Slumming again Nancy? It doesn't appear to have outside dining as delivering food down those stairs could prove challenging.

Defund the police? No prob. Pelosi brings her own
San Francisco, Calif. — City leaders and activists are working assiduously to defund the police and lock down San Francisco businesses, but one Democratic politico didn’t get the memo for either.
Speaker Pelosi, in a follow up to her disastrous HairGate, lunched Wednesday at the Pacific Union Club, the most prestigious and exclusive band of old San Franciscans.
While many restaurants around the city close for good, her maskless meal reminds one that those in the know can still get a sit-down bite to eat in the city without much ado.
Nor have calls to eliminate the SFPD inconvenienced Ms. Pelosi. A Department of Homeland Security officer with a bomb sniffing dog walked the whole street before she went inside.
“Defund the police, it does not seem to be working quite yet,” said one Nob Hillian, who was privy to these events.
The Pacific Union, the city’s most elite social club, stands atop Nob Hill, a name that pays homage to four original neighbors, the nabobs or “nobs,” who started the Central Pacific Railroad.
The four uber wealthy white men were Leland Stanford, Collis Potter Huntington, Charles Crocker, and Mark Hopkins, whose namesake hotel stands across the street, a luxury landmark now populated with homeless drug and alcohol addicts, compliments of the city of San Francisco, which is picking up the tab for the rooms and the substances via Operation Roomkey.
Ambrose Bierce lampooned the Big Four as Happy Hunty (Huntington), Cowboy Charley (Crocker), Leland The Kid (Stanford), and minor devil Sootymug (Hopkins), who “gave up robbing stage coaches for the much greater loot of railroad operation.”
The quartet, along with many alumni of the club, have been targets of contemporary cancel culture for a list of misdeeds too long to mention. One wonders, rather than supping at the club that celebrates the Big Four, whether a lioness of liberalism like Pelosi should boycott it.
It’s not clear from the article whether her party dined inside or outdoors.
Nancy made the appointment and wanted to know WHY the Salon was closed ,LOL

apparently, she went inside. Preceded by armed security and a bomb sniffing dog...
AOC and Kamala know time always wins.

Must be her hands are clean on this, and it's the restauranteurs who are to blame. /sarc
Did she go home for ice cream after her meal?
In the 30 years that I lived there, just a block away,I never saw anyone eat outside.I looked over there everytime getting on and off the cable car and rarely saw activities outside the building.
Ambrose Bierce spent about a year overseeing the build of the Rockerville Flume.

Are you getting the idea now, protesters?
I guess I’ll have to spell it out for you-
When you march and protest, and actually force the city to “defund the police”, there will still be police.
They just won’t be YOUR police.
There is a ruling class in the USA, which was founded on the principle that there were no classes, a principle that it quickly shot to hell with slavery and jim crow, and which has never actually been put into practice.
Congress is the ruling class. It makes laws for the common herd, and doesn’t obey them. What seems like hundreds of years ago I read a book that detailed the privileges congress has given itself. I would like to find an updated version of that book.
Congress has the power to take our money or to give us money, depending on whether we vote one way or another. It has abused that power.
We threw out the monarchy, only to anoint congress as the royal family with privileges far beyond anything a normal person can hope for.
And how did nancy get so rich on a congressional salary?
Love it!
All of these mayors, governors and other pols who have been so zealous in destroying everybody else’s lives and businesses are having a good old time themselves and living high on the hog. Not that we ever thought otherwise...I haven’t noticed them turning up in public with their shaggy, grown-out undyed grey hair and or complaining about being sick of living on pizza delivered to their home every night.
Imagine this: a camera pans over the destruction, decay, and ruin of buildings in demonrat controlled cities. Followed closely with zoomed in images of pothole-laden streets with homeless sitting on the crumbling sidewalks. As the camera fades a concerned voice asks “Would you want to live here? Vote Biden/Harris 2020 and you will. Think that would be a good ad??
Another imagine: Mary Tyler Moore theme in background. Ted Baxter voice impersonator reading MSM talking points. Scenes of burnt out Mpls play, ending at her statue on looted Nicolet Mall. Lady spikes a beret at its feet.
Another reason to insist upon TERM LIMITS. Get the hell out, and live under the laws you passed.
So watch Kimberly Klacik’s ad. It pretty much is what you describe.
