Ever since, he has been on a legislative frenzy to pass anything that will advance his neo-Marxist agenda.
From memory, he is trying to outlaw gasoline engines by 2035.
He has also convinced our Hard Left state Supreme Court that a special tax on entrepreneurs is not an income tax (we have no state income tax).
And, he is trying to enshrine unrestricted legal abortion into our state Constitution.
The really scary part is he is doing all of this liberal s&*% to better his odds of becoming president.
Racist redlining sounds like something the Rats would do. Gotta keep those plantations in check.
Draw the line between qualifying and not.
Mo repo-rations for the xxxxx race that has been getting trillions in welfare transfer payments from other people’s money and other people’s taxes. We owe them jack shyte! They xxxx owe us.

Redlining was already illegal.
you can’t give no interest loans based on race, that is flat out discrimination and any court would throw it out.
He also banned most semi automatic firearms and magazines with a capacity of 6 or more rounds.
The more blacks you have in a community, the more reparations you have to pay. This is a bad way to improve race relations.
