We need a constitutional amendment for a voters bill of rights. Ban gerrymandering. Break up party dominance through instant runoff voting. Require streamlined voter registration, including ability to get copies of documents required for registration.

He is declaring war on the U.S.A. not just certain cities. If another country attacked Chicago, would we say they are at war with Chicago? No! TRUMP IS A TRAITOR. #TrumpOutNOW

A minor Nazi functionary (Big Balls) is assaulted by teenagers, so the dictator (Trump) assigns an armed SS brigade (WV National Guard) to quell the locals (DC citizens).

Now read it without the parentheticals.

Yeah.

If you're about to post something mean about Andrew Cuomo, I urge you to pause, take a deep breath, and think of something even meaner.
i think cuomo did well considering he couldn’t campaign while the sun was up

Bad business idea: Chiapotle. Mexican fusion restaurant where every recipe includes chia seeds.

Great session on food halls at the #NJPRC25
So many opportunities, yet no movement in NJ. Time for the state to step up.

Good to see new housing coming to Brooklyn. New supply is needed to help bring down housing costs.

Such a stupid idea to cram more cars into the same 2 lane tunnel into the city. It’s time to focus on transit and help JC repair the tear in the city caused by all of this tunnel traffic.

There’s more than one way to create a liveable city.

What Dutch cities like Utrecht have accomplished through cycling, Swiss cities like Zürich have through public transport: 1.4 tram rides per resident per day, representing 65% of all journeys; and cars just 17%.

These are simply means, not ends.

These trade wars are getting unhinged. I’m sure it’s best if used by the country of origin, but it’s tasty, so I’m going to eat it in the US.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.
