Biggest stat to remember ahead of @oregonfootball vs. UCLA:

The Ducks are 8-1 all time in games following a @taylorswift13 album release.

Bigger corporate profits account for *over half* of the higher prices people are paying.

Nancy Pelosi had 5 children in something like 7 years and that's all I can think about when I see her being calm under literal siege.

What if two years ago, I told you that by the end of Biden's first two years:

- 10 million new jobs
- 3.6% unemployment
- 86% drop in COVID death rate
- biggest ever infrastructure bill PASSED
- first gun safety bill in 30 yrs PASSED

(wait, just getting started...keep reading)

@drewdaraabrams Who else is running other than Bill Pai?

@MattHaneySF Who is paying for these ads?! And in what housing will these people live?

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Dem leaders must tell voters the plan:

What’s the *actual* need? Which specific seats are we focused on? WHAT votes do we need & WHERE (what states + races?)

And, what’s the return? What is Biden/Congress ACTUALLY willing+able to do at 52/60 seats?

Be honest. Details motivate

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Here’s how Dems can + must do more than wait for an election.

Let’s start w/ why:

- 7 of the 9 justices were appointed by a party that hasn’t won a popular vote more than once in 30 years

- 1 of those seats was stolen

- Several lied to Congress to secure their appointment…

Local journalist here, with a thread on why you should *absolutely not* do what this headline writer did, and treat the recall of Chesa Boudin as a referendum of national significance on criminal justice reform. 1/

[Meredith @meredithwill]

Very (VERY!) disappointing

How many times we gotta keep pointing it out before we abandon failed strategies - Police don’t prevent crime. They don’t interrupt crime. They respond to it. After the fact. And often times, they respond w more violence.

Y’all want to finally try something different or what?

THREAD: There’s a lot of talk right now about crime in San Francisco. Almost everything you’ll read in the mainstream press is wrong. I live in the Tenderloin and work in the courts every day. Here’s my take on what’s happening and why.
