I want these in Creve Couer Park.

Death by 1K cuts for sure, but: @nerd4cities.bsky.social: "20% of gas tax revenues have traditionally gone into (H'way Trust Fund's Mass Transit acct., but this (budget) package proposes to put 100% of the new EV/hybrid fees straight into the h'way-only acct." 🤬 www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Hh1...

Yesterday, Republicans passed a so-called “budget” resolution that would gut Medicaid, SNAP, veterans’ benefits, and free school lunches. Let me break down what that means for my people in TX-30: 🧵 (1/4)

Trump has perfected the art of Pareto Worsening, a change in allocation making at least one person worse off without making a single person better off. Trade war, Medicaid cuts, science cuts, there are no winners here, only losers.

Important stuff here. Lots to think about and discuss. Lots to do. We have our work cut out for us and we need all hands on deck. We have to stop reacting and start working like a team. We need leaders who get on the app and organize instead of just popping in to post cliches and run away.

Don’t give them an inch. Nothing. Oppose the Trump agenda.

“Helluva Boss” is a show about rising above what a powerful world tries to tell you you are and finding love n’ family despite everything you have been through. I’m saying that today because I feel it strongly today. That’s what it is, that’s what we want it to be. A story we care about telling. ❤️

15 YEARS OF CITIZENS UNITED This was the beginning of the end! Billionaires who bankrolled Trump’s campaign are now set to reap massive rewards, while WE foot the bill. #StopTheOligarchy

You have, on one hand, the right-wing propaganda machine, which has been built up over 30 or 40 years now, and on the other you have a mainstream media that is just structurally hostile to the Democratic Party. www.publicnotice.co/p/ryan-coope...

The last couple of years, I complained to KSDK-TV about why the St. Louis Archdiocese's Midnight Mass running over the Vatican's Midnight Mass. This year, they just didn't air it...unless it was on one of the HD side channels? What happened last night? 🤔

AI was only one of the issues we took on in 2024. We’ve worked on ensuring that the EU’s new rules regarding large online platforms respect human rights. We’ve filed countless briefs in support of free speech online and represented plaintiffs in cases where bad actors have sought to silence them.
