I pulled Denver's traffic incident data into a DB and loaded it all up into Metabase. Very much a work in progress, but this is pretty bleak stuff. COVID skews the trend quite a bit if you go back to the beginning of the data, so these charts start in ~March 2020.

I believe Trump also works as an adjective moving forward.

This lack of political acumen is unacceptable in the sen minority leader. Mitch has been walking him through the how-to-obstruct playbook for years.

Also-you and your colleagues should go down there in person to show your support and block Musk’s access.

Congressman @beyer.house.gov will be going to USAID today with colleagues to shine a light on what is happening there, I think others will join us. Figuring out details now and will share but flagging now for press and public in the area

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Listen up! @indivisible.org protest at Treasury Building, Washington DC, Tuesday February 4, at 5 pm EST. If you are able to get there, go!
But first call senators and tell them to vote no on Project 2025 author Russell Vought for OMB. #NobodyWantsThis

It’s official: Elon Musk’s staffers have now illegally obtained classified information from the USAID office.

Here’s a recap of what’s happening:

@warren.senate.gov we need you to use cameras and physical bodies.
No secrets. Schumer is weak. You, @sanders.senate.gov , @aoc.bsky.social and @jasmineforus.bsky.social along with an honorable mention for my home state dudes @wyden.senate.gov and @jeff-merkley.bsky.social need to band together

my big take-away from the indivisible call is that blocking vought's nomination is possible—4 republicans need to flip, & they are nervous. they know project 2025 is unpopular and will adversely affect their constituents. turn up the heat, make them sweat.

Elon Musk’s Team Now Has Full Access to Treasury’s Payments System

All of your most sensitive data and our country’s checkbook are in the hands of an unelected billionaire.

This is the most corrupt administration in history and it’s putting our economy & government in serious jeopardy.

It’s time to speak out and fight back.

It’s a coup. That’s what’s happening. It doesn’t matter if it’s only been two weeks. Impeachable offenses aren’t like wine. They don’t need to age.

White House pauses all federal grants, sparking confusion The Trump administration has put a hold on all federal financial grants and loans, affecting tens of billions of dollars in payments.

Congressional appropriations bills are the law and President Trump does not have the power to unilaterally block these funds from being spent.

This maneuver is blatantly illegal and will harm every state, city, organization and individual in the country.
