The sharp high income-low income border running N-S through Edgewater and Uptown just east of the lake is Broadway.
That's the context for the furor over the Broadway rezoning, which has come 90% from the dark blue tracts

41 miles of new subway for the cost of free buses. Here’s an audacious, expansive plan to expand the subway’s reach & catalyze housing to attack the affordability crisis. An incredible effort from NYU Marron team. Excited for this to be out in the world:

This is not ok.
A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

On this Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember and honor the six million Jewish lives and countless others murdered by the Nazi regime.
Today and every day, it’s on us to not only reflect but act to confront antisemitism and combat hate in all its forms.
Never again.

UPDATE: After seeing this video, I informed ICE of my intent to visit the Baltimore facility today. I was told I would be denied entry.
It’s clear Trump's ICE would rather engage in a cover up. I will not stop pressing until we get answers. We need transparency & accountability.

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered “highly trained.”
The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.

Beyond helping establish DHS itself in 2003, Mr. Mitnick was a senate-confirmed Trump choice for General Counsel for DHS in his first term. I've talked with him a few times, and he's not a man for hyperbole. So bear that in mind when you see him calling out DHS's "lawlessness, fascism, and cruelty."

an administration staffed to the top with degenerate liars
Noem lies shamelessly: "An individual approached order Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic gun. The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently. This looks like a situation where an individual arrived to inflict maximum damage and kill law enforcement"

What's in a name? Plenty, when that name is 'Trump.'
'Toponymic narcissism' describes someone's obsession with naming things after themselves. Trump's name now seems to be everywhere.

Israeli forces just killed 3 more journalists.
They were on assignment to film a camp in Gaza, to document the plight of Palestinians displaced by Israeli bombs.
