Mike Johnson threatens us with a good time: "If this group took over, they would turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body. They'd spend every day investigating the president, the first family, the cabinet, donors to the party, leaders of business ... "

Two episodes into Carrie and I once again want to state that I'd trust Mike Flanagan with my life. The man has a way with an adaptation that keeps the heart but serves it fresh. I dig it.

John Roberts' friend and defender is quoted in the piece, saying they shouldn't be shaming Roberts for the wreckage and ruin he's brought to this country because of "civility." The bullies always cry "civility" when the victims push back in the slightest.

I hear about how drivers, walkers, and cyclists can’t safely coexist in town and it’s just not true. Guess where they don’t have any problems? On our wide trail sections. It’s not a lack of available space, it’s a lack of political will. Hope to convince my fellow councilors of this.

Driving a car for errands is so stressful. Biking (on protected infrastructure) is not. More Americans should have the ability to decide how to complete each trip w/o car dependency forced on them. 🚲 ❤️

The TV pool networks won't provide coverage today: "Effective today, the TV pool will not be covering events designated as pool coverage of the President. This follows the White House's position preventing CNN from fulfilling its assigned pool duties. There will be no replacement pool put in place."

The key thing here is *certain* trips. You don't have to suddenly go car-free! But even replacing a handful of weekly car trips with a bike can lead to savings. Car dependency is a systemic problem, but at the same time, many people are in a position to make changes like this.

I feel no joy in the pain that high gas prices cause people. I also understand that some folks feel they have no alternative but to drive. But there are millions of people who can replace certain trips with a bike/e-bike and many people who make that leap discover it makes life better in many ways.

I always think Hassett is the stupidest, most dishonest person in the administration. Until Hegseth opens his mouth. Then RFK, Jr. finds a mic. Then Sean Duffy appears in my feed. Then Lutnick speaks. But only till Markwayne talks. Then I remember: NO ONE is a stupid and dishonest as Trump himself.
