Here is what Ford wants to rip out.
In a city stuck in debilitating gridlock, nothing better than removing bike lanes and getting more people driving.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation.
I will not be silenced.

Third game was in Osaka (actually Kobe (actually Nishinomiya)) with the Hanshin Tigers hosting the Yomiuri Giants. Koshien Stadium just finished hosting the national summer HS baseball tournament. Tigers tickets are tough to get, so I overpaid for Stubhub tickets in the outfield, which was great!
Last game was on Tuesday night back in Tokyo. Chunichi Dragons got a 3-run homer and beat the Yomiuri Giants 3-0 as neither team could manage to hit their way out of a paper bag.
My first game was last Wednesday with Seibu Lions hosting Nippon Ham Fighters (Ohtani's team while in Japan). It was oppressively hot, and for some reason, they installed mist jets all around the stadium to try to cool people off. It was outrageously humid under the dome as it caught the moisture.
My second game was on Friday in Hiroshima as the Carp hosted the Yakult Swallows. We were down in the LF corner, but the seats were very comfortable and actually faced the right direction to watch the game on the infield. No dome or misting system meant that it was cooler, though still hot.
telling that periodically someone would go "man dolly parton can't really be all that" and then they'd go look into it and come back with "actually she's even better than we thought"
Dolly Parton's passing is effortlessly proving that if you spend your life being nice and kind and generous instead of mean and cruel and selfish, then apologists for mean cruel selfish bullies won't have to go around scolding people for cheering when you die, because there will be no cheering.
A legend knows greatness when he sees it. Honored to sit down one on one with Thierry Henry to talk about the city we both love.

The WNBA Player’s Association issued an excellent (imo) statement yesterday, stressing the league’s values and stating that they won’t be used as political pawns. The league and its individual teams might want to reach out to whoever is doing comms for the WNBPA. Just sayin.
Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls.
TLDR: We won!🥳
There’s a guy on TikTok who posts just him taking a pizza out of the oven every day with tongs and all of the comments are about how their day is ruined from having watched this
I saw yesterday that some right-wing outlets were running stories about me, which I’m used to. But this time I’m going to say something about it, because these were framed to imply that I was aligned with their own transphobia. ⬇️
WOW -- Danish reporter *goes there* with Rutte
"You sit next to Trump when he talks about conquering Greenland, lashes out at allies like Spain -- things it doesn't seem like the old Mark Rutte would approve of. Does this have any affect on your self-respect when you sit there and say nothing?"
A $3 @mta.info subway fare and some good Q train timing can buy you one hell of a view of the July 4th fireworks and the Brooklyn Bridge light show!
Huge shoutout to the train operator for slow rolling over the Manhattan Bridge and the conductor for announcing it.
Rebecca: "Chaps, Alexi left us"
Zlatan: "Who?
Rebecca: "Alexi will be back, Alexi will be back with us very soon"
Thierry: "Your plan worked, Rebecca"
Rebecca: "Don't you bring me into this, no chance"
Zlatan: "America, you're welcome"
lmaooooooooooooooooo
1/ This line is the border between Evanston and Rogers Park, Chicago’s northernmost neighborhood.
On Oct. 31, it became the site of what appears to be an attempt by Evanston police to dodge the city’s sanctuary city ordinance... 🧵
Black people are giving it these Confederates raw and uncut. This is how it’s gonna be now. You wonder what we’re thinking? It’s this.
I believe this is activist Gary Chambers again in Louisiana.
