Get ready for a whole lot of nothing to be done on housing and homelessness the next 4-8 years. This election was existential for YIMBY housing policy, and we’re getting a dude to the right of Newsom. Congrats on your Latino governor, though!

Steyer wouldn't just gotten 2nd if Porter dropped out, he likely would've gotten 1st.

Fuck Katie Porter

Katie Porter screwed over California and now we’re going to have Mr. Chevron McDonalds running it. Great work Katie.

He would rather boost MAGA turnout in November and lose the House to the GOP than have two Democrats on the ballot. I can't imagine why.

[Kate Willett @katewillett]

There will be a movement to tackle housing costs and it will absolutely not advocate primarily for market building.

Young people want $1500, $2k rents, even $1k and all YIMBY’s can promise is that $3100 might be only $3400 in a few years.

I'm an antiwar socialist running for Congress.

My main opponent, 29-year incumbent Democrat Adam Smith, just voted NO on a resolution that would have forced U.S. troops out of Lebanon in seven days.

Smith was one of 117 Democrats who voted NO.

Adam Smith needs to be thrown out of office. Electing another Democrat is a failed strategy for the antiwar movement. Join my independent revolutionary socialist campaign.

Greta Thunberg explains how speaking up for Palestine is different from speaking up for climate issues.

At a conference in Brussels, she said that supporting Palestine is the minimum that people should do for human rights.

She also said that, unlike climate activism and many other social causes, speaking out for Palestine can often lead to criticism, backlash, or being cancelled.

@rcmoya84 I think he's well to the right of Newsom.

[René 🟥🚩🇵🇸 @rcmoya84]

The fear that Becerra might be another Newsom (and they mean this pejoratively) are being far too optimistic, when I fear the man might end up being this era's Gray Davis

@loomdoop I was at a tour of Tesla a while back and I asked them what's the benefit of having doors open like that. He acknowledged that there's no advantage to it other than looking cool.

@NVindependent1 We’re not cheering on the person who voted against raising the pride flag in the Bay Area in 2019 are we

[It's politics @uspolitics1111]

The virtue signaling of some "leftists" arguing about morality in politics is abhorrent.

You have a senator that voted for the Iraq war and endless horrific nazi-esque policies of the trump regime and another one that had/has flawed morality, bad personal choices but fucking based politics and advocating for all the right policies.

Choose the right politics every damn time

More CA results to come, but *every* Working Families Party House candidate currently in a top two position:

- Mai Vang (CA-7)
- Connie Chan (CA-11)
- Aisha Wahab (CA-14)
- Randy Villegas (CA-22)
- Angela Gonzalez-Torres (CA-34)

@JoeyMauro1 @Penguin57a It’s very close right now.

Shout out to Katie Porter for engaging in the proud progressive tradition of staying in the race long past when she could actually win, splitting the vote, and handing the election to a centrist Democrat that takes money from oil companies

As a born and raised San Franciscan…… what the FUCK are all of you thinking???? Xavier Becerra?? Scott Weiner???????

[Vinnie Bacon - @vbacon.bsky.social @vinniebacon]

@Trisha_Tahmasbi If the DOJ has any dirt on Becerra, and they likely do, it will be leaked in hopes of getting Hilton elected.
