London Breed CONtinued




America, I didn’t think we’d be back this fast. When I first wrote my original award-winning article about how Mayor London Breed was a fraud who broke many of the promises she was elected on, I talked about how over a period of time, she slowly revealed who she really was and how her comments especially over the last year or two started to show that the Mayor was on this sort of right wing pivot, and today we are going to go into more detail on that.


Mayor Breed has recently been going full steam ahead on the removal of tents and other encampments in the City after the Supreme Court decision on Grants Pass vs Johnson as well as the executive order signed by Gov. Newsom following that case. We saw the real start of her true opinions on this during the APEC conference in 2023, when the whole of SOMA and Downtown San Francisco was meticulously swept, with people losing the only home they had left and in most cases losing almost all of their belongings. She’s even been on these sweeps herself, speaking on one such occasion Breed says “When I went out with encampment teams two weeks ago, our city workers had already been there over 15 times this year, offering people shelter and cleaning the area.” She would have you believe that these actions, and the ones she's undertaken recently are good things, and that she’s cleaning up the city but the truth is she’s just shuffling people around. 


A representative from the Coalition on Homelessness, River Beck, said it best. “Right now, we’re seeing a political response to an election year.” London Breed is just shuffling people around, neighborhood to neighborhood, and most recently she’s even threatened those people, trying to force them to accept resources from the City and County of San Francisco, saying “We will bring a new reality to our streets, built on both compassion and the clear directive that San Francisco is not a place where anything goes.”


But let us be honest. London Breed is demonizing the mentally ill in our homeless communities calling them “Service Resistant” just so she can score brownie points with the moderates in her party. All of this is to gain as many votes as she can for an election, not for the betterment of the City. She does not and has never cared about the homeless, she wants to eradicate homelessness by getting rid of the people, not tackling the issue, and I hope that people don’t fall for her nonsense.
