Well, what other opinion would you expect from someone whose newspaper is dying in darkness?

Andrew Cuomo hasn't lived in the city since 1990 and only just moved here at the end of 2024 into his daughter's apartment for his vanity run for mayor. Anyone arguing that he's a New Yorker is deliberately obfuscating.

We'd like to think that @chi.streetsblog.org 's tireless razzing of Tribune editorial board members might be helping nudge them out from behind the steering wheel, towards a more progressive attitude on walk/bike/transit matters.

It’s really sad and pathetic how Ohio legislators are so allergic to passenger trains of all kinds. But somehow…they had $600 Million to give to Jimmy and Dee Haslam, the billionaire owners of the Browns, for a new stadium not in Cleveland. Ohio legislators really don’t make any sense.

This is so fucked up! Why is highway spending never subjected to this bullshit? Does it really have to be this way, Illinois legislators?

A good thing.

Yes! At least they’re finally admitting that doing it “the way we’ve always done it” isn’t working and are willing to try something different to make the trains run more reliably.

Yes, state leaders. Why is that?

This is true. And even if you think this ISN’T the particular problem your city has, it’s always a safe bet that adding more car lanes still won’t solve whatever you think your problem is.

Yes, please! It’s not good to keep losing representative seats in Congress. Try to get at least one seat back, CGA!

Here's my secret: I hate them as much as they pretend to hate us, and I'm sick of acting as if I actually have to care about their voters.

And that’s the problem with street running railways in North America.

To those who still want to kill congestion pricing - Haw haw! 😂

You CAN’T take the high road with a morally bankrupt person. It just DOESN’T work…

He regrets RESIGNING? Seriously 😒???

“People say, ‘Oh, you can't take away our car. We need it for family purposes,’" State Sen. Gounardes said. "Well, if you can't operate the vehicle safely, we're going to force you to operate the vehicle safely if you have a history of being extremely reckless.” buff.ly/aErPuqX

🎶 Ohhh-klahoma where they find new ways to make me stay awaaaay! No, you’re not doing fine, Oklahoma! Oklahoma, not OK! Yeeow! 🎶

I wish he were already NJ’s governor. Just on numbers 1, 3 and 5 alone, he’s waaaay better than the current governor.

This native New Yorker would jump at the chance to go to Schwartz’s again

Suuure…it was Hizzoner’s dyslexia…

The New York State budget awarded QueensLink $100k in matching funds for its Reconnecting Communities Pilot Program grant! This codifies support for the study of QueensLink at the state level. Another big step towards #RailsandTrails on the Rockaway Beach Branch! 🚉🌳

Haw-haw! 😂
