People have been fighting apartments next to the 16th/Mission BART since at least 2017. I used to think that California leftists were poverty and segregation's unpaid interns, but now I think they love ruining people's lives even more than Republicans.

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

Alex Padilla grew up in the Valley as the child of immigrants. He has a mechanical engineering degree from MIT. He got into politics only after California passed prop 187, a horribly racist bill banning undocumented immigrants from attending public schools. (It was ruled unconstitutional)
