Pacific Legal Foundation is taking this Alameda County eviction ban to the 9th Circuit. This could end up at the Supreme Court. Stay healthy, Clarence! The Northern District of CA said a *three-year* eviction ban wasn't a taking because it's of "limited duration," (eyeroll), and the owners could sue the (always judgment proof) defendants for a (worthless) back rent judgment in civil court (while they terrorized the owners for years and trashed the place).

LAWSUIT: Alameda County's eviction moratorium let tenants trash homes, stay without paying rent, and terrorize property owners. PLF is fighting for California homeowners trapped in living nightmares by their own government.

Hanson sent a message to acting mayor Jenkins using Signal messaging app?? This is a deliberate effort to thwart public records access under the PRA! And goes against policies we negotiated with the city as part of our last lawsuit! oaklandside.org/2026/04/01/lei…

@marleensacks Surprised to see someone from ACTA on here. Marcus and Tom don't strike me as "twitter" people.

BREAKING. A Contra Costa Superior Court judge found that the ballot summary for the June 2026 Measure B tax hike violated California election law by being argumentative and/or prejudicial. As a remedy, he ordered a series of changes to the ballot language.

75% of Black Oakland residents surveyed say the taxes they pay are not worth it. Nine out of ten Black survey respondents said crime and public safety are “extremely concerning” — the highest concern level of any group for any issue in the survey. @lorenmtaylor oaklandreport.org/p/20260321-75-…

@sfchronicle Shame on you for using the “Zionist” label. Brandeis is a civil right non-profit that fights antisemitism. Your choice of words is duly noted.

The settlement comes just months after UC Berkeley reached a separate settlement with the Brandeis Center and agreed to pay an Israeli researcher $60,000 after admitting to discriminating against her over her nationality. eastbaytimes.com/2026/03/19/uc-…

@SusanDReynolds The facts are probably more complicated than people realize. If the evidence available supported charging a hate crime, Rosen would charge it.

@lwoodhouse What war was started by Israel? Are you referring to the US/Israel war on Iran? Seems like that was a collective effort…,
