The LYING SF Mayor Gavin Newsom and the Out Migration of thousands of Black from SF. The lying San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom has with intent targeted poor communities and has divided Public Housing among the Developer Thugs - the John Stewart gets to keep Huntersview, Mercy Housing can play with all of Sunnydale by Visitation Valley, and the Bridge Developer can reunite with the mostly White Potrero Hill residents after gentrifying the area. Mayor Gavin Newsom is a RACIST and with the added talent of lying - will set San Francisco on FIRE. No wonder they call him CALIGULA!...

The Wharton School of Business vs. SF Hotel Workers Friday, June 26, 2009 :
At first blush, the Wharton School, based at the Ivy League University of Pennsylvania, does not seem likely to be a factor in San Francisco politics. But Wharton, founded in 1881, billing itself as the "world's first collegiate business school," also has an outpost in our City by the Bay. Located "near the heart of San Francisco's business district" in the historic Folger Building at 101 Howard, Wharton San Francisco "extends the reach of the School's programs... to...

Newsom’s Exploding Police Budget Thursday, June 25, 2009 : Since becoming Mayor in January 2004, Gavin Newsom has taken a Police budget from $295 million to $433 million – due to imprudent fiscal decisions. For probably the first time ever, Newsom’s proposed budget this year would put more General Fund money in the Police Department than Public Health. But that’s not just because he’s running for Governor....

Supes Pass Rent Laws Despite Veto Threat Wednesday, June 24, 2009 : The Board of Supervisors passed three pro-tenant measures yesterday, sponsored by Chris Daly and designed to help renters facing tough times. The measures: (a) allow tenants to take on unrelated roommates, (b) limit “banked” rent hikes to 8% a year and (c) block rent increases for “financial hardship.” Before the vote, Daly amended the “financial hardship” proposal so that it applies to fewer tenants – and added a sunset provision for when the economy rebounds....

Arnold and Gavin: Opposing “Share the Pain” Budgets Tuesday, June 23, 2009 : San Francisco’s budget battle between the Mayor and Board of Supervisors bears a strange resemblance to what’s going on in Sacramento. Democrats in the state legislature have proposed a budget that “shares the pain” – which includes a tax on oil companies and other revenue measures to avoid the worst cuts in health and human services....

How to Cut San Francisco’s Fire Department Monday, June 22, 2009 : An angry contingent of firefighters stormed City Hall last week, upset that the Board of Supervisors would “cut $82 million” out of the Police, Fire and Sheriff Departments. That number, however, is misleading – because it’s what the Supervisors want to take out of a budget proposal for next year that gives all three agencies a raise....
