Think we can send in a strike team to remove him from power?

The world's a little crazy. We need a reminder now and then.

Funny from Iowahawk.

Best comment: she looks like one of the Manson girls.

I hate what they’ve done to the word equity.

A thread of her now-deleted tweets.

Reminds me of politicians who oppose strong borders yet for some odd reason have fences and doors and locks on their personal home.

Why do I smell patchouli while watching her video?

Im changing this thread title to focus on housing alone. It’s going to be that much of a disaster.

I like how she smiled when she said residents “can organize”. She just loves a protest or the idea of the masses gathering. Also, and I can’t blame her but she reminds me of someone who knows she’s being closely watched and is really nervous about each word.

[89th]

Also she said twice “across the state”. Isn’t she just in charge of the city housing?

She just doesn't seem tough enough for NYC.

Trump Wants to Bar Wall St. Investors From Buying Single-Family Homes

Trump’s not big on the Burkean conservative governance principle of subsidiarity is he?

Quite a micro manager if you ask me.
