@uhshanti You know what won’t help? DSAers in one part of the country doing simplistic analysis about another very different part of the country and ignorantly attacking comrades.
Not to beat up on this girl more than the comments already have, but this is a great example of how a hating billionaires is not the same as class consciousness.
The audio mix is WAY off on the @MLB broadcast, @AppleTV. When there is any stadium noise at all, we can’t hear the commentary. @DTrainMLB is impossible to hear.
I don't want to hear fuck all about how you support social housing when you want to gut one of the only sources of social housing funding in the state and have zero ideas or interest in replacing it! I don't believe you!
LA Council Committee reviewing the city's mansion tax/Measure ULA decides NOT to recommend a November ballot measure to make changes. Chair @YsabelJuradoLA says it's too early to evaluate the tax's long-term effects.
If this was a blind ballot and you only saw a campaign's backers, which side would you pick?
But this isn't a hypothetical.
On the left are Xavier Becerra's backers.
Tom Steyer's endorsements on the right.
NEW: I reviewed the polls that @lxeagle17 relied on in his argument that Platner is not a working class candidate.
I think it's extremely hard to argue that his article is a defensible reading of the data.

A 91-year-old woman’s rent went from $297 → $995 overnight—with just 4 days to pay or face penalties.
Like many mobile home residents, she owns her home but rents the land beneath it—leaving her trapped and vulnerable to hikes she can’t escape.

Earlier this month, Senator John Fetterman disclosed a purchase of Micron Technology stock $MU.
Micron was awarded $6.1 billion through the CHIPS Act, the largest grant made under the program.
Fetterman serves on the Senate Commerce Committee, which has oversight authority related to CHIPS Act funding.
The stock has increased more than 60% since his reported purchase.
If private landlords refuse to make empty apartments available for rent, the city should expropriate them w fair market compensation and convert them to social housing.
Democrats have a THREE-QUARTERS supermajority in the CA legislature and they just killed the single-payer universal health care bill, aka CalCare.
Democratic leadership, both statewide and national, are corporate controlled and have ZERO vision. We need new, bold leadership!
I can't tell you what an honor it is to have the endorsement of the one and only Betty Yee.
She is brilliant, she is consistent, and together we will make California the progressive leader we know it can be.

Hey all, it’s publishing day for my book “How to Sell a Genocide,” which is a data-driven account of mainstream media’s role in creating the conditions of mass death in Gaza. 100% of royalties go to @MECAForPeace. Thank you!

Becerra’s entire shtick of “I’m Latino so all the Latinos should vote for me” is indicative of his lazy approach to campaigning and executive governance. This sort of stale and cynical identity politics is exactly the reason the Democratic Party is in the trouble it’s in.
Gosh, it sure would be nice if @XavierBecerra did something with the #exxonknew file sitting on his desk for the last FOUR YEARS WHILE HIS STATE BURNS DOWN THANKS TO EXXON
