"El Rio, Zeitgeist and more push back on new SF bar ordinance
A petition undersigned by El Rio, Zeitgeist and more is gaining steam
A new ordinance proposed by San Francisco District 7 Supervisor Myrna Melgar aims to ban smoking on bar patios, and some local venues aren’t happy about the plan.
(. . .)Several bar owners said that it puts an undue burden on their businesses and that the supervisor’s office didn’t do the necessary community outreach. In reaction, 13 Bay Area bars, including the Stud, Mothership and Horsies Market & Saloon, have crafted a petition opposing the ban. It’s estimated that approximately 50 bars would be affected by the change. The petition has racked up 1,488 signatures as of Friday morning.
(. . .)
Under current regulations, businesses that operate as restaurants are not allowed to have smoking on their patios. As a result, Casements is one example of a bar that doesn’t allow smoking, but the owner has still put her bar’s name on the petition opposing the legislation.
'Taking away that choice is the problem,' owner Gillian Fitzgerald said. 'We’re just drastically affecting the entire culture of bars as a third space every time we tack on these things.'
(. . .)
'The impact on my business would be direct and immediate,' Zeitgeist owner Lara Burmeister wrote in an email to SFGATE. 'My staff would be required to enforce this change rather than focus on the work that actually serves our customers and drives revenue — creating friction that affects both the employee experience and the customer relationship.'
Burnmeister said that over the past 10 days, the bar surveyed 1,577 customers and found that 89% stated they prefer allowing the ability to smoke on the patio."

The EU Council finally decided that privacy is overrated and what we really need is more government-sponsored peeping! 🙈🔍 Forget free speech, it's 2023 and Big Brother is hungry for your chats. 🍿✨

Except backdoored hardware.
Or physical surveillance at the source.
Or the combination of a spying OS and a locked-down bootloader.
Expect that to be the next big battle.

But several senators, #Democrats & some #Republicans, as well as #HumanRights groups questioned the legality of Trump’s action. They called it a *potential* [frickin obvious] #overreach of #ExecutiveAuthority in part because the #military was used for #LawEnforcement purposes [#PosseComitatusAct].
By claiming his campaign against drug cartels is an active “armed conflict”, #Trump appears to be [illegally] claiming extraordinary wartime powers to justify his action. -

#Cornyn Says #FBI Will Help Find #Texas Lawmakers Who Left State
The senator said the agency had agreed to help locate Democratic state legislators who departed to try to block a vote on congressional maps. Democrats said #FederalLawEnforcement was being misused.
By J. David Goodman and Julie Bosman
Aug. 7, 2025"Senator John Cornyn, Republican of Texas, said on Thursday that the F.B.I. had agreed to his request to help track down dozens of Democratic Texas state lawmakers who left the state to prevent a vote on a redistricting plan.
"The activation of federal agents could create a standoff between the Trump administration and state leaders in Illinois, where many of the absent #Democrats have taken refuge.
"It was not clear on Thursday morning whether federal agents had actually taken action in the case, or what role they might eventually play.
"Gov. JB Pritzker of Illinois scoffed at the idea that federal agents could be deployed against the Texas lawmakers present in his state, calling it 'a lot of grandstanding.'" 'The reality is that all that he has said is that the F.B.I. has been authorized to locate the House Democrats — nothing more,' Mr. Pritzker told reporters at the Illinois State Fair on Thursday. 'I welcome the F.B.I. coming to the state,' he added. 'But they won’t be arresting anyone because there is no federal law that prohibits those Texas House Democrats from being here.'
"Mr. Pritzker has previously said that federal law enforcement agents might be used in an attempt to #intimidate lawmakers, even if the agents did not have cause to make arrests.
"Several of the #TexasDemocrats in Illinois said that as of Thursday morning, no federal agents had been seen or reported at the lawmakers’ hotel in St. Charles, about 25 miles west of Chicago.
"The whereabouts of the Texas lawmakers are widely known, but until now at least, they had considered themselves safe from arrest because they were far from the jurisdiction of Texas law enforcement agencies.
" 'I am proud to announce that Director #KashPatel has approved my request for the F.B.I. to assist state and local law enforcement in locating runaway Texas House Democrats,' Mr. Cornyn said in a statement."In his letter on Tuesday requesting the bureau’s assistance, Mr. Cornyn argued that the Democratic lawmakers might have violated state bribery laws by accepting money from outside groups to support their efforts to prevent a vote in the Texas House on a redrawn political map.
"No criminal warrants have actually been filed against the lawmakers in Texas. The speaker of the Texas House has issued civil warrants, saying that the Democrats violated rules of attendance for that chamber,but those warrants have not been considered enforceable outside the state during previous legislative walkouts."

#DystopianTimes - The collective West decided to #censor the entire internet instead of not doing #genocide
Ricky Hale and @cemedia
Jul 30, 2025Excerpt: "Since the #OnlineSafetyAct came into effect, we've seen an awful lot of political censorship and nothing in the way of saving children. Children's lives have not been improved by this bill, but all of us have seen loss of privacy and loss of information we should be allowed to access in a #FreeSociety.
"There is a petition on the Parliament UK website to repeal the Online Safety Act that I have attempted to sign three times. I still have not received the verification email, meaning my signature has not been counted. I suspect this is deliberate and that many more than the official 427,000 people have attempted to sign.
"The government has already responded to the petition by dismissing everyone's concerns and refusing to debate this in parliament. The whole point of parliamentary petitions is to trigger parliamentary debates, but the government is no longer pretending to listen to what we want.
"The level of #overreach in the Online Safety Act is off the chart. Section 179 bans people from saying something false that could cause 'non-trivial psychological harm', potentially banning #humour and #satire. It could also ban any speech that counters a government narrative and is therefore deemed false.
"If your government decides there is no genocide and you say there is, there is nothing stopping them deeming this misinformation and banning you.
[...]
"The #MinistryOfTruth now gets to decide which online content is factual or harmful and that will always be a political decision. There is no impartial way of doing this, and aside from anything else, people in a free society are allowed to say what they want. No one needs to be protected from speech."

So, what's going on with the #GorhamSpur seems a lot like what happened with the #CMPCorridor (which #Mainers voted against). Despite public opposition, #MTA will say, "Oh, well we already bought most of the land, so we have to keep going!" The same tactic was used with the CMP corridor through the North Woods, when CMP said, "Well, we already started the project -- we plan on completing if, even if the public opposes it!"
