The very foundation of how speech on the internet is under scrutiny. With the potential for major changes on the horizon, what will the future of free speech be on the internet? How can we balance platform integrity with digital free expression?

For our fifth panel of the day, Representative @RepJimCosta, Oregon State Treasurer @TobiasRead, and @ppavnr will join @BudgetBen for a discussion about why young Americans should care more about fiscal issues like inflation and the national debt.

LA spent $200k to put a piece of metal on a pole at a bus stop.

Meanwhile, it only took our Houston chapter (@HoustonLibs) 6 months to work with the Houston Metro Authority to install benches at bus stops without them, at a cost of only $60/bench. ImageImageImage
@HoustonLibs We did this poll yesterday to test the waters, and help prove the point we're making here. While the La Sombrita fiasco is absolutely emblematic of nonprofit grifting, it's not inherently bad to have a nonprofit work with the government to provide a good or service. Image
The Center for New Liberalism, and all our chapters, are a nonprofit ourselves. Our Houston chapter reached worked with the Houston Metro Authority to install these benches, in a timely manner and at low-cost!

Shill Bracket update:

The shill bracket championship matchup between @besttrousers and @JosephPolitano has (once again) experienced high levels of obvious botting.

We've decided that if people are determined to game the system, we'll at least make it for a good cause.
The championship will be decided by a 24-hour charity drive run off. Linked below are two donation pages to @AgainstMalaria, one for Matt and one for Joey. Whichever has the higher donation amount 24 hours from now wins.
Donate here to 'vote' for @besttrousers:

This twitter back and forth is a *perfect* distillation of how progressives alienate potential allies and lose elections
Normie: "Maybe we should respond to the things voters very obviously care about, like inflation"

Prog activist: "You personally are problematic for pointing this out. What don't need to focus on inflation, we need more activist chum events hosted by me. So educate yourself."
The theory of change here seems to be "if we hold enough events with twitter elites about Jan 6th and how democracy is in danger" people will stop caring about crime and inflation". This is activist chum with no connection to real world politics.

The National Environmental Policy Act has come under fire for actually making it harder to do pro-environment projects.

Here's a thread of projects NEPA has delayed or killed, each one explicitly pro-environment (green energy, mass transit, env. rehabilitation/protection, etc).
I should warn you ahead of time: this list is long, and you will hate NEPA deep in your soul by the end of it.
Congestion pricing in NYC was delayed by NEPA.

We have to be able to build things faster and more cheaply than this. It's a failure of policy that we can't. And the most progressive cities and states are often the worst offenders.

nytimes.com/2022/08/31/nyr…
These responses are *infuriating*.

It's announced the project is going to be $2B over budget (so far) and another three years late (on an already VERY long timeline)… and nobody cares. Nobody's mad. This is normal, fine.

Our capacity to build in progressive areas is pathetic.
There will be New Yorkers who meet, get married, have a child, and HAVE THAT CHILD GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL in between the time Amtrak warned we need to fix that tunnel and it's final fixing and reopening.

In light of the Supreme Court's decision to strike down Roe v. Wade, we have added a new statement to our "What We Believe" business card: the right to bodily autonomy. We have always believed this, but now want to make it explicit.

🧵 on this change and other updates we made Image
We've changed "Deregulating barriers to housing and employment" to "Abundant housing and abundant jobs".

Especially with housing, we still believe that deregulating zoning is key. But the actual goal is abundant housing and good jobs for everyone, however we can get there.
We've changed "Immediate criminal justice reform" to "Criminal justice reform and safe communities"

Criminal justice reform has always been a key concern for us - we wrote the first version before BLM became a national movement, and also before the current crime wave.
