Iffy take: The "march for billionaires" was, contrary to consensus, a major triumph. A handful of nobodies with incoherent far-right politics produced a major media spectacle smack dab in San Francisco. Another win for fascist creep in California, facilitated by corporate media

signed up to collect signatures for SF's overpaid CEO tax, aka Stand Up For SF. I figure I can collect for this and the transit funding measure at the same time.

Shot/chaser

Billionaires like Lurie and his buddies prefer philanthropy to taxes because they decide how much to pay and how it's used. We should not believe for a second that it has anything to do with helping non-rich San Franciscans. #sfpol

Alan Wong is also working with Mayor Lurie on terrible legislation that would reduce SF's future tree canopy

On the one hand, this is absurd. On the other hand, I encourage Alan Wong to lead by example and demolish his own Sunset home to replace it with a parking lot.

Yup, this is the quality of our Lurie-appointed D4 supervisor #sfpol

More Parking for the Sunset

Image of cars in an angled parking lot

Whether it's fighting for a spot on Irving, circling Noriega, or trying to park anywhere near Taraval on a Saturday, you know how frustrating it can be. I've made parking access a priority for District 4, and have formally asked SFMTA to identify where we can add more parking across the Sunset with a target response date of January 15, 2026.

Know a stretch of road that could fit more spots? I want to hear from you -- share your suggestions here.

If you miss it, keep an eye on that page for further meetings in January (likely biweekly at the same time) or DM me for other ways to plug in. #sfpol

Ban cars, widen sidewalks, plant trees. The paucity of urban tree canopy in SF is closely connected to how much of our public space has been given over to cars.
