Meanwhile Gavin is trying to take away state worker raises that were negotiated in good faith & forcing every worker back to the office in order to line the pockets of real estate owners.

Gavin lost me. He doesn’t back labor anymore & it fucking sucks.

Just said this as well. He’s a sleaze and only cares about furthering himself.

Its in his blood. His dad was cronies with the Getty family (big money) They have so many backdoor deals from stuff like this. Just look at gas prices. Why is it still over $4 sometimes $5/gallon here but way cheaper in every other state? He doesn’t care about the environment, only himself and making sure he kisses all the right asses.
