Replacing income tax with revenue from tariffs is effectively replacing income taxes with sales taxes, shifting the tax burden from the rich to the poor and middle class. It's clear who Trump works for.

What a sad state our national leadership is in. Do these people know what socialism is? Many forms of it are used today, including in the U.S.A.

A new Blue Bottle just opened a few blocks from us. Now, within 1 mile, there are 2 Philz, 3 Starbucks, 2 Blue Bottles, 1 Peet's, and at least 7 locals. This doesn't count what's inside the ballpark, Chase center, or the 2 Whole Foods. I know I'm missing some. Nice living in San Francisco..

Trump is an incompetent weakling.

He controls the Executive branch and the majority in the Senate and House. He has a hand picked Supreme Court that rubber stamps his every move. But he can't keep the US government open for business. What a rump.

Day 38 of the Trump shutdown.

#Mariners squeak into the ALCS. 15 innings. Wow!

We don't see long extra-inning games like that anymore with the ghost runners used during the regular season. I'll bet none of the players in last night's game had ever played in a game that long.

I went to bed at the end of the 13th.

I just voted for gerrymandering.

I never thought I'd say that.

Our beautiful country is going through a terrible time. We have to make progress toward a better future in the November 2026 midterm elections.

Pacific Fusion joins the Isotopes in Albuquerque. I'm sure they chose Albuquerque over Livermore and Alameda because the Albuquerque Isotopes are there. Wouldn't you want your nuclear fusion business to be in a town that celebrates isotopes?

Trump says beating up your wife at home is ok.

“Things that take place in the home they call crime. They’ll do anything they can to find something. If a man has a little fight with the wife, they say this was a crime scene.”

Bryce Eldridge's AAA strikeout rate is 35% and his walk rate is 11%. The #SFGiants already have power hitters who strikeout a lot, they don't need another. Eldridge needs to improve his plate discipline and increase his contact rate. #MLB

It's ironic we still have a labor day. Labor is no longer respected in the USA.

We should cancel Labor Day and Independence Day and replace them with Rich Guys' Day and Totalitarian Day.
