Our election research team put out an article today explaining how the prediction markets (e.g. Kalshi, Polymarket) — and social media posts featuring visualizations from those platforms — may feed election rumors & conspiracy theories around the U.S. midterms: uwcip.substack.com/p/what-to-kn...

I've always believed Oxford Street could be so much more than a road. Today we begin a new chapter as the nation’s high street goes traffic free, creating a place where people can spend time, enjoy the atmosphere and experience the very best of our city.

A game-changer, not just for civic life in London, but for the idea of street transformations for people all over the world.

In a scathing opinion, Judge Ana Reyes concludes that the Trump admin. had settled on a plan to turn East Potomac Park into the elite golf course Trump has been wanting to see built in D.C., all while DOJ represented in court that nothing happening, including DOI felling 400+ trees, was related.

It's probably better to think of Elon Musk as, first and foremost, a white nationalist billionaire who works to spread racism and elect Republicans and, secondly, as someone who likes to blow up rockets in his spare time.

This is a great thread about Ilhan Omar but I wanted to highlight this one because so many people do not realize that constituent services are part of what your elected folks are supposed to be doing, and it's rare that they'll go out of their way to bring it to your attention.

Elon Musk is pouring millions into Republican Senate races, including efforts to help Ken Paxton in Texas, where Musk has major business interests. One billionaire with enough money to influence an election. How? Citizens United made this possible. Reminder Tomorrow: N🚫 Kings #VoteEarlyOnNoKings
