Literally anything to hurt Americans.
These are enemies to the United States of America.

We would be fortunate if their sociopathy were limited by human borders.

Houston's Mayor John Whitmire has been on the warpath against any kind of public transit or pedestrian/bicycle pathways his entire time in office. The man is an absolute fucking menace.

Understandable. It's hard for the pedoprez to ride a bike when his pants are full of shit.

Okay, how are bike lanes intrinsically either (a) diverse, (b) equitable, or (c) diverse, in any way, shape, or form? Like, what logic are they even using here? It's like saying sidewalks are somehow partisan. (They [i]are[/i] political though, as they concern with legitimacy, normative behaviour, and intersubjective identity formation.)
I am genuinely so tired with this administration, and I'm not even a US American.
