This comes a few years after the Ontario government passed legislation that requires municipalities to ask the province for approval to install bike lanes, if the installation could remove a vehicular lane. Hear what people think are the wins and losses of the court decision.

Have Canadian cities gone too far with bike lanes?  Few people are against cycling—but in a country with long, cold winters, does it make sense to spend millions on bike infrastructure and dedicate so much valuable road space to something many people can't use year-round?  Are bike lanes improving safety, or creating new problems for traffic, deliveries, businesses, parking and emergency access? And who are they really serving?  Join David Leis with Marty Gold, Cory Morgan, and economist Randal O'Toole to ask whether Canada's bike-lane push makes sense or whether cities have simply gone too far. 

Nate Eaton joins Grace to discuss the closing arguments and estimate how long the jury deliberation will take.

Dumb Bleep of the Week (Part 2): Epstein Files Spin, Tariff "Emergency" Tricks, SAVE Act Drama, and Surveillance Ads Nate and Chuck host Part 2 of "Dumb Bleep of the Week," reacting to several political and cultural stories. They revisit the Epstein/Massie/Pam Bondi discourse, criticizing a MAGA post claiming the "full Epstein files" were released, noting the DOJ has released 3.5 million of roughly 6 million pages and discussing controversy over unredacting names of innocent people. They mock the idea of an "Epstein list" as merely a database of any name appearing in documents and point out both Thomas Massey and online personalities like "cat turd" appear for non-incriminating reasons. They then cover House maneuvering around Trump's tariffs and the National Emergencies Act, highlighting a GOP effort to redefine "calendar days" so Congress can avoid the required 15-day vote to terminate an emergency. Next, they discuss claims that Massie voted against advancing the SAVE Act, explaining he opposed a rule package that also suspended the 24-hour notice requirement for spending bills; they note Massie later voted for the SAVE Act itself. They critique Rep. Susie Lee's video opposing the SAVE Act and discuss broader ID/citizenship and election trust arguments. Other segments include Ilhan Omar's Epstein-related jab at Trump and commentary about Somalia's laws; Los Angeles halting street repaving to avoid triggering Measure HLA's mandatory bike-lane and "road diet" requirements; California's "jock tax," including reporting that Sam Darnold could net a loss after winning a Super Bowl bonus due to duty-day taxation; a Maryland squatter story involving a $2.3 million home; and a New York clip of a speaker advocating taxing millionaires and even making it illegal for them to leave. They close with criticism of Ring's Super Bowl ad promoting AI-powered neighborhood camera searches for lost pets and mention Ring canceling its partnership with Flock Safety amid backlash.
