Residents of Tempe came out in huge numbers to oppose a city ordinance that would put major limitations on those who offer food and provide services to unsheltered people. The council passed it anyway.
So the community organizes a campaign in attempt to repeal the ordinance. The response:

Someone hired Groundswell Contact to counter residents gathering signatures to repeal a city ordinance. It’s not clear who.
Hired mercenaries are blocking Tempe petitioners. Who’s paying them?

The left is completely silent on giving me a million dollars and calling me really cool and fun and smart and they should really stop that 😢
The left is completely silent on the subject of men getting laid - which, generally speaking, they are v.interested in doing and will continue to be interested in regardless of whether progressives want to talk about it. So the stage has been left entirely clear for the far-right.

If your law is good when there are good people in office, but dangerous when there are bad people in office, your law is bad.
Separately and notably, GLAAD — which dropped its opposition to KOSA last year after changes to the bill, easing its path to Democratic support — told me it now wants lawmakers to review the bill in light of "changes in the FTC and other government leadership." www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
