This week the Sacramento Bee lauded the libs in this piece elevating the ever problematic police reform approach coming straight out of the city of Sacramento. We take some time to unpack the absurdities, amplify the truth to power takes, and generally get a tad yelly.
Speaking of the city, where is Sacramento County in all of this? The're also talking about alternatives to policing. Our friend Delphine breaks it all down for us in this Facebook post. Some big decisions are coming up at the county level, and input is paramount to making sure accountability and transparency move us forward. Remember: Sacramento County held community meetings on this topic while the city was busy hiring a cop to do the work all on her own.
We can't talk about local police issues without the giant elephant in the room: Darrell Steinberg isn't the new Attorney General, but the Bay Area's Rob Bonta is. We'll talk about what we think about Newsom's choice.
