the lack of consequences or oversight given just the sheer volume of outright and proven lies from this administration sure is something
Kristi Noem: "No American citizens have been arrested or detained. We focus on those who are here illegally. And anything you would hear or report that would be different than that is simply not true and false reporting."

You know what people (even transit-dependent people) want more than free buses? Faster, more reliable, more frequent buses. You know what doesn't help with that? Cutting funding.
Looks like Rod Dembowski wants to fully restart the debate about whether King County Metro should go fare free.
This morning he suggested a potential fare free pilot, citing the benefits of increased ridership against the relatively low farebox recovery rate Metro currently has.

I spoke to both Senator @vandanaslatter.bsky.social and Insurance Commissioner @pattykuderer-waoic.bsky.social about this issue because I was worried about not just the availability but the insurance coverage. I was glad to hear that our state has our back. ❤️WA
