Sure, some names should go (Serra, for example). But is this the thing the @SFUnified board should be spending its time on when kids have not been in schools for almost a year?
There’s pitiful connectivity to online classes in a lot of communities. Improving THAT seems like a higher priority this year.
Gold star example of San Francisco putting symbols of progressiveness or equity in front of actual work of progressive policies.
But not even a “rename the garbage station after GW Bush” dumbass ballot prop. Actual school board! Ffs
Still can't get over that THIS is what the @SFUnified board is spending its time doing right now. And some of these inclusions/exclusions are really 👀

1/ I've watched (part of) Navalny's "Putin's Palace" exposé, and I suggest you do same. (It is subtitled.) It's half psychological profile/biography and half @60Minutes style follow the money report, citing rafts of documents, using drone footage. Now...
2/ I cannot verify its claims. You'd need to be a Russian speaker commanding a team of forensic accountants, for starters. But the pattern of Putin using "wallets"—old friends and cronies to horcrux his vast stolen wealth—is well known. He may be richest person in world.
3/ "Putin's Palace" hones in on one...palace...estimated to cost $1.3 BILLION. But it's the pattern of how the money is hidden that's more nefarious, esp put against what Russia spends on its people in pensions and otherwise. Here's a @CNN summary cnn.com/2021/01/20/eur…
3/ This kind of direct and illegal pressure on DOJ (and Georgia, and god knows who else) to overturn election results isn't in the articles of impeachment but maybe it should be.
If Republicans think two weeks is going to present a better set of facts, boy I don't know.
WHO THE FUCK JUST HELD OFFICE AND WHAT KIND OF GOLD PLATED TOILET DID HE HAVE
Aside from everything else, like false equivalencies, which is the Times' Achilles heel, always, these two stories are a serious mismanagement of reporting firepower.
Watching @PressSec give a Before Times press conference—taking and answering questions openly and non-abusively—is something that not only members of the media should appreciate.
"Thank you everyone, let's do this again tomorrow."
