Type of press conference where you can almost see him trying to figure out when he was going to have to sit in front of a committee on the hill

But like "what happens to EUS" is one of the biggest open questions this press conference raises by dint of holding it, that and Gateway!

Damn, Mayor Parker might as well throw something at the wall to see if President Deals bites on the 30th Street District. Maybe something happens, maybe not but he tends to agree with the last person he spoke to so maybe she sneaks something through that the administration gets stuck doing

He's not a Senator persay because thats not how the Senate works. He's a representative of a Community of Interest, really meaning Padme brought him in to be another lobbyist for her, but Star Wars media keeps piling all these series and events onto characters that feels too busy

Now, this is sort of interesting that even among the Republic there were people kinda worried about Palpatine's abuses of laborers on remote planets to supply the Clone Army, and it makes sense to pivot that into the Rebel Alliance.

BUT WHERE DOES JAR JAR HAVE THE TIME?

So anyway, here's the new Jar Jar Binks comic they're writing seeming to imply that the signals network prominently featured in Andor being started very early in the Clone Wars by Jar Jar Binks alongside a random Jedi, who somehow had the time to be a hero of labor... I guess

SEPTA's board is set to award the Ambler Station redevelopment opportunity to Korman Communities and Benchmark Real Estate
No details on what they specifically plan but the initial ground lease is worth $402,500/year

What I can't tell is if they delinked things because they've made changes to the plan, or if stuff like the remix map broke. On the map, a bunch of frequent network routes weren't shown as such anymore (98, 113, 37), and the frequency of the 112 was cut compared to the flipbook they also had linked

The Bus Revolution page on SEPTA's website confirms the new network is set to roll out starting in Fall '26 and it looks like they're doing another round of open houses, likely assuming a lot of riders forgot about this during the transit tribulations. It's also much more minimalist now for reasons

In conclusion, it is now obvious that they have recently jack up the President on a new dose of his uppers. He gets like this the few days after until he mellows out too much a needs a new dose

Like getting to cut a ribbon in front of a bunch of guys in high vis, hard hats, and trucker hats, in a swing state, no less? And all he had to do was just sign the paperwork to authorize a border crossing in his first term?

Anyway, this is an example of one of the funniest Trumpisms, where he has an opportunity for an excellent photo op at the grand opening of a generational infrastructure project he never had to worry about during construction and he still finds a way to throw a tantrum

Skip the Stanley Cup stuff, but is he really threatening to try and stop the Gordie Howe Bridge from opening?

What are Berkshire Hathaway and the Moroun heirs really that worried about the Ambassador Bridge being put out of business they got the President riled up

Other Pa. transit systems are dealing with the fiscal crunch that hit SEPTA last year

Most of the state’s 33 smaller public transit systems are now are facing unpleasant belt-tightening choices amid rising costs and years of underfunding from Harrisburg.

Looks like the Chinatown Stitch is *officially* disrupted. The Reconnecting Communities money for construction and engineering is getting struck for the TIP, but the engineering money is being replaced with National Highway Performance Program money and local(?) funds

We knew they'd have to do something about it, but this appears to confirm they'd like to have as much work done as possible sans shovels in the ground in case they can put money together
