If by interesting you mean devastating, yet again, yeah. Agreed.

How California Can Neuter β€œCitizens United” and Improve Democracy for Us All The Golden State has an opportunity to save American democracy from big corporate money

I really wish we could do this. I’ve been talking for years and years about the ills of Citizens United to anyone who will listen. It feels like a pipe dream but I’m here for it.

THE MOST RECENT DATA SHOWS VIOLENT CRIME IS DOWN 12% IN CALIFORNIA’S MAJOR CITIES!

@governor.ca.gov Gavin Newsom is building on that progress β€” announcing an additional $107 million to be invested in communities to further prevent gun violence and reduce crime.

Our weapons barely matter - there’s a misinformation war that’s been raging for years. We’ve lost it so hard most of us don’t even know it’s happening.

So um. Haven’t heard much about Ukraine in awhile. Hope it’s going OK over there. 😬

They not only failed to get an indictment, they failed to get a single grand juror’s vote. It’s probable that this has never happened before.

Likely because the DOJ has never sent hack political appointees to attempt to get indictments on sitting Congress members over protected speech before.

San Francisco’s property taxes generate hundreds of millions of dollars earmarked for schoolsβ€”but since 2017, that money has been redirected to the city’s general fund instead of SFUSD. Over $2 billion so far.

SFUSD’s deficit could be eliminated with a fraction of this β€œExcess ERAF” funding. Instead, the district is cutting teachers, increasing class sizes, and eliminating specialists while the city keeps the money.

Worse: the city financially benefits when enrollment drops or kids miss schoolβ€”both reduce what SFUSD gets and increase what goes to the city.

The ask: Redirect existing property tax dollars (already set aside for education) back to schools. No new taxes needed.

SFUSD, property taxes, and city funding.

This approach requires no new taxes, only new priorities.

Letter Urging the City to Fund SFUSD We are calling on San Francisco leaders to establish a local funding stream that redirects a fair share of Excess ERAF revenue back to SFUSD to fully fund our schools, including salaries ...

Wondering why a city with high property taxes still has an underfunded school district? The city ends up with millions earmarked for education. Read more to find out why and sign the petition to urge city leaders to redirect funds back to SFUSD. actionnetwork.org/letters/lett...

Another fun fact: she was not given a middle name at birth and the Navy didn’t know how to handle this on their forms, as fields could not be left blank. She said they made her write β€œNone” as her middle name and sometimes, during roll call, they would announce β€œNone” as if it were her middle name πŸ˜‚

This is good but something is missing… something related to the stream of misinformation we know comes from Russia and other countries. We don’t seem to talk about that, enough.
