Christie brings up Superstorm Sandy and the people who put their trust in him during the recovery as “the highest high” as a public official. “But I also have made mistakes. I made judgments that were wrong and I’ve trusted people that I shouldn’t have trusted.”

A mayor who is in "the arena" and always going to give her "authentic self." Philly's first female mayor @PeopleforParker is already showing up differently than her male predecessors.

Always appreciate Bill McKinney's essays on Kensington, but this one is especially poignant after what was probably the most delirious election cycle I've witnessed in two decades here https://t.co/zGWODPxVxU

I don’t understand why @SEPTA is idling trains for so long during rush hour. Is there a problem with the eastbound MFL?

Khalif Mujahid-Ali, a devoted community organizer who wrapped his arms around the city’s youth and “took every homicide personally,” died this week. He was 60 years old.

“He just cared in a way that was so authentic.”

“They don’t have no hope,” he said of the city’s young people in a recent interview. “We have to show them that we love them, we care, we want to save their lives.” A moving tribute to a man who found his calling in caring for the next generation. https://t.co/W9CApkL0Ss

@bikemamadelphia YES. My plan.

[Ryan W Briggs @rw_briggs]

Jeff Brown founded a nonprofit that provided job training to hundreds of formerly incarcerated people

It has also paid well over $1.5M in recent years to Brown’s company - via office leases, lunch purchases or to reimburse corporate donations https://t.co/XoXCvWYBWb

Charter schools discriminate in all types of ways — but this is the closest I’ve seen to literal redlining.

“Modern America, including New York, designates some categories of people as socially dead — part of an underclass that is subject to exclusion, indifference, or even outright hatred and violence.” https://t.co/5kl3qSXYbf

@pmgentry Tell me more about our adulation of Biden. I want links.

@miles__bryan This tweet makes me miss our Rowhouse Grocery small talk.

Philadelphia is getting a revised bus service and understanding what's changing amongst the 125+ routes can be a little confusing.

So we built this story. Enter your address and we'll tell you what's changed for you. Now on @PhillyInquirer

No, a “microtransit zone” is not some mythical land of tiny buses and trains. @tomfitzgerald has the scoop on a transit, dare I say, innovation from @SEPTA. https://t.co/Qt6huZEOMW

Rachel King was driving her son to violin practice on the morning she was killed. She taught history, mentored students and made her family laugh with a "knee-slapping" sense of humor, reports @rodrigotorrejon.
