is freed of these outrageous, vindictive charges. It’s a good day.

BREAKING: Judge Waverly Crenshaw dismisses indictment of Kilmar Abrego Garcia based on selective and vindictive prosecution. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Abrego Garcia should apply for compensation from the weaponization fund

They're stealing billions of your money to pay off violent right-wing psychos while doing everything in their power to spike gas up to $5 a gallon, make groceries into a luxury and hand the country over to the oligarchs who want to permanently replace you.

critically this was the case in 1870 when the 15th amendment was ratified! there is literally no such thing as partisan gerrymandering and manipulation of voting rules in the south outside of the context of “white reactionaries want to neuter black political power”

The NYT removed the "um"s in Trump's answer on Taiwan, but put "um"s in AOC's answer on Taiwan to make her look dumb Trump said "Um, I would say 'like' is maybe too strong a word...um, no, I'm holding that in abeyance and it depends on China, depends, it's a, it's a.." L: Trump R: AOC Video below

seems like jared polis thought this would make him look like an enlightened and humane centrist instead of a dumbass

She betrayed her trust for the purpose of destroying our social compact of peaceful governance. Such an attack on democracy should not be considered a non-violent crime. It is playing with fire, threatening society with violence on a scale more massive than any mere assault ever could.

Progressive candidate for Colorado AG calls for censure or impeachment of Gov Jared Polis (D) for giving clemency to Tina Peters

I’m pro-freedom, pro-law and order, pro-limited government, and pro-the Declaration and the Constitution. And so today I’m a Democrat.

Disgraceful. Absolutely disgraceful. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Curious: how many non violent offenders are in Colorado prisons for non violent offenses? Do they get pardons too?

I wish a single elected Dem had half the courage to articulate the argument as clearly as this gent does.

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

President Obama: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz.”

Generations of doctors and medical researchers have studied childhood vaccines. Now an ex-heroin-addicted nepo baby whose brain was partially eaten by a worm is conducting a study of his own. When his work is done, America will have the full picture on vaccines.

Denver RTD is one of the least rideable train systems I’ve ever experienced. The unpredictability, combined with infrequency, make it completely infeasible for anyone with even the loosest schedule to keep.

Republicans have NEVER given up on gaslighting us about Trickle-Down Theory

This administration ended work from home policies that caused many federal employees who can't afford DC price to leave government. In the meantime, Cabinet Secretaries treat their jobs like a side hustle to their brand building.

Pete Buttigieg took a brief leave when his son was in the ICU and Republicans still attack him for it to this day. But Duffy goes on an extended vacation to shoot a reality show while there are all sorts of pressing problems with air travel and Fox News thinks it's awesome. Beyond parody.

You can't "earn" a billion dollars and none of their examples did. Michael Jordan earned $93m playing basketball. He's worth $3.5b today because of our meticulously-engineered legal, economic, and tax structures that prioritize accumulated capital and property over everything else.

virginia voters should call their delegates and senators and demand that they ignore this illegitimate ruling

Maybe there’s a perfectly innocent explanation for why Fox News was waiting outside a Democratic lawmaker’s office before the FBI raid. But if this happened under a Democratic president, MAGA would already be screaming “deep state” and “weaponization.” Americans should be very alarmed.

Mr. CJ, a few high-level suggestions: - disclose the $ Harlan Crow is paying Thomas - stop flying Stop the Steal flags - stop going on MAGA podcasts - stop jackhammering the path to clear the way for Trump to do anything he wants & blanket immunity An oz of introspection goes a long way.

Pointless snow day in Denver today. And I realized that post-pandemic we gave up on the idea that kids could be occupied all day in remote learning, but also decided that every possible extra curricular needs to be moved and reworked, into the day hours, to make sure they're accommodated.

Can someone let the AP know that violating court orders is not a sign of "executive power. " It is a sign of contempt, lawlessness and authoritarianism.

Name your top 15 shows ever, gut instinct only Ted Lasso Seinfeld Cheers Mash The Cosby Show In Living Color The Wire Band of Brothers Six Feet Under Breaking Bad Sopranos Andor Game of thrones Mad Men The Pitt

Kind of weird that the president is a rapist, and a court reaffirmed it, and everyone knows it, and we're all just going about our days like normal.

I wonder how many rights will need to be stripped before elected institutionalist democrats will wake up to the realization that it is good politics to fight for their constituents.

I'm legit shocked to see @rickhasen.bsky.social's first line in his new piece in Slate excoriating SCOTUS. You don't even need the full sentence: "Wednesday’s 6–3 party-line decision in Louisiana v. Callais…" Party-line. I've never seen Hasen talk that way about the court, but he's not wrong. Wow.

The hotel wasn’t the problem here.

I no longer believe there is such a thing as a “normal billionaire”. They’re literally all crazy. apple.news/A4J_gziZOSEq...

If you were horrified watching elected leaders run & scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed. Now, become a part of the solution & only vote for people determined to address gun violence in America.

Our society has a massive blind spot when it comes to how dangerous these giant trucks and SUVs are to everyone outside of them.

Unlike the Democratic leadership in Congress, which still suffers under the delusion that there's a rump of good Republicans who are better than this and really want to forge bipartisan solutions to get back to normal, former GOP allies like Bill Kristol know that it's time for major changes.

“What I didn’t know was that measles can cause long-term complications. A child can seem fine while the virus slowly replicates in her brain… Because both Britain and the United States are confronting outbreaks, I am sharing my story. Parents should know just how dangerous this disease is.”

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

"The rise of extreme wealth is one of the clearest signs of this imbalance. In 1987, billionaires held wealth equal to 3% of global GDP. Today this tiny elite, just 0.0001% of the world population, owns the equivalent of *16%* of world GDP in wealth."

You'd think that over the last 30-40 years, instead of pushing into ever more gerrymandered and polarized corners, both parties would have seen this happening and thought, maybe it would benefit Dems AND Reps if we reform out system. www.instagram.com/reel/DWmBnPG...

For decades, postal workers avoided even the appearance of being serial killers. David Berkowitz is taking a different approach.

Genuinely depressing to me that your partner has to Doordash to raise money for your cancer treatment when you get old. What happens if you don't have a partner? Are we just working to pay a landlord and save up for a medical emergency when we're elderly?

Again, there's a strange feeling of whiplash when you watch what's happening at the federal level at the hands of a political party and movement that actively wants to make people's lives worse and then turn around and see a leader at the city level who actively wants to make people's lives better.

TikTok, Twitter, Facebook, Fox News, The Wall Street Journal, CBS, and CNN all have Trump-aligned owners. Here’s why US media has a liberal bias problem.

What a sad boring little man. Living in monoculture leads to the death of ingenuity, creativity, growth, learning, and experiences.

Yes. Exactly this.

this is just stunningly corrosive to public trust and there need to be congressional subpoenas and jail time this is actually a great use of oversight power the second dems take control of congress - haul polymarket execs up there and make them give you everything they have on this shit

Maybe this isn’t healthy, but I don’t think I’ll ever be able to forgive the 78M f’ing people who put this orange a-hole and his band of idiots into power, again.
