“I think what they’re really concerned about is that left politics *will* resonate — and you’ll have progressives and democratic socialists in office demanding that the Democratic Party leadership actually do something.”

The Democrats’ “Woke” Panic and the Left’s Response
The victory of left-wing candidates in Democratic primary elections shows that voters want a different path. But party leaders don’t.

I know Rahm Emanuel. I worked with him for years in the Clinton administration, and then when he was Obama’s chief of staff. Rahm Emanuel represents everything that’s been wrong about the Democratic Party for the last 30+ years. Be warned. robertreich.substack.com/p/the-rahm…

This is a direct result of everyone with Real Change, Share the Cities & Transit Riders Union highlighting this priority for many years. We appreciate the Wilson Administration focusing on this. Several previous Mayors actively ignored this topic - remember that.

Washington folks, don’t sleep on WSDOT’s e-bike rebate program. My husband recently had his e-bike stolen outside the UW gym. He applied to the rebate program and was selected. It’s a lottery but almost 20% of those who apply get it. Rebate amount varies by income, from $300 to $1,200.

Two Black mayors took cities that the country loves to write off and made them measurably safer. That’s not a fluke. That’s a blueprint. Chicago and Baltimore just posted numbers that should be front-page news. They’re not. We need to talk about why. 🧵 www.theroot.com/opinion-blac...

Mayor Wilson just won an end to rental junk fees, after fighting for free school lunches in Seattle, reforms that advance her housing agenda, a bold transit plan, and took bold action to align the PD with Seattle’s expectations, needs, and values. All while being a world class World Cup host.

The Fauci hearing perfectly illustrated how living through a once in a century pandemic somehow made Republicans far worse on public health. God forbid we face anything like covid again during Trump 2.0. There will be no Dr Fauci around to try to talk sense to Trump.

FYI there is no "real" reason why Rome "fell." Its power waned for the usual, mundane reasons: widening gap between rich and poor, inability to maintain infrastructure, incompetent leadership, pointless wars, endless persecution of marginalized groups who performed vital labor, etc.

RFK Jr. says that HPV vaccine is “dangerous and defective”. A new study from England shows that HPV vaccines have reduced deaths from cervical cancer to ZERO for women aged 20-24. Significant reductions in older age groups were observed as well, though the latter have lower vaccination coverage.
