There's power in a #UNION & that's what sporting leagues are finding out... Wednesday night our delegates representing 136 unions used their collective voice to endorse the wildcat strikes of professional athletes in protest of the shooting of #JacobBlake in #Kenosha. #BLM

Protesters have the right to protest peacefully -- not be harassed. Not be shot at by rubber bullets or tear gas. Today I am calling for the creation of a new statewide standard for use of force in protests. Acts of violence against peaceful protestors will not be tolerated.

Her nothingness said everything: @CityAttorneySD doesn't think bias policing should end now. She needs to evaluate whether we need reform w/ all of the racial profiling that happens here & all of the studies on the subject. Enough w/ the studies! We need action! Vote her out!

I spoke with SD City Attorney @MaraWElliott about a number of issues including the historic SDSU stadium site sale. But take a listen to her answer to my question on police reform & an independent police practices commission ballot measure. #NBC7 nbcsandiego.com/news/politic…

I don't understand why anybody gets mad when Confederate flags get banned. Nobody is stopping you from getting a white cloth and waving it. #ConfederateFlag

So...now you know how much it costs to buy a vote from a politician without a moral compass. @bry4sd likes to claim that she doesn’t pander to special interests, but compare this to... 1/ – at San Diego, CA

This memo that she signed just 2 yrs ago, calling for strong labor standards on the very project that can’t get state funding now bc her wealthy donors want her to block 100s of millions of $$$ for community projects in SD that could put our neighbors to work on quality jobs. – at San Diego, CA

Conspicuous this high dollar fundraiser for her campaign was announced less than 2 hours before a committee meeting where she voted for her donors over funding community projects. These folks get paid a lot of money to make this timing look like a coincidence, but voters know. – at San Diego, CA

You can’t have it both ways and still have a democracy.

Much of yesterday’s comment was organized by youth. Kids who have been handed a dying planet, a dead economy, and maybe a death sentence for simply existing in black skin in America. You can’t demand peace on the streets and then scoff when they engage in government.

They’re expected to navigate a world where walking down a sidewalk can be a death sentence and the government just signs off on it. There’s a scale of wrongdoings here. Calling on people to “stay classy” shows that you’re focusing on the wrong end of it.

In the last 10 days they’ve been tear gassed, shot at with rubber bullets and bean bags, and watched their friends be abducted off the street in an unmarked car. Things are understandably tense right now. But even in “normal” times life isn’t that great.

Also— y’all need to get over the cussing. Yes, the language is profane, but the pain people feel is personal. Generational. Criminal. They’ve been margainalized, redlined, criminalized, stolen from, and hunted.

It’s not their fault they’re not informed. It’s a failure of public services.

AND our government, at all levels, spends great amounts of money to hide and obscure its actions. It lies to journalists. Redacts documents. Goes to court to prevent publication. Hides public files in confusing computer systems and building basements.

Disappointed in a # of posts from politicos making fun/beings dismissive of much of the public comment at last night’s City Council meeting.
