Editor of Streetsblog NYC and a New Yorker who bikes. First, Fourth and 21st Amendment absolutist. And from the lawyers: “Organizational affiliation is for identification purposes only.”
My guess? This is not going to be a good rush hour for millions of New Yorkers …

Here's a legit question: CloudFlare, a company I'd never heard of, cost my company tens of thousands of dollars today because of its outage. But today's corporate oligarchy is an elaborately constructed accountability avoidance machine. So how can I get compensated for our losses?

My working theory based on people I've known along time and their recent Instagram posts: The Free Press has done an insidious job of telling neurotic upper middle class Jews with victim complexes what they want to hear, and it's made them all nuts.

"The more-than-300 comments responding to that anonymous post are full of mothers looking for property in New Jersey or Florida, predicting that Mamdani’s promise to make buses free will lead criminals to rape and kill innocent passengers."

On Monday, after a rare show of resistance to the Trump administration in the form of a highly disruptive government shutdown, several Senate Democrats folded—and plenty of people are pointing fingers at the caucus leader who couldn't control them.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

Dick Cheney did more than anyone else to build up expansive and destructive executive branch powers in the wake of 9/11; he lived to see another president turn those same powers against his own daughter.

He should be a warning sign to the GOP today but too many of them are in the cult.
