“We saw people defecating on the street. We saw people using heroin. We saw people smoking crack cocaine. The city is not vibrant anymore. It’s really collapsed because of leftist policies, and these policies have caused people to flee this area. They don’t prosecute criminals like they do in most parts of the country, and the wreckage is really sad to see.” — Florida Governor Ron DeSantis visiting to San Francisco, June 20, 2023
“It’s time the reign of criminals who are destroying our city come to an end. And it comes to an end when we take the steps to more aggressive with law enforcement: more aggressive with the changes in our policies and less tolerant of all the bulls–t that has destroyed our city.” — San Francisco Mayor London Breed, December 2021
Almost DailyBrett never thought he would see the day, when Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and San Francisco Mayor London Breed are singing in two-part harmony.
California Governor Gavin Newsom is running his fledgling presidential campaign targeting Ron DeSantis. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is taking direct aim against Gavin Newsom. It’s not a fair fight.
Newsom is throwing rocks from his Golden State glass house. There were days when California was admired, a Great State with a Great Governor. Those days are gone, long gone.
And now he wants to do the same for America.
Today’s partisan media elites engage in selective reporting glorifying or ignoring the antics in Blue States (i.e., California and New York) and denigrating and trashing the Red States (i.e., Texas and Florida). The problem that cannot be solved in the citadels of infinite wisdom (Manhattan and the Beltway) is how do you happily spin homeless havens, empty shopping malls and riot prone Oakland and Portland?
Leadership Matters
“The dividing line in America is no longer between right or left. The choice is between normal or crazy.” — Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders delivering the Republican response to the State of the Union, February 7, 2023
“Leadership matters. Cities like San Francisco that have embraced leftist policies have destroyed the quality of life of their citizens and sparked an exodus of productive people to greener pastures. We need to restore sanity across this country.” — Florida Governor and Presidential Candidate Ron DeSantis
California is a one-party state. There is zero loyal opposition. When power corrupts in Sacramento, it corrupts absolutely. The results are predictable. There is no one to tap the brakes as California slams into the wall with an absence of skid marks.
San Francisco is the poster child of everything that has gone wrong in the Golden State.
When a leading presidential candidate, the governor of the third largest state makes a campaign trip to the largest state to speak the truth, and everything he sees and says is 100 accurate. San Francisco is a hot mess.
Can it be solved?
Mayor Breed knows the truth. Can she stop the bovine excrement that has destroyed the city as she describes it? Let’s hope so.
