yeah also not including Platner’s quote about Hawley is not exactly good faith, so there you go!

Yeah, Platner actually offers a new direction for dems, one actually oriented on working people, can’t have that.

Super awesome that this facility is in the middle of urban Santa Fe and a few blocks from my house.

Also like how prohousers come with data and great stories about how more housing helps working people then a NIMBY is like “there will be rivers of sewage in the streets” and elected officials are like “thank you for both your important testimony tonight”

If the people in power won’t say it, put new people in power

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

When I worked in a governor’s office- these kind of calls really made a difference- do it!

A bunch of toxic LA NIMBYs are whining about SB 79, the amazing housing bill the CA legislature passed recently.

It's on the governor's desk, and reportedly he's getting cold feet. Hey @gavinnewsom.bsky.social, please have some spine on the most important issue in your state. Just sign it.
