Holy cow, San Francisco techno fascists put out an attack ad on me just because DoorDash will now have to *ask the City for permission* to fly drones at their property in *my district* after my legislation passed *unanimously*!

Also looks like Elon Musk chimed in…

[DSA @DemSocialists]

Non-exhaustive, but a good list to start.

[Sana Saeed @SanaSaeed]

looooooool someone saw some numbers

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Surprise! The Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post is against my 5% billionaire wealth tax. I wonder why?

If enacted, Bezos would owe $12 billion in taxes, and an average family of 4 would receive a $12,000 direct payment.

Poor Jeff would be left with just $224 billion to survive.

[Teamsters California @TeamstersCA]

First responders are in our communities to save lives and protect people. Firefighters and police officers are sounding the alarm everywhere, it is not their job to be Waymo's personal AAA.

[Jackie Fielder @JackieFielder_]

I appreciate DSA members who worked to shut down the hateful detractor, but she continued.

I look forward to working with DSA members to strengthen protocols on shutting detractors down swiftly and safely for everyone involved.

And that singular person was a bystander on the street who came to spew horrible antisemitic chants.

Antisemitism has no place in San Francisco, period. Full stop.

[Gabriel Lorenzo Greschler @ggreschler]

There’s some disagreement online over whether it was the group of protestors that was chanting “tax the Jews” or a singular person. The audio appears to show it was a singular person.

I’ve spoken with multiple people present at the protest. Here are the facts: a mentally unstable woman—known to construction workers in the area—chanted anti semitic remarks while DSA members chanted “Tax the Rich.”

Members tried to get her to stop, and chant over her. She left.

[Jackie Fielder @JackieFielder_]

Both will be talking tomorrow and I hope to be a part of it to understand why this policy protest turned into a flurry of accusations.

[DSA San Francisco @DSA_SF]

DSA SF members at the protest were similarly disgusted and horrified by this woman's rhetoric, and want to make clear her words came from her alone. While we disagree on policy, we join the Mayor in condemning antisemitism.

Our statement on Instagram: https://t.co/yO8wCB9IaD

[Jackie Fielder @JackieFielder_]

The press conf took place inside a cordoned off fence, so participants, including @TradesSf couldn’t distinguish protestors from the one woman.

SF Building Trades put out a statement conflating the woman with DSA. DSA has even reached out to Building Trades.

[Jackie Fielder @JackieFielder_]

If the previous Mayor and this Mayor truly wanted affordable housing for working people, they would just FUND affordable housing (built by union labor!) *with* the real estate transfer tax as voters intended. Not repeal it.

This is a break for developers, not working people.

[Jackie Fielder @JackieFielder_]

Mayor Lurie wants to undo the will of San Francisco voters and pass this massive developer tax break, under the guise of “unlocking” thousands of housing units.

When actually, this tax has kept 20,000 San Franciscans housed and was meant *to fund affordable housing.*

[San Francisco Chronicle @sfchronicle]

Mayor Daniel Lurie and Supervisor Bilal Mahmood on Wednesday will introduce legislation that would cut the city’s transfer tax in half on large real estate transactions. https://t.co/Zyv2m5pMpV

[Jackie Fielder @JackieFielder_]

Rents and evictions are skyrocketing, and the only housing getting built is actually affordable housing built by not-for profit developers or developers who are getting into the affordable housing game.

[Kat Scott 🐀 @kscottz]

Either someone on the editorial staff of the NYT is on vacation or an editor knows they're getting axed in the next round of layoffs.

Anyway, remember this when the tech bros say SF needs more "moderate" candidates.

[POLITICO @politico]

EXCLUSIVE: Tom Steyer is telling union leaders in California that he’d back a special election to raise corporate taxes in his first year as governor.

Congratulations to striking San Francisco educators for winning pay increases and FULL healthcare coverage for your families!

I am ready to work with the union and the Board of Education to ensure this agreement can be honored for years to come.

When we fight, WE WIN!

eternal reminder that SF politics Twitter is not real life:

[Jackie Fielder @JackieFielder_]

Hey @AOC San Francisco teachers are striking because they can’t afford to live on low income wages & benefits.

While you’re in Munich please ask our governor @GavinNewsom what he’s doing to help resolve this and get our students and educators what they deserve.

[Scott Wong @scottwongDC]

NEW: @AOC to offer a 'working class' perspective on U.S. foreign policy at Munich security summit

As speculation grows about her ambitions, Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez will speak on a bigger stage about the rise of populism and bring her vision for U.S. foreign policy.

“It’s very important that they see the full spectrum of representation, leadership and thought of the United States,” AOC told @NBCNews ahead of her appearance.
