A block in Fishtown didn’t qualify for a speed bump so neighbors tried installing their own Parents were concerned about traffic on a block that has 20 children under age 18.

Seems like getting safety improvements is a big hurdle but having them removed? Easy

I've seen a lot of chatter about how important it is to run for election workers/committee people in Philly, but I am begging everyone to get involved in your RCO too. RCOs have a surprising amount of power and a lot of influence with local officials and sometimes they aren't making good decisions!

Teach them young

He’s trying to make everyone — press & otherwise — think twice before criticizing him, for fear of a lawsuit or criminal prosecution, however frivolous.

This gets more dangerous by the hour.

This isn't going to get the attention of Columbia, but it's at least as bad: the University of Maine is having its funding cut off because the governor of Maine dared to challenge Trump.

Jay Young wants the city to be less safe, full stop.

One of the most revelatory things about visiting Tokyo was the lack of noise. Why? No one honks!

The new programming should be interesting

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Thought this was a good summary of the situation buttondown.com/sbagen/archi...

There has never been a larger gap in my (admittedly quite short) professional life between how lay folks and law profs are talking about what is happening in government right now. So much of what Trump is doing is just blatantly illegal — often in several ways at once.
