Honestly makes me angry that foreign actors have effectively been destroying our democracy and discourse and American politicians and billionaire social media execs had an easy, obvious method to combat it, but chose not to till now.

The Twitter country transparency feature is helping me realize the anti-trans animosity is not as prevalent in the US as people believe. Been checking popular anti-trans posts, including Joe Rogan clip. Essentially every comment from verified users came from people using VPNs or from another country
My latest for the @nytimes.com --- A wave of small and midsize cities are betting on stadiums anchoring mixed-use development as engines of growth. But the mixed-use ambitions often fade or slow once the games start. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/r...

We've confirmed the US Bureau of Prisons has transferred trans women to men's prisons despite three court rulings blocking Trump's executive order
βIβm continuing to be punished for existing. I'm a pawn in others' political games" -Whitney, 31-year-old woman taken to men's prison this week, told us
Thanks Kriston!
I know this opinion will get me cancelled but I, for one, think itβs wrong to discriminate against populations many have deemed undesirable β even itβs just 10 kids who want to play sports with their friends amp.cnn.com/cnn/2022/04/...
Thank you Caitlin!

Sylvester Turner was largely responsible for reducing Houston's homelessness population by more than 60% over the course of a decade --- by overseeing a housing first model that other cities are now emulating. www.smartcitiesdive.com/news/houston...

Nice seeing children of billionaires represented in politics
Off the record must be agreed upon by both sides. Especially with comms people who should know better
Solving homelessness is an attainable goal that Democrats could realistically achieve if they prioritize it. Same with solving the housing crisis.
It's a big, bold agenda that will set them apart and tell a story about how they are working for the American people, not the billionaires.
The Democrats: We will raise taxes for billionaires to FDR levels. Take on those companies and billionaires by breaking up monopolies and holding them accountable for screwing over the public (as they were doing under Lina Kahn). And we will use that money to solve homelessness and housing
Everything the Republicans are doing right now under Trump. The hostile takeover of the government should be tied back to enriching billionaires taking over the government. They are for them, not you.
The Democrats' messaging: One party's been bought by billionaires serving themselves through oppression, fear and more poverty
Democrats will solve homelessness & crime, by lifting people up, not locking them away. Giving everyone a chance to buy a home, start a family & build generational wealth
Visible homelessness, crime, and cost of housing are top of minds of voters. Housing first achieves all those things.
The homeless person hooked on drugs attacking people on the subway. They are given stable housing and resources needed to overcome addiction and deal with mental health challenges
How are Democrats not running on solving homelessness and the high cost of housing? There's a proven template in Houston of solving homelessness through housing first. There's a plan with Build Back Better on how to solve the housing crisis.
This is what happens when tax cuts for oligarchs supercede public safety.
104 United Airlines passengers were evacuated after a fire on the wing appeared before take off. Last week Trump fired the heads of the TSA and Coast Guard, and disbanded the Aviation Security Committee and froze TSA hiring.
As a trans woman, a lot of the EOs have been tough and scaryβ¦ Iβm not sure why, but this one really hits hard. Just makes me sad

I've collected accounts from trans folks inside US prisons facing Trump's brutal crackdown: trans women rounded up + placed in solitary before transfer to men's prisons; canceled medical appointments + loss of vital healthcare; vicious taunting
"You're going to be a man," one guard told trans women
Also, Tyler Prince looks like Pete Buttigieg
Thereβs a lot of parallels between Sydney White (2007, starring Amanda Bynes) and todayβs political environment β and the populist (anti-oligarchic) messaging Dems could take into the 2028 election youtu.be/N-Hua-wJzVc?...
Just an FYI, it's easy for Jamie Dimon and his company to "get over it" when it comes to increased costs because he's a billionaire and his firm will soon become richer when Trump's new tax plan passes. www.cnn.com/2019/04/04/b...
More work is needed to address climate change as cities and states are battling extreme weather, former President Joe Biden said at a mayor's conference. Pete Buttigieg also spoke at the event, which was covered for Smart Cities Dive by contributor @daniellebmclean.bsky.social bit.ly/40KJcmp
