Disabled rider with an adaptive bike? The shuttle will accommodate your bike but not you. The public transit alternatives will accommodate you but not your bike.

Council Member Chughtai poking fun at Lydia Millard's war on cars rhetoric. Good to have a council member who supports better transit, sidewalks, and bike infrastructure.
aisha chughtai speaks to supporters afterwards, supporting transit. “there is not a war on cars!”

Andrea Corbin recording herself complaining about not being invited to an event is a lot of fun.
Corbin donated to the GOP in 2024 and currently chairs a PAC spending $600k to defeat the candidates she's complaining to. So yeah maybe those candidates won't invite you to things.

Lydia Millard is an asshole. Defining aspect of
her candidacy is that she will go negative not just generally but with every single thing she says.

The FAIR plan so obviously needs to be capped like yesterday but our leaders don’t want to admit people living in the WUI are uninsurable.
Um. Guys? Problem. Really big problem.
"Exposure for residential dwellings under the FAIR plan has increased from $160 to $558 Billion between 2021-2025."

I still think it's funny that the PAC spending $600k to influence the DFL endorsement process this year, and managed by Frey's 2021 campaign manager, is chaired by 2024 MN GOP donor Andrea Corbin. Big tent for Trumpers on city issues I guess.
are you concerned about republican donors post january 6th having a seat in DFL conventions? www.protectourparty.org
Protect Our Party | Minneapolis
We believe in a big tent. We welcome independents and former Republicans who have rejected the extremism of today’s GOP. But to protect the integrity of our party, we must draw a clear line: those who continue to support Republican candidates—or the politicians who enable Trump and his agenda—especially after January 6th, should not be selecting who our DFL endorsed candidates are.

Like a lot of things this is downstream of weak state/strong corporate power. CA has struggled to force a ZE transition in the logistics sector, but it's easier to impose mandates on the public sector, so transit agencies are forced to test emerging tech for the heavy duty trucks, riders be damned.
Just asked a California transit manager if the state's Zero Emission Bus mandate is causing them to run less service than they otherwise would.
He said: "Yes, definitely."
A diesel bus only has to get 4 ppl out of cars to be better for the planet than an electric bus.
Hmm.

The DFL endorsement in Ward 7 won't mean much if rank&file DFLers chart out & make their neighbors aware of the sheer amount of dollars & labor Schaeffer's delegates today have contributed to police, corporate & openly Republican interests

What I’ve learned during the last two weeks of DFL conventions:
Republicans welcome. Left-wing members of the left-wing party need not apply.

🧵Lots of things bothered me today about W7 but one in particular to get off my chest was Shaffer’s derogatory comment about renters jumping from building to building to building every year. Awful attitude in a >65% renter ward 🧵 (1/7)

here’s the thing, this is Shaffer’s peak, this room & this crowd and we now have it on record and video. today’s ward 7 behavior was truly disgusting.
there needs to be a massive labor collation knocking doors for Cashmen. it is time to rise up and show what the L in the DFL can & needs to do.

This was really where Shaffer had her finger most closely on the pulse of about 55% of Ward 7 delegates: they truly feel they’re being vilified for being wealthy and they probably think the rest of us should be thankful for them.
I heard so many people in the auditorium parroting lies from AoM/WLM

When Shaffer gave a shout out to businesses being vilified I thought the roof would come off. Ward 7 delegates loved it.

I shouldn't be surprised. Yet, I am
I thought it was a given that transpo costs as a % of household expenses would be higher for lower incomes, just like housing, food, etc.
But no! Data shows, when cities are built well (i.e. compact, walkable, transit-rich), low income ppl spend less on transpo!

It feels to me like some folks see Bill as a class traitor for supporting the pro-renter, labor-endorsed candidate. & they were sure to let him know. It was absolutely wild to see people get physical with him at the convention. This from the folks who say they care The Most about public safety.
they have been provoking bill all day. someone invoked his late father
