    My heart is bursting. On the eve of my first child's birth, my dad - who's been in prison nearly my entire life - was granted clemency. He never intended harm, yet his crime devastated many families. My heart breaks for the families that can never get their loved ones back.

    Right now if you're reading about crime in the news, youre being told you're less safe than ever & reforms are to blame. *Those are police talking points.* Facts: Crime is at historic lows. Reform is not to blame for any short-term upticks. Don't get duped.

    THREAD: As CA recall elections abound, youve probably heard & believe crime has been "surging" & "justice reform" is to blame. Those are calculated lies. Pushed by police & interests whose power feels threatened for the first time. Here's the truth in CA:

    Texas’s new abortion law—which the Supreme Court has failed to stop—is a threat to public safety. Public safety means protecting all people’s rights to control their bodies and access public health. Reproductive rights are human rights.

    Body camera footage can reveal a very different truth—including false charges. It’s why DA requires our prosecutors to review all body camera footage before charging any cases of resisting arrest or assault on an officer.

    Republicans, the police union, & the ultra-wealthy are banding together to overturn the results of the fair election of San Francisco DA . They want to roll back his progress on creating real public safety solutions, reducing incarceration, & holding cops accountable.

    People outside my trader Joe’s asking me if I’ll sign a petition to “recall racist school board members”. I grabbed the clipboard and read the fine print and the petition says recall . The amount of times I read the petition title and it’s something else in SF ....

    I didn't realize ghost guns had so proliferated in crimes, and that CA is where 65% of them have been confiscated. Also ironic: their promoter (Cody Wilson) was partly funded by some of the recall folks saying there's too much crime LOL
