Mr Biden,
I need you to stand up, straighten your back and make some things shake before your departure

I was talking to my mom last night and she told me that my cousin had made a pact with her husband not to vote this year.

My cousin is a diehard liberal who loathes Donald Trump and lives in a red state.

Their logic was that since her husband would vote for Donald Trump and she would vote for VP Kamala Harris, their votes would essentially cancel each other out.

My mom wasn't happy when my cousin told her this, but she decided not to say anything at the time.

Last night, my mom caved and called my cousin and told her that she has to vote.

My cousin whispered, "I'm going to. Don't tell my husband!"

I know there are plenty of women out there who are going to be voting for VP Harris whose husbands don't want them to vote.

Do it anyway.

@MissEdwardsCLT @JHolmesLives Kudos for getting it all on 1 page!

So when we lost the Silver Line we also lost the Rail Trail which we were designing in tandem with it. B/c we were getting the Silver Line Rail Trail we abandoned our years of advocacy for Independence Bikeway South:

Some morning thoughts on Charlotte's transit system as I depart to one of the most interconnected countries in the world🇪🇸.
• I don't think we should accept the current iteration of the transit plan. It just just does not do enough.
• Roads are vital, but they should not... 1/5

Must-read from Ta-Nahesi Coates on those left out of the #DNC's diversity displays:

"No Palestinian American is scheduled to address the convention from the main stage. I suspect this is because of what such a speaker might feel compelled to say."

Biden: "Trump continues to lie about crime in America, like everything else ... violent crime has dropped to the lowest level in more than 50 years. And crime will keep coming down when we put a prosecutor in the Oval Office instead of a convicted felon."

Biden notes Charlottesville demonstrators were "so emboldened by a president then in the White House that they saw as an ally, they didn't even both to wear their hoods"

"I had to listen to the admonition of my dead son. I could not stay on the sidelines. So I ran," he adds

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

absolutely huge reception for Biden, as there should be
