Highway widening doesn’t solve congestion—it makes it worse. Real solutions involve investing in affordable housing near jobs and better public transit. Transform is leading the fight for smarter, sustainable transportation.

I mean, there is no war in Portland. There just isn’t. You can’t & won’t avoid reporting this story. But you’ll still find a way to try to report it in a way that gives him the benefit of the doubt.
And that’s wrong.

Remember when Sen. Cassidy from Louisiana, a physician himself, struggled to confirm RFK Jr? In the end he voted to confirm him with the assurance RFK Jr would NOT undermine the federal vaccination program and would consult with him on HHS matters. He’s done none of that. 😡

I'm watching a town hall with a man in his 70s in Iowa saying he was there when we were told computer jobs would replace our manufacturing and other jobs and give us more time off and more money.
In that same time $75 trillion dollars flowed from the working class to the one percent.
They lied.
