🚨NYC is showing us how it’s done! ✊🏼 1/2
This sums it up perfectly: “Let’s play to win, rather than playing not to lose,” he said. “And I think playing the win here means going for a full BAT scenario, rather than in the reduced scenario that was proposed in that memo.” JT Flowers
"When 50 emails show up in my inbox Monday morning, I know something has happened. I know this is a little bit blunt... But without assigning blame, what happened?" - Robert Kellogg, TriMet board member

Oh my God!!! If y’all haven’t already been boycotting Home Depot, now’s a good time to start!!!
For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.
The article I posted doesn’t have a paywall
@fischer.bsky.social is it ok to write out my testimony and read from it?
He most definitely didn’t!
Reminder, this is tonight!!!
super important for people to turn out as much as possible in support of BAT lanes in the coming weeks because this is not settled yet. if you want to join the DSA in testifying, wear red to the 82nd ave CAC meeting at 6pm on wednesday at PCC southeast trimet.org/82nd/cac.htm
Community Advisory Committee
The CAC serves an important role in representing our community and will provide feedback to the project’s decision makers.

frankly i don't give a fuck what the owner of two car washes thinks would be best for the future of 82nd avenue. it's not his avenue and he can pound sand
Bus drivers are massively under appreciated! One of my best friends is a @trimet.org driver and she has lots of crazy, heroic and scary stories... The amount of experience, knowledge, street smarts, people skills etc they need to know and be able to draw on in an instant is incredible! #Heroes

Our Trimet bus drivers truly are the unsung heroes of our community and I feel extra compelled to share my appreciation because of what I saw on my ride home tonight.
OMG YES!!! 🐸🤘💪
someone has projected a froggy gadsden flag that says “don’t tread on portland” onto the side of the building

Now: @merkley.senate.gov is five hours into a floor speech in the US Senate, protesting Trump's threats to Democracy.

Standing up to the
Worst "President" Ever.
I love this ❤️
just got home from a public meeting that was split on a vote between

a. no bike lane protection
b. concrete traffic seperator protection
and
c. shared use path

I can't stress enough how good it felt to hear the discussion was between the *types* of protection, not if it should be there.

This is the scene at the Portland ICE facility right now where the Trump admin wants to send hundreds of National Guard troops to protect federal workers and property.
Or maybe they’ll be put on garbage pick up duty!
