The biggest mistake Dems in red states make is NOT CALLING THEIR REPUBLICAN reps. Calling your rep - ESPECIALLY if they're Republican, is critical. Otherwise they just hear from supporters and think they're doing a great job. americansofconscience.com/faq-calling-...

Transit and active transportation advocates should be constantly bringing up these statistics: Driving is far more dangerous than taking transit, by every measure. The more we can get people out of cars, the safer everyone will be. www.scientificamerican.com/article/is-p...

I gave a campus talk last night on Trump's first 100 days for the WUD Society & Politics group. A student asked me if I thought that, at some point, we might start to describe the US as a competitive authoritarian regime.

We are living through Republicanism boiled down to its essence: Everyone should be deprived of everything, because otherwise, somebody I don't like might get something I don't want them to have. We call it an ideology, but it's really a personality: Greedy, withholding, suspicious, angry, cruel.

Just after last weekend's tornado warning, an SFPD officer driving too fast for conditions struck and killed a pedestrian near Bayshore & Industrial. The unnamed pedestrian is the 39th traffic fatality of the year, a victim of car-focused streets and police impunity.

“For half a century, a litany of federal policies has favored large SUVs & trucks, pushing automakers & buyers toward larger models. Instead of counteracting #CarBloat thru regulation, policymakers have subtly encouraged it. That has been a boon for car companies but a disaster for everyone else.”
