James Talarico’s basic diagnosis of American politics looks identical to me to that of AOC and Sanders

There’s something beautiful about riding public transit after a night like last night. Here’s to hoping we get our public realm back in this next phase of our governance. We are a better people when we share space together - schools, parks, transit, churches, and markets.

'In 1860, an enslaved man named Sheppard Peek was listed among the possessions of William Peek. His value was placed at $1400. More than a century and a half later, Sheppard’s great-great-granddaughter, Keisha Lance Bottoms, was elected governor of GA' ajc.com/politics/2026/11/kei…

South Broad Street was closed to traffic for so long during its renovation that, for some reason, I assumed it was going to be pedestrianized. I was apparently wrong. It's a mess of street parking and traffic now. I hope the City does the right thing and closes this to cars.

I found this gem from an internal @TheCurbMarket newsletter from April 2015. Oh what could have been Atlanta, what could have been. #streetcar

Literally Hartsfield-Jackson but apparently it’s “confusing”

Our streets should be designed to prevent this. Sadly this is where MARTA has designed it's first BRT route. The only thing preventing cars from doing this all of the time is traffic. We need to design better streets - where this can't happen. Especially on a transit route.

This is how you build a bike lane if you’re serious about it.

Nice! It looks like MARTA is testing out the new Bus Rapid Transit vehicles for the Summerhill line. Spotted this evening on Mitchell Street. – at Atlanta, GA

OK - serious question here. This officer believes that this is a legitimate parking spot because of the curb cut out. I asked him, why not park in the garage across the street and he insisted this was a legal spot. So - is this legal? @GeorgiaStatePat

Atlanta, take a bow. Organizers, stadium staff, state/local governments and police, MARTA - everyone made this an unqualified success for our city.

Really don’t understand how people think this is worse than it getting dark before even getting a chance to get home from work. And the kids going to school in the dark doesn’t hold weight either - elementary school starts before sunrise for months in Atlanta
This will be such a nightmare.

Our streets are some of our most valuable public land. I love it when they are used for more than just cars! Great job DOT - keep doing this.
Heading near the stadium tomorrow or Wednesday? Plan ahead! 
To keep everyone safe during heavy foot traffic, roads around the stadium perimeter will be closed to vehicles on July 14th and 15th from 10:00 AM to 12:30 AM.
 Travel Safely, ATL!

Man... if only Atlanta would take a hint and extend its streetcar, as has been planned for over a decade now....
Replying to @JosephPolitano
This month, we got our first data on the Kansas City Streetcar riverfront extension that opened mid-May—in combination with the main street extension to UMKC, ridership has more than doubled compared to last year! The system now has more ridership than the Portland streetcars

Thierry and Zlatan saying they wouldn't have become soccer players because of the costs of the American youth system, then seeing Lalas say it's a great system because it makes a lot of money for some people really sums it all up nicely
