San Francisco residents express safety concerns over HomeRise, a housing site near Oracle Park and Chase Center. Political tensions rise as moderates and progressives clash over city leadership. Supervisor Connie Chan faces criticism and accusations in her reelection campaign.
Here's why one of San Francisco's biggest housing projects could shrink by hundreds of affordable apartments: https://t.co/neYJ2mLil8
What a tremendous candidate to wipe that millionaire outta here @DeanPreston https://t.co/Po52qkdjzt
"that San Francisco voters have tired of progressive members like Chan and have elected more moderate candidates, such as Supervisors Matt Dorsey and Joel Engardio, in recent years." @MarjanPhilhour 🎯🎯🎯 https://t.co/yCGYRBSZ2F
C’mon that is lame ! Take responsibility @conniechansf she opposed both recalls ! https://t.co/deQakt2coZ
Good thread with data on why SF has wasted an economic boom. SF needs to build. Noting as someone did in comments, that San Antonio is a bigger footprint city does NOT undo the point, that SF Nimbyism is hurting SF. https://t.co/lW9JdkDhjw
The coordinated attack on @conniechansf is not smart. Not only is the criticism full of double standards as Marjan also wanted to defund the police in 2020 (both of them are idiots), but she does in fact speak broken English. So do a lot of her constituents. What’s the big deal?
Has Marjan apologized for also wanting to defund the police and supporting prop 16 in 2020? I know Grow SF hasn’t. Why such double standards from the land grabbing YiMBYs? https://t.co/GEU14Ipk90
just a reminder that marjan philhour is with grow sf (the land grabbers) and she was also pro defund the police in 2020 what is the difference between her and connie chan? why is @SanFranciscoPOA endorsing her campaign? https://t.co/d3Ie1IzDIZ
Our mission is clear: to create a safer San Francisco where families and small businesses thrive. I'm proud to have joined the Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association this weekend to share more about my plans to do just that. https://t.co/nPrq9R9cXL

Bizarre quotes from embattled Connie Chan. Destined to play the victim, she’s suddenly pretending she doesn’t speak English well enough to be accurately understood. And opposing her at the polls means we don’t want to “fight for The Richmond.” https://t.co/bXqyPzYKLX
'Whether Peskin’s bill will pass muster in Sacramento has yet to be determined— a spokesperson at the California Office of Housing and Community Development, which has been riding herd on the city, told us they are “still evaluating the matter.”' https://t.co/rQujKEw7lJ https://t.co/PsWX2LeiTM
Supervisor Connie Chan in San Francisco told the truth about how she really feels about the police: “Definitely, it is time [to] dismantle and restructure our police department.” Now she's lying to cover it up. Vote @MarjanPhilhour for D1 Supervisor. https://t.co/vFBuPvfxQo
I call bullshit here @conniechansf “Chan was born in Hong Kong and grew up in Taiwan before she moved to San Francisco during middle school. Before being elected as a supervisor, she worked in nonprofits and different city departments as a spokeswoman. She briefly had a column… https://t.co/NldTBZiJbE

Facing a tough reelection campaign and allegations of being soft on crime, Supervisor Connie Chan is pushing back against opponent Marjan Philhour in an expensive November campaign. https://t.co/FXc7jEyjE1
Oh my lord of the rings no one is accountable and they all lie. “”Addressing the controversial “dismantle” the police quote, Chan said that as a non-native English speaker, she sometimes does not express herself as clearly as she intends to. While acknowledging she made the…
“Addressing the controversial “dismantle” the police quote, Chan said that as a non-native English speaker, she sometimes does not express herself as clearly as she intends to.” I think she was quite clear. Now she lies about. Vote @MarjanPhilhour https://t.co/PO0aNGrLJv
Supervisor @conniechansf speaks out against @MarjanPhilhour's "obsessive" campaign attacks, defends herself from anti-police allegations, and clarifies her 2020 controversial comments about dismantling the police department. https://t.co/WEsbNKM3dj
https://t.co/5ghHXFf1yQ Chan says she misspoke when she called to dismantle the SFPD. Did she also misspeak when she supported Boudin, Elias, and failed Prop B? When will she actually take responsibility for her failed positions? @VoteandChangeSF @GrowSF @TSFAction
Do @LondonBreed, @MarkFarrellSF, @DanielLurie and @Ahsha_Safai really want SF's mayor's race to be about support for upzoning? https://t.co/eXIIoM69kA
Some personal news: I’m excited to announce I’ll be the campaign manager for Aaron Peskin for Mayor. San Francisco permitted six units of housing in January, and that is six units too many—it’s time for a change, and by change, I mean even more ardent defense of the status quo!
SF needs a lot more housing. Are local #YIMBYs using a winning strategy? https://t.co/eXIIoM69kA @BayAreaCouncil @SPUR_Urbanist @HACdotorg @SFyimby

“Savvy candidates will try to capitalize on the small victories, testing the waters with stances the majority of SF appears ready for a more conservative view. On public safety, on the city’s out of control spending and more.” Via @greenbergnation https://t.co/nIPDDdcr41
'It’s still worth asking if Peskin wants the job... He cares far more about his policy agenda, which will likely include a ballot measure in November to undo recent housing legislation. His mayoral run could give it a significant platform' #SanFrancisco https://t.co/rQujKEw7lJ https://t.co/PYVvX9EZrY

San Francisco is Ready for a Political Revolution. Will there be a candidate up to the task? My latest column: https://t.co/lGl6WiZDfA https://t.co/ruVe0h9594
Our campaign is focused on helping neighborhoods like Chinatown be more clean, safe, and vibrant for our residents, workers, and visitors. Grateful for the support that is building behind our vision and plans for a stronger San Francisco, and we’re just getting started! https://t.co/WZV6qHbD28
Rather than a moderate San Francisco, I call it a commonsense San Francisco. Yes, the City has always been a little kooky and I love that about it, but the pure lack of commonsense in our “leadership” and a radical left that stole the term “progressive” has been disastrous. https://t.co/ccCA8zCP80

Tactically, Farrell is trying to punch the Chinese community's hot-button & present inclination to make the incumbent (a reformed de-funder of the #SFPD) and her police chief pay for their 屌-around-and-find-out approach to safeguarding Asian elders, women, and small businesses. https://t.co/2sFj7wdgu9
OPEN FORUM: "Moderate Republicans are positioned to reshape S.F.'s politics, and they already have an established playbook to draw on from a little-known part of their history — as the birthplace of gay Republicanism," says author Neil J. Young. https://t.co/X9FadXNcuJ
You've got to hand it to @AaronPeskin. The Supervisor's cynical campaign to preserve a handful of blocks in Telegraph Hill, which culminated in overturning @LondonBreed’s veto of his bill on March 26, was a calculated trifecta. He built momentum for a mayoral run; created a…
Didn't @AaronPeskin just down zone a huge part of his district to block housing density that the Court of Appeals highlighted as NIMBY in their decision? And 7 Supervisors in San Francisco who claim to be progressive agreed with it. @sbuss @garrytan @agarwal https://t.co/FYnmwLqCt2

"He thinks moderate Democrats with common-sense ideas are taking back their city, and he’s supporting centrists on the November ballot in hopes they will seize a majority of the board of supervisors." I agree. Let's save San Francisco. @garrytan. https://t.co/gxH0wPdtW7
San Francisco “moderates” are so irritating that I find myself rooting for the psycho commies in DSA. 🤷🏻♀️
