We're getting new trains!

The MTA has approved the purchase of new M-9A rail cars, which will feature glass windows, USB ports, and enhanced accessibility — including automatic bathroom doors.

The first set is expected to enter service in 2030.

Everyone running for public office needs to unequivocally say whether they support Trump’s attacks on Iran — attacks which put hundreds of millions of lives at risk.

My answer is an unequivocal NO and there’s no excuse for a candidate to say anything different.

This is reckless, illegal action from the president. He does NOT have the authority to enter us into a war with Iran. He MUST consult Congress. This is not what Americans want. I’m thinking about our troops tonight.

Never forget: Trump tore up the Obama Iran nuclear deal in 2018. He hated that the black guy negotiated it.

Before he became pope, Chicago-born Robert Prevost was raised in a household of Cubs and Cardinals fans. Yet his allegiances were to the Sox.
Sorry, Cubs fans: Pope Leo roots for the White Sox, his brother says

Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, 69, from Chicago, is the first ever pope from the US. He will be known as Leo XIV.

A leader with global experience, he spent much of his career as a missionary in South America and most recently led a powerful Vatican office for bishop appointments. cnn.it/4ddrlsO

As a note - You can actually see me in the background in the 1st show (at about 45 and 47 minutes). Much more hair (and darker).

@leolaporte.me @ihnatko.bsky.social @snell.zone Hello MacBreak Weekly legends! I wish I could tag Alex here. Could one of you show him this screenshot from Disney’s new “Light and Magic” Season 2 trailer? Could we be looking at a photo of Alex’s Mac from when he worked on Padme’s ship in Star Wars?
