โ€œCopenhagen reported that 62% of its residents are now commuting to work or school by bike โ€” an increase from 52% in 2015 & 36% in 2012, when the City Council launched a 14-year-plan to improve the quality, safety & comfort of cycling.โ€ Copenhagen chose. latimes.com/world-nation/stoโ€ฆ

The REAL story on Pam Bondi, Trump University, and Trump's $25,000 payment to Bondi: 1/ In August 2013, I was at the NY AG, and Bondi was Florida AG. On August 24, 2013, I filed the NY AG's prosecution of Trump University and Donald Trump, for $42 million in fraud. ๐Ÿงต

Bluesky is rapidly growing. I like it. Nobody pushes his stuff onto me.
BlueSky is still small and a bit of a bubble. But there are many good reasons for being on BlueSky too. It feels almost exactly like twitter but under the hood it has some substantial improvements.

Hereโ€™s a video produced by โ€œLed by Donkeysโ€ out of the U.K. that puts down the timeline of how Musk used X to get Donald Trump elected. I would save it because I donโ€™t think it will be up for long.

This staggering graph just published by the United Nations shows the ages of people killed by Israel in Gaza. The base of this "pyramid" of death are babies and toddlers. This is not a war, it is a massacre of innocents.

A century ago, Germanyโ€™s democracy was hijacked by a bombastic and charismatic tyrant โ€” and in this five-minute video, youโ€™ll learn how he did it. Why did I produce this? Because I believe that history is speaking to us, and all too often, those who refuse to learn from it are doomed to repeat it. As you watch, imagine filling out a Bingo card filled with Germany 1933/USA 2024 parallels: big rallies, rage-filled and hateful rhetoric, simple answers promising quick and easy solutions to complicated problems, empty promises of a great-again future, scapegoating outsiders, and political enemies silenced on day one. And notice the caring wisdom and concern from my German friends as they share these lessons from their dark history. Itโ€™s hard to understand how Trump could, on the eve of a tight election, paint a picture of Liz Cheney before a firing squad by actually saying, โ€œLetโ€™s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK? And letโ€™s see how she feels about it when the guns are trained on her face.โ€ You canโ€™t get into the mind of a dictator with an insatiable appetite for power โ€” but you can recognize the playbook they all seem to follow. Just watch this clip. Itโ€™s excerpted from my hourlong public television special โ€œThe Story of Fascism in Europe,โ€ which is streaming free (and ad-free) at ricksteves.com/fascism. If you care about our democracy and love our country, itโ€™s hard to stop watching. When I produced this in 2018, I hoped this day would never come in our country. But November 5th is upon us. Please share this with anyone in your life who might need a reminder that the stakes are high...and this is very real.
