I write about SF Bay Area politics.
Formerly @sfstandard , @BayCity_Beacon
RTs, likes ≠ endorsements; all views my own.
- An unknown party is posting flyers with names of alleged fentanyl dealers and Superior Court judges they allege ordered their release in the Mission District.
- Catherine Stefani is calling for an audit of HealthRight360, SF's biggest drug rehab NGO. It appears they weren't able to keep up with their detox program contract, which they took over from another troubled NGO
- 'The city distributes about $1.5 billion to over 600 nonprofit organizations annually, according to the Controller’s Office. But the city’s oversight of that spending has fallen under scrutiny amid numerous scandals' From @davidfortheppl sfstandard.com/politics/city-…
- Hello - if you have been blocked on social media by SF elected officials, plz send a screenshot. Thanks!
- New article: Suddenly, Incumbency Seems Vulnerable sfstandard.com/politics/super…
- Oh Dear@JuliePitta spotted in the Richmond District with a torn up @MarjanPhilhour campaign sign in her hand.
- Personal update time: I'm moving on from @sfstandard to take an extended break and explore some new ideas. Being a plank holder for a new online publication was a great experience for which I'm thankful. For now, I'm watching from the dugout until the fur _really_ starts to fly.
- Kudos to @Josh_Koehn and The Standard for their longtime attention to Jon Jacobo and his conduct—conduct that can no longer be ignored with the new revelations. There's now a lot of public soul-searching over what was once a very notorious open secret. Well... 🧵
- He’s the first candidate to unseat an elected incumbent supervisor. He will be the first openly gay supervisor representing San Francisco’s westside. He’s also the first supervisor elected in District 4 who is not Chinese American. sfstandard.com/politics/engar…
- The unprecedented tensions around San Francisco’s redistricting arise mainly from concern for incumbent supervisors. So much for a non-political process sfstandard.com/politics/miser…
- The SF Board of Supervisors passed the $25M police overtime supplemental by a 9-2 vote after over an hour of arguments. Preston, Walton dissented.
- "The reality is that San Francisco’s politics — progressive and moderate alike — are exceptionally toxic. The way our political system functions, and the cronyism embedded within it, allows abusive people to fail up without consequence."
