If your city has free parking then it should have free transit
Revenue raised from parking is orders of magnitude higher than revenue raised from fares, so if your city has free parking then that's the revenue source to advocate for

This is serious, rigorous analysis and it should change the way the media has been covering these protests. These were, in the aggregate, *massive.*
Based on crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don't have data yet, it looks like roughly 4-6 million people protested Trump across the U.S. yesterday. That's nearly 2% of the U.S. pop!
Mobilized anti-Trump resistance is exceeding 2017 levels

"No Kings Day" protests turn out millions
Our unofficial estimate is that around 4 million people attended a protest event yesterday. Anti-Trump resistance is outpacing 2017.

I count 49 news headlines on the NYT mobile app home page right now, not including opinion, sports or cooking. None of them are about the massive protests yesterday.

The district court's opinion partially & temporarily blocking key parts of Trump's executive order on elections is careful, persuasive, and seems very likely to be upheld on appeal, even before this Supreme Court. The key point: Presidents don't have authority to regulate federal elections:
