Adelita Grijalva won her election to Congress over two weeks ago, but Mike Johnson still hasn't sworn her in.

Why the delay?

Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

The only people that want a pipeline are Danielle Smith, and her crony pals. The rest of us want a world we can live in, you know not boiling or laden in ash, a few animals and fish, greenery the pipeline will go to Mr T., rather than BC until we can get that shut down too.

Three newly published books argue that cars are destroying society as well as the planet.

Is the world finally ready to rein in the automobile?

My essay, in @bloomberg.com (gift link below)

‘Car Brain’ Is Making the US Unhealthy and Dangerous. EVs Won’t Fix It.

A trio of new books argue that we need to confront the full range of costs that car-based living has imposed on our cities, our health and our society.

🙏 Yet it seems a no car or low-car world (community) shares the bejesus out of people. My community is being overrun by cars and our city council does little to minimize car usage, or culture. As a result motor vehicles have priority over everything and drivers want more and more.

How archaic. 🥱 Bet he has a horse and buggy, uses a rotary phone, walks to get his groceries, likes his daily mail for his SFH and doesn’t have the internet or any streaming services. Bet he whines about not being able to turn back time to women in the kitchen and men ruling the world.

I know there’s a lot of serious issues involved and everything sucks but can we take a moment to bask in the hilarity of the right wing obsessively rallying against an imaginary organization against fascism… and then believing they’re the good guys?

Apparently Rupert Murdoch and his son don’t care and they were not sued for enough. Many more billions to get this phoney baloney ‘news’ station off the air. 👎
