Democrats need to renew American’s faith in democracy and their government. Trump has committed many impeachable acts, committed outright crimes, and attacked democracy itself. Impeach and remove. It’s that simple.

We shouldn’t need to practice saying “leave the kids alone” “we don’t bully people” and we trust people to tell us who they are, and will respect that. I’m going to find or put together a thread of politicians supporting trans people because we are all in this world together.

ICYMI - the big story coming out of RI's legislative primaries is how a new conservative advocacy group batted 0-9 in trying to remake the General Assembly www.oceanstatemedia.org/politics/202...

This is a lot of people getting pushed off Medicaid, student aid not given, research unsupported. This is what our elected national government is choosing to spend our tax dollars on. It has no national purpose, only serving for the glory of one at the expense of us all.

I’m sharing this because it surprises me how many people still don’t know the active harm this author is funding. Conversations about whether we can separate the art from the artist might be interesting, but not when every penny will help fund horrid anti-trans activities around the world.

I don’t know why he thinks it’s $1 to transfer? But maybe this is why, or maybe it is old information? (Almost all of my bus trips are covered by the 1 and the R, even beyond KP.)

My kid just reminded me (as we were mathing out his transportation needs/budget) that transfers cost $ in RI, making point to point more inconvenient because of the transfer, as well as more expensive)

Does replacing parking with bike-lanes hurt restaurant business? Of course not, as this new peer-reviewed STUDY of 15 years of Montreal data showed. ACTUALLY, downtown experienced significant restaurant growth after bike lanes were installed. @momentummag.bsky.social momentummag.com/do-bike-lane...

It’s hard to sit with and absorb all the horrors our federal government is inflicting on us and the world. What we are doing to Haitian people who were told the US would be a safe place, had status, worked, built lives here … I’m angry and heartbroken, and if I cannot stop it I will witness.

Insane new research. Scientists gave asthma patients free electric stoves to replace their gas stoves, then checked to see if symptoms improved. Not only did symptoms improve, ditching gas was *better than medicine.* Details in today's newsletter: www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/electric-s...

Researchers used electric stoves to treat asthma. It worked.

Mostly I let bullying go: people being nasty is a reflection of them, not me. Sadly, this blatant antisemitism is emboldened lately. But so we’re clear: I am not scared of well funded, highly conservative secret PACS, nor the contrarians they hire as cyberbullies, nor the candidates they support.
