We should judge politicians and bureaucrats not on what they say, but by what their policies produce: in the case of City of San Francisco , it's death. Remember that. Beyond Homeless

You don't go to the DMV to get your car fixed. Why look to the government to advise you on health risks? We have practicing medical professionals for that, we don't need career bureaucrats. #NeverAgain Independent Institute

My Algebra teacher was Mrs. Kaid at the Garret Morgan Cleveland School of Science, an inner city school of working class students that was 95% Black and Brown. We all learned Algebra in the 8th grade. It was hard for many of us. Some people failed, but then they passed. No

In 1906, a fire destroyed 28,000 homes in San Francisco and left 250,000 residents homeless. Yet it took only five years for the city to rebuild its pre-disaster housing capacity. So why is it so hard to build housing in San Francisco today? ocregister.com/2024/04/16/why…

Am I the only one who remembers that the feds took over #studentloans to pay for #Obamacare? New study by The Wharton School calculates cost of Biden's #studentloans proposals will cost taxpayers $559B--with expanded benefits accruing to households > $300k. budgetmodel.wharton.upenn.edu/issues/2024/4/…

"Some call for forgiving, forgetting lockdowns - NO. Why? ▪️the public needs to know the truth; ▪️we must succeed in the next crisis; ▪️publicly demanding admission of failure adds accountability. But I'm not naive, they'll never apologize [it requires integrity]" #Accountability

Trump campaign rakes in $34.8 mm in 7 hours following guilty verdict. Thanks, taxpayers who funded the trial and media for making him top news daily: you can't buy that kind of coverage! Can we talk about real issues now? #Inflation #Peace #Liberty msn.com/en-us/news/pol…

Lies, damn lies, and statistics: “Citywide Weekly Crime Reports” published by City of Oakland police, compare incomplete year-to-date figures from the current year to complete year-to-date figures from past years. Time for a clean-up. sfchronicle.com/crime/article/…

.Gavin Newsom : you've driven the problem. You've provided funds with no accountability. The numbers of people experiencing homelessness grows as you fling more $$. These are humans who deserve a solution: not political posturing. Beyond Homeless Independent Institute

Ironic that Robert Reich is a professor at Ground Zero of the free speech movement: “Musk’s free-speech rights under the first amendment don’t take precedence over the public interest.” What "public interest" will exist without #FreeSpeech? Elon Musk theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

On the anniversary of "9/11," I am mourning the loss of our American culture—we well and truly traded #liberty for no safety. But this can be reversed! Independent Institute blog.independent.org/2024/09/11/liv…

China's Xi and CA's @gavinnewsom have something in common: an obsession with pouring infinite amounts of money into the "money pit" of high speed rail. Servicing debt alone for rail now costs China $25 billion annually. How much for Newsom's dream? wsj.com/world/china/xi…

Thanks to the Feds and "Urban renewal," West Oakland went from being the vibrant "Harlem of the West" to one of the most challenged areas in the Bay. Seneca Scott Independent Institute independent.org/article/2025/1…
