Report Shows Bike Lane Initiative Positively Impacting Traffic In Boston.

honestly I think that we should pass a law denying the protection of any federal law to anyone who received a pardon from Trump. nothing done to them by any other person should be criminal.

Catholics represent fewer than 20% of U.S. adults, however, they make up 61% of the population at risk of deportation. Trump’s immigration crackdown is disproportionately hitting Catholic communities. chico.newsreview.com/2025/12/24/t...

A small (personal) example of this book’s intellectual dishonesty: My father-in-law is reading In Covid’s Wake, and excitedly told me he found a passage where I’m quoted. The quote in question is me saying the FBI worked to censor speech on social media. Huh? When did I say that?!

Miller imagines himself as Beria but he's really Yezhov. It's a meaningless distinction at the end though.

The #1 movie when you were 10 years old is how your 2026 is going to go.

The Seahawks look like dung beetles.

I'm so old I remember when the Supreme Court undermined nearly 30 years of internet law precedent to permit state action mandated prior restraint because of national security concerns with Tiktok data collection. But I guess those were the old days...like way back (checks notes)...in..um...January?

Once again a reminder: We can have trans rights, bodily autonomy, gender nonconformity, and freedom of expression, or we can have none of these things. There’s no third option.

Looking forward to the Chinese blockade on internet traffic until we give it back to them.

Our new golden age of free speech, where opposition to immigration enforcement can trigger a federal investigation

WTF? ICE is arguing in court that US CITIZENS can be detained, handcuffed, and biometrically screened unless they can prove citizenship on the spot. And that a REAL ID isn't enough. This isn't border security.

ICE is going after people who commit fewer crimes than U.S. born citizens. They're robbing people, hurting people, using racial profiling, violating due process, hurting children, and going after American citizens while they do. This is an illegal criminal enterprise from head to toe.

The 4th amendment is no longer functional.

I recall that over a decade ago, @barackobama.bsky.social put out a vaguely favorable statement regarding net neutrality, and the Ajit Pai/Brendan Carr folks in the FCC absolutely lost their minds, screaming "WE'RE AN INDEPENDENT AGENCY, HOW DARE HE TRY TO INFLUENCE US."

Massive defeat for Mike Johnson. Still has to clear the senate, but this is what Dems wanted all along. Johnson has essentially lost control of the gavel after Epstein and now this. Weakest speaker in history.

President currently feuding with a beloved American comedy icon who was murdered 24 hours ago.

A Christmas Carol is a story about how children suffer and die from treatable illnesses because the wealthy choose to keep them in poverty. It also correctly notes that the only thing a rich bastard fears is the inevitably of death. It even has Muppets in it. Truly Dickens' most timeless work.

It hasn't even been twelve hours, but all three of us have been overwhelmed with requests from media for comment and I'm mostly writing this now so they'll leave me alone.

This fucking piece of shit. The worst man alive.

this is one of the most psychotic things Trump has ever posted

what trump is doing to the somali-american community is deplorable.

Extraordinary courage from Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim, 43-year-old father of two, who bravely risked his life to save his neighbors celebrating Hanukkah. Praying for his full & speedy recovery. And so deeply inspired by his example.

Absolutely insane UX on Win11 where I press 'start' type 'gdrive' see it highlighted in the menu press enter and get 'Microsoft Edge loading a bing search for gdrive' instead of the actually app called gdrive installed on my machine. Diabolical.

WOW; a DEEPLY corrupt move by the immigration courts; clear collaboration with Trump admin officials to produce a specific result with zero notice to the party and ALSO in a situation where the judge facially lacks jurisdiction; the judge had denied a motion to reopen and the case is on appeal.

Bove has also—after being sworn in as a judge on the Third Circuit—been observed visiting Main Justice for consultations with Bondi and Blanche. Grossly unethical conduct.

SCOOP — Gregg Phillips, a conspiracy theorist with no emergency management experience who helped produce the election-denying documentary ‘2000 Mules’ with Dinesh D’Souza and has faced numerous legal inquiries, has been named head of FEMA’s Office of Response and Recovery. My story:

This dude straight up thinks human intelligence should not be used to preserve life. It's perverse and an attitude that should be shameful to express.

This is the Tufts PhD student who seized by masked agents on the street and jailed for two months because she wrote an op-ed calling for the school to divest from Israel.

Actually, the op-ed was more, "We four undersigned want the Tufts Administration to take seriously the opinions and interests of the Tufts studentry and engage with us on the matter of Israel's Gaza genocide and our school's response to it." It was that tame. And MAGA still found fault with it.

Blah bling blah blee!

Why am I not surprised? NPS has made Trump's birthday a free admission day, while deleting MLK Day and Juneteenth.

As the mom of a five-year-old reading this and imagining what this family is going through made me physically ill. Unimaginable evil is being perpetrated before our eyes and with our tax dollars.

Bodega Pistachio Baklava was totally passable.

Someone has already helpfully updated the Wikipedia page for Bradley.

Let's put these 2 headlines from this afternoon together. They “finish off” suspected cocaine traffickers hanging helplessly off boats in the open ocean. But an _actual_ cocaine trafficker who just happens to be a conservative political elite gets a pardon.

"No War for Oil" is apparently a phrase Rep. Salazar is unfamiliar with.

The latest evaluation of bike lane projects in Boston continues to show that if you build bike infrastructure, people will use it. Full report: www.boston.gov/sites/defaul...

This is fu*king outrageous! The federal government on Saturday dismissed charges against a Utah plastic surgeon accused of throwing away COVID-19 vaccines, giving children saline shots instead of the vaccine and selling faked vaccination cards. apnews.com/article/utah...

ICE agents in Queens, New York break down a bedroom door and point guns at a mother & her four US citizen children They dragged the mother out by her hair while yelling at the kids to “put your hands up, stupid!” This is tyranny These kids are traumatized It was warrantless and no ID was shown.

NEW: Evanston has released video + reports surrounding a 10/31 incident where a CBP agent threatened to shoot people + another beat a handcuffed man. We found some disturbing X posts from one of the feds, also seen in other viral videos. His name is Timothy Donahue, and it's now public record:

To recap: My law firm represented Black and Latino voters in striking down Texas' new congressional map. The dissenting opinion mentions George Soros 17 times and me and my law firm 3 times (all about how connected to Soros I allegedly am). I have never seen anything like it.

Eleventh Circuit throws out Trump's suit against CNN in a per curiam unpublished ruling. Meaning Trump's arguments were totally meritless, not even worthy of a published opinion. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

RFK Jr. Is killing babies with his incompetence.

I mean jesus christ, it was not that long ago that "papers please" was damn near universally accepted as a 2-word shorthand for the kind of oppressive society that we beat our chests over being better than
