Safer roads for all users should be a federal priority and convenience for cars should not come at the expense of bicyclist’s lives.

My daughter Robyn was killed and Rachel injured bicycling because of unsafe infrastructure bicycle lanes.

America is here: President fires statisticians because he does not like the data. Trump has followed the authoritarian roadmap to a tee.

Looks like we’re going to start cooking the jobs data along with the inflation data. Project 2025 already laid the groundwork to this outcome.

Good luck America.

Sad state of affairs
The news media gave more coverage to the idea Tim Walz retiring from the National Guard after 20 years was scandalous than to Trump's promise to destroy the department of education

Mahmoud Khalil is a U.S. permanent resident who was arrested, disappeared into the immigration system, and is now being stripped of his status—for protesting. This is political persecution, not law enforcement. If we let this happen, it won’t stop here.

My God: they are selling off federal buildings and no longer planning on collecting revenues.
Again, none of this is about efficiency. I know the IRS is not popular, but for every dollar invested it generates about $7 in returns. The goal is not to save money but to stop collecting it.

Incredible indeed
Mass layoffs of IRS agents who catch tax evaders.

Once more, Elon Musk's very sincere crusade to cut "waste and fraud" out of the federal government just so happens to weaken government power over billionaires like him.

What an incredible string of coincidences we've had here.
(AP) — The IRS will lay off roughly 7,000 workers in Washington and around the country beginning Thursday, a person familiar with the plans told The Associated Press.

These are the kinds of stories about the human costs of the Trump-Musk coup that desperately need telling right now.

Local news outlets and independent journalists can do a lot of important work here, for their own communities but also for the national effort to push back against this insanity.

I’m begging Democrats to stop talking about tax breaks for billionaires and the price of eggs! They are firing Air Traffic Controllers, stranding Americans in hostile countries, and getting ready to download our data from the IRS. No one is sitting around thinking “I’m worried about the deficit!”
