Start congestion pricing

To imagine what real coverage of Trump's mental unfitness might look like, I took 10 real Biden age headlines and rewrote them around Trump's unfitness for the presidency. Read them below; the effect is striking. Why don't we see saturation like this? 6/ newrepublic.com/article/185622…

I am so sick of a system that allows a handful of entitled cranks with a lot of time on their hands to undermine and block transportation and housing for everyone else. These loudmouths are vastly outnumbered by people who live in apartments and ride the bus. Ignore them.

America has a killer-car problem. Its roads are nearly twice as dangerous as the rich-world average. It doesn’t have to be that way econ.st/4eaTYGq

I’m a driver. I drive in bus only lanes every chance I get, I stop in virtually every bus zone I see, and I am absolutely ecstatic whenever I hear a car gets ticketed for it. Because I drive the bus. Wish you had interviewed a transit operator, we could explain why this is just.

It costs $0 to not drive or park in a bus lane

When it's $2 bus fare evasion, local news runs stories saying illegal behavior is "out of control" When it's Lexus drivers blocking hundreds of thousands of working class DMVers from getting to work on time, local news runs stories saying enforcement is "out of control" 🤔🚩

A few rich, old, and angry Upper West Siders are fighting a plan to add a bus lane in the neighborhood that would benefit 15,000 DAILY riders. If you want to understand local NYC politics in a nutshell, this is it. This is how our city "works." gothamist.com/news/yet-anoth…

Adams’ legacy so far is just the endless chaos of budget cuts, poor governance and corruption scandals. New Yorkers deserve better… so much better!

oh my god shut up

Eric Adams had a closed-door meeting with opponents of Vanderbilt Avenue open streets and the Underhill bike boulevard. He’s having an RSVP-only meeting about this on Monday. I expect he’s gearing up to kill these two forward-looking and successful street use programs.

I’m so done with this man

Eric Adams IS the “Get Stuff Done” mayor, the “stuff” is just corruption, not bus lanes

Local tv news is full of stories about how motorists are the only people who count as human. The blowback in the comments is heartening.

The curb is adjusted!? They just move the curb without 87 community meetings and 14 city agencies fighting each other for 15 years? What kind of witchcraft is this

BIG NEWS in the legal fight to reinstate congestion pricing. There is officially a court date. On September 27, attorneys representing both sides will present their arguments before a judge in the Riders Alliance v. Hochul and City Club of New York v. Hochul cases.

Thinking lately how the leadership of basically every Euro city has figured out that pedestrianizing the center w/ high-quality materials & keeping those streets clean is a giant 24/7 billboard telling people YOUR LEADERSHIP IS COMPETENT—yet no American mayor will do the same lol

Tennis player bios are either like “he is the son of immigrants and his parents worked five minimum-wage jobs to give him tennis lessons” or “his dad is the 13th-richest man in the world” lmaooo

Cut this stupid shit and fix your trains
