Hi, this is a time sensitive query: tomorrow was made a Federal holiday by executive order. I'm trying to figure out if immigration court hearings are in session at 26 Federal Plaza and can't get clear information. Please help.

They need that money for the billionaires

Yet another round of heavy showers and thunderstorms, some strong to even severe, immediately inbound into the SF Bay Area this evening. Yet more strong/damaging winds likely, plus torrential downpours & urban flooding in some areas. A brief tornado remains possible. #CAwx

waymo paused its robotaxi service as national weather service issued flash flood warnings in SF on christmas - @cnbc.com www.cnbc.com/2025/12/25/w...

Catching up on my reading list this holiday season @thewaroncars.bsky.social

When I was on CNN's northeast desk, the first job at 6a every morning was to read the local papers. That guided some of what the massive CNN machine followed every day. When those papers die, CNN doesn't hire new regional reporters. What you get instead is more panel shows, more punditry.

Wow. Roaring rain 🌧️ & hurling 💨wind sound like a freight train tonight in #SanFrancisco

Everyone is vulnerable to LongCOVID (studies show that your risk of LongCOVID increases with each infection Protect yourself, your family, your friends, and community Merry Christmas 🎄 🧵 3/3

But if you really want to prevent COVID / the flu, you’ll need to wear a respirator mask (KN95 or better) and use a HEPA air purifier to clean the air Layers work best 🧀 COVID and the flu are surging in North America and cases will increase more after Christmas 🎄 and New Years 🎉 🧵 2/3

now reading (after a long delay, oop!) the @thewaroncars.bsky.social book thanks to @brooklynspoke.bsky.social sending a copy. very excited to read it. plus the cover is gorgeous

“Medicare for all” doesn’t seem all that hard to understand. So many ways to do it

They just keep digging themselves deeper & deeper & it all looks more & more slimy with every “new” pronouncement SLIME

What could possibly go wrong?!

I am telling you that a large part of their dysfunction is that several Trump officials imagine themselves, constantly, as being in a social media sizzle reel where they display status and dominance over others. Their online personas are driving their actual behavior.

Everyone in the government that was involved in sending American people to the CECOT concentration camp must go to prison. Prison. There must be consequences. Starting with Kristi Noem.

🙏❤️❤️❤️

I love that he's explaining the housing crisis from the landlord perspective

@interfaithalliance.org put out a powerful piece for the holiday.

Garcia: They are, on one hand, putting names of survivors in these documents that are not redacted. And in these same documents, they're taking extra time and being extra careful to redact the names of the coconspirators

Hello, my name is Jonathan, but in Washington state I go by DEUSJZ MEMORIAL BIKE BRIDGE for legal purposes

Merry Christmas!

Some politicians said the widespread blackouts should make San Francisco redouble its years-long effort to take over PG&E’s electric infrastructure.

Journalists will increasingly need *some* kind of tipline. If not SecureDrop, then Signal, or simply a postal address for anonymous mail. It's not just Daniel Ellsberg types. Even on beats like real estate, sports, or finance, journalists can expect leaks data dumps to be increasingly relevant.

Wow.

2 years old! Both parents deported, weeks ago! Her sister got the call, ‘We’re being detained. Take care of Sofía.’” Sofía wakes in the middle of the night crying out for her mother and “takes her mom’s photo and hugs it." Sister needs $ for basic expenses as they work on reuniting the family.

This is a sickness

We should start calling them illegal parking lanes, why even pretend anymore

Our sandbag operation will start up again tomorrow morning. SF residents & businesses can get up to 10 free sandbags at our Operations Yard, Marin/Kansas streets. We’ll be open Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday this week, 8AM-2PM, but closed on Christmas. sfpublicworks.org/services/san...

Percentage seems low

I have several attractive bridges for sale

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

The other YT link has been taken down. This one is still up (as of now)

On Friday, the federal judge Casey Pitts ordered a halt to courthouse arrests in Northern California and the Pacific Islands. A final ruling on whether the practice can continue is expected in the coming months. missionlocal.org/2025/12/sf-i...

BREAKING: Judge James Boasberg rules for those deported under the Alien Enemies Act on March 15 — certifying a class, finding the U.S. maintained constructive custody over them at CECOT, finding they were not given due process, and ordering return or that such process be given by Jan. 5, 2026.

That there’s no similar concern about offshore oil platforms shows that this is complete nonsense.

If this doesn't motivate you to vote in the Midterms, nothing will.

This is a nice donation, but I’m old enough to remember when universal school meals was our nationwide policy across the United States of America, way back in the early 2020s. We can and should do that again.

US Immigration and Customs Enforcement is arresting people in front of their kids during school drop-offs, on the way to church, and at routine check-ins at immigration offices. Communities are pushing back, leading to clashes with police and protests. These raids are remaking the country.

/8 These culture war issues always flip the script. I think recent events demonstrate why it is, in fact, dangerous to give students a veto over professors based on disagreement with their speech.

Most of us don't see cars and the raging rivers of asphalt all around us because that is the sea we swim in. Choosing cars as our main transportation has pulled the life out of our future and our children's future: our health, money, nature are depleted. We have a choice 🚲

For non-PGE dependent light during the #SanFrancisco blackouts, this Goal Zero Lighthouse Mini Core Lantern is a great choice: rechargeable, adjustable light levels, casts a warm glow, very portable. In fact, @pacificgaselectric.bsky.social should just send one to every affected household!

"These men risked their lives to speak with us. We have a moral and professional obligation to the sources who entrusted us with their stories. Abandoning them now is a betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism: giving voice to the voiceless." - Sharyn Alfonsi, CBS 60 Minutes

This year, many people resigned their posts at the slightest hint that the Trump regime was displeased with them instead of staying and making someone fire them. Sharyn Alfonsi is showing us why you stay and refuse: you make clear your superiors are wrong and may them pay the costs of firing you.

Seems like 60 Minutes needs to do a 60 Minutes piece on the destruction of 60 minutes. @60Minutes #CBSNewsMAX @CBSNews

60 Minutes journalist Sharyn Alfonsi sharply summarizes the appalling decision of Bari Weiss not to run her CECOT story: “If the administration’s refusal to participate becomes a valid reason to spike a story, we have effectively handed them a ‘kill switch’ for any reporting they find inconvenient.”

U.S. regulators have the structural integrity of a grade school paper maché project caught in an afternoon thunderstorm

support independent media. idk what else to say right now.

Oops spoke too soon, power out again
