Activists Should Ignore Newsom’s Town Hall Filibuster
Tomorrow, Mayor Newsom will hold his 5th neighborhood “Town Hall” as he avoids the voter-approved Question Time at the Board of Supervisors. This month, it will be in West Portal. If you didn’t know about it, you’re not alone. The Mayor’s Office sent a press release this week announcing it with little fanfare. Most of the media ignored the last one, and for good reason. There really is nothing left to report, as these “Town Hall lectures” are just city-funded campaign events for a Mayor who is running for re-election unopposed. The protesters came to the first few and made their point, but what else is there to prove? By continuing to attend these sessions, progressives are hurting their own cause more than Newsom’s.
