I was a Republican for 37 years. I absolutely disagree with Harris and Walz on some issues. But they will stand up to Vladimir Putin. They will not wreck the economy with ridiculous tariffs. And they aren't criminal insurrectionists. That's why I am a Republican for Harris.

Every argument I've ever heard from people who hate cyclists boils down to "they force me to pay closer attention when I'm driving."

To lower housing costs in Massachusetts and around the country, weโ€™ve got to build more housingโ€”itโ€™s Econ 101. My bill will make sure we do exactly that: boston.com/news/local-news/2โ€ฆ

An actual hero. This is what America First looks like when itโ€™s a lived ethos, rather than a mask for narcissism and ambition.

I think a lot of people, including those whoโ€™ve been severely critical of Biden, are underrating how much upside there would be to having a nominee who was regularly appearing on television / podcasts / YouTube shows delivering crisp anti-Trump talking points.

โ€œI am confident that I can continue to do this job for the next six months but I am not confident I can convince the American people that I can do it for the next four years and I donโ€™t want doubts about my age to lead to Donald Trumpโ€™s reelection so I am standing aside.โ€
Biden would not only have to not run but heโ€™d have to resign. Neither of which is happening. Any article about his age that is absent the fact heโ€™s accomplished bipartisan, put black woman on Supreme Court, brought economy back from brink after COVID is an emotional play. Because itโ€™s clear even in his age he can do the job of POTUS.

Poverty is the natural state of the Universe -- the sleepless monster that pursues us for our entire lives. Only the great fortress of industrial modernity holds it at bay. Our task is to bring the entire world under the shelter of that fortress. noahpinion.blog/p/the-elemenโ€ฆ

Biden bombing in the debate is actually good news for the Democrats. It means we'll get a new candidate who can win.

A world without human drivers on their phones is a safer one. A world without parking requirements is one with more affordable housing and more interesting small businesses.
New data shows that the Waymo Driver continues to make roads safer. Over 14.8M rider-only miles driven through the end of March, it was up to 3.5x better in avoiding crashes that cause injuries and 2x better in avoiding police-reported crashes than human drivers in SF & Phoenix.

INDUCED DEMAND "If it were EASIER TO DRIVE CARS where it's currently inconvenient, more people would make car trips." "Yes, obviously." "If it were EASIER TO RIDE BIKES where it's currently inconvenient, more people would make bike trips." "No, that's stupid."
