YC's Garry Tan launches “Garry's List”, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting “moderate/pragmatic” political candidates and pro-growth policies in California

New operation is part-PAC, part-blog, part incubator for Silicon Valley politics — and latest entry in big-money network

    Garry Tan is launching a new dark-money group to influence California politics he wants to replicate the success of the Chesa Boudin & school board recalls of 2022 & bring that “energy” statewide the effort is also part of his aim to create “parallel media” & institutions [image]

    One of my top pieces of advice to founders is “care deeply about your customers”. Garry is a great example of this — he deeply cares about making SF and California a place for prosperity for everyone. He even built an entire publication in his spare time to do it!

    A lot of people are surprised to hear that YC partners code. Garry not only manages the content for Garry's List, he built the entire web app himself with Claude Code.

    Now announcing: Garry's List We're starting a citizen's union for radical centrism. We proved local politics is winnable in SF. Now we're building the community to do it everywhere — news, commentary, and accountability for policies that affect California and our society. [video]

    Venture capitalist @garrytan is launching a 501(c)4 organization called “Garry's List.” It is part media organization, part a fundraising organization for California politics, part social network. This is how the advocacy world works these days. The lines between media + [image]

    Been reading Garry's posts on this for a short while. They're so good if you care about San Francisco. If you care about California.

    Want to come to the Garry's List launch party? We're hosting a big, invite-only launch party on March 4 with some very special guests. If you want in, you need to apply. If you're a radical centrist like me, I would love to see you there. https://garryslist.org/apply

    If you want your local politicians to just be gd normal and stop being lapdogs for fringe interests, join Garry's List and get your normal, centrist interests represented.

    What an epic 21 days with Claude Code [image]

    p interesting from gt, i fully expect tech folks to run ca politics inside the next five years — for ex https://sfstandard.com/... maybe we'll even get wifi on caltrain??

    One of the best things about YC partner meetings these days is we've just been sharing what we're building with coding agents. Garry shared this with us a week ago. It's now shipped.
  • @garrytan Garry Tan on x
    Garry's List does three things. It tells you what's actually happening. We take the real information that's already out there — the tweets, the budget documents, the board meeting transcripts, the receipts — and turn it into sourced, readable stories in plain language. [image]

    guys that don't even understand how usb works are writing this much code with AI and you think we're in a bubble?
  • @johnloeber John Loeber on x
    Signing up for Garry's List like [image]
  • @reeyopeeyo Rya Jetha on x
    YC's @garrytan is taking his political ambitions statewide with a “Rotary Club for radical centrism.” The impetus for Garry's List, he told me yesterday, wasn't the billionaire tax but Claude Code! [image]
  • @uhshanti @uhshanti on x
    “Garry's List” lol he's so far up his own ass his head is coming out of his own mouth tesseract-style
  • @mil0theminer Milo Smith on x
    They talk about Garry like he's an 11yo learning HTML
  • @chkashifali @chkashifali on x
    The time of idea to prod has arrived. If Garry can build a product while running YC. You can do it too. I am hacking away nights and weekends to solve some internal tooling and it's the best feeling in the world.
