That's right. Good on the mayor.

Republicans are pro-cancer.
They have ceased funding cancer research and are lifting limits on carcinogens. This is one of those things the median voter wouldn't believe because it sounds outlandish.
As always, the Pentagon trotting out the 'Your experienced war correspondents on the ground in the war zone just can't see how well this war is going' remains a pretty good indicator that things are not going to plan.
@claireforny.bsky.social, candidate in NY's 7th Congressional district, has issued a transportation platform that does a great job bridging the federal transportation establishment/policy & NYC's needs nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/03/13/c...
Imagine if anthropologists visited a remote village with no grocery store and one restaurant that only served hamburgers and then concluded based on their observations that the villagers prefer hamburgers. That's essentially the discourse surrounding Americans and their relationship to cars.
Someone in NYC should do interviews with middle-school kids who take the subway to and from school every day, to see if they have any advice for Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy who can't seem to go a single day without pissing himself in fear over them.
“And that’s why I keep voting for all of Trump’s appointees.”

He loves transit as a vehicle for concern trolling, which is free
The US DOT Secretary "loves transit," yet hasn't managed to fund a single new transit project in his now >400 days in office www.urban.org/urban-wire/r...
Facts you don't hear from the suburban/NY Post fare evasion caucus
"A new analysis of toll evasion found the amount owed by drivers who don't pay paper toll invoices has more than doubled since 2022, from $147 million in unpaid tolls to nearly $350 million"

The death of organized third places for kids (and adults!) is an underrated problem. Outside of urban academic circles, it doesn't get much attention.
None of this is true, but also... low hotel rates would not be a sign of a booming economy. Quite the opposite!
Another bill that would significantly water down and create massive loopholes in ACE/bus lane enforcement has been introduced. Glad we at least know it exists before it's passed this go around. If you live in AM Taylor's district, voice your concern! @2avesag.as @ridersalliance.org

I am telling you: The ADL is an organization run by a modern day Kapo and they are actively harming American Jews.
The Highway Trust is functionally broke, there’s no consistent dedicated revenue stream for transit … and, uh, this saves like 15c a gallon.
The fossil billionaires who own Congress would never...but neither would DC's mayor 🤔
This is just astonishingly great reporting.
All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them.
And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.
Lol

This is the real anti-Semitism.
Long term too, I suspect.
From DOGE to ICE to Iran, the m.o. is "destroy, baby, destroy"
There Have Been No Approvals for New Transit Projects in the First Year of the Current Trump Administration
For the 1st time in the 1st year of a presidential administration since at least 1993, under Trump 2, the Federal Transit Administration signed 0 new contracts for major transit projects, like subways or light rail.
The US is facing a crisis of rail transit investment: www.urban.org/urban-wire/r...
