If you want an example of Scott Wiener's rank hypocrisy, here you go. Scott came up with performative and unenforced state laws prohibiting ICE from wearing masks and letting you sue them. Illegal fed use of Flock cameras that his tech donors invested in? Crickets
Mission Local@MLNow

JUST IN: Feds & out-of-state agencies "improperly" accessed San Francisco license-plate surveillance data from Flock cameras, according to an SFPD audit. SFPD says neither ICE nor DHS accessed data directly. missionlocal.org/2026/06/federa…

Amazing what a facile understanding these guys have of SF politics. Center of power has been district 2 for decades: Pelosi, Feinstein, Newsom, Lurie, Gettys, Ron Conway. They did zero for cost of living, electing a few progressives didn't stop their strategy of doing nothing
Total NIMBY Death@BarneyFlames

its hilarious leftists basically lost control of SF because leftists are huge NIMBYs, and as a result only rich not leftist techbros can afford to live in SF now.

@KenanPerry @BarneyFlames It was severely understaffed, which is why Laurie pushed so aggressively to hire more police. And that dumbass Chesa Boudin?

@torture_nexus But then they also cut 25M people off Medicaid in the 18 months leading up to the election. No short term thinking either

One of the biggest missteps of the Biden admin was too much long term thinking actually. Voters are deeply impatient. "They're mad now but once these chip factories and infrastructure projects are finished, voters will love us" is why Trump came back
Bharat Ramamurti@BharatRamamurti

I have no issue with Project 2029 and similar plan-generating initiatives. But as I write today, what I think Democrats really need is a Project 2050: a concerted effort to decide what we think America should look like in 2050 if we regain political power in DC. 1/

@NickyFrank30 Why is someone in NY making things up about SF politics? Just go back to the Nov 2024 ballot measures: everything supported by progressives won; everything supported by tech lost. We also elected a DSA supervisor over an ex-AIPAC guy by 20 points

@fulligin What else is in the yimby propaganda book for today? "Scott, a long-time critic of Israel, has never taken anything from AIPAC, clearly opposes ICE, definitely isn't in the pocket of billionaires, doesn't want more people in jail for minor crimes"

This is about SF's other congressman (I used to be in that district but they moved the boundary) and it could just as easily be written about Scott Wiener. We don't need to pretend this isn't happening. jweekly.com/2022/11/18/how…

He blocked me, clearly they are concerned about Scott’s record on these topics, enough to try to end the discussion

@loomdoop @_jordan0001 @joetobomb There is some real cognitive dissonance in a bunch of liberal zionists acting like "Zionist" is a slur. "My ideology, which I think is great, should not be known by the term adherents of said ideology use to describe themselves because that term implies something bad"

@_jordan0001 @joetobomb There's no need to assume. He has 15 years of action and statements in public office, is a self-professed Zionist, has taken state lobby trips to Israel - one in support of the genocide in 2024 – and has done everything in his power in state government to repress dissent.

Saikat is probably among the richest NIMBY socialists in the United States, trying to buy a seat in Congress for one of San Francisco's OG NIMBY socialists. A bit of a litmus test for DSA: Are they with the rich NIMBYs? I think they're gonna answer yes, as usual.
Saikat Chakrabarti@saikatc

I'm proud to back Connie Chan for Congress to represent San Francisco and plan to do everything I can to help her win. She is the only candidate in this race who takes no corporate money, who supports a wealth tax on billionaires, and who will vote to end all military aid to Israel - offensive and defensive. We must break the stranglehold of corporate money in Congress, and Connie will be a part of the movement to do exactly that.

@lesuperburp Don't forget: 4a) Scott's not a Zionist This stuff is so nuts. Even Peskin and Ronen are Zionists. These yimby doofuses understand so little about Israel that they think Wiener's self-description (liberal Zionist) is a slur while they support liberal Zionism

Yimby’s today: 1. We support charter schools 2. We’re against rent control 3. We hate unions 4. Wiener is actually the Israel critical candidate. (Worse gaslighting of all time).

Its pretty telling how intellectual dishonesty is a crank disease when both Marie Hurabiell supporters AND Connie Chan supporters are rehashing the talking point of: "Scott Wiener has been in office since 2017 and rents have gone up"
Tasteless Alex@TastelessAlex

If your city builds no new housing and is outright hostile to new housing, all the pro housing laws at the state level aren't going to matter. Blame yourselves. Don't blame the people trying to make it easier to build

It's important to remember that Rafael Mandelman authorized the SFPD overtime that led to this. All because Garry Tan didn't want it in front of his second home. yimby but not in D8
Mission Local@MLNow

Will teens arrested by SFPD during the 2023 Dolores Park hill bomb get a hefty payout? Plaintiffs who filed a civil rights class action lawsuit want a jury trial. The city attorney wants a federal judge to decide. missionlocal.org/2026/06/dolore…

@yin_yang_yo_ 1) We don't know that given the opacity of PACs; 2) Convenient dodge if it's just all of Thiel's friends. Wiener is very careful criticizing Thiel

Peter Thiel said women and non-white people shouldn't have the right to vote. Scott Wiener's congressional campaign is funded by Thiel's friends from Palantir and it's somehow not an issue

@stefanoscalia @themtorres Basically agree with you all the way here except for one area that has the lowest percentage of green space in the entire city, and is also ripe for housing, retail, and transit. I’ve done the homework – 20-30,000 housing units right there at least, plus *minimal* traffic impact:

I'm so tired. I don't want a single new park in San Francisco. We don't need them. At all. I just want housing. Market rate. BMR. Whatever. Just housing. Retail. Transit. I don't care about parks or open space. We have so much in the bay. We're drowning in it.
