    my understanding is that NY needs federal approval for tolls involving interstate highways:

    In a letter to New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said that New York's congestion-priced cordon did not qualify for an exemption to the general federal prohibition on tolling interstates because it did not provide drivers a toll-free option and because its primary purpose was funding transit, not reducing congestion.

    on edit: turns out the FDR Drive and West Side Highway are both considered part of the interstate highway system, and those roads would act as a bypass of the congestion zone

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congestion_pricing_in_New_York_City#Federal_review

    also sounds like it could get pretty complicated legally, pretty quickly

    Trump’s Push to Kill Congestion Pricing Faces Tall Legal Hurdles
    The president made his power to shut down the tolling system sound absolute. But legal experts say the law may not be in his favor.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/19/nyregion/trump-congestion-pricing.html

    the good news in the long run is that Trump is actively trying to break the federal government, so at some point in the future it should no longer be possible for the Feds to be interfering in a state matter

    Starts at around 10 mins in but waffles a bit on immigration and tariffs. 16:28 on is a good listen for MAGA.

    Right now, Trumpers have the same mentality same as mass shooters or parents who commit murder-suicide with their kids. These social media comedians don't help and come off smug.

    Hilarious. Kash Patel who just admitted he got paid 5 million dollars from a Chinese tech company is the new head of the fbi. But the braindead MAGATs @Salvy @Os Trigonum told us hunter Biden getting paid by a Ukrainian businessman is the biggest corruption story ever



    Dumbest cult of all time

    I don't expect you to care or show any morals. Its just funny how you posted in the other thread that Hunter getting paid by Ukrainian businessman means the biggest corruption story ever but somehow the fbi director getting paid by China is totally fine

    None of you losers have any morals or values and you prove my point every day. Braindead low iq morons worshipping a conman

    Lotsa Central American and Eastern European "presidents" with the same hold on power used to say the same. Viva la revolution! Or maybe "Eyes Front - Not Left!" which I just googled was the slogan of the Bonus Army.
