i call's em like i see's em and Coach Sam is maybe one of the ~ 5 most effective climate activists I'm aware of today. So far, that has not drawn support from climate funders. Not sure what needs to happen for that to change. Maybe this podcast will do it!

I’ve had a lot of loved ones die over the last 2 decades, I’ve learned that there’s no point in keeping my rhetorical powder dry. If something sucks I’d rather say it and maybe upset someone than die and regret never getting it out there and maybe effecting some change in a positive direction.

By tabling this bill, our City Council is not showing tremendous leadership on Vision Zero.

Drivers are killing and injuring kids but the city council members want to table this so the drivers don't get fined too much. 😐

Extremely disappointing that some council members are not grasping the urgency here. Lives are at stake. Especially frustrating that my CM's main objection is about (imo) the opaque and antidemocratic tool of prerogative.

This is a great story because maybe someone did it to send a message to Elon but also it's entirely possible they all just happened to spontaneously combust at the same time

What an absolute embarrassment for the city of NY. My God. A great city led by the most corrupt people on the planet and some NYers want to install Cuomo as Mayor. It's unbelievable.

Yes. If DHS can barge in, say your visa was revoked, be told you have a green card, say it's revoked too, and then disappear you so that neither your lawyer nor your family can find you, then all the guardrails are gone. There is no policy, practice, or law protecting anyone.

Rahm Emanuel covered up the murder of a Black teen, and shuttered public clinics and schools. Cuomo covered up COVID nursing home deaths and harassed women. These men heard "now is the time of monsters" and decided to attempt a comeback. They both belong in hell.

Reminder that there are no real consequences to censure. It’s just a formal reprimand. It’s symbolic. But it sure as hell brings to light the party members who DON’T have your back

They’ve halted NIH funding, are dismantling the Department of Education, and privatizing Social Security, and Tom Suozzi thinks that the big problem is that Democrats…were mean? Primary this cowardly, feckless, toothless moron, please.

The mood is grim in this Ohio bar as locals consider the double whammy of tariff-driven inflation and sinking retirement funds. But they know it's a price worth paying because things will be even worse for Blacks and Hispanics.
