SCHUMER says Democrats are “united” behind three DHS reforms
1/ End roving patrols; tighten the rules on warrants and require ICE to coordinate with local authorities.
2/ Enforce accountability; a uniform code of conduct.
3/ Require masks off, body cameras on, agents carry ID.

This is the best post I've seen on how to talk about transit vs. car infrastructure and their budget allocations.
Car infrastructure is like 200,000,000 of this year's 500,000,000 capital spending plan. Drivers pay $7 million in fees compared to transit riders fees and area rates to pay for transit that recoup something like $70 million.

Proof billionaires are not THAT smart: When you hollow out the middle (having the ultra rich get richer at the expense of a middle class) you get a breakdown in society. Something that will impact them as well.
