Aside from other issues with it, isn't it funny that Trump is trying to pass a bill with the same acronym as Build Back Better?

It is comforting, when looking at the current state of things, to remember how oppressively autocratic the W administration was after 9/11, how confidently they crushed dissent and how invincible they seemed - and how thoroughly even their own party now disparages them. The wheel always turns.

There are certainly a lot of people in Washington searching for a way to get that guy out of his policy roles. Big oil, big finance, anti-immigration activists, and China hawks are all upset about his Venezuela position. It would be funny if this were a setup in order to have him removed.

The US gets a disproportionate number of hands on the steering wheel of world affairs but instead of a windshield to see where we're going, most Americans look at themselves in a two way mirror

It's easy to forget now but we had decades of steady advancement on trans rights. The 2016 bathroom bills invited huge backlash! It was only after the media constructed sports and youth medications as 'debates' that opposition moved from the far right to the polite center.

Day of colossal schadenfreude for #bikenyc, as the "major transportation projects" provision in the city code that has derailed the Bedford bike lane removal was in fact created as part of the 2010-era bikelash to gum up the works at NYCDOT

That Oxbow of the river going around the foreground was probably filled with wildlife, birds, insects just a couple years ago. now it's a polluted wasteland full of rocket fuel and heavy metals. And for what?

This is not actually a subtweet of anything specific right now, but I do want to make a plea to everyone to a) attribute and link to the source of any information you're sharing b) only share posts that do so. This isn't (just) about credit, it's about creating a chain of custody for information.

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process. But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things. That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

Yeah you’ve got hochul uploading an official nygov social video calling lander’s arrest, and I’m quoting here, “bullshit.” They think the feds have overreached and are vulnerable.

I think they have been keeping a low profile in New York City to keep this stuff from becoming an issue in the mayoral race. Might have miscalculated a little here.

how can an overwhelming D state and city not pass and enforce laws preventing masked thugs from kidnapping people on the 'trust me bro' promise? maybe the abundance guys can tell them how to do it

Lander just got detained by federal agents as he tried to escort a man out of the courtroom. Lander was taken in an elevator with masked agents, along with one member of his NYPD security detail.
