F to the YI: mostly moved my social media presence to BlueSky. Same handle there. #bikeDC
This is a prescient warning from someone who witnessed firsthand Hungary's devolution from democracy to autocracy. The big takeaway: too many have their heads in the sand, especially those who could slow or stop the devolution here in the U.S. #resist nytimes.com/2025/07/23/opi…
With CBS cancelling The Late Show after 33 years, here is that time Chris Farley went to see David Letterman in 1996 with the greatest talk show entrance in the history of talk show entrances.
Tonight’s “Downtown Breakaway” (A/BB/B) is a game-time go/no-go. Weather may be a concern and we will decide our plan at Mitchell Park. Safety first! . #bikeDC
I will miss you Frank! Thank you for selecting me in the draft in ‘83 as a Jazzman! You helped shape me as a player and a man. Godspeed Coach.👊🏾

2013 - Pam Bondi’s team at FL AG was set to join NY’s prosecution of Trump University — but Trump gave Bondi a $25,000 campaign check and the Trump U matter died 2025 - Bondi had the Epstein client list on her desk — but the matter has died What did Trump give Bondi this time?
Hey @limebike: this is absurd. There are 20 of your bikes crowding and overflowing a public bike rack on the 1300 block of 23rd Street NW, next to the N Street NW tennis courts. Please clean up this mess ASAP! . Attn: @DDOTDC @311DCgov #bikeDC

OK @NBCSports @peacock: if you can do picture-in-picture for the explainer bits, you can do it for ad breaks during @LeTour. The global feed (which you used to offer - bring it back!) does P-in-P for their profiles. Do better! . @TheFEEDme


Hey @peacock @NBCSports: if you have to run ads during @LeTour run them picture-in-picture! Missing key action because of the need to satisfy sponsor agreements is crappy coverage. And as I pay for Peacock Premium, shouldn't it be ad-free? #LeTour

Plainly put: billionaires don’t deserve ANY tax relief. Not a child tax credit. Not estate sheltering. Nothing. Tax them at 90 percent - or even at 48 percent which was the case under Reagan. They need to pay their fair share.
so who's primarying Jeffries and Schumer?
Bring back the Democratic Party that fights for fair tax policy. The scare tactics used to defend against asking the ultra-wealthy to pay their share is not rooted in facts. We heard this in DC a few years ago. “They’ll leave!” Guess what?! They didn’t. And, they’re still rich.
When NY taxed the rich, the number of millionaires *grew.* Tax flight is a right-wing myth. The only people leaving NYC in droves are working & middle-class New Yorkers who can't afford to live here.
