Small business is the backbone of our city’s economy. That’s why I take it seriously when people ask us for help with the permits they need to launch. No other law firm knows small business like Anastasio Law. https://t.co/ILSDLP37Yx

@FrankLuntz Because more are using THC.

Yes!

The point of an abatement is not to hand out a stack of cash, it is about making the math work. Projects that can’t otherwise secure funding become feasible. Plots that either produce no revenue or in some cases act as a liability, costing the city maintenance, become productive.

❤️ This is about love. Not just about land use. Special exceptions for Pops Bun Shop & Cecily Tyson Musical Theatre, compliance for Ralph’s, a conveyance for Cucina Maria; a zoning variance for Kampar. Because when it comes to love, there’s nothing I won’t do.❤️ #phillyzoning

@nobodyknows2322 Come to Philly. Change your mind.

@DPearsonPHL When you have a JV team as the city’s legislative body (most…but not all members), you gotta lower your expectations.

Love many.
Trust few.
Always paddle your own canoe.

Just to put this on the record: I never had trump derangement syndrome since 2016. That’s because I never liked the guy way back to 1986. So no, I’m not buying what he’s selling. I find him personally objectionable. 40 years in the making. Sorry. That’s the way it is.

@NICKIMINAJ That’s a shame

Rev Jesse Jackson was an important voice for equality and a powerful agent for change during a critical time in our history. May he rest in peace and may his memory be a blessing to his family and to his countrymen.

The recent deaths of Brad Arnold & James Van Der Beek remind us that not everyone gets a third act. Those stories seem so incomplete, which is why we find them so sad.

LESSON: make every part of the time we have worth while. None of us are guaranteed that third act.

@DPearsonPHL If the attorneys can show the residential component is part of the religious based mission of the overall project, the courts will protect it from being stripped by the NIMBYs. I did this for the long-denied Bawa Muhaiyaddeen and we created new zoning precedence. #anastasiolaw

It’s no big deal if you watch a superbowl half time show and don’t understand the lyrics. Ya go to the opera and the entire performance is in either Italian or German, right? Oh wait…the yahoos complaining about Bad Bunny wouldn’t know where to find an opera. 😆

@TedNugent You’re an idiot

[Vern Anastasio @vernanastasio]

@atensnut But as a human being, DJT is inherently objectionable
