Mike Domanico's store thrived during the Biden administration, but Trump's return to the White House has been bad for business.

Shapiro was one of several Democrats marking the anniversary of the attack for the first time since Trump returned to office. Pennsylvania Senate Democrats also held an event in the state Capitol Tuesday.

The 35-year-old mini mall at 1625 Chestnut St. is almost 80% occupied, but its performance was stronger before COVID-19.

Donald Trump’s reckless tariffs are causing chaos and uncertainty — and leading to higher prices for small business owners like Erin. It’s hard enough to start and keep a small business afloat — Pennsylvania’s small business owners can’t afford this President’s economic chaos.

"The American Dream is virtually synonymous with a large suburban house. But people living in them aren’t any happier. There’s the tax of moving to distant suburbs: More debt, longer commutes, more maintenance and less time for socializing and exercise." www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...

Five years ago today, a violent mob incited by Donald Trump stormed the Capitol and tried to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

100% agreed. It’s important for individuals with progressive viewpoints to resist the urge to compare or “out-progressive” each other. To build a coalition resilient & compassionate enough to create change, we must align values AND create more space for divergent approaches, voices & capabilities.

I don’t see it as a competition… it’s hopefully a tipping point, and a powerful potential collaboration and mutual inspiration between @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social in New York City, @wutrain.bsky.social in Boston, @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social in Seattle & many more mayors to come. City leadership.

"When you get sworn in, you get sworn at" 🤣🤣 I'm bracing myself!

Finally affirmed my oath of office! Details on the book under this post 👇🏾

Amid the chaos, here’s what progress looks like. RFS alumni Jayden Williams and Akbar Ali, both in their 20s, were elected last year and are now in office 🎉 This isn’t symbolism. It’s young leaders governing, shaping policy, and building real power one office at a time.

Congestion pricing has improved commute times, bus speeds, noise levels, traffic safety, and businesses and restaurants have seen more profits. A runway success by any measure. And a model for other cities too. Gift 🎁 link: www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

I hope this fails and never comes to Pennsylvania. I hate that anti-trans hate is bipartisan. :(

Nursing home staffers told Robert Flesch that Peco had fixed the leak and the building was safe, he recalls, despite the lingering gas smell.

Colin and Sophie Hortman, the children of Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, are asking Trump to remove the false posts about their parents' killing:

School administrators and community members gathered Sunday to chalk positive messages onto the school sidewalk to counter the racist messages graffitied at Roxborough High.

We are adrift, rudderless, thrown to the wolves by a national political media that for all intents and purposes is now merely an arm of the fascist regime. The dark place ... it is getting darker. We need a billion dollar local journalism fund, STAT.

Officers who defended the Capitol on Jan. 6 say their struggles linger, 5 years after the riot

If you care about what's happening in Venezuela, stop driving. Stop buying gas. Fuck cars and support public transportation in your city. That's how you fight fascism.

My final weekend of "freedom" before my swearing in ceremony.

More AI-generated images of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro being detained by US military and drug enforcement agents have been shared online. They are all fake and created by an Instagram user who makes and posts generative AI content.

Insane how much these people hate their own country

I will never forgive or forget all of you brain dead morons who said Republicans are just as bad as Democrats, so don't vote and let it all burn down. Are you happy now?? Is the world burning fast enough???

We are a poorly run country, managed by idiots whose ignorance is making all of us suffer. They're hateful and determined to cause misery with every policy they enact.

The US has manufactured its dependence on oil, bulldozed entire communities for it, and now the President is illegally invading Venezuela for oil.

Yup. Car-centric land use that locks in car dependence.

Just an annoying reminder that the unquenchable American thirst for oil, and the conquest and subjugation of other nations in futile attempts to satiate it, is brought to you in large part by our land-use patterns

The mayor says something really important about something that's bugged me for a long time: that we force grieving families to relive their trauma over and over again as they lobby elected officials asking them to do the right thing. I am so glad to hear him say those days are over.

“‘No way to prevent this’ says nation where this regularly happens”

The President made a unilateral decision to strike Venezuela and take over the government. His failure to gain congressional authorization or to enunciate a strategy risks entering into yet another long term conflict that fails to deliver on our goals and is contrary to our interests and values.

Some people call this City Walking. 🤣 www.comailab.org/03-164663-fa...

Without exaggeration this is a huge part of how we surrendered the country to the worst humans of all time - the left-of-center’s conviction that you can’t be disrespectful to stupid people to has robbed us of the social censure that forces stupid people to stop being stupid

People want to live more and drive less. Arlington’s metro corridors “comprise only 11% of the county’s land but half of its tax base,” she said. “People want to be near other people,” Cristol said. www.ffxnow.com/2026/01/02/n...

growing older is realizing that the “beans, beans the magical fruit” schoolyard rhyme is not just silly childhood nonsense but is actually a handy mnemonic about the benefits of eating fiber-dense foods

Leave X Tell anyone you know who uses it WHY they need to leave X.

Delivery drivers are getting very annoying. The work for safer streets continues.

Car prices are forcing many drivers to make tough financial decisions — sometimes paying more than the vehicle is worth. https://www.cbsnews.com/philadelphia/news/delaware-county-car-prices-finance/
