Today Speaker Emerita Pelosi hosted a special Politics & Eggs breakfast with our dedicated volunteers and special guest Rep. Jamie Raskin. It was an honor meeting one of the most brilliant minds in Constitutional law. 🇺🇸

As a long-time Castro resident and neighbor I’ve patronized our small businesses over the past 15 years, and both Castro Coffee and Castro Nail Salon are anchors in our community.

Shout out to Hans How and team for raising critical funds tonight at QBar in the Castro for LGBT Asylum Project, Parivar Bay Area, and others.

You can still make it for food, entertainment, and fun, until 9pm!

Today I woke up with 14 full years of sobriety from drugs and alcohol, and I *almost* forgot!

Time flies when life happens with a clear head.

Grateful for so many people, experiences, and the program of AA/CMA, that made this possible, thank you all! 🥰

I’m just glad Merrick Garland can sleep well knowing he followed norms and traditions!

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

Written right there in the Constitution.

The President cannot change that with the stroke of a pen.

Remember when being a woman was a pre-existing medical condition? Insurance companies could actually deny coverage for pregnancies.

MAGA Republicans have promised to repeal the Affordable Care Act and leave every person in the US with a pre existing condition vulnerable again.

We will stop them!

Spent yesterday touring a number of HealthRIGHT 360 programs and SoMa with a wonderful delegation from Zurich as part of their 20yr partnership with SF - leadership from their police department, department of health, supervised consumption site program, & harm reduction & illegal substances. 💪🏼

Spending time with my grandmother and somehow we started talking about Prohibition. “All the rich doctors and judges thought they were better than everyone else because they could afford ‘the recipe’ - but my dad was the only one that had ‘the recipe’ and they were all buying it from us. 😂

“What it [the city] did not do is tell anyone about any of this ahead of time. It did not reach out to skaters, it did not announce its intention to close down Dolores Street, it did not plaster posters in the area — or post on Instagram — warning people to stay away.”
SF shutdown of Dolores hill bomb overlooked detail: telling anybody
San Francisco has shut down rowdy events before, but it has usually told people, repeatedly, ahead of time. Not so for the hill bomb.

Please support striking workers in the way they’ve asked for. Instead of a viewer boycott, which they haven’t asked for, can you commit to donating to the strike fund, which they have? Maybe an amount equal to what you pay for streaming each month, for even one of the streamers, if not all?
I think we should be talking about a viewer's strike right now. Cut off the streaming services at least, until an agreement is reached with WGA and SAG. Maybe no movies as well? What do you think?

“We’re not going to mince words here: It’s incredibly shameful, chauvinistic, and outright abominable how SF police handled minors participating in what’s largely considered an accepted July happening.”
San Francisco Police Corral, Zip-Tie Over 80 Young People in Mass Arrest Near Dolores Park
Sunday night around 8:45 p.m., SFPD officers in riot gear trapped dozens of teenagers during the annual "Hill Bomb" event in San Francisco.

Throwback to a June 2016 interview with PBS on, “The housing shortage and homelessness in San Francisco. Is there a solution?”

Sadly, I could give this same exact interview today - over 7 years later. 🏡
The housing shortage and homelessness in San Francisco. Is there a solution?
With diminishing housing options and soaring rents, the city has one of the higher homelessness rates in nation.

The “why do more people keep dying if we keep trying more harm reduction” people are exhausting in their closedminded ignorance.
A)We barely allow any harm reduction.
B)Things keep getting worse for every other reason; harm reduction is proven to benefit everyone, not even just people who use drugs!
