Zohran Mamdani’s proposal for an additional 2% tax on incomes over $1 million has provoked gloomy prophecies of elite exodus.

Just got back from protesting ConnectedSF's gala. This org's leader Marie Hurabiell tweeted that trans women aren't women and undocumented people are violent criminals. And Mayor Lurie was a featured guest helping her fundraise! Clearly, Lurie is not good at vetting people. 🧵
