There's a profound arrogance driving Pete Hegseth and Stephen Miller. They simply don't think voters have deeply held convictions of any kind and can be manipulated into believing anything: Dropping bombs on children and deporting grandmothers is strength, video game war is real life, etc.

‘Trying to be Mother Teresa:’ Tenderloin leaders react to Mayor Lurie’s security brawl #### Read Mission Local often? Help **grow our newsroom** , joining the 3,250 readers who support us by giving below. Donate today! A day after a San Francisco police officer on Mayor Daniel Lurie’s security detail told _Mission Local_ that he was attacked while guarding the mayor, new security footage calls that claim into question. In a TikTok video posted online Friday, which appears to be a snippet from a surveillance camera over the Lower Nob Hill alley, the bodyguard appears to speak to Tony Phillips, 44, the man later identified by the San Francisco Police Department as having attacked the officer. Lurie is seen standing a few feet behind. Phillips, holding a blanket, is standing next to another man. He appears to try to walk around the bodyguard, approaching within a foot of his body.

Sign up Then, in a matter of seconds, the bodyguard abruptly shoves Phillips backward, knocking him into a pile of debris on the sidewalk. > @abuallah1 > > Welcome to the tenderloin The mayor of San Francisco getting attacked #foryourpage #tenderloin #fypシ゚viral #tik_tok #sanfrancisco > > ♬ I’m the Mayor – Mayor Philips rises and comes back at the bodyguard. The officer makes contact with him a second time, and the two go into a clinch. The bodyguard holds Phillips in a headlock before Phillips throws the officer to the ground, where the officer hit his head and sustained an injury. As the two men hold onto each other, Lurie can be seen backing away and then hurrying out of frame, seeming to signal to someone on Larkin Street. Moments later, another officer runs towards the two men on the ground, trying to pull Phillips off of the bodyguard, who is pinned to the ground. Another man, who officials identified as Abraham Simon, stood by as the two men fought. He briefly rushes towards the second bodyguard and shoves him to the ground before backing away. At the scene on Thursday evening, _Mission Local_ witnessed the bodyguard bleeding out of the back of his head. The officer told his fellow cops that two men had refused to comply with requests to move along, and that Phillips had come at him. The video calls the officer’s narrative into question. The _San Francisco Chronicle_ was first to report on Friday’s video. Lurie, when asked about the incident, also told _Mission Local_ that the men had tried to fight a police officer but did not mention the officer shoving the man to the ground. This morning, Lurie told press gathered at his City Hall office that the men had been blocking the middle of the street, though the 90-second TikTok video shows both men standing near the sidewalk on Cedar Street with plenty of room for cars to pass by. The mayor’s spokesperson declined to comment and said that the police investigation is “ongoing.” Phillips and Simon were arrested at the scene. Phillips was booked for threatening an executive officer, assault on a peace officer with force likely to cause great bodily injury, battery on an officer, resisting or obstructing an officer, and petty theft and possession of drug paraphernalia. Simon was booked for resisting or obstructing an officer. In 2019, Phillips was accused by police of stabbing a man to death a few blocks away, at Van Ness Avenue and Fern Street, though prosecutors declined to charge him. #### Join the 3,300 readers who keep Mission Local free for all!

Evidence Based Outrage

SF Stand Up For Science, a few of the signs.

The full video shows the guard initiating the fight by violently shoving the other person five or six feet and then attacking that person further. What actually happened? I’d like answers.

Everyone in San Francisco needs to watch the full video that was released subsequent to the short clip. This does not match the official narrative.

Recommend watching the full video that was released if you haven’t yet. It sure looks like Lurie and his security detail lied. Very strange.

CBS obtained video of the DHS killing of an unarmed man in Texas that DHS concealed for nearly a year, which clearly contradicts claims that he violently rammed anyone. He is shot with his brake lights on, car not moving or barely moving. Another DHS crime.

NO WAR ON IRAN!
Trump has launched strikes on Iran, dragging the US into war without approval from Congress.
Members of Congress must use every instrument possible to stop this war. Let Congress know we won’t accept less.

I imagine Republicans are proud of themselves, or deny, deny, deny.

ICE/Republicans do not want us to see what they are doing, watch what they are doing nor report on what they are doing.

Not regime change- societal collapse

This whole family, including a special needs child, was abducted in San Francisco by ICE when they showed up for a check-in. Now they’ve disappeared.

This is unacceptable. Call your reps. Take action. Fuck this shit.
