"Missing middle" regional rail is the missing link for car-free living. When nonresidents don't need to drive to access the city, there are less opponents of safe streets and more local transit riders. Electrification + through-running allow the same train to serve local and regional riders.
18% of Americans want to go car-free. 40% are open to going car-free. This is in addition to the 10% of Americans who don't drive. Congress needs to match federal transportation policy and funding to this market shift:

You've probably been following the story about fraud in MN. I wrote about the people who provide services who are being driven into bankruptcy, thanks to the Walz' administration decision to hire Optum AI to screen all payments. It's a disaster.

As the state's new anti-fraud screening system went into effect, the Holland Center expected to receive $212,000 in payments. It instead received $22,000, David M. Perry writes. If nothing changes soo...

Trump's threat to bomb Iran made something clear to me in a way I hadn't yet formulated: His conception of US military force, like his conception of the federal govt, is now entirely personalized. It is a power to be wielded not on behalf of US interests but on behalf of his personal whims.

The white supremacist who shot five Black protesters in Minneapolis in 2015 is expected to be released from prison on Monday. Allen ‘Lance’ Scarsella said he went to protests after the police killing of Jamar Clark with hopes he’d “get to” shoot Black protesters specifically. The victims survived.

Daily reminder. Trump and Musk are not rational. They can't be flattered. They can't be managed. They can't be trusted. The assumptions we have taken for granted over the past 80 years are no longer valid. We need to adjust our thinking - quickly.
