Road Ghosts memoir: A rollicking journey across America in search of purpose and reawakening; a coming-of-age probe of the soul; philosophical inquiry of our times akin to Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. Comps = Heartland, The Glass Castle, Wild, and Nomadland. #PitMad

Steyer has been a leader in burning hundreds of millions on failed campaigns for president & governor
If you consider him such a leader, why is your only tweet mentioning him before this in an attack on your opponent who spent far less on his campaign?
Tom does support Prop 40
Saikat has now put in just shy of $10 MILLION of his corporate/private equity wealth to purchase San Francisco’s seat in Congress. JUST FOR THE PRIMARY.
Saikat is spending 4 times more per resident than Tom Steyer & far more than all other candidates & PACs combined.
Saikat’s corporate self funding is 96% of his total campaign money. He’s raised very little from others & almost nothing from San Franciscans — a mere 7% of his donors are local residents.
It’s a classic astro-turf campaign by someone with almost no local connection or involvement.

Don't let the U.S. government force federal employees to sign outrageous nondisclosure agreements.

The attacks on #IlhanOmar are completely despicable and absolutely racist--and aimed only at boosting the flailing MAGA vote. They know they have zero "case," this is all GARBAGE that even DHS refuted years ago.

Proud to earn the United Farm Workers’ endorsement!
As an immigrant and labor Democrat, I know workers’ rights and immigrants’ rights are inseparable.
In Congress, I’ll fight for fair wages, safe workplaces and the freedom to organize. #SíSePuede

From her American Dream and Promise Act to her Block the Bombs Act, @DeliaRamirezIL is an unwavering champion of human rights at home and abroad.
I’m proud to earn her support and look forward to joining her in Congress to take on Trump and fight for working families.
Makes you wonder (still) about Lurie's "private" chat with Trump about SF and ICE... @DanielLurie release the damn phone records already! It happened on our taxpayer dimes and it's public information. @SFDemocrats

oh my fucking god
The San Francisco Police Department has purchased Israeli surveillance technology that has been used to monitor Palestinians in East Jerusalem.
"The SFPD, which began using BriefCam in August, paid $198,000 for a three-year contract, using federal grant funds"
"The SFPD can use BriefCam to review thousands of hours of video feed from live and recorded footage from a combination of sources, including its nearly 500 Flock cameras, privately accessed camera networks, and other city-run or -owned cameras."

At all times, the Bay Area right wing's overarching motto is "what can we get away with, how far can we push things, how much hypocrisy will the public tolerate before even a corrupt local media machine can't repair things" sfist.com/2026/10/08/is-mann…

Every SF politician puts a Chinese name in their social media bio. But Connie, I believe, is the only one currently in office who actually speaks it.
I love the last line in here.

The San Francisco Democratic Party responded to this by having a meeting where the accuser gave detailed testimony about his sexual assault.
After which the party said "sorry, our rules about sexual assault only apply to our events. This was at a house party" and endorsed him.

So stoked for this. Gil Duran is one of the few journalists who listened to what local online activists were saying about the SF recalls and the right-wing tech billionaires funding them. In the book he credits @sf_mills for making him aware of the Network State.

Tom's butt-hurt because the intrepid @sf_mills has exposed his links to right-wing bigots and Earth-wreckers. It's affecting his ability to maximize his "recovery" (ahem) grift in a city that generally disdains white supremacists.

This guy has donated over 100k to Scott Wiener's campaign PACs, and everyone is still like bUt SCoTt iS GaY! Yup, and so is George Santos and Flock lobbyist/McCain campaigner Trevor Chandler. The Venn diagram of Trump donors and Scott Donors is near unity.
Chris Larsen also ranks #8 this year for campaign spending – just slightly below Miriam Adelson. His spending is mostly on Republicans, including millions to Trump.
But in SF, his spending is all on Democrats, Because it's easier to win here as Democrats.
