"We need to reform zoning codes in order to increase housing supply" and "we don't want to step into the business of local government" and "dense cities are dangerous hellholes that we must pacify militarily" are three propositions that don't hang together at all

An Art Installation at Burning Man:
Drummers met the marchers today in Dolores Park San Francisco. this was the front of the march that was several blocks long.
Our NRA World: 16yo Georgia teen returning home at 3:30 in the morning is shot and killed after being mistaken as an intruder by an occupant of the house. It happens.
To fill the street and march to the park
Labor protest in San Francisco
The moment the protest decided which way to march, stopping the buses!
Frankly I'm surprised they are having them here at all and have not just moved all the US games to Mexico.
And then we have a nutcase with brain worms who wants to force all of us to wear a health monitor that enables a for-profit company to track our vitals etc 24/7. Oh hell no.
This article does not list other requirements to take advantage of this, I seem to remember some restrictions.
I do not share it. Period.
Printed some out for San Francisco and will bring to today's protest to hand out.
It seems the more we come out and demand this guy is removed the more the administration digs in supporting him. What will it take?
This guy likely voted against red flag laws. These Republicans are such lying hypocrites and obviously care more about keeping gun $$ coming than the lives of our kids.
USA! USA! Where men shooting an 11 year old kid in the back for playing ding dong ditch is just another day.
There is no way in hell I am going to open an account on that racist's app. I trust you here.
This makes no sense. If the man has not had a stroke, he is still nowhere near mentally well enough to run the USA.
Bad news for cities. 🚨 Cars are parked 95% of the time, eating up valuable street space. Now, new research from Lisbon shows parked cars are also intensifying urban heat: by as much as +3.8°C. 🌡️ 🧵
So, this was the first group of the children they want to deport.
I will admit I hope it is painful and keeps him on the toilet most of the day.
I love the group adding benches at bus stops where the city failed to do so. I think I want to volunteer and help assemble and install more! SFBA Bench Collective When cities fail to provide benches we build and install our own. sfbabc.org
I want that one to spend some time in jail for contempt for his many previous actions.
Courts still matter.
Considering what these Republicans have done to the country today, that would be preferable.
Racists are the dumbest scumbags around.
They dream of what they think the 1950's were like. Before women could even have a checking account on their own, always wore pretty dresses and make-up and had dinner on the table when the husband came home.
He is a racist scumbag and his X racist trolls should not be shared IMO, that is what he wants.
I will never go someplace without downloading maps on my phone prior. Cell coverage is not reliable in many cases!
As it is women are losing babies today due to not having closer health care.
The racism is strong and spreading. With the climate changing the way it is, immigration is just starting, wait till they see the millions of refugees fleeing for safer ground.
If I ran into Trevor he would hear a few words I imagine he does not like hearing a woman tell him.
AYFKM?
I hope the neighborhood gets the owner to change his mind and the offended people get a life.
It is all due to selfishness, racism and GREED of Republicans.
The number of children expected to die from policies that have already been enacted is unimaginable in isolation, even before factoring in the other concurrent and compounding threats from this new epidemiological landscape.
I fear this is going to get worse and worse.
I hope people re-chalk the rainbow every day, causing them to pay for a cop to guard a street 24/7. And let them arrest one after another for daring to stand up to filthy bigoted Republicans.
Republicans tried to charge him with a felony for putting chalk on his shoes and making rainbows on the crosswalk. I hope this rainbow is chalked in every single day. Let these bigots pay for a cop 24/7 to guard the street and arrest one after another after another who re-rainbows the street.
Modi is out for himself, just like Trump.
If this helps keep restaurants from making the place so loud and uncomfortable we leave quickly I'm all for it.
We did this to ourselves www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/w...
Happy Labor Day! None of us can do everything, but we all can do something. Find an event near you and join us this Labor Day as we fight for what #workersdeserve. Together, we can reclaim the promise of America and build a better future for working people. www.mobilize.us/aft/?date=20...
Those two jackasses need to be locked up in rubber rooms and never seen again.
What an asshole.
whoa.
But that bitch Kristi Noem and the rest in this administration says Haiti is fine and we must return all those granted approval to live here under TPS. I suggest we send her there alone, unarmed, to walk around and try to find an apartment, job and shop for groceries and see how safe it is there.
Sunrise over San Francisco bay thanks to webcam! Today, protest!
I hate what Republicans have done to our country. Damn them all.
This is the provision Ensign cited as the basis for the government's authority to summarily remove unaccompanied migrant children. I’d love to hear from immigration lawyers, but having briefly looked at it… it’s so frivolous it’d be laughable if it weren’t so cruel. (Am I wrong??)
Make your voice heard www.regulations.gov/docket/FS-20...
Done
I don’t know but lawyers seem to
NEW: NEW: The Trump administration is barring Palestinian passport holders from getting visitors' visas for now. They can't enter the US for medical treatment, family visits and education. State Dept. ordered it in a global cable on Aug. 18. Our story: www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/w...
Never heard of her
Doesn’t look like it
Yeah for beach days. I truly love San Francisco
Did the DV suspect ram his car?
This is what I needed today. Pacific Ocean And I never had to leave the San Francisco . #wavetherapy
What a horrible man
Trump and the Republicans are trying to get rid of a bunch of teenagers seeking asylum and to live with other family here!
lies
They cut all the things this asshole is saying we need.
I’m thinks the same. They must be so scared.
I do believe that
They are holding scared kids on planes for hours.
When Sooknanan wraps up, counsel for plaintiffs tell her that their understanding is that the planes with the children have been grounded but that the children have not been deplaned. Sooknanan asks Ensign for an explanation, he says it might be that they're waiting for resolution of this hearing
Why are these people always whining so much and acting as if they are a victim because sourdough bread exists?
But cities are too dangerous and everyone is afraid to walk around in them, at least per Republicans.
I landed in Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo once during an uprising where lots of men with bats were attacking cars and buses. So we got stuck at the airport for some time before we got a taxi to take us to a hotel. Turned out they were upset with local politician, not tourists.
Cannot imagine paying $700 to have to sleep in a coffin.
🚢 The Global Sumud Flotilla—the largest civilian mission to break Gaza’s siege—launches today, with 50+ ships from 44 countries. Drop Site editor Alex Colston is on board and will be reporting live as it sails from Barcelona toward Gaza.
There were protests at ONE Federal building in LA and this woman is suggesting the entire city is crime infested thanks to all the immigrants that she is promising to eradicate. Racism, lies, and fear is all they have to offer us.
I think we might finally get rid of that ugly fountain that has not worked in years in that Plaza.
No need to man-splain this to me peanut
Meet Patrick O'Hanlon, a thug with a badge
And when they say anything they talk about how we need to fund and support our local cops vs talking about the danger of militarizing our cities. Damn them both.
All I could figure out was these kids are living in detention centers or maybe with foster parents. They likely have family here waiting to take care of them, but it seems Trump wants to send them all back to Guatemala who agreed to accept them. Unsure how they will find their parents anywhere. 😢
whoa
At least here they get an actual room. Here in SF they are renting out sleeping "pods". One at least is having issues...
WTF are you talking about? A place that likes children?
BREAKING: Judge Sooknanan says the children are being removed right now so has advanced today’s hearing to 12:30pm. www.politico.com/news/2025/08...
Mulls? GMAFB
So young people re-invented the idea of having roommates, but with an app?
We deserve more from you than posting what we all know and pretending things are as they were in the 1990's. We need you you to FIGHT harder and dirtier and spare us your concern for "decorum". We are turning into a fascist nation. You are a disappointment to me.

I see I made the right decision to cut the cable and no longer watch cable news.
he thinks Italy is/was communist?
Whoa, this is very bad news on top of a situation that is already screwed thanks to the racist in our White House.
happy freaking Labor Day weekend from the Trump Administration
Stop this please. Un-following everyone who posts crap like this.
I truly hate that woman
My God, the USA is going to be even more responsible for a genocide than we are today? I have never been more ashamed of the USA. I have never had less respect for Republicans in my life.
What a lying piece of shit. These people are incapable of telling the truth. Their goal is to scare their racist base into enabling them to do horrific actions on many. I hope this bitch and her co-criminals suffer in their lives, sooner vs later please.
I'll remember that if I come across some of these thugs and tell them to think about the fact there is not statute of limitations on the crimes they are committing.
Sadly, I think the CDC is already gone as the world's premier health agency.
Every word out of Trump and his administration is a lie and in fact the exact opposite of what they say. We have insane men and women in charge of protecting our families. These are not simple policy disagreements, these people are destroying all of our systems and all we have taken for granted.
no question, they choose their seat over protecting kids
Someone needs to save our kids from this nutcase who seems determined to bring back Polio, Measles again and kill our kids.
