Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."
They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

Zohran adding YIMBYs to his transition team is resulting in some absolutely incredible Left NIMBY crashouts over on Twitter. This is my favorite.

Bro I cannot WAIT to see what the first few months of the Mamdani administration brings to NYC’s streets
Our Executive Director, Ben Furnas, has been appointed to Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani's Transition Committee on Transportation, Climate, & Infrastructure!

I refuse to shut up about this: NYC started charging $9 to bring a car into our most transit-rich zone, the haters & trolls predicted doom, but traffic evaporated instantly and here’s Times Square tonite (even after the holiday tourists have left). For a better future, build transit & price driving!

It’s wild how many small businesses in NYC don’t keep their hours up-to-date on the various maps apps 😭

Check out this 1923 transit plan commissioned by the Chicago City Council. We use to be insanely ambitious. A network like this would've supported Paris-level population densities.
It's never too late!

Insane but true fact: making US roads as safe as Canadian, Australian, or European roads would save more lives than eliminating murder from the US.

In her resignation statement, MTG breaks very dramatically with the secret-plan conspiracy theorists about what’s happening in DC.

“trump is ecstatic to meet the muslim socialist immigrant mayor of new york while MAGA’s strongest soldier from georgia-14 resigns in disgust” is a fucking coalition-breaking disaster for the hard right
no, it’s fucking terrible for trump, lol
I don't know if it makes sense to describe what happened today as "good PR". The Fox crowd doesn't seem terribly thrilled about the meeting either.

it is almost as if accommodating and conceding to far right ideas legitimizes them and signals to voters that the far right is a legitimate choice for governance
The Danish Social Democrats are currently on course for their worst election result since at least the Second World War, despite their brand of far-right accommodationism being touted as a blueprint for other centre-left parties.

Anyone else have T-Mobile and feel like it has become completely useless in the subway?
Do people with other networks feel like their service is great? I’m ready to jump ship.

Yet again I am asking - if the A train is running local and absolutely crawling between W 4th St and 59th St in both directions for weekend work (express side is roped off, horns are blaring) - why are these service disruptions not listed in the Weekender?
