the dumbest form of politics is yelling at voters after you lose. if you lose it is *always* your fault. every confounding factor in the universe is your job to overcome. if you take a position that is unpopular and don't adjust to learning that, you are bad at running for office.

IF Gavin Newsom is on a ballot

THEN me and many others will refuse to vote for him

THEREFORE instead of bitching at me and others like me

YOU should take the *years* you have and make sure that doesn't happen if you actually fucking care

BECAUSE my position is immutable

Google Street View screenshot. A single-track railway runs straight through a landscape of green, treeless rolling hills. Wooden poles hold up an overhead wire along the railway, and a smaller pole displays a white sign simply reading "Birds Landing". Windmills dot the background.

A collection of candles, flowers, and painted stones are set on a tree grate. The stones say things like "Roll on like a river" and "Love" and "Hope"

A GE Dash 9 High Adhesion truck that has been cut down to 2 axles from 3.  The join needs a lot of cleaning up and there are no snubbers or brake cylinders installed yet.

Maybe he's just really eager to no longer have Mullin as a coworker. I suspect I would be.

Mullin is up for reelection this year, so if he resigns they have less than a month for any replacement candidates to file.

Sure, ICE having a larger budget than many militaries sounds bad, but you have to remember that a lot of that money is being siphoned off by corrupt cronies long before it can be used for violent repression in American cities.
