Like I said, the winner of San Jose’s recent mayoral election was none other than one Carl Guardino (https://sanjosespotlight.com/where-do-san-jose-mayoral-candidates-cindy-chavez-matt-mahan-stand-on-the-environment/#comment-115371). With more than a quarter-century as a key player in the local shadow government, he has been directly and indirectly responsible for policies and legislation that have battered and beaten the working people of our city and county in so many ways (https://www.sanjoseinside.com/opinion/uber-lyft-keep-it-in-family-with-help-from-the-guardinos/; https://sanjosespotlight.com/how-san-jose-mayors-ally-helped-bloom-energy-skirt-a-natural-gas-ban/#comment-49908; https://sanjosespotlight.com/san-jose-mayor-sam-liccardo-ally-carl-guardino-bloom-energy-wrote-natural-gas-ban-exemption-to-his-benefit/#comment-83210).

That this piece reads like it was produced by Tarana, Inc’s communications department, rather than by a journalism medium, suggests it might be time for a name change for this online publication. Might I suggest “San Jose Insider?”

“It’s important to keep in mind that in some places it’s just not economically practical to deploy, given costs per mile and per household.”

Hence the mention of “public officials” earlier. It’s so obvious.

Don’t stop in part of the South Bay. The East Bay flats beckon.

“technology firm working to bridge the digital divide”

sounds like Basil is taking a page from the Musk playbook and taping into those subsidized revenues

like Elon, Mr. Alwan is no dummy, one of the best in the valley, so chances are good he will clean up

Smart play Carl
