Raja is an absolutely terrible choice folks.
🟥 Red, 🟪 Purple, and 🟫 Brown Line trains are standing near Belmont due to signal problems. Crews working to restore service.
not everything is a pivot to economics
Deeply unserious for sticking with the Kelly endorsement in a FPTP system
Schumer backs Trump.

Choosing to single out the general strike thing feels like missing the forest for the trees to me.
I think you’re continuing to be too harsh on her. She might not do it in the exact same manner as you or I would like, but I thought we wanted more fighters more than anything? She is 100% a fighter and a straightforward/genuine communicator. Like AOC in 2018.
Wait until you see the average Chicago driver
More evidence we need RCV. But yes, Stratton is a must to block Raja
When candidates like Raja Krishnamoorthi & Brendan Reilly say “abolish Trump’s ICE,” they don’t actually mean “Abolish ICE.”
Don’t be fooled by the spin. You cannot reform the American Gestapo.
When you vote, make sure you’re voting to PERMANENTLY Abolish ICE
Raja notably was only polling in the 30s DESPITE this massive advantage he’s had for so long. And clearly it’s starting to fade — in large part because he’s such an underwhelming candidate.
Poll has Stratton within 2 points of Raja.
Keep consolidating. A vote for Kelly or Ryan is a vote for Raja.

"We are dealing now with an allegation that the president of the US raped and sexually assaulted a child and is now using his DOJ to try to cover that up."
If you want to understand latest Epstein revelations, @leahlitman.bsky.social explains them clearly on our pod:

NEW: The New York Times confirms my reporting that the DOJ is withholding several FBI interviews with a woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her as a child

Seems like Kam Buckner is leading the charge here, who I have confidence in to do the right thing! Wish he was our Mayor right now
What gives me hope is that it’s Kam Buckner pushing for Waymo implementation, who is about as pro-transit as you can get
as a War on Cars guy, on the one hand, yes, self-driving cars will lock us into greater car dependence. but on the other hand, they might actually stop at stop signs, something for which a distressing proportion of human drivers seem to have become Too Cool
(I realize that loses the punny aspect)
Or “Prosecute ICE”
Name this one “Abolish ICE” too
Gotta get rid of the Scott Waguepacks of the world
I’m with you on that. Hopefully the primary in a few weeks leads to better state legislators and then we can get a better city council next year.
I wish we could have good faith conversations on this site. I understand the fears over it but I truly think the pros outweigh the cons for Waymos! (just regulate them heavily)
Chicago drivers hit pedestrians a half dozen times every day
I was thinking to myself “this is going to be a great opportunity for people to talk about how Chicago drivers are uniquely bad, which is also true of everywhere else” and lo and behold I see it twice in the QTs
Planting my pro Waymo flag
Donald Trump killed two of my constituents. He is a liar and should be ashamed of himself.
I just feel like a democrat standing up and shouting "fuck trump" would receive massive donations and would be undefeatable in the midterms and I just wish that these incentives were sufficient to overcome what seems to be an infinite dead weight of respectability.
