Warren is the ranking member on the Senate Banking Committee. Wyden is the same on the Senate Finance Committee. They need to go to the Treasury building with crews from CNN and NBC and demand to be let in. As soon as they're not, hold a press conference right there and explain what DOGE is doing.

"We have a public safety problem, not a transit problem," ATU 587 President Greg Woodfill tells the County Council, telling them they need to more than double the number of transit police to adequately meet the current needs on the system.
The King County Council is holding a special meeting on transit security this morning, with Metro operators speaking about their experience during public comment. You can watch live here:

I was tear-gassed by two Seattle mayors (Schell and Durkan) so I guess now there’s a chance to keep the streak going?

If you see a haphazard train of heavily loaded bikes ridden by slightly nutty folks going through downtown #Seattle sometime, now you know why! Say hi, wave, give us some space (and maybe some grace), and know that you helped a good cause!

Hi new followers-
Several years ago I decided to start documenting how regularly people in my city of Seattle were getting hurt while trying to get around via walking or biking, in as close to real-time as possible.

In response to consistent feedback I'm going to continue on this platform.

Making parking fully flexible for daycares is something any community can do to make families lives easier right now! More daycare openings with no taxpayer money at all. A win-win. 1/

The Urbanist's reporting getting a shout out in this episode has made my day.
We dropped an extra episode today. It's our reaction to the election. Things are tough, but there are some points of hope that can help us make our way forward when it comes to improving transit, making our streets safer, and building more resilient communities.
