Early this morning, the last pull in at Potrero Division before this Muni yard closes for years for a major reconstruction and expansion project.

This facility has been in operation for 111 years. The end of an era!

Janet Mills gets into spat with President Trump
Janet Mills gets into spat with President Trump YouTube video by WMTW-TV

Maine's governor Janet Mills has more courage and resolve than all of the pathetic, invertebrate, bootlicking Republican members of Congress put together. This is how you stand up to a weak, insecure bully. www.youtube.com/shorts/a5z4h...

"[A]ny assistant U.S. attorney would know that our laws and traditions do not allow using the prosecutorial power to influence other citizens, much less elected officials, in this way. If no lawyer within earshot of the President is willing to give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me."

Hagan Scotten's resignation from S.D.N.Y. refusing Emil Bove's corrupt, illegal, unethical demand that a motion be filed to seek dismissal (without prejudice, so that Trump can reserve the right to later refile and continue to maintain leverage) of the Eric Adams indictment.

Trump vows to pursue more defamation claims after ABC News settlement President-elect Donald Trump on Monday stepped up his legal threats against news outlets.

ABC was well positioned to prevail in Trump's defamation lawsuit. ABC had him in a corner but instead chose the path of cowardly capitulation and self-humiliation. Hopefully the Des Moines Register and Selzer choose a different path and stand up to bullying.

Gerry Connolly defeats AOC to become top Democrat on Oversight Committee Rep. Gerry Connolly of Virginia won election to serve as the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, defeating Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Democrats have a clear and serious problem with communication that needs to be rectified with immediate and continuous priority, starting yesterday. So, true to form, the party sidelines one of its most effective communicators, instead of elevating that voice to leadership.

I'm not holding my breath but still hope to live to see historic districts ban on-street parking of cars with modern designs that are incompatible with the prevailing architectural character that is being preserved.

It seems that the best case scenario for architecture review prose is SAT word mad libs, and then it goes downhill from there.
