Yesterday was AMAZING! 🚴♀️ An estimated 100k cyclists from 200 cities road a Memorial Bike Ride to honor Alex Pretti.
Why? Because Alex was an avid cyclist. 🥹
I'll admit this had my tear ducts gushing for a full 5 minutes.
Fascists vs Cyclists. 🚴♀️

When a president talks about skipping elections and floating an unconstitutional 3rd term, it’s not hard to see what this is and what it isn’t.
Seizing election material in a state that already counted the 2020 results three separate times isn’t about election integrity.
It’s about preparation.

In Springfield, Ohio, people are preparing in advance of a “large deportation” promised by the president. To all appearances, the city is 2 or 3 days from a federal ethnic cleansing, grounded in a hate campaign organized by the vice-president and American Nazis.

Where is federal help or is Trump too busy with rebuilding the Kennedy Center?
Tens of thousands of people across Tennessee, Mississippi and Louisiana have gone a week without power or heat after a brutal ice storm. At least three dozen people have died in connection with the storm, officials have said.

Trump said he wants to drive housing prices up instead of lowering costs for people who didn't work very hard. That's what he thinks of you, that if you can't afford a house it's your own damn fault & don't expect him to do anything. He wants lower interest rates for his benefit.

Before the 2024 election, I outlined 9 ways Trump had damaged Constitutional democracy, saying the 10th and final barrier was We the People.
We’re not a year into democratic backsliding. We’re a year into a plurality of American voters endorsing nearly a decade of backsliding, and opting for more.

Again, it all should have ended when he started monetizing the presidency at his hotel in 2017, three blocks from the White House. But everyone in Congress decided that he is One Special Boy, & so here we are. Unprecedented corruption in plain sight.
He's looting the U.S. Treasury, people. Most crooked dictators find covert ways to get rich. Trump intends to simply order his government to transfer money into his bank account.
Trump on his multiple suits against the federal government: "I'm supposed to work out a settlement with myself ... We could make it a substantial amount, nobody would care, because it's gonna go to numerous, very good charities."

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.
