BREAKING: The US has bombed Tehran’s main refinery and burning oil is now flooding down the streets into the city’s sewers.

This is a vision from hell, unleashed by the US tonight.

As Janisse QuiΓ±ones steps away from the LADWP, there is ongoing pressure within the department to privatize. As mayor, I will appoint a leader who will keep our water and power systems a robust and effective public utility.

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads:

The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.

And our governments are very much the same...

- Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Meanwhile, Americans continue to struggle to make ends meet while our tax dollars support the destruction of homes and the displacement of people on the other side of the world.

Enough is enough. NO war on Iran!

The Trump regime claims that if we get immigrants out of subsidized housing, those units will go to help solve our housing crisis. This isn’t true, but the words are in the right order to make people who should know better take them at face value.

We need more housing across Los Angeles. As mayor, I will faithfully implement SB79’s community protections while ensuring we are increasing our housing supply.

Every Angeleno deserves a safe and affordable home, and SB79 is one of the many pathways that will make this a reality.

It was so inspiring to be together with fellow Angelenos who are fighting for the livelihood and dignity of working families. We have enough wealth in our state for everyone to thrive. It’s time we share that wealth.

I'm fully endorsing SEIU-UHW's Billionaire Tax for California. Tax the Rich!

Listened in on a few of the earlier meetings & whole process is a bit overwhelming

Surprised we’re not seeing more advocacy around charter reform but thanks @controller.lacity.gov & @raeforla.com for the few pieces of advocacy I’ve seen

If you’re in LA, we should all really be paying attention

The devastating floods citywide this week highlight the need for local government to focus on what matters. When street infrastructure upgrades are blocked and killed by a mayor and city council that answer to a NIMBY real estate lobby and not people, we all pay the price.

LA28's big gamble Casey Wasserman's own company forced him out β€” and now LA28 really expects the city to embrace him?

I wrote about why LA28's vote to keep Casey Wasserman in power should outrage LA taxpayers who are on the hook for the games β€” and how it signifies yet another way that this organization is out of sync with the city it claims to represent
