If people want this to happen (which they should, if only to set an example) they need to act fast, no?–while 1) there’s substantial left/lib support 2) people are angry with few outlets for their energy 3) memories are fresh. There should be demos NOW. Is LA just unorganizable? https://t.co/NirPATrVcd

Concise summary. Puts adequate emphasis on the Build Back Better madness. Doesn’t address issue of who (aside from Biden) made these bad decisions. Klain remains default suspect. https://t.co/4raJRH9Avo

Some background: https://t.co/BEiW0kKYZw I think the black fears are entirely rational. Nobody likes their community destroyed by outsiders. But that point has wider application than maybe Newsom (or Meacham!) would want to admit https://t.co/SYLWiNgwGA

“Altadena is a very different community than the Palisades.” Newsom steps gingerly around the point: Black homeowners in Altadena don’t want to be displaced (replaced?) in the rebuilding. (It must be “culturally competent” he says.) https://t.co/cnoe0RbSNj

Upshot is it’s not enough, on immigration (and I think elsewhere) for Dems to tell the ‘extreme activist’ groups no. They need to come to terms with something fundamental, not fringe: Are they willing to have a future border that is actually, effectively controlled to limit… https://t.co/ep2jxYrymV https://t.co/wmPAxd55dj

Problem is the “popular message” was a fraud. The requirements Obama cites were fake in the bills actually introduced (e.g. you only had to SIGN UP for English class, not learn English, and you wouldn’t go to back of the key line) https://t.co/8BBO4SscIu Almost all the future… https://t.co/fUVBnFQnPA https://t.co/Phn4BFkRx2
