I am confident the contents of the full files are worse than what we know, and that the conduct not captured by them is magnitudes more horrifying than most people are imagining, and that none of it matters if what we already know is not enough to lock him up forever

So far, the Council has done very little oversight work. But the budget can be an effective way of doing it. For example, instead of trying to litigate the Mayor's shelter strategy as an amendment to a complicated technical budget exercise, do it as a part of a deep-detailed oversight effort. 3/

āBut you ran on cleaning up the garbage!ā Yesā¦and people are not garbage. And a lot of the garbage at encampments comes from illegal dumping from housed people. We should just stop people from becoming homeless in the first place.

I was confused about this argument but I understand it now. The argument is we should stop objecting to the cruelty of Wilsonās homeless policy and let him be cruel, because heās less cruel than he could be, and we should be cruel to the homeless, who are, across the board, mentally ill or junkies

Building up shelter capacity as a pretext for arrest is predatory. Euphemizing sweeps as sanitation is eugenicist. Standing up community courts to assign arrestees uncompensated labor is slaver action. Standard issue Nazi shit

Our amendment doesnāt cut those things. Mayor Wilson couldāve called me to clarify and ask questions before blasting us in a newsletter, but of course he has to find a scapegoat when he doesnāt magically end homelessness on 12/1 by warehousing people. Looking forward to clarifying this tomorrow.
