NYC’s congestion pricing is a policy miracle: Less traffic, less noise, faster transit, more business sales, more transit revenue. And it hasn’t produced the negative effects outside the cordon zone we were afraid of.

As I complete my PhD thesis investigating the nexus of dyslexia and visual art, I am deeply aware that many neurodiverse people are being further disadvantaged in the US. Already a hard road for many of us, made harder still by the prejudice new policies being laid out by the Trump regime. #dyslexia

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options.
Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

We all like to yell at the Democrats, but it’s really Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune who are letting Elon Musk and his faceless goon squad make a mockery of their power as leaders of a coequal branch without uttering a peep or lifting a finger.

As Jesus famously said, Love thy neighbor a bit less than thyself
I mean yes, there is such a concept in Christianity. It appears quite notably in the letters of Paul, for instance, where it’s a concept he *relentlessly* argues against, and in the Gospel where it’s a concept Jesus very much repeatedly scorns. So it is technically in there!

We the People, against the corruption of Richard Nixon, decided that the Earth needed our help. We the People created the major environmental legislation and policies that improved life. We can't pause in the face of more corruption. We must stop burning fossil fuels and restore Earth's diversity. 1
