@AdamSchefter @DanielOyefusi Couldn’t have happened to a nicer woman abuser? And the boos are the disrespectful thing?

[Jason Overman @bluegoldjason]

@OCGOP @JeremyBWhite @susancrabtree @OCGOP Will you also criticize Donald Trump’s “comma director” for being consistently more combative?

[Jason Overman @bluegoldjason]

@SportsCenter @AdamSchefter Very disrespectful by Coach Johnson

@eastbaycitizen Someone’s needed to do this for a long time.

@richlyons @UCBerkeley @Cal Proud alum here, Class of ‘08. Agreed. Football games and logo sightings give me opportunities to teach my 3.5yo to say “Go Bears” and “I’m going to go to Berkeley” and “Cal Berkeley” interchangeably! 🐻

@DarwinBondGraha If they’re not going to be there after they get torched, perhaps they shouldn’t be there so they won’t GET torched. (Along with the homes of many people nearby…)

@AdamSchefter @AdamSchefter Carted or walked?!

@cw4emeryville @OaklandFireCA Thank you - it was literally right next to us

[Roselyn Romero @roselyn_romero]

In a 7-1 vote, the Oakland City Council approved the renewal of OPD’s contract with gunshot detection technology system ShotSpotter through September 2025.

I was at City Hall until 10 last night to report on the vote. My latest story for @Oaklandside: https://t.co/a29gt7LcHS

@DarwinBondGraha That’s crazy. Maybe if their computers weren’t from 1988, and they could handle a PDF upload that would be considered normally sized for this decade…

[Jason Overman @bluegoldjason]

@ajcfootball @AdamSchefter Repairing what? Fake drama = leverage for contract negotiations. Simple as that.

[Jason Overman @bluegoldjason]

@CSElmendorf Thank you, Chris - we should do a Ted talk on CEQA abuse + local politics… I love how you dissect this stuff.

[Jason Overman @bluegoldjason]

@cmaiduc @WSJ Terrible. I’m so sorry to hear!

[Jason Overman @bluegoldjason]

@BerkeleyScanner @IDoTheThinking @bswp @IgorTregub Yep - that’s what I’m dying to find out, if it happens. And I think it could very easily happen.

[Jason Overman @bluegoldjason]

@BerkeleyScanner But what’s fascinating about this is that @ruben4berkeley is only eliminated in Round 2 because he’s behind by THREE VOTES. Obviously more votes to count in coming days but this is wild.

[Jason Overman @bluegoldjason]

@justinberton He’s a real one.

[Jason Overman @bluegoldjason]

@DarwinBondGraha Thanks for clarifying. I always think it’s weird that county ROVs only show their own results but for multi county races you have to go to SOS.
