Never seen a vibe like this in #SanJose. #WorldCup HQ for Bay Area. #SanPedroSquare. Mexico wins 1st knockout round match in 40 years.

Never worked harder on an article in my life, including rigorous vetting by two top media attorneys and an ace fact-checker. Here’s the real story about the real Phil:

This is a major shift/pivot for #GavinNewsom. This might be his calling card for 2028 Presidential Election. Waiting now for details. @GavinNewsom will surely make it different than @RoKhanna @BernieSanders. #billionairestax

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

It's time for a national billionaires tax and a new social contract.

10% of Americans own two-thirds of the wealth. Wages have stagnated. The cost of living has skyrocketed. 

The system is fundamentally broken.

The federal tax code, a corporate code, and an inheritance code were written for a different set of Americans. 

It’s time for an economic reset.

Dusty Baker on Tony Vitello: “As a manager, you need to try to figure some of this out yourself.” Always fascinating to spend time w/ legendary @SFGiants manager. New memoir “Crossroads.” “

Bravo, Elim! @itselimchan named Music Director of @SFSymphony. 39 year-old Hong Kong born conductor becomes among very few woman and Asian Americans to lead a major symphony. Came to #USA to become a doctor…and then fell in love w/ music @UMich. @nbcbayarea

Steve Kerr coming back? This stood out to me 2 years ago when I interviewed him: “It will be a very amicable parting of the ways.” #Warriors insider @MontePooleNBCS reports #Kerr unlikely to come back to @warriors.

[Raj Mathai @rajmathai]

“It will be a very amicable parting of the ways.” #SteveKerr talks about his future w/ @warriors. Sit down intvw @ChaseCenter. Full segment at end of thread. @nbcbayarea 1/4

“I believed he drugged my drink.” Another woman accuses @ericswalwell of rape. Lonna Drewes was a model and business owner in Beverly Hills in 2018. #Swalwell “offered me connections to further my software company.” @nbcbayarea @LisaBloom

[Raj Mathai @rajmathai]

Not getting any better for @RepSwalwell. #FBI now weighing in. @nbcbayarea

[FBI Director Kash Patel @FBIDirectorKash]

.@EricSwalwell has maintained that none of the allegations against him are true, and now that he’s resigned, we would welcome him to sit down with the FBI and share any information he has.

We also encourage and welcome any person with relevant information to any of these matters to speak with us. Door is open to all. @FBI

#BREAKING: Swalwell bows out of Governor’s race. Will he now be forced out of #Congress? He has approx 9 months remaining on his term. He was first elected in 2012. His District represents parts of Hayward, Pleasanton, Fremont and Livermore. @nbcbayarea

[Eric Swalwell @ericswalwell]

I am suspending my campaign for Governor.

To my family, staff, friends, and supporters, I am deeply sorry for mistakes in judgment I’ve made in my past.

I will fight the serious, false allegations that have been made — but that’s my fight, not a campaign’s.

@RobMayeda @NWSBayArea Drive safely. I saw a 6-car and 3-car crash within minutes of each other on 280 (near San Mateo). @CHP_HQ

Swalwell responds after reports of sexual assault. @nbcbayarea #Swalwell

[Rep. Eric Swalwell @RepSwalwell]

Hear it directly from me. These allegations are flat false. And I will fight them.

[Raj Mathai @rajmathai]

Walls are caving in for @RepSwalwell (democratic front runner for California Governor’s race). Multiple women (per @sfchronicle @CNN) accuse Bay Area Congressman of sexual assault/misconduct). Multiple calls (from @MattMahanSJ @TomSteyer @katieporterca) to drop out. @nbcbayarea
