Eric Schmitt called Jack Smith a “total dirtbag” and accused him of perjury over a basketball game. His "proof" confused the Atlanta Hawks with the Iowa Hawkeyes. Amy Klobuchar had to put the Feb. 3, 2024 score on the record: Iowa 93, Maryland 85. Senate oversight, folks.

The library isn't your mommy or daddy. Nobody is forcing you to check out any books. Nobody is forcing you to read any books. If you don't like a book, don't read it. If you don't want your kids reading the book, grow up, be a parent, and choose a different book.

Watching this happen was a car crash in slow motion. So much cringe. Amy Klobuchar leading Schmitt the context being Iowa Hawkeyes and not Atlanta Hawks was chef kiss. The professional woman gently helping the boys to the correct answer is basically my days work. lol

Here’s what we really need to focus a lot more discussion on — you don’t need to hate cars in order to want people to have the CHOICE to walk, bike and take public transit in your city. Better cities provide more choices, and work better for EVERYONE. Bad cities offer only dependency. #CarDependency

It’s remarkable how many people can move on a street when those people don’t feel the need to always take a massive car with them. Mobility in cities is about space.

Busy European street with buses filled with people in a long line of people on bikes, waiting for the light to change in a separated, protected bike lane. Imagine if all those people or each in a separate car.
