Trump is the softest president on crime we have ever had.

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

Having ridden about 15 miles today from Berkeley to patronize stores in Downtown Oakland, east Oakland, and Temescal for food products that just aren't sold in Berkeley, I can tell you, with authority, that eBikes are not the problem. Car drivers are the problem. So much crazy car driving.

<<taps sign>> Harming someone and demanding gratitude for it is what abusers do.

medical miracle: this 75 year old man was born yesterday

The thing about bike infra is that it's so comically inexpensive that you can build gorgeous stuff like this for a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent of what it costs to build infra for cars

how we got here

“I’ve never protested before - but I just watched 4th & 5th grade kids run away from our own government.” 😕🇺🇸💔 (From @crindivisible.bsky.social )

Bollards save lives. End of story. #WorldBollardAssociation

Of course, said anyone with even the slightest bit of common sense: A year in, it’s official: Americans, not foreigners, are paying for Trump’s tariffs….

Anderson Cooper: “So it's more expensive to have a chronically homeless person living on the streets than it is to actually subsidize an apartment for them?” Answer: “Yes, we’re paying more as taxpayers to walk past that person on the street and do nothing…” #HousingFirst

You've got your traffic right when the sound of birds and people talking is louder than rush hour traffic!

Trump's lusty obsession with coal can be traced back to when he was told it is excavated by minors.

I know 1 thing for certain. A Kamala Harris appointed AG would not start talking about stock numbers when asked about the Epstein files.

So my prescription is now paying me $123?

AOC: We all saw the performance Bondi had. She was screaming and crashing, and I think it’s because she knows she is implicated in a massive cover-up to protect a ring of pedophiles through:

Great idea!

BREAKING: Pam Bondi appears to have just committed a federal crime by lying under oath. Ted lieu just caught her in a lie and called for her resignation live on TV.

Goldman to Lyons: "You said in your opening statement that references to ICE as 'the Gestapo' or 'secret police' encourages threats against ICE agents. The problem is you have it backwards. People are simply making valid observations about your tactics, which are un-American and outright fascist."

This kind of smart, walkable, mixed-use urbanism is illegal to build in most American cities.

That's rude behavior. Shouldn't be riding on the sidewalk. But forcing people currently on ebikes to drive cars instead, which kill literally 1000x more people is terrible public health policy.

Where is the outrage over cars, which are faaaaaaar more likely to hit you, and to kill you. They are the actual problem.

We'll do everything but strictly regulate motorists operating multi-ton machines while scrolling Facebook on their phones with a 12 speaker sound system blaring.

President Epstein is a role model for kids growing up today and this is the vile, racist and abusive person he is.

That would make him the main character.

Heads are going to explode 💥 Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third. All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit. 1/3

For those keeping score at home:

The entire press corps should walk out, not come back, & we simply shouldn’t tolerate this. Months of “Joe Biden won’t do a press conference.” A nonstop national story. Same with Harris in Aug/Sep 2024 & interviews. Trump does this stuff & everyone shrugs. It’s appalling.

Insane messaging in this political environment. It's like Trump & Republicans are trying to create a Democratic realignment by intentionally pissing off voters who are angry at their governance.

Three rules in FBI firearm training: 1. Always point your weapon downrange 2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot 3. Don’t put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you don’t like

👇👇👇👇

Absolutely disgusting.

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people. But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

"Who's city is it Chief? Bovino: "It's our fucking city." And that, in a nutshell, is the problem. It is not a democracy when men with guns and uniforms believe they have more control over a city than its residents.

Seems like a good video for his trial

Build it and they will come. By giving people the option to comfortably and safely get around by bike it becomes a viable choice. It's amazing to see more and more places transforming in this direction.

Therapist: Tell me something you do like. Me: I like going on bike rides. Therapist: I meant when you are not riding bikes. Me: Oh, ya I don’t like doing that.

An ICE agent attempted to enter the Ecuadorian Consulate in Minneapolis, threatening the staff member who prevented him from entering. Hello? ICE is so out of control that its agents think they can break international law. Congress needs to rein them in yesterday.

He’s shaken because 5 women asked for his credentials…imagine ICE asking you for your papers…
