And here is one dumb thing: If you are driving a car, you ALSO want transit to run better and be safer because that gets more cars off the road and you have fewer of them to deal with
When you’re riding public transit you realize that what’s good for everybody is also good for you. If the bus runs faster, if the train is cleaner, if the AC works, we all benefit
when you’re driving a car, every other car on the road is your personal enemy

The Times parsed the vote using similar categories and again found that the single most determinative factor economic-like factor in the election was "commute by transit" vs "commute by car." It edged out renters vs. homeowners. There's still outstanding data but I expect these trends will hold.

Note: This is me — I asked this question.
You’ll hear me say “yes you have” here — because Johnson was already *directly asked* about one of these instances (when the Presbyterian minister was shot in the head with a pepper ball) in one of earlier shutdown press conferences.

Q: Just last week a minister was shot directly in the face with a pepper round by a DHS agent that left his face bloodied. Are you concerned that this is a religious freedom issue?
MIKE JOHNSON: I can't comment on any of those instances. I haven't seen or heard any of those videos

Want to see how far right the Republican Party has gone?
Watch George H. W. Bush and Ronald Reagan answer a question about illegal immigration during a 1980 debate.
They wouldn’t even be allowed in today’s Republican Party.

Obama sharing a video of himself wearing a crown and flying a King Obama jet that dumped shit all over Americans would have been the only thing the news networks talked about for weeks.
Meanwhile, Trump doing that very thing couldn't even warrant a discussion on the Sunday shows today.

Final: Brewers 3, Cubs 1
The Taylor catch. The Grisham boot. The Freeman homer. The Dbacks snake attack. Alonso off off Williams. It’s in the past now. The Brewers’ regular season success finally leads to a playoff series win. They beat the Cubs. Milwaukee is onto the NLCS.

Donald Trump is not a king — and his administration is not above the law.
Today, the court confirmed what we all know: there is no credible evidence of a rebellion in the state of Illinois.
And no place for the National Guard in the streets of American cities like Chicago.

Vaughn homered. Then Contreras did. Then Chourio. In between, Jacob Misiorowski absolutely delivered on the biggest stage of his life. The bullpen dominated down the stretch.
Series: Brewers lead, 2-0

Seriously, read this statement they launched on day one of the administration and see how long you can make it before you feel like you're going insane.

Again, very strange to have US leaders bragging about war crimes on TV — especially since Vance’s unfunny joke is basically “we base our air strikes on such sketchy intel that we can’t figure out who is a fisherman and who is a drug smuggler,” which does appear to be true, BTW.
