San Francisco’s District Attorney @chesaboudin claims “Most of the residents that I speak with aren't particularly upset that there are drug sales happening” in their neighborhood.
This a gross & gigantic lie — even for a guy who lied his way into office
Boudin says, “The drug sales themselves are in many ways a symptom of a larger problem”
YES.
The larger problem is that Boudin is using a sanctuary law, designed to protect refugees, to protect the Mexican drug cartels making billions from killing 100,000 Americans a year.
“But he said he prosecutes about 85 percent of the felony drug cases the police bring to his office, a rate that has risen steadily over the past two years”
Grossly misleading. Boudin plea bargains them away. Dealers fake rehab before returning to the streets & killing more kids
Boudin is protecting dealers and leaving kids to die
The most recent was a 16 year old
She died 5 minutes away from where the city’s sinister, illegal, supervised fentanyl and meth promotional experiment is being conducted
As soon as SF Mayor @LondonBreed announced her disgusting experiment on innocent lives enslaved by their addiction, and mental illness, the dealers moved nearby, destroying UN Plaza and ruining San Francisco’s main downtown street, Market St.
Boudin called “open-air drug use & drug sales . . . victimless crimes.” When Boudin announced that he was not going to prosecute dealers, he said it was because they are “victims of human trafficking.”
Tom Wolf, a member of San Francisco’s Drug Dealing Task Force, who was once a homeless fentanyl addict himself for several months, knows several dealers. “These guys would show me pictures of the houses they were building back home in Honduras,” @Twolfrecovery told me.

Russia has leveraged an economy half the size of Germany's to end the post-Cold War era and defeat NATO
It did so with aggression, natural gas, & nuclear
America must produce massively more nuclear, natural gas, and oil, or liberal democratic Western civilization is dead
Imagine thinking that the US, Europe, and liberal Western democracies can stand up to China and Russia by becoming wholly dependent on solar panels made by the former and natural gas produced by the latter
It's civilizational suicide
Everyone's been asleep. Time to wake up.
The writing was on the wall years ago
The basic physics of renewables is why they can't work
Imagine making our high-energy capitalist civilization work on energy sources THAT LITERALLY KEPT HUMANS TRAPPED IN POVERTY FOR CENTURIES
Advocates of government-run drug use sites say they will reduce surrounding drug use, dealing, and violence, but San Francisco's experiment shows the opposite, with a homicide, OD death of 16 year-old girl, and the shooting of neighborhood ambassador occurring since its opening
Defenders of @LondonBreed say we just need to give the supervised drug use site time to work, but the open air drug dealing and drug use around the UN Plaza, where the fentanyl & meth smoking lounge is located, has only gotten worse.
"When someone is openly using drugs on the street we're going to give them the option of... treatment... But if they refuse, we're not going to allow them to continue using on the street."
People think California’s water scarcity is natural but it’s actually the result of opposition by Malthusian “environmentalists” @SierraClub @NRDC et al. who have blocked water recycling, storage, & desalination projects for decades calmatters.org/commentary/202…
Reactors could be added to our Diablo Canyon nuclear plant to desalinate gigantic quantities of water. Indeed, that was the original plan.
Instead, Gov. @GavinNewsom intends to close the plant 40 years prematurely, in 2024-25. At a time of blackouts.
It is hard to find a city in America whose residents say they care about black lives more than San Francisco. Two weeks after Donald Trump was elected president in 2016, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors affirmed in a resolution that “Black Lives Matter.”
In response to a police officer killing George Floyd in 2020, more than 1,000 San Franciscans marched under the banner of “Black Lives Matter.” And, later that same year, San Francisco Mayor London Breed promised to defund the police and spend the money saved on black lives.
People last week accused me of violating the privacy of a homeless addict named Korey, who I interviewed as he smoked fentanyl & meth
But thanks to that video, an outreach worker tracked down his sister, Keneda. She hadn't seen him for two years
I brought her to him yesterday
People rightly worry about the privacy and dignity of homeless drug addicts, but many tell me they feel invisible and *want* to share their stories. They often express gratitude afterwards.
Here's the first video with Korey that upset so many people
My critics are struggling with how to attack me. At first they said I never actually interview any homeless people, and just don't want to look at them. Then, after I shared video interviews, my critics said I was exploiting the homeless, and violating their privacy. Which is it?
“Prosecutors in Sacramento, California filed charges in the killing of a woman whose partly nude body was found hanging from a tree in a homeless encampment after she was kidnapped & raped”
