This is awesome. As an organizer in Chicago, I have met and talked to way too many people who push the lie that pedestrian and bike safety is bad - for business and for residents. We need better media to help push against the lies. And Urban Truth seems like just the thing we need.

For Trump, every crisis he creates turns into a new distraction.

Healthcare losses- tear down East Wing
Epstein Files- bomb Iran (Part 1)
ICE kills Americans- invade Venezuela
Epstein Files- bomb Iran (Part 2)
Tens of thousands of jobs lost- Cuba!

Donald Trump made trade threats against Spain during an Oval Office meeting with reporters and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. (ANDREW CABALLERO-REYNOLDS / AFP VIA GETTY IMAGES)

Trump: "Spain said we can't use their bases. We could use their bases if we want. We could just fly in and use it. Nobody is gonna tell us not to use it"

Not receiving consent and moving forward anyway is a consistent theme in his life — as E. Jean Carroll can attest

The cover of The Complete Persepolis by Marianne Satrapi.

Now would be a good time for anyone who wants to learn about recent Iranian history to read this. It is well worth your time and money (I am sure your local library has it if you don’t want to purchase it).

Here's a Jan. 6 rioter posing with a press pass before Pete Hegseth's press conference, just to give you a sense of the type of "journalists" who were in the Pentagon briefing room this morning.

Worth noting that on a different website, multiple ABC Vancouver officials follow accounts that post constantly about how Sean Orr is a terrible human being and make all sorts of unproven claims, including one account that creates AI videos of Orr doing all sorts of illegal or evil acts

The irony of lying about stopping 8 wars when he bombed Somalia, Nigeria, Iran, Yemen, Venezuela, Syria, Iraq and threatened Panama, Canada, Mexico, Greenland and more is just ludicrous to me man. It's the worst gaslighting of all time.

Tight central Barcelona pedestrian street with limited car access Barcelona public space/square connecting several pedestrian streets in a walking quarter Pedestrian street with a mid-block urban movie cinema Walkable pedestrian street filled with the people in central Barcelona, Spain

I often think about how so many cities are AGONIZING over the idea of turning a single street, or even a block, into a people-place and pedestrian stroll, while thriving communities like Gràcia in Barcelona are filled with networks of pedestrian streets and squares with no cars, or “tamed” cars.

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."

Tonight, Vancouver council will have a public hearing for a school 19 years in the making

There's some community opposition to the project — but there's also the bigger question of why it takes the provincial and municipal governments 19 years to approve a single school

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.

BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned

NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

Seven people in the high school, not including the shooter, are now confirmed dead.

Two additional people have been found dead at a location believed to be connected to the shooting.

Just unspeakably awful.
