NANCY PELOSI: We must find the next generation of Democratic leadership. Young, charismatic and exciting candidates who can energize the party. People that voters love because they're not 80 years old and sold out to big capital.

Everyone at this network and the people they represent would lose their minds at the suggestion we have anything to learn from Europe in terms of walkability, bikeability, transit access or even universal healthcare. Much easier to say it must be something about the food.

AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care?

There’s nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.

Socialism is what they called public power. 

Socialism is what they called social security. 
 
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
 
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

"The city’s 311 collects information about how many people call about what is called ‘excessive car-honking. And the number of complaints about excessive car-honking in January and February was 70 percent lower than last January and February. I just love that, because it’s all-in-one."
How Well Is Congestion Pricing Doing? Very.
One hundred days in, honking is down; bus speeds are up.

Wilfried Nancy and the Columbus Crew are absolutely elite at building freedom and improvisation out of a well-drilled structure. It's spectacular to watch.

Hey New York Times and Mayor Adams: in what world is a speeding driver with a suspended license killing three people an ACCIDENT? It's not an "accident," it's a result of terrible choices made by her and the political system that allows her to keep driving: www.nytimes.com/2025/03/29/n...

The victims were walking Saturday on the border of the Gravesend and Midwood neighborhoods when two cars collided and one veered into their path, the police said.

With its 2-1 victory over D.C. United, the Columbus Crew (3-0-3) extended its season-opening unbeaten streak to six matches, which is tied for the second-longest, season-opening undefeated streak in club history (eight, 2010).

Walkable neighborhoods are the best. Refuse to move someplace again where this wouldn't be true.
I CANNOT stress how much having a friend and a bar both within walking distance might just be the ultimate key to personal happiness.

Flashback Friday pic reminds us that we are playing one of the originals and a fanbase that we and many, many others supported during the tough times 🤝

Now that they not only were saved, but are now thriving - we can raise a toast together at Saturday’s tailgate 🍻

All are Welcome!
