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.

for those not keeping track: masked feds, upset about being followed during kidnappings, reportedly swerved their car into martinez's, got out and said, "do something bitch," then unloaded five shots into her before driving off.

feds then charged martinez w/ assault and offered $50k for more info.
New: the govt has moved to dismiss its assault case against Marimar Martinez and Anthony Ian Santos Ruiz, two people accused of "box[ing] in" a Border Patrol vehicle in Chicago on Oct. 4.

One agent shot Martinez, with evidence presented to the court that he later bragged about in text messages.

Officially tied for Denver’s 3rd-latest snow on record, as of today. Most likely won’t get on the board this week.

New: Reuters has tallied job losses, suspensions and investigations stemming from the reaction to Charlie Kirk's Sept. 10 assassination. Its findings: More than 600 Americans have been punished, and the figure is likely to be an under-count.

Respect to the DOTI AB members making this decision. Leaving a post they joined to do good has to be hard.

The Mayor's path of destruction continues as he undermines safety in Denver and Director Ford keeps flailing to defend his shit ideas.

Semi-regular reminder to absolutely politicize my death when I’m killed by a reckless driver. I trust you all to take that opportunity and make the most of it, whether to advocate for more public transit, Vision Zero, or bike lanes

What you see without an OGI camera vs what you see with an OGI camera.

What you are seeing in a plume of methane and VOCs.

You can see how it is so easy for them to ignore the ongoing systemic methane pollution.

This is so offensive I don’t even know where to start.

“Vote blue no matter who and also shut the fuck up when those people betray you.”

Nope.

We will primary every senator who doesn’t call for Schumer to step down in the next 24 hours.

You work for us.
The sooner we get past internal recriminations and back to fighting united, the better off we all are — the likelier our victory next November.

Hey Dems running for office or reelection, you could do worse than starting an 'It's time to Chuck Schumer' campaign. You could fundraise off of #ChuckSchumer and give shirts away that say I Chucked Chuck. Shit like that. You don't need to hire consultants, I'll come up with more hater shit pro bono

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office.

If you're represented by one of the squishier centrists, be sure to make a call. Now.
Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Guys it’s easy to say Dick Cheney should’ve been prosecuted for war crimes. But you’re forgetting one thing. If we start prosecuting people for war crimes, people in the future might get scared about doing war crimes and hesitate before committing war crimes!
