Don’t tell anyone, but it is possible to never be in traffic in LA 👋✌️

Equivalent of a mayor in LA pedestrianizing Wilshire.
A momentous day for London. I’m so excited to see our plans to transform Oxford Street becoming a reality. And this is just the beginning.

Yup. Finally !
JUST IN: Los Angeles to begin activating 125 AI-powered speed cameras Monday, with violators facing fines of up to $500.

Leadership
A new era for the nation’s high street starts in two days. Nearly a kilometre of Oxford Street will become traffic-free, creating more space for people and marking the beginning of its biggest transformation in a generation.

in the 1930s hollenbeck park was considered the “jewel of Los Angeles” so naturally we built a freeway over it.

Half a block from my house. Horrible. Antisemitism must die. If you can please patronize Bella’s on Melrose tomorrow and show them some love as they try and recover.

I biked 2 miles on Melrose to dinner last night. Nearly every street light was out. Spooky — and dangerous. Thanks to @KarenBassLA wasting our money on a convention center and LAX roadway expansion, there’s no money to fix them.

This is amazing. @KarenBassLA thinks it's a negative thing to have the support of people who support bike lanes. As if wanting people to not die in our streets is the same as big oil supporting a candidate. Amazing insight into how Bass thinks about road safety and bike lanes.

Los Angeles is so so car brained that the Mayor attacks her rival by saying she’s backed by people who like bike lanes in the same way you’d normally attack someone for being backed by Big Oil or lobbyists lmao
Absolutely hilarious exchange here. Bass: "When we're talking about influence, there are very influential people who are supporting your campaign, who are very very much advocates for bike lanes." Raman: "Um...yes?"

We need age limits in all levels of government. This is insane.
JUST IN: Sen. Chuck Grassley, third in line for the U.S. presidency, files paperwork for reelection in 2028 — would be 101 by the end of his term.

CM Hutt is moving to explore what it would take to allow LADOT to install Toronto Style Barriers in-house to better protect bike lanes.

Make America Socialist Again
If Republicans win the House of Representatives and the Senate in the 2026 Midterm Elections, I’m going to give all adult citizens in the United States of America, $5,000! Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to signing those checks!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This repeats a promise Trump made in September 2026. The US has approximately 250 million adult citizens so the total cost would be over 1.25 trillion dollars. Congress must approve any such federal spending. nytimes.com/2026/09/10/us/… pbs.org/newshour/polit…

“The masses are asses”
I’ll take $5,000 dollars over socialism. It’s not a hard choice. Vote RED!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Opposing socialism on ideological grounds while simultaneously advocating for government-issued "free money" represents a contradiction, as state-funded monetary benefits are a form of public resource distribution rather than free-market capitalism. britannica.com/money/socialism

The US is so behind China with respect to transportation. It’s embarrassing and very sad.
China opens four new high-speed rail lines in the same day today. The world's largest HSR network keeps growing bigger. 1. Xiongan <-> Shangqiu: 552 km 2. Yichang <-> Xingshan: 101 km 3. Xi'an <-> Ankang: 171 km 4. Harbin <-> Yichun: 318 km
