Last night I got a call from my City Council rep, Antonio Reynoso about his campaign for Brooklyn Borough President. It was a fundraising call, but we talked for 20 minutes about what issues were important to me and how he's addressing those concerns in his platform. Apparently he has endorsements from: Working Family Party, Jumaane Williams, and Cynthia Nixon, which signal his lane.

I knew he recognizes the need to cut down on car traffic and infrastructure, which makes sense in his district. One thing that really impressed me is that he recognizes there's not a single solution for every neighborhood, and that folks in Canarsie and East New York need transportation solutions that aren't bike lanes.

Anyway this is a rambling post, but I've never had the opportunity to talk with a politician. I've especially never talked with a politician who has a platform in line with my own views who was interested in hearing my ideas for things. Very cool experience and I'll throw the max matching donation his way.

This is cool, I remember being stunned to be called by various insurgent candidates themselves I always went "wait, it's like ACTUALLY you?"

remember when Giuliani did "catch and release" on the homeless, kidnapping them from Manhattan and dumped them in other boroughs

that was pretty bad

I think it was a late 90's move but it might have been post-9/11

I mean, it sounds like she completed a pretrial diversion program for a first offense misdemeanor? Which is, like, exactly what we want happening for more people?

Her attonrney attempting to claim this represents exoneration and she is gonna sue all the people that badmouthed her though... HOO LAWD.

wasn't there a big dustup just a couple years ago because DeBlasio was sending homeless families to Broome County with small rent stipends?

Given the generally non-coercive nature of these programs, a lot (but not all; there are other reasonable objections) of the dust up is in the form of NIMBY nonsense from the places where people choose to go with those stipends.

yeah thats pretty good


there's a really, really big political divide between people who are 'informed' and people who are 'not,' which really means between people who read news as a hobby like C SPAM posters and Nate Silver, and people who have other hobbies and hear about these sorts of things weeks or years after the fact, if ever (and usually then only from the people who can afford to pay for gilded loudspeakers)

That's a good point. Just adjust part of thr culture war and this mass murder got to be treated like a hero. They gave this guy a loving Emmy for a book about nesting COVID in the middle of it spreading uncontrolled in the State at the time, that still pisses me off
