Okay, well the more time and energy he spends spinning himself into a tizzy about congestion pricing the less time and energy he for stomping around and destroying other achievements.

It was in his dumb post when he announced that congestion pricing was dead. Thanks to him. Long live the king, he ended.

What authority does he have to do this? This is a local issue. It’s like the speed limit issue back in the 70’s.

Exactly, just another expensed expense to the end consumer. And reason why businesses and family’s leave New York.

MTA is already suing the USDOT over this. Fact is, the commutes are MUCH more efficient now and people are pretty happy with the results. We should be doing it in DC too.

Another loss on the way for Trump. New Yorkers seem to have come around on the tolls and are enjoying the peace. The sad, scared suburban B&T crowd seems to be having a hard time with it, though. God forbid they have to mingle amongst the people on public transit!

He is even trying to influence the judge in Brazil tasked with sentencing of Bolsanaro, NYC is still within U.S limits, the insanity of this man is on another level.
