Good.

I’ve said it before — Trump’s illegal, reckless war in Iran is going to leave lasting damage to the global economy. We will all pay for his incompetence while he cashes in.

All the chat!

Jessica: I love that you read a newspaper. Watters: I read more than you. Financial Times, Wall Street Journal, New York Times, New York Post. Jessica: And you still say this crap on TV after you've read all that?

@yeagermeister.bsky.social and I talk about this and other #RVA Bike events happening on the podcast RVA bike Scene (part of the Mechanics of Transportation podcast family) & on YouTube at IanStewartCycles. (Still editing though)

So far in 2026, Democrats have flipped legislative seats in: Arkansas New Hampshire Texas Florida (today) That adds to their 2025 gains: Dems flipped seats in Iowa, Mississippi, & Pennsylvania specials, plus in New Jersey and Virginia's regular elections. GOP has flipped 0 seats over that period.

Remember, if you’re interested in what REALLY “drives” a lot of regional growth & infrastructure politics, it’s pretty much this. Great drawing via Ian Lockwood.

Some very disturbing questions from the Republican-appointed justices in today's Supreme Court arguments—definitely several votes to strike down laws in 30 states which count mail ballots that arrive shortly after Election Day, as long as they're cast by Election Day. Not what I was hoping to hear.

“People who have walked, biked, or took the bus to school have a reduced probability of being car-dependent today by 12 percentage points. And that experience increases the probability that their children use a sustainable mode by more than 30%.” 🚶🏾‍♂️🚴🏼‍♀️🚌 @thewaroncars.bsky.social

I know you’re going to see this everywhere today but then you should see this everywhere today.

The ruling brought an abrupt halt to the major changes that Mr. Kennedy, who has long been skeptical of vaccines, had set in motion, upending national vaccine policy and making sweeping revisions to the recommendations for what shots are given and when. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/16/h...

What a paragraph. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

"Alicia" shared this pic from Kern County. "The lemon orchard is in bad shape, with no lemons on the trees. They still only pay us $35 per 900 lb box for juice lemons. It takes us 3-4 hours to pick that box. It's wrong. We should at least be guaranteed minimum wage." #WeFeedYou

“I’ll never forgive Trump for the mentality he’s given the people I love.” 💔 Country singer @bryanandrewsmusic.bsky.social talks to Tennessee’s own Trae Crowder & @coreyrforrester.bsky.social about the Trump mentality and small town America, where he was raised

New episode!! @yeagermeister.bsky.social is back to talk races, sweepers and more podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Fox News Sunday aired old footage of a dignified transfer in December instead of video from yesterday’s dignified transfer, where Trump was wearing a hat.

We don’t want war. We want healthcare, a living wage, and affordable housing.

WATCH: Seriously, if you’re following ANY bike-lane debate, you HAVE TO WATCH this news story. You actually can’t make this up. Ford claims without evidence that bike-lanes are bad for small business, and THE ACTUAL BUSINESS ASSOCIATION obliterates him with data. Safe bike-lanes mean business.

You can’t spell dIstRaActioN without Iran.

“I understand why the male hockey players wanted to go … but there should have been comments the next day.” Curler Rich Ruohonen made headlines for speaking out about ICE. He talked with Slate about his statements and the men’s hockey team at the SOTU. Watch in full: www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLlV...

Former ICE lawyer Ryan Schwank: “I received secretive orders to teach new cadets to violate the Constitution.”

The reason we're here is that tens of millions of people will punch a hole in a wall if they hear someone used food stamps to buy soda but they're fine if the right-wing podcaster turned fbi director uses his taxpayer funded private jet to go party whenever he feels like it bsky.app/profile/thed...

Holy shit this cartoon.

New Lakeside cafe will cater to Richmond's Deaf community

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

NEW: Gabbard HID classified intel about a phone call and BLOCKED the whistleblower report about it from Congress. When she finally DID send it over, she redacted it for EXECUTIVE PRIVILEGE. I will speak to the whistleblower's lawyer TODAY at 12 PM PT here: youtube.com/live/P3TvfMI...

BREAKING: The Epstein survivors are releasing this ad on this Super Bowl Sunday to send the message that they will not “move on” from the largest sex trafficking scandal in the world. #standwithsurvivors

Peter Thiel has been open about this for a long time. Trump is a way to break the republic, which can then be replaced by “free economic zones” with oligarchs as dictators and tech as a taskmaster for helpless humans without any rights. (1/2)

Where’s your favorite place to ride in #RVA? Does it match mine or @yeagermeister.bsky.social ?

Why am I not at all surprised?

I can’t stress this enough. The state of 4th Amendment law is that the cops can’t force you to type in a passcode but they can force you to swipe your finger or present your face. Never stop using passcodes/passwords to unlock your devices. And consider additional code to unlock Signal.

There was an email in the Jeffrey Epstein files that someone provided a tip to the FBI that there was a human trafficking operation at 901 East Cary in Richmond, Virginia.

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept." Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here. (clip via MPR and @davidjbier.bsky.social on X)

Footage from the witness in pink who managed to save the footage from ICE coverup. Clearly shows the murder of the man in Minneapolis, Minnesota by Trump regime ICE forces. #3E #GoodVsEvil

Last year a whistleblower said DOGE had illegally accessed a Social Security database. SSA now acknowledges it's true—& that DOGE employees had secret agreement w/ unidentified political advocacy group to use SocSec data to help overturn election results. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

In case the algorithm hasn’t delivered this to you yet, Donald Trump wrote a truly insane message to the Norwegian, Prime Minister, and here it is. The entire Republican Party is still lockstep with this guy.
