Was at the LA Young Democrats Holiday Party, celebrating all the good work my fellow CA Young Democrats do in Los Angeles, at all levels of advocacy, outreach, policy, grassroots work and more! These are more than just future leaders, they are current leaders! @grassrootsdemhq.bsky.social too!

Urbanists sometimes be like: maybe Mario Kart is some sort of secret indoctrination of children to drive them deeper into car culture.

My mother and her family came from Afghanistan decades ago. When Afghanistan fell to the Taliban, it was a huge emotional weight. Now, after years of war and sacrifice, we betrayed the allies who committed to make Afghanistan a better place.

When I was unemployed this was the notice I got in July for the increase in my healthcare premium at the end of the year. 8 Senate Democrats joined Republicans to reopen the government without extending (Obamacare or ACA) healthcare subsidies.

Got some Fridaaay coffee with @jonrawlingscd3.bsky.social today, who is running for LA City Council in Council District 3.

I appreciated the focus he had on people, the cost of living and local issues. YIMBYs take note!

AMERICA’s MAYOR. @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social wins NYC MAYOR! Live reaction from Los Angeles.

Hope is real if you are willing to fight for it. A victory for working class people. A victory for the south Asian community. A victory for housing. A victory for affordability. A victory for America.

Throwback to a lobbying trip to Sacramento for a key hearing. Every little bit of support makes a difference.

It’s time progressive learned to shoot and not forget some history of social justice groups, taking up arms to protect themselves. You don’t have to fight for reform defenseless or without knowledge of what you’re fighting for. Trust me I never thought I would say this and take a class.

shooting guns with guns 🔫💪🏽

Been taking a couple of classes with a group called LA Progressive Shooters. It’s exactly what it sounds like and 10 times better than any other left shooting group you’re find. Doesn’t change my view gun control, but it does inform it.

The NRA supported and helped draft the 1967 Mulford Act in California, which banned the public carrying of loaded firearms without a permit. The bill was introduced in response to the Black Panther Party's armed patrols 💫 The more you know! 💫 #transrights #guns #guncontrol #nra
