I worked on this project as ANC Commissioner. We told planners how critical safe bikeways would be.
@ddotdc.bsky.social has a tough job here with the tight ROW, and bus lanes should remain the priority. But unless other new east-west bikeways are built soon, this would be a HUGE missed opportunity.
It’s 71 and sunny in DC, and Jermaine Eluemunor is staying with the Giants.
I might just cry
Congress must return immediately and vote to put an end to this war.
Every Senator should be on the record—the American people deserve to know which of their leaders supports another potentially bloody and costly war in the Middle East.
No war with Iran.
this is what they said it would be like under socialism
👀The federal judges in West Virginia, where ICE has been pulling over and detaining people on the freeway, are literally screaming about ICE's tactics.
"It is an assault on the constitutional order," Judge Goodwin says. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.
He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.
the fact that they’re taking down and censoring jd vance getting boo’d on twitter lol
I will give Suozzi more credit than he gives himself. He knew what the vote was. He just figured the way to "win" was to support the funding because that's more "centrist" and buck the Democratic majority. But morally, he knew what this was about. He ended up wrong morally AND politically.
Why are you so mad? You vocally supported the sale of TikTok to Trump supporters to censor news out of Gaza. They’re censoring people now — you got what you voted for.

This you?
Literally all of this is a lie. We are about to find out who is state media, because they will be the ones to parrot a justification for state-sanctioned murder.
An off duty local cop in MN, a woman of color, was stopped by ICE and they demanded to see her papers. When she reached to get her phone to record the interaction, an ICE agent knocked it out of her hand.
i think this MLK day the thing to focus on is the strategic focus and tactical brilliance of the civil rights movement and the way it was laser focused on a set of achievable goals
ICE agent was not in the vehicle’s path when he fired at driver, video shows
Good time to remind people that after a white supremacist killed a woman with his car in Charlottesville, the GOP passed a flurry of laws intended to encourage people to run over protesters
We don’t have a complete account of Donald Trump and his family’s finances. But a clear picture has emerged: enrichment of the First Family on a scale that is unprecedented in American history.

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month.
It’s about oil and regime change.
And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.
MAYOR MAMDANI AYYYYY
Facebook, Instagram, X are simply banned in Russia. No US outrage about free speech there—yet the EU is the target. That contrast says a lot.
It turns out that people like being in places without a lot of cars and traffic messing things up.
Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.
This is what frustrates me so much about these articles: Propagating the narrative that large numbers of kids are faking disabilities is just going to result in a world where disabled people are *even more* scrutinized when they ask for accommodations!
Duffy is a completely unserious person who is focusing on this because he has undone all the Airline Passenger Rights enacted under Biden and Buttigieg and he doesn't want people to focus on that. Ironic, of course, because if you're delayed you're going to want some comfy clothes and shoes.
Insane but true fact: making US roads as safe as Canadian, Australian, or European roads would save more lives than eliminating murder from the US.
The Democratic Party would be a lot better if it had embraced Zohran Mamdani the way it's embracing Marjorie Taylor Greene.
mr president sir theres a story coming about how you intervened to help a sex criminal. no sir, not that sex criminal you helped….no not that one either…sir, please stop guessing sex criminals that you helped. ill give you a hint sir, hes a trafficker. no sir, not that trafficker a different one
reminded of eric williams's observation about britain's relationship to its history with slavery. "British historians wrote almost as if Britain had introduced Negro slavery solely for the satisfaction of abolishing it."
A huge amount of state resources intended to fight crime - from the FBI to state and local police to DEA agents to IRS tax enforcement - have been redeployed to immigration enforcement. It is a great time to be a criminal in America.
