I'm not sure who would do it, but now would be a great time for a Democrat or group of them to do a launch a big "immigration is good for the country" campaign with a speech with the Statue of Liberty in the background.
Gallup has new polling on immigration. Topline findings:
-Americans hate Trump's immigration policy (35% approve, 62% disapprove)
-Share who say immigration is a "good thing" for the country just hit an all-time high (79%)

As we’re seeing, being afraid to speak out and keeping your mouth shut doesn’t stop the fascists from coming after you. Universities thought they could keep their heads down or placate the right by going after student protesters and it got them worse than nowhere.

A million cars have disappeared!
“Congestion pricing [in New York City] began on January 5. One month in, traffic is down, public buses are faster, and transit ridership is up.” Via @fastcompany
No surprise for those of us championing decongestion pricing for a long time. We know it works.

Democrats need to learn how to treat real scandals with the same intensity and seriousness that Republicans use on bullshit like Hillary's emails and Hunter's laptop. Non-stop circus. Run shifts outside treasury, someone there 24/7. Make them prove they're not breaking the law.
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.

“While Mayor, I was often asked ‘how have you been able to afford bike-lanes in #Copenhagen?’ I’d reply, ‘how have you been able to NOT afford it? 25 years ago we were a few days away from going bankrupt. So the city invested in the cheapest infrastructure… bicycling.’” — @mortenkabell.bsky.social

Early data post decongestion pricing show a moderate dip in total vehicular volumes equates to an exponentially positive impact in travel time savings and crash/injury reduction.
Win-win-win.

If you want to drive in our densest, most transit-rich environments and cause pollution, congestion, and safety hazards, that’s fine, but you’ll have to pay and if that upsets you well so it goes. Drivers have had it their way for a century at the literal expense of everyone.
