Melina AbdullahGUEST
The veto recommendation came out of public safety.
Melina AbdullahGUEST
Big thanks to Hugo Soto-Martinez, who led that charge, along with Curran Price and Nithya Raman, who voted to veto that pilot project.
Melina AbdullahGUEST
When it got to full city council vote, on Tuesday, we needed 10 votes to uphold the veto instead of just the majority.
Melina AbdullahGUEST
And so we wound up getting nine instead of 10.
Randy WangHOST
Yes.
Randy WangHOST
Or we thought it was Hugo Soto Martinez.
Randy WangHOST
You
speaker_15UNKNOWN
know, let's criminalize catalystic converters.
Randy WangHOST
They've all said yes to Bass, and they all got something for it.

Eunice's got needles and pipes to get passed out at MacArthur Park.
Randy WangHOST
You had Hugo Soto Martinez.
Randy WangHOST
What did he get for his endorsement of Karen Bass? He doesn't have to enforce homeless encampment ordinances anymore in his district.
John PhillipsHOST
BAS has been endorsed by every single non-NIFIA DSA member on the City Council.
John PhillipsHOST
Hugo Soto-Martinez, Isabel Urado, and Eunice Hernandez.
John PhillipsHOST
All of them support BAS.
John PhillipsHOST
Which means, anytime BAS wants any of her programs approved by the City Council... she's going to have to go to that DSA block and ask for their votes to get it done.
Chris GraceHOST
toxic recently endorsed the Republican candidate for New York state governor.
Chris GraceHOST
And not that she's a standup, but if she were a standup, I would love to hear somebody examine how you end up in that situation and what it means to you in the same way that I would love to hear some DSA leftist comedians talk about how the Uh, the like Los Angeles, do you say like some of the city council members here, including my representative, Hugo Soto, do I even know his name? Hugo, is it Hugo Soto Martinez? Um, tippy tap, tippy tap, tippy tap.

nailed it.
Chris GraceHOST
Hugo Soto Martinez.

You know how sometimes, um, I'll just reveal this.
Chris GraceHOST
You can cancel me if you want.

Chris MerrillHOST
It's the DSA.
Chris MerrillHOST
It's Hugo Soto-Martinez.
Chris MerrillHOST
It's Nithya Raman-Karim.
Chris MerrillHOST
And
Michael MonksHOST
They
Chris MerrillHOST
are in a weird spot because while I'm sure their most active membership are behind Nithya Raman, Hugo Soto-Martinez, the DSA councilman, whose values line up perfectly with Nithya Raman, has endorsed Karen Bass, and he came out of that union.
Chris MerrillHOST
Those are his people.
Chris MerrillHOST
Are there conversations going on behind closed doors that we don't know about?
Suzy ExpositoHOST
Mm.
Gustavo ArellanoGUEST
And the other two are Democratic socialists, Hugo Soto-Martínez and Unices- Eunisses Hernandez.
Suzy ExpositoHOST
Mm-hmm.
Gustavo ArellanoGUEST
And they ran with no, at least in their first races, they ran against old school.
