Masterful Gaslighting
The Republican party is closing ranks now. Days after what is now starting to be understood as a serious, planned takeover of the US Capitol, at the express direction of Trump, we start to see how it’s going to play out.Β Admit to a small thing like “poor leadership”, but reject the principle point the US president is a madman who is trying to overthrow his own government.
President Trump showed extremely poor leadership on Wednesday, but there is no good Constitutional argument for impeachment. Speaker Pelosi knows the Senate will not try this case before the President leaves office. Impeachment will only worsen divisions, rather than uniting us.

This is the result of American cities and states ignoring their duties to maintain their infrastructure. Scenes ike this are an embarrassing reminder that the US has fallen further behind nearly all other wealthy nations that are regularly improving their citizen's #Mobility.
Just landed back in NYC after a trip abroad and this is the scene from my Uber heading out of JFK.

Does the @GOP have actual death milestones they wish to achieve?
Okay, all, you get one guess as to which state's GOP governor wants to run for POTUS in 2024, and therefore let a massive unmasked motorcycle festival involving thousands and thousands of people occur unimpeded, causing a sixfold increase in her state's COVID-19 infection numbers

Rest in Peace. You changed the entire world forever with your perfect, calm backbeat.

Typical #marketing, convincing people (men) that conquering (the road?), intimidating (other drivers?), and thrilling (who?) has anything to do with #transportation. When #motorsports moved from the track to the street, this was inevitable. #dailylinks

Read this one on a quiet morning with a hot beverage...and have a think about what was lost for the sake of the hydro dam. I've been to #LakePowell and Glenn Canyon, and the views are amazing. #dailylinks
