Argentine media says he may have crossed into Argentina to board a private jet to the US. An ally denied he had left Brazil. The investigation follows a Supreme Court order revoking his passports and banning him from leaving the country.

about twenty five people showed up in front of Brooklyn's best public transit station, to protest better transit yesterday. big "we demand to be taken seriously" energy.

It’s time to shove OPTO down their throats. The TWU rank-and-file shouldn’t empower anti-labor right wing chuds.

Sam@samd.bsky.social

TWU be like “Hochul is MAGA because she doesn’t support our MAGA union” in reality, they’re just mad at Hochul because she refused to expand the union’s expensive handouts and make-work jobs funded with taxpayer $$

I still can’t believe that Geddy Lee broke a lifelong streak of not making explicit political endorsements for *this* guy.

Roose does a very nice job signaling in the second paragraph what sort of book this will be. He decided to write it the night after partying with ketamine-snorting effective accelerationists. He isn’t e/acc himself, but he hangs with that crowd and accepts their premises as newsworthy,

look, I understand why people blindly believe "cars will make everything better", but when they show up with AI-generated signs, protesting street safety projects being enacted because PEOPLE DIED, I can't take them seriously.

Brad Bradford is lying about the reality of what Toronto is, just as Andrew Cuomo and Eric Adams lied about the reality of what New York is. This is because they are all liars, and they hate the wonderful and vibrant cities they claim they want to serve, but actually want to rule over.

Crime is down. Toronto is objectively a safe place. Why does Bradford want us scared? www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

The Community has decided to sleep in

The folks who were going to protest the Bergen St. bike boulevard and bus redesign on Thursday are now doing it on Saturday morning. The white women organizing this have coopted BLM imagery, and they've dropped the fact that they're protesting against "fast buses" from some versions of the flyer.

Can we have a serious conversation in the planning world about the proliferation of uber-woke/protest/communal representation language being used to oppose safe streets and transit? Because it's a real thing that's happening a lot and our systems are not equipped to deal with it.

I will say again: The divide in the Jewish community is not between Zionists and anti-Zionists, it's between people who view the Occupation as an unacceptable moral atrocity and these who view it as an inconvenience to be managed.

There's a scenario in which the Supreme Court gets this case in December and three justices involved in Bush v. Gore on behalf of Bush will be asked whether confusion is grounds to reject election results.

The Trump administration is preemptively suing to block Alaska from certifying a Mary Peltola victory, should she win. Their argument is that the double Dan Sullivan thing is confusing voters. www.reuters.com/world/trump-...

I used to ride roughly 4,000mi (6,400km) annually before my son was born. I’ll be lucky if I clock a quarter of that this year. I don’t know how this man can actually bike this much in a year, but it is consistent with all the absentee councillor complaints from his Beaches–East York constituents.

"Look, nobody rides more bikes than I do. I rode 10,000 kilometres last year," brags Bradford. He says he's "the only candidate that has a plan to build new cycling infrastructure — we're just going to do it in our ravine network."
