That's closer to it. The local permitting jurisdictions get nothing out of approving or denying applications. They get held up for two reasons: the proposal is incomplete/unapprovable by law; and political intervention from an outside entity. Maybe the mayor or a commissioner, sometimes a director of an agency or organization. That's where any bribery or other such shenanigans would take place. Not the permitting office.

That looks more like Jeff Coltin's contribution to what Mandani said. Mamdani did the very politician thing and said 'there are many ways'. Jeff is adding in the discouragement and the 'but' to Mamdani's quote.
That might have something to do with it.
It's not a change of heart on white christian nationalist policymaking, so her rhetoric means fuck all.
Disenfranchised ruling class commits to counter-revolution. Repeat.
But for that specifically, it is conveniently called the Thermidorian Reaction, using this calendar's terminology.
She was booked into the Polk County Jail in Des Moines, Iowa, where she currently lives, in September for allegedly driving with a suspended license
September through November this person was held in jail before ICE showed up.
Cancels out the threat. Math.
So you know how there's the story of the underage girl prostituting herself to a congressperson for money for braces?
Exploitation. That's how people are intended, nay, expected, to 'swing it.'
It'll be taken care of by the new Microsoft CEO: Miguel Sanchez.
Some take away from this that the grocer, the janitor, the tailor, the shoemaker, and the baker are to be forgiven as it would be inhumane to punish everyday people.
And then turn around and claim the Nuremburg Trials were inhumane because Streicher didn't personally shoot anyone.
The banality of evil became so much more of a defense than the indictment it should have been and should still be.
It kinda looks like Hot Fuzz? It's been a while to remember.

I feel this. I used to work in a 1970s era courthouse building. Dimly lit and filled with archive boxes. Winding deadend corridors. My cubicle was undeniably my private workspace. Only office environment I kinda miss.
The quad-plex half-cubicle shared workspace that office moved to was garbage. A leading factor in my eventual departure actually. Work environment means a lot. Nothing beats remote work though.
