My favorite part about all these publications writing about a "high-speed rail line" that will "go from LA to NYC in 72 hours" and be "operating in time for the World Cup" is that literally none of them stopped to look up the fact that Amtrak does this trip in less time right now

The landlord lobby is putting intense pressure on City Council (especially CMs Bass, Jones, and Squilla) because they donβt want to be held accountable for making essential repairs and following the law.

Bad unions exist. Itβs what they talk about in the media when they complain about unions. You are responsible for holding your union accountable. Demand justice. Demand accountability.
