Via @stevebenen:

Quite a quote from Eric Swalwell on the parade of GOP members attending #TrumpTrial this morning:

“I don’t think that anything could animate the phrase ‘do-nothing Congress’ more than missing votes and canceling hearings to go up and be a spectator at your cult leader’s trial.”



The beauty of this year’s Cherry blossoms are gone but the memory is strong

Long as day at work, midway through a longass week, but...

Tonight: Uncle Neil! Rain holding off so far at Forest Hills. "what a killer" to open (mere seconds after we got to our seats, pro!). Yeehaw!

Uh-oh.

"Soon after the portal began streaming, videos of inappropriate behavior began circulating online. These include people in Dublin holding up images of the 9/11 attacks to the camera, swear words and other inappropriate images displayed on phone screens, and people mooning at New York."

So I'm guessing that #NYCDOT decided to go with "20' combined travel and parking lane" because they wouldn't be able to justify 12' travel lanes (ie, highway-sized lanes).

But a 20' combined travel/parking lane *is* 8' parking and 12' travel lane. That's a choice. Just like it's also a choice to make a 2-way PBL with 4' wide bike lanes in each direction.

One instance of police violence captured at Hind's Hall was a cop in tan pants throwing a person down a flight of stairs.

This incident was caught from several angels and feels like the sort of thing there will likely be law suits over.

At columbia, protesters outside of the campus linked arms to block the gates. The NYPD arrested them one at a time with over whelming force.

The cops wore tan pants and busted out some custom built toys to raid Hind's Hall. Bc you gotta dress nice when you're at an Ivy League.

Cops were seen entering the building with guns drawn. They raided the building room by room with pistols drawn and at times carrying basaltic shields.

... Naturually I've still not seen any reports about any weapons charges etc. Feel like that would be a huge deal if the cops had actually found anything material to justify all this.... anyways.

I'm not the only one who thinks the cops were over board. Here's a cop himself telling a loved one about his day . . .

His previous text reads:

"I thought we fucking shot someone"

Given how amped up they were to be using the batman-esque entrance I can see why the cop above thought they might have killed somebody.

And again, have we EVER seen this level of force used on fascist protests?

There's a TON of footage of brutal take downs, cops dog piling people who are already down, and of course dragging them while beating the crap out of them to make it look like their reaction to being dragged is them "resisting".

But, first I think you should see this meme!

Over night hundreds of NYPD cops descended on Columbia's campus and other NYC universities.

#nypd continues to occupy the #columbia neighborhood in #nyc

Hard to capture the number of #nypd and cop cars of every size on every block from my bike.

And the #press covering how the protestors prevent folks from getting around … is itself occupying the public #bikenyc #citibike station actually interfering w peoples ability to get around.

It feels like it’s an occupied zone.

I am feeling shame and sadness this morning.


A nice building with the characteristic fire escape. I'm not entirely sure what the faded text on the building says. NYC.

Karma is something. It’s been exactly 35 years since five boys were arrested for things they did not do, then held for a vicious attack they did not commit. The evil thug who put out this 1989 ad against the five boys (now Exonerated Five) is NOW in a NYC courtroom ON TRIAL. #nyc #centralpark #exoneratedfive #Mastodon #BlackMastodon
