Brooklyn, NY
ICYMI the biggest news of the week was buried in Tuesday's @StreetsblogNYC article on @NYC_DOT regulatory delays. I'm thrilled to announce I've joined the law practice of safe-streets legal legend Adam White! Please reach out for all your bike and pedestrian litigation needs.

Corruption and incompetence
A member just asked how—if there are 1,142 eligible voters here (in person + proxies)—did 1,240 people supposedly vote for AD 42 vacancy appointments? The Chair is continuing to the next vote without answering the question.

Oral argument for @newkingsdems lawsuit against @bkdems Court: Are you suggesting that anyone previously elected can vote in perpetuity? As long as they were elected in a prior election they can continue to vote? Hearing a lot of skepticism of the defendants arguments

Such a joke
Update from the BK Democratic County Committee mtg, which was supposed to start at 10 am: The meeting was briefly called to order at 1:33 pm and then recessed until 2 pm to address ongoing, massive discrepancies in proxy registrations and delays in distributing voting clickers.

Very disrespectful of 9-11 families to suggest they should have to deal with filthy streets because drivers are lazy babies

Should have won a Pulitzer
the most moving piece of art to come from 9/11 is still this article from The Onion

The entire issue that The Onion put out after 9/11 was incredible. Those who didn’t live through it can’t imagine what it was like to have a good laugh after that. “Hijackers Surprised to Find Selves in Hell” is etched into my memory.
this onion article is somehow the most haunting and tender piece of media to come out of 9/11 Not Knowing What Else To Do, Woman Bakes American-Flag Cake theonion.com/not-knowing-wha…

“This is very sloppy,” said @BrandonWC a bike- & pedestrian-focused lawyer at @adamlaw50. “This just goes to show that he’s just trying to shut down all protected bike lanes where he can I guess convince some local businesses to put money in his pockets.” nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/09/…

Yesterday, I emailed the Alien Terrorist Removal Court's clerk and media liaison asking them to post the court's rules since they did not seem to be freely available online. I checked back today, and they've been posted! @SeamusHughes atrc.uscourts.gov/rules-poli…

If these people were legit, they’d just send in their tax return or drivers license instead of wasting an August afternoon holding up signs paid for by people that make a living selling pied-à-terres.
