I want to point out this for a while but I guess it's time now.

For those who get confused by this parody account, the Chinese characters '犯罪女王' in its name literally mean 'The queen of committing crimes' or simply 'Crime Queen.'

Today's D3 Supervisor Debate in Cantonese was a success! Thank you to our moderator Han Li 李晗 & Chinese Culture Center of San Francisco for the venue. We continue the legacy of Auntie Rose by ensuring the needs of Chinatown are heard, debated, and adressed.

Thanks Han Li 李晗 for moderating, looking dapper today!

Thank you to everyone who attended the event!

I had a great time moderating the debate and witnessing all the nasty fights and attacks 👀😉

Already an update: Ortiz has been placed on “indefinite leave” by the Chinatown Community Development Center (CCDC) board.

CCDC is one of the most politically powerful nonprofits in San Francisco.

NEW: San Francisco Democrats are launching a new committee to look into sexual assault allegations against local political leaders, including Jon Jacobo & a local Dem club president.

Multiple sources confirmed the 2nd person referenced is Kevin Ortiz.

Been on the mend since Friday. Fractured my tibia in a car collision. But before I ended up pumped full of meds last week, I met with Latricia and Raymond who detailed to me how they ended up in jail after trying to help find Latricia’s missing daughter. My latest for The San Francisco Standard

For her first public appearance since arrival at SFO returning from China, Mayor London Breed visited Chinatown & unveiled her newly designed campaign sign.

Despite the bad polling, she appeared to be highly popular and people constantly stopped her and requested to take photos.
