“Newly built homes are expensive so we shouldn’t allow them.” Friends, what do you think happens to the price of existing homes when we prohibit new construction?

RIP Barbara Friedes, a doctor at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia who was the bicyclist killed by a 69 year old man last night with his car.

But the man was elderly? 🤔 interesting description by the cops.

Release his name. Charge him.

What will DA Krasner do?

🧵Baltimore’s mayoral election tomorrow is being shaped by “the single biggest donation to a political campaign in city history.” But search campaign finance records and you won’t find it anywhere.

As a Black pedestrian citizen in Baltimore, I find it important to contextualize the bike lane conversation through my Black lens. So here’s some perspective as I wrap up editing the video tomorrow. I hope @CCMiddleton6 keeps in mind the needs of us w/o cars.

🧵THREAD: Fox 45 News (@FoxBaltimore) - for several years - has been used as a tool of its owner, Sinclair Broadcasting (@WeAreSinclair), to forward a propaganda around Black inferiority.

What’s their goal?

✅Dehumanize Black people and Black children

✅Undermine Baltimore’s Black political power

✅Roll back the impacts of criminal/juvenile justice reform

✅Recruit Black people to their racist agenda by harnessing the worst experiences and perspectives held by our own community.

Another state moves against car bloat:

A new Maryland bill from @RobbynLewis46th would scale vehicle registration fees based on car weight. Owners of cars > 5,000 lbs would pay $229.50/yr, 4.5x more than cars < 3,500 lbs.

The hearing is on Feb 1.

If you aren’t actively improving people’s material conditions you are not fighting crime.

E-cars were 9% of car sales in 2022, and the e-car fleet was under 17 million worldwide.

E-bike sales were at 275 million.

Politicians and policy-makers, stop ignoring, or underestimating, e-bikes.
