Fascinating update on Metro Transit's aBRT program, with ridership trends and the list of corridors advancing to the next planning stage.

Oh, by the way, I wrote in @thenation.com about how Trump is condeming millions of Americans to hunger this Thanksigiving with his accelarated timeline of adding work requirements for SNAP benefits.
I also discussed how work requirements provably don't work, for the neoliberals in your life.

I wrote in february that the administration had an apartheid refugee policy. As usual though in this business it's better to be wrong in a way that powerful people like rather than right in a way they don't. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

A Bronx family lived without utilities for over 6 weeks after they were shut off without explanation.

The landlord, despite receiving severe violation notices, didn't fix the problem.

HPD couldn’t turn the utilities back on, so it issued the family a vacate order.

This is NOT a joke.

At the #STATSummit, we asked Rochelle Walensky:"What are you most worried about for the next decade in science and medicine?"

Listen to how casually Justice Gorsuch presents as fact the idea that remedying racial gerrymandering requires racial discrimination.

I very much appreciated this conversation and time to remind folks both of Andrew Cuomo’s abuses of power and Zohran Mamdani’s agenda for New York

Is It Cool to Say “I Love Hitler”? The Republican Party Is Trying to Decide.

NBC News has reportedly eliminated its NBC BLK, NBC Asian America, NBC Latino and NBC OUT teams

This Supreme Court case in Louisiana is about one thing, and one thing only: reinstituting Jim Crow by way of ensuring that Black Americans are taxed without receiving representation in Congress.

Everything else is noise and bluster.

This stolen Supreme Court is going to send us back to the 1860s.

I’m one of many who say emphatically that when it comes to the safe, protected bike & active transport infrastructure our cities need, paint isn’t infrastructure.

It’s a true statement where vulnerable people are surrounded by unsafe vehicles.

But painted bus-only lanes?

Smart & transformative.

If Garbage can't really afford to tour any more, and are warning that smaller bands REALLY can't... Where is the music industry gonna go?

"The central premise of the VRA was that federal officials in both exec and judicial branches could be trusted to pursue the goal of racial equality in elections — without regard to which political party would benefit. It is tough to argue that this still holds today." www.vox.com/politics/464...

I’ll admit that I am weird enough to want my taxes to pay for education help for disabled kids in America,

Keep it up, folks!

Hatch Act, Posse Comitatus ... what other federal laws are just kind of not a thing anymore?

Well that didn't last long.

Another reminder that a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users.

ALL ROAD USERS.

And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all.

For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them.
