DC 🚦: "If you don’t like traffic cameras, you’ll hate the police." By @peterodrigue.bsky.social in @ggwash.org: ggwash.org/view/102070/... .
If you don’t like traffic cameras, you’ll hate the police
Congressional Republicans are floating axing DC’s traffic camera program. Everyone, including MPD, would hate this.

The modern republican party is not just unamerican, it is anti-American. Its politics and policies are not just unconstitutional, they are anti-constitutional.

This is pure, unabashed bigotry.
If a politician said this about any other faith, they would rightfully be run out of their party.
But this kind of despicable anti-Muslim rhetoric is so normalized that a sitting Senator uses it without consequence.
A stain on our Congress.

Deeply disappointed in MD SHA - only marginal improvements to Blue Line’s Central Av/MD 214 planned. Excessive high speed 6 lanes of traffic remain when could be 4 lanes. Seems serious walk safety improvements were avoided due to concern about cost. Low cost tactics like paint not considered.
