how does a story like this even get written? I assumed there was gonna be some BS "neighbors for responsible micromobility" group as the catalyst for this story, but it's literally someone just saying "I saw a beer can by the scooters" vancouversun.com/news/east-va...

But on demand transit is the future...right?
Reported by @techcrunch.com
What worries me- what happens to those of us who rely on transit in the communities that have been convinced to abandon fixed route systems because Via is the future. And if Via can't make the math work, then what?
Via had its first earnings since it became a publicly traded company, and, welp, it lost money. The tech transit software company reported a loss of $36.9 million in its third quarter, a 73% increase since the same period last year. Its revenue grew to $713 million, an 11% increase YoY.

A single finger salute from the fourth ICE flight of the last seven days here at MSP. Today's flight was operated by Global Crossing's N966AD, and handled by Signature Aviation, who for some reason, has removed branding from their air-stairs.

The guy who sexually assaulted 80+ women, including multiple acts of extreme violence, got a major legacy media’s news division to drop covering it by threatening to reveal its lead personality’s history of workplace sexual misconduct har har har you probably heard about what happened to them
[531 In the 2019 book Catch and Kill: Lies, Spies, and a Conspiracy to Protect Predators, Ronan Farrow cited multiple sources who stated that NBC News was not only aware of Lauer's misconduct beforehand, but that Harvey Weinstein used this knowledge to pressure the program into killing a story that would have outed his own sexual assaults. 54][551 Variety reported allegations by at least ten of Lauer's current and former colleagues. 56] Additional accusations went public in the ensuing days. 1571 1581 NBC acknowledged three additional cases from 2000 to 2007.

Pundits: Why didn't Kamala Harris run to the center on immigration?

Kamala Harris's campaign speeches:
Last year, Joe and I brought together Democrats and conservative Republicans to write the strongest border bill in decades. The Border Patrol endorsed it. But Donald Trump believes a border deal would hurt his campaign. So he ordered his allies in Congress to kill the deal. Well, I refuse to play politics with our security. Here is my pledge to you: As President, I will bring back the bipartisan border security bill that he killed. And I will sign it into law. I know we can live up to our proud heritage as a nation of immigrants- And reform our broken immigration system. We can create an earned pathway to citizenship- And secure our border. America, we must also be steadfast in advancing our security and our values abroad. Harris: So, in this campaign, I will proudly put my record against his any day of the week (applause) any day of the week, including, for example, on the issue of immigration. So, I was the attorney general of a border state. In that job, I walked underground tunnels between the United States and Mexico on that border with law enforcement officers. I went after transnational gangs, drug cartels, and human traffickers that came into our country illegally. I prosecuted them in case after case, and I won.

I went after transnational gangs, drug cartels, and human traffickers that came into our country illegally. I prosecuted them in case after case, and I won. Donald Trump (applause) Donald Trump, on the other hand, has been talking a big game about securing our border, but he does not walk the walk (applause) or as my friend Quavo would say, he does not walk it like he talks it. (Applause.) Where's Quavo? (Laughs.) So, look, our administration worked on the most significant border security bill in decades. Some of the most conservative Republicans in Washington, D.C., supported the bill. Even the Border Patrol endorsed it. It was all set to pass. But at the last minute, Trump directed his allies in the Senate to vote it down.

You can distinguish this article from the fearmongering Free Beacon story (among others) because it has named sources who are either members or representatives of known factions.
“You’re not going to find a foot cop who says I’m leaving because of this mayor,” said Derby St. Fort, a captain who retired in August. “I don’t buy that. The foot cop is leaving because of how he’s treated internally within the job. He’s more worried about how his direct supervisor treats him.” As officers across the five boroughs readied themselves for Mr. Mamdani’s inauguration and with it, the dawn of a new era in New York, the more than dozen The New York Times spoke with stressed that the everyday pressures on the police tended to be far removed from mayoral politics. “Police officers aren’t worrying about all of the overly dramatic rumors and predictions,” said Patrick Hendry, the president of the Police Benevolent Association. “They’re worrying whether they’re going to miss another family event because their command is short staffed. They’re worried about getting home safe at the end of their tour.” Sergeant Lohman, the officer who criticized the memes about Mr. Mamdani, said in a message explaining his post that the first priority was to “protect and serve everyone.” “Like him or not, he’s our boss,” he said. “And we should all be unified for the greater good of the city.”
