In 2005 San Francisco firefighter unions successfully pushed a proposition making it illegal to close or consolidate existing firehouses. It even prevents any apparatus from being changed. Despite some firehouses receiving < 3 calls a day. (not a typo)
Since then working fires have fallen 36% (309 to 197) as medical calls increased by far more.
More than a third fewer working fires. But each engine and tiller is a protected species (plus crew & exact role) and cannot ever be replaced with say, 3 ambulances and crews at ~same cost.
Meanwhile you still need an ambulance for transport. Which is going to be a while because as noted in an audit they cannot “add additional ambulance shifts by re-assigning existing resources from fire”.
But at least 5 guys in turnout gear can babysit with the $2.5M truck their medical kits are in.

we really need societal and technological antibodies against this kind of engagement bait

Who is tired of going to the grocery store and everything is locked up you gotta wait 10 minutes for them to open it. Who is tired that their neighborhood grocery store are closing down. I know I am so when I seen something, I said something.

Jeremy Lee had a public meltdown in 2022. Pure performative rage from the SF progressives per usual.
City College faces real problems. Budget shortfalls, enrollment drops, and financial chaos. The last thing the board needs is someone who can’t keep it together.

Narrative violation: under Newsom’s tenure, total emissions in California have increased so dramatically that the state has travelled backwards in time by entire decades—back to the 20th century
The entirety of the painstaking emissions reductions achieved at exorbitant, economy-crippling cost by a nearly endless proliferation of “green” and “sustainable” programs (mostly boondoggles) were completely obliterated ... by just a single year of Newsom’s homicidal incompetence in basic wildfire mitigation
Wildfire emissions in 2020 alone were 215% of the state’s entire emissions from electricity generation
The excruciatingly high energy bills and costly gas prices, the fraud-ridden “clean” energy boondoggles, and the insufferable smug pronouncements from those in charge … were all for nothing

I'm keeping count since 2023 of Non-profits who received city contracts being placed under investigation for misappropriation of funds, financial malfeasance, or other waste, fraud and abuse. That number is now at 15.
An affordable housing nonprofit is at risk of losing city funding after it reported that an employee made unauthorized expenses and engaged in “self-dealing.” sfchronicle.com/sf/article/m…

Ice pulls an illegal alien gang member with a manslaughter conviction and multiple domestic violence cases pending off the street and San Francisco Supervisors hold a protest defending him? Make it make sense!
The day after a rally against ICE at City Hall, it emerged that a man who was arrested Monday, as seen in a viral video, is facing multiple charges in San Francisco Superior Court. His sister says he’s changed.

A man charged with a South Bay murder was on the streets at the time of the crime thanks to San Francisco @SFSuperiorCourt judges’ willingness to keep granting him bail in the face of continuous arrests for major and violent crime, it has emerged. sfpublicsafety.news/prolific…
San Francisco is in bureaucratic hell.
@sfgov charges some of the highest taxes in the USA to subsidize services for drug tourists, but it also allows them to just decline those services.
We are left paying eye-watering costs AND trashed public spaces.
Sorry 6'4* xitter.cf/kane/status/2112978960…
Officers drew a gun on the guy because he literally has a conviction for killing someone and beating women with deadly weapons.
It would have taken @sfstandard a few minutes to check this, but the bar is on the floor.

California hasn't built its bullet train because the state has required 130,000 pages of environmental reports, making absurd demands like:
• counting bumblebees one by one
• rebuilding woodrat stick huts
• hiring specialized dogs to sniff lizard scat
This ongoing disinformation campaign is insane.
The man in question was 1) not a US citizen 2) convicted of killing someone in CA already 2) convicted of domestic violence 3) convicted of assault with a deadly weapon 4) 6'9 and 200 lbs.

Home security video captured three ICE agents cornering and questioning a man Monday morning in SoMa. One, a plainclothes officer, drew his gun on the man, who appeared unarmed.
When an agent asked why he ran, the man replied “I don’t know who you guys are,” explaining that he was on his way to work. “You’re violating my rights as a U.S. citizen.”

This nonprofit got $38M from @sfgov earlier this year btw.
@sfgov is trying to raise taxes on the ballot again:
More malicious misdirection by @GavinNewsom:
Allowing voter registration at the DMV is indeed federal law.
The issue at hand is California was letting non-citizens register and vote, both of which are felonies.
Texas actually deploys significantly more renewable energy than California, despite California charging residents more than double for energy:
