Since people seem to have missed this one, unsealed in the Smith filing: -Trump used a burner phone, routed through a foreign country to contact Michigan house speaker. -He tried to pressure the speaker in this off book call. -Speaker McCarthy knew about the burner phone line. -The phone showed up as “Spam Risk Egypt” on caller ID. If the President thought his attempt to overturn the election and forge elector documents were legitimate “official acts” why was he using an insecure, foreign routed burner phone for these calls? How many other sensitive calls did the former President have on this unencrypted line with coconspirators, that could now be used as blackmail against him, by any foreign nation which may have tapped that line? (And before the reply bots get here, let me remind them: Trump’s own legal team did not dispute the authenticity of *anything* unsealed from the Smith filing)

stop junk fees, Restaurants included! If the only way to get people to dine at restaurants is to hide the price, how are we helping consumers? Full transparency requires level playing field: no junk fees for any restaurant. @MattHaneySF @Scott_Wiener @BillDoddCA @ilike_mike

There are some good progressive PACs, but there are some bad ones too. @TurnoutPAC (and its affiliate @StopGOP_ ) have opted for hardcore email/text practices. Support grassroots orgs that build infrastructure the right way, not by scamming old people.

These unlawful, targeted attacks on vulnerable children are discriminatory, destructive, and downright dangerous sacbee.com/opinion/article27…

It’s always “out of context.”

The Sac Sheriff's office violates the law, then says the orgs who pointed that out are liars that want lawlessness. The irony is rich...

Announcing while a large chunk of your state is in the middle of a natural disaster is in poor taste. She’d be a fine senator and all that, but seriously, read the room.

Hi folks, I’m afraid it’s time for me to say goodbye. Not just leaving Twitter, but the whole show. I’ve been battling cancer last 2 years, but now only have a few days left now. Thank you wonderful people, I leave this crazy world with much love in my heart ❤️

Anderson Lee Aldrich, the suspected shooter in Colorado Springs, is the grandson of ultra MAGA Asm @RandyVoepel. Voepel also previously called for violent revolution against the United States government. newsweek.com/who-randy-voepe…

BREAKING: California regulators just voted unanimously to ban the sale of new gas-powered cars by 2035. @n_llopez has the details: calmatters.org/environment/2…

Disappointing clever wording to sensationalize rich "moving out." Facts: 1) $2 MM earners in CA has doubled in past decade. 2) Vast majority that left SF stayed in CA. 3) Misleading to focus on General Fund. Income Tax <50% of all state revenues, so richest pay <25% of revenues.

Gov. Newsom vetoed our legislation to authorize SF, Oakland & LA to implement safe consumption sites. The veto is tragic & a huge lost opportunity. These sites are proven to save lives & connect people to treatment. Sad day for CA’s fight against overdose deaths. My statement:

.@Scott_Wiener: "Today’s veto is tragic. For eight years, a broad coalition has worked to pass this life-saving legislation. Each year this legislation is delayed, more people die of drug overdoses — two per day in San Francisco alone."

A blue-ribbon panel while fentanyl is killing hundreds of Californians. 🤨

Governor, Sign this bill. There have already been too many deaths this year. Safe consumption sites save lives. This is pro-life.

Lots of sex shaming of gay men around monkeypox. The same shaming we saw in the 1980s re HIV. Lecturing people not to have sex isn’t a public health strategy. It didn’t stop HIV — it made it worse — & it won’t stop monkeypox. What will work is vaccination, testing & education.

I’ve never been arrested before but I can hear the late congressman John Lewis imploring me to get in good trouble. We must be willing to speak out for patients who have the right to health care, and the fundamental right to bodily autonomy.

Meanwhile hospitals are denying care to pregnant patients with life threatening complications. chron.com/news/houston-texas…
