It’s morally insane that a week after a mass shooting took six lives in our community, House Republicans only response is to expel us for standing with our constituents to call for gun control.

What’s happening in Tennessee is a clear danger to democracy all across this nation.

In 2010, Nikki Haley was interviewed by the Sons of Confederate Veterans ab her feelings on the confederate flag. This rare clip shows a different side of Haley than most know. She defends the flag, insists it isnt racist, and that she’d even support a Confederate Memorial Month.

Today I met with officials in Helsinki, which has had a ~75% drop in road deaths over the last thirty years (including recent years with no ped/cyclist deaths at all).

Me: “How much of a role has IT played in reducing crashes?”

City official: “Zero. We simply slowed down cars.”

Another US election, another "Land doesn't vote, people do" style map showing the election results.

Gerrymandering at work
The voters didn’t change; the maps did

It's rare to see the Fed speaking this clearly about how it works, but here the president of the Kansas City branch says Americans have too much money and that's a problem the Fed's going to solve. https://t.co/s9rG1TvEn9

I’m so lucky to have been able to see Obama give a lot of speeches. This isn’t even the first time I’ve seen him speak in the gym at North Division High School in Milwaukee.
I’ve never seen him so loose, so undeniably true, and so on fire. It was wild. Vote.

@tdvorak1 I figured it would happen sooner or later, but it’s still so sad.

[Lori Compas @LoriCompas]

Haha yes already happening

Shinkansen: zero passenger deaths in its 50-year history
Texas highways: at least one person killed every day for 22 years

On September 23, Larry Kudlow on Fox Business bragged that Liz Truss was "operating a Reagan, Thatcher, Trump economic policy." Truss just resigned after these policies quickly sent the UK's economy into shambles.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Oil prices today: $85.90 a barrel
Gas prices today: $3.85 a gallon

Oil prices in April 2010: $85.66 a barrel
Gas prices in April 2010: $2.85 a gallon

Gas prices are $1 a gallon higher than they should be because of Big Oil's greed. We need a windfall profits tax.

Can streets really be transformed into people-places while still allowing cars? Not if you try to treat them equally. Cars need to be tamed — prioritized last — usually moving no faster than strollers walk. The relative size of images on this #Paris street conveys the priority.

Rachel Self, a Boston immigration attorney tells you everything you need to know about immigrants sent to Martha’s Vineyard.

They’d been given falsified U.S. addresses by immigration officials, perhaps ensuring that they’d be deemed in the country illegally.

NEWS: The little-known aviation company awarded the migrant "relocation" contract by the DeSantis administration purchased 6 helicopters from the Russian government in 2018 for $42 million. Other significant business with Kremlin-adjacent companies. https://t.co/YFjdncOU26
