He’s not the leader of the Free World. He’s the leader of the US. The Free World has moved on and is leaving you behind.
Bye America! đź‘‹

How Presidential 🙄
Doesn’t the US have the 25th amendment or something to deal with this?
I recently learned that a more robust version of the Citadis exists, the Regio Citadis which is a 70% low floor version. It’s used in Kassel Germany and The Hague. It was designed to run on mainline rail lines so has more robust wheels etc. Would be a good permanent solution to our problems.
Anything after the words “Trump says” can safely be ignored since they’re almost always lies.
Trump is not a source.
Yep, and it’s exactly why we won’t be traveling to the US anytime soon!
The aurora last night from our house.
Dude is Nostradamus when it comes to predicting his own administration’s failures.
I am now going to drive my partner to her friend’s place because she quite reasonably doesn’t want to waste an hour waiting for two buses.
The #20 only runs every hour! With infrequency like that why even bother running a bus at all! It’d be quicker to walk!
No wonder ridership is always dropping!
@octranspo.com how is a bus (#41) running every half hour considered “frequent” by you people?
You realize people need to get around the city when it’s not rush hour right?
Why are “frequent” buses running so infrequently on evenings and weekends when people need to go do stuff?!
I thought the US was big and powerful and didn’t need any help?
He threatened to invade us and now he wants our help to wage an elective war he started? Get bent!
Dementia Don shouldn’t have started a fight he can’t finish.
Iron ore can be turned into steel without coal. Hydrogen and electricity can be used instead.
But universal healthcare is apparently “unaffordable”.
How are they going to fund this war?? Where is that money going to come from?
Rising gas prices got you down?
EVs are cheaper to own, nicer to drive, and now cost the same as their equivalent gas vehicles.
Time to dump the pump and go electric.
Chicken and waffles foreign policy.
Has any man at the very rear of his army *ever* projected such sad main character energy?
It's almost like he wants us to forget he's a draft-dodger who called our soldiers "losers" and "suckers" and plotted illegal wars of the sort he got elected promising to avoid while demanding a peace prize
Millionaires stopped paying into Social Security for the rest of 2026 today.
Billionaires stopped paying in on January 1st.
You're going to pay in for 298 more days.
This makes zero sense. The wealthy should pay in all year like the rest of us.
Scrap the cap.
@mayormarksutcliffe.bsky.social the 7:14 44 to Hurdman (stop 1087 Walkley) did not come once again.
When can we expect buses to actually run reliably and dependably? It’s rush hour and we can’t even use to bus to get to work on time! How is this acceptable?!
General Motors, Ford and other established automakers risk becoming relics if they don’t catch up to Chinese carmakers and technology companies in electric vehicles and self-driving cars. Great story by @jackewingnyt.bsky.social

Operation Epstein Fury
I see this as a “yes, and” thing. We need to transition to EVs, AND we need to improve active transportation infrastructure. We can do both at the same time.
It took a century to make our cities car-dependent hellscapes. It will take time to undo that damage. We’ll still need cars for a while.
Operation “Epstein Fury”.
That’s what some people in the Pentagon are calling it. The evangelicals want to bring about the end times. Dementia Don is an atheist and wants to distract from the Epstein files.
Their motives are aligned.
The US Secretary of War Crimes is batshit crazy.
He apparently sees this as some holy war and a way to bring back the baby Jesus or something.
Fucking evangelicals and their imaginary sky daddy.

Probably not troops. I haven’t read or seen any reports of US ground forces being mobilized. Likely stuff like food, fuel and ammo.
So-called “AI’s” aren’t intelligent and cannot think. Don’t fall for the hype.

I’m glad Canada is more similar to Norway in this regard than it is to the Divided States of America.

Yet another sad reminder that there is a two-tiered justice system in America: One for the rich. Another for everyone else.
If elites can be held accountable in other parts of the world, why can't they be held accountable in America?
