the most important thing in 2028 is electing someone who is a true believer in the project of dismantling right-wing power. if you don't get that, then nothing else will matter very much.

My most woke opinion is that cities should completely ignore suburban commuters and design the city we aspire to be. They’ll either begrudgingly commute in by car, mode shift, or be replaced by others in foot traffic
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

This is not what they actually say. This is what they used to say, in the long ago before times when Shaheen learned to do politics. There is no kumbaya median voter anymore. The question you get knocking doors is not "why can't you all just work together?" it's "why didn't / will you fight harder?
Shaheen: "When I talk to my constituents in New Hampshire, you know what they say to me? They say, 'Why can't you all just work together to address the problems that are facing this country?'"

Resign bitch!!! You are no longer (and frankly have never been) fit to lead the Democratic Party. Capitulation to Trump and the republicans will hurt millions of Americans.

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week

Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

God it feels SO cathartic to call your representatives and make demands. I (respectfully) got to give a staffer an earful and I just hope everyone is doing the same. Clog their inboxes.

I’m a constituent in King County and I’m calling on you to demand the immediate resignation of Senator Chuck Schumer from leadership! He must be replaced with someone that will actually fight Trump and the Republicans.

When will the USDOT be issuing a "safety warning" to the Texas Department of Transportation, which maintains infrastructure in a state where one person was killed in traffic every two hours in 2024, and one person was injured every *two minutes* for the entire year?

A study of six years of longitudinal data across 14,011 blocks in 28 U.S. cities shows - again! - if you build protected bike infrastructure people will ride bikes.
Protected bike lanes linked to nearly double the number of bicycle commuters
Would commuters be more likely to ride a bike if they had the option to ride in a protected lane? New research led by a University of New Mexico School of Engineering faculty member says yes.

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies.

Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE.

Funny how that works, huh?
