Uh oh, dont tell Sean Duffy. Our DOT secretary doesnt like people walking or biking. Too woke or something.
Gov. Landry: "I like to ask Democrats if they like their communities to be dangerous or safe. Do they want their children to be able to walk to school or do they want to worry if they send them on the sidewalks, that unfortunate violent things are going to happen to them?"

Yes...Republicans dont stand on values or institutions. They often operate for short term and individual gains. There is very little consistency, and changes of opinions only occur for selfish gains.

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

Given recent events, this seems completely necessary
Flock ignored multiple requests to take down their cameras after the City of Verona did not renew the contract. So this is where we are at. You can't trust Flock. Dane County needs to take their Flock cameras down.

Here is footage of the ICE shooting this morning in Minneapolis from the close- up vantage point on the other side of the street. The murdered protester goes to help a woman who is injured by ICE and six agents drag him down, beat him and then he is shot.

This is the most DNC idea I've ever heard.
I am introducing the Quick Recognition (QR) Act, which requires ICE and CBP officers to wear uniforms featuring QR codes. When scanned, the code would generate a digital ID displaying the officer’s name, badge number, and law enforcement agency.
ICE should be unmasked both physically and digitally.

I am always shocked at how little value consultants put on mainline stop bar detection and side street advance detection.
Its 2025 and we still just assume to always recall mainline phases to pong min greens and who cares about side street operations.

Median bus lanes also can make TSP easier and less expensive to implement.
A textbook of bad street design:
✅ Curbside bus lanes, which never work
✅ Right turners can block bus lane
✅ Bikes and buses, which move at different speeds, share one lane
✅ Narrow sidewalk blocked by trees and posts.

I found this street diagram for a project in Las Vegas and damn its perfect for Aurora Avenue here in Seattle

Every time I visit family here...Im just shocked Holland is the same population as Sun Prairie.

First time playing the Age of Steam Detroit Bankrupcy map. All three of us agreed it was better than the base map.
