I’ll be interested to learn more details about this but on its face I think the right call from Biden. https://t.co/6aRuhOBQME — PolitiTweet.org

House Republicans seem weirdly indifferent to the interests of the frontline members whose ability to win races is the whole basis of their ability to do Hunter Biden investigations or whatever — do those people want shutdowns and debt ceiling brinksmanship? Does that help them? — PolitiTweet.org

Of course a sole focus on ridership would leave out other things, but in practice in contemporary American conditions ridership is a very good proxy for pollution benefits, socioeconomic equity, and economic growth. https://t.co/z0tRpu1WJy https://t.co/rFZYYdNPZb — PolitiTweet.org

If agencies are touting small business benefits and creation of good-paying jobs then of course they’re not going to deliver timely, cost-effective projects. https://t.co/z0tRpu1oU0 https://t.co/vT9REesoXF — PolitiTweet.org

If you have a mandate to use money to increase ridership then you have a coherent reason to say no to low-value add-ons (it won’t increase ridership) and dollars will naturally flow to whichever jurisdictions actually focus on cost-effectiveness. https://t.co/z0tRpu1oU0 — PolitiTweet.org

There’s now been a lot of work done on the specific elements of US transit construction cost bloat, but in today’s Slow Boring I want to talk about a top-down meta-cause — transit funding streams should tell agencies to focus on maximizing ridership. https://t.co/z0tRpu1oU0 — PolitiTweet.org

Ellmers ended up getting redistricted into an incumbent-on-incumbent race in the 2016 primary cycle. Conservatives backed her opponent because she was allegedly too moderate on issues like the Export-Import Bank. Trump endorsed Ellmers but she lost. — PolitiTweet.org

For those who don’t know, back when John Boehner stepped down the heir apparent was Kevin McCarthy but he couldn’t get over the top — the press wouldn’t really report the reason which is that people thought he was having an affair with then-Rep Ellmers. — PolitiTweet.org
