INDIGENOUS PEOPLE PRACTICED DEMOCRACY FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS - THEN CAME THE WHITES AND LEARNED SOME FROM THE SIX NATIONS - THE IROQUOIS TRIBE - HERE ON TURTLE ISLAND.






Ancient navigators called our land Turtle Island -  then came the Whites and screwed things up - to this day, they take more and keep as little as possible for others - GREED.


The Six Nations and the Long Cabin - did the Native Americans contribute to Democracy and Peace among human beings here on Turtle Island - and is Democracy as we know - it in dire straits today, and if so, why?


https://www.pbs.org/native-america/blogs/native-voices/how-the-iroquois-great-law-of-peace-shaped-us-democracy/



Indigenous tribes on Turtle Island practiced Democracy for thousands of years.

The Six Nations - the Iroquois tribe- the United States Founding Fathers - invited the Elders to the White House and learned some from the wisdom shared.  

The indigenous inhabited Turtle Island for over 23,000 years.

Today the notion that America practices. Democracy is a misnomer - what we practice is confusion, pandemonium, violence, hate, and a slew of issues more harmful than good.

One-third of the American population are fanatics - our population is about 350 million.

The United States has an area of 3,717,812.8 square miles - we have considerable resources, and these gifts were gifted by the Great Spirit to indigenous people.

China has a population of 2 billion, and India of 1.5 billion - there are many other nations - with large populations - and increasingly, all over the world, we see autocratic governments.

Autocratic governments are destroying freedom - these despots - blood on their hands - are chronic control freaks.

These despots become disillusioned - and before you know it - they kill all those they imagine will come their way. 

Ultimately, they will fall on their face - and die a miserable - death.

Here in San Francisco and the Bay Area - the Muwekma Ohlone continues to survive - stall tall and represent. Read more:

It is amazing how Whites could come uninvited to a land where the indigenous lived for over 23,000 years. 

Today the Muwekma Ohlone must prove that they indeed lived in and around San Francisco - to prove that they had to provide Baptismal certificates and other White mens' ploys and shenanigans to prove the had continuity and live as a tribe.

The Federal Recognition process - conducted by the United States Department of the Interior is a farce and fake - too many loopholes.

Today the Department of the Interior has been show proof - DNA technology - and still the Secretary of Interior - Debbie Harland - has severe problems - comprehending a fact - that the Muwekma lived in the Bay Area and San Francisco - for thousands of years:


https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/12/science/muwekma-ohlone-tribe-california-dna.html





Two autocrats who are out to destroy the freedom we enjoy.
In the United States, we take our freedom for granted - there is freedom and license - abuse of freedom is license. 



Today in the United States, we have the Democratic Party that is confused, and the Republican Party - the majority fanatics - the Independents - sitting on the fence waiting to jump on the green side.





I ask Xi Jinping to treat the Uyghurs with respect. Just because they are Muslim does not mean they are not human beings. Raping the women, torturing Uyghur men - demeaning humanity and pretending to help African nations - for profit.



Xi Jinping is not to be trusted, not with his track record, treating the Uyghurs with disdain.

His track record with the current economy of China is spiraling down - into the cesspool of  Xi Jingping's creation.

China's Real Estate is in deep trouble; college students and young adults - have no work - food security is rampant - China is stalling, and soon - it will be in dire straits. 

As for Vladamir Putin - he is the worst - one has just to monitor his actions in Ukraine. 

Putin is desperate now - failing to commit to providing food security to the Middle East and Africa - committing to the United Nations - and then failing to keep his promise.





This man is the devil himself.


On January 6, 2021 - our Capitol in Washington D.C.  was attacked.

The Constitution clearly states that if traitors impede any process linked to our freedom and counting the Electoral Votes, inhibiting such actions is criminal, and traitors must be hung.

Capitol Hill was attacked - those who entered Capitol Hill - were violent - calling out, "hang Mike Pence," the Vice President - kill Speaker Nancy Pelosi - these fanatics urinated, defecated - came armed, and created - a pandemonium of the worst order. 

The desecration of Capitol Hill must not be taken lightly - the faces of these traitors must be posted on large Bill Boards - to shame them and those that brought up such monsters.

All these actions were aimed at stopping a sound process, part of our Election process - and all these criminals and fanatics - impeding the process - are traitors.

It is a shame that we spend billions - having two impeachments linked to DT - then this long, prolonged drab - January 6, 2021 hearings.

Two pandemics are raging. One is the Covid - the other is these long-drawn impeachment hearings - before that, two failed - impeachments.

Our Supreme Court has failed us, betraying the women - Roe vs. Wade.

When we disrespect women - more poor women who cannot take care of their bodies - in safety and hygienic conditions -  those macho men who think - they can speak for women - are wrong - just ask your mama.

Our Courts and Governor seats all over the United States are stacked with " Election deniers " - fanatics - who are determined to destroy our freedom.

Today in New Mexico and some other places - armed fanatics - watch innocent Americans who have come to vote - threatening them as they enter to cast their ballots - those monitoring the voting booths are threatened - and most of them are Republicans - election deniers.





President Franklin D. Roosevelt - the author and leader 
who created Social Security help to so many - fixed income.





President Franklin D. Roosevelt had polio - despite this
challenge - he was a fearless leader -with a clear vision -
his tenacity and fortitude - second to none.






President Dwight D.  Eisenhower - a General who 
served in the United Army army he had - wisdom. 


I have friends worldwide - today, America is the laughingstock of the world - fanatics and their sordid behavior that is totally uncalled for.

The behavior of those who cannot think for themselves - has cast a dark cloud all over the United States.

Americans - need strong leaders like past U.S. Presidents - Dwight D. Eisenhower and Franklin D. Roosevelt.





We would be remiss not to mention and honor  President Abraham Lincoln - who listened to Frederick Douglass - and allowed Blacks to fight for the Union - and this bold agreement - when executed, brought victory to the Union - freed the slaves - and changed the equation of the times.





Frederick Douglass - a slave who taught himself to read -
an orator, a wise leader - he befriends President Lincoln - Frederick Douglass - called upon President Lincoln to join the Civil War - which helped President Lincoln - win the Civil war.



The current mid-term primary election will be recorded by history - as one of the most convoluted - with gerrymandering, lies, and threats - all created with intent - to take over the House - Nancy Pelosi will be no more.

Suffice it to say - even now, the House Speaker - gets minimal support - when she is here in San Francisco. It is a shame - her husband, Paul Pelosi - was attacked in his own home. 



If this happens, we know it will happen - because the Democrats failed to address the pertinent and salient issues - food security, our economy, crime, and Quality of Life issues.

Twitter will now be used to fuel the fire - Musk is not a sane person - he is a fanatic - did you see him enter the Twitter Building - with a sink in his hands?

This sordid man made millions contracting with NASA - using talent that we have in abundance here in the United States - rockets that could be reused - rockets that went up - and then landed back on Earth - again and again on platforms - built on our Ocean. 

Can you imagine Donald Trump - after the elections - using his autocratic stances to destroy our freedom?

Good leaders know how to nip any nonsense in the bud.

More and more - fanatics are taking power into their hands - breaking the laws.

The Constitution - lays down the rules - but we take no note of the rules and regulations.

We pamper the fanatics by treating them in the Courts and have long drawn our impeachment hearings.

We have taken Russia before the General United Nations Assembly in the United Nations.

Most of the world Nations, including the United Nations - condemned Russia.

Russia laughs and brushes the Resolutions that are not binding.

Russia uses its Veto power - as one of the Five Nations that can use it.

Such are the distractions of our times - we must do away with antiquated norms and determinations - that do not meet today's standards and criteria.

We know who started World War I and II - is it difficult to predict who will start World War III?

When will we consult those that have wisdom - the indigenous people?

Have you heard of civilizations that talk the talk but cannot walk?

So far, indigenous nations have sounded all that is right - Climate Change, love not to hate, uplifting one another, listening more, and talking less. Taking less and leaving more for the future.

Spirituality - fine-tuning one conscience  - stop the dogma and religion with more rules and regulations - with no good actions in sight.

Listen to the indigenous people - they have the wisdom - and those who have it all right - with their heart in the place - can lead us to a better place. Aho.

OUR PROPOSED HOUSING ELEMENT IS FULL OF LOOPHOLES - FOR DECADES MARKET PRICE UNITS WERE FAVORED - THIS IS MUWEKMA OHLONE LAND - STOLEN - NOW, WHEN IT COMES TO HELPING THE WORKING POOR - WE HAVE NO SOLUTION - ONLY HOT AIR!

 




For starters, we have twenty-seven million square feet of prime commercial space empty - does this say something? We have sixty-one thousand homes vacant? Over eighty thousand families have left San Francisco.



At this late date, the San Francisco Planning Department is pulling its hair and teeth to find a solution to the mess they have created all these years.

For decades the SF Planners and the SF Planning Commission - have been pulling the wool over our eyes - in broad daylight. Today, have no clue - failing to serve the working poor - all these many decades.

Good planning is not only about building homes for those making under $80,000 - but also making a needs assessment about our clean drinking water.

Here in San Francisco, clean drinking water - coming from the Hetch Hetchy - one hundred and sixty miles away - is used for flushing toilets. 

The idiots at the SF Public Utilities Commission - as is the SF Planning Department - do not know how to deal with this dilemma.

The Housing Element is implemented - every eight years with a viable and sustainable vision. The SF Planning Department has failed us decent, hard-working taxpayers - San Franciscans.

This year's draft Housing Element - soon to be finalized - is full of loopholes, and as usual, the working poor - are left to fend for themselves.


Check out the October 2022 release - SF Housing Element:

This article highlights technology - genomic analysis - uses DNA to show continuity between the present members of the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe - and the ancestors - to did their best to stay alive:

https://news.stanford.edu/2022/03/21/genomic-analysis-supports-ancient-muwekma-ohlone-connection/


Let us learn more about the Clovis people - and indigenous tribes - the convoluted ways of the strangers - and that the indigenous were here for over 23,000 years - carbon dated and more:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxAiPVHlbBk


We took a van and went to Standing Rock to stand with the Lakota Nation and other indigenous tribes - over 20,000 gathered from all over the world - we can say we stood shoulder to shoulder - fought hard to shut the North Dakota Pipeline and more:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=dyzzEnRR8f8 


The time has come to rise up - the indigenous - included as active participants - with an understanding - that speaks of cultural competency - ignorance set aside - Rise up - Stand tall and represent:

San Francisco and the surrounding area are lands that were stolen. The thieves believe that all is well with this crime. It is just a matter of time - before those vile, evil, and despicable - will fall on their face. No one can fool - all the people - all the time.

www.muwekma.org


It is a crying shame that the City and County have no clue who are the true indigenous tribal people - should be acknowledged - how about a tribe that can speak the indigenous languages and acknowledges their Tribe - the Muwekma Ohlone:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFGJxa2zLlI


When Amit Ghosh was the Director of SF Planning - we reviewed the then SF General Plan - and made sure the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe was acknowledged and noted - as the only Tribe Federally recognized - and one that has established continuity - in and around San Francisco. 

A tribe acknowledged - by the Department of Interior - an entity that has jurisdiction over all matters linked to acknowledgment and Federal Recognition.

We also brought to the attention of the Direction Amit Ghosh - the mistakes made by a Bureau of Indian Affairs - L.A. Dorrington.

Today using DNA analysis - the Muwekma Ohlone - is well armed and can clearly show - the continuity of the Tribe - from DNA testing - specimens taken from living members and compared to the DNA taken from burial sites.

It is pathetic how Whites will stoop so low - to make the Tribes prove that they are human, indigenous - and that this is their land.

Whites came here to San Francisco some three hundred years - and now want to say they lived here for 23,000 years - carbon-dated artifacts and human remains - proven and noted - which should rest the case of the Muwekma Ohlone. 


Here is one archeological case:

http://www.d8crt.org/site/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/CA-SCL-895-Final-Report-min.pdf


There are many other cases that the thieves do not want to acknowledge  - empirical data - one recent case involving the Univesity of Chicago and Standford University - revealed recently - verifying and linking the DNA with living Muwekma to their ancestors - technology coming to the rescue - and baffling the minds of those that want to remain arrogant and ignorant.






The Muwekma Ohlone have been commended by the SF Board of Supervisors - not long ago - by SF Supervisors Eric L. Mar and David Campos. Former Chairperson Rosemary holds the commendation - Charlene Nijmeh, far right - the current Chairperson. 



This is Turtle Island





Ohlone land envisioned by an artist.





Muwekma Ohlone 





Secretary of Interior Debbie Harland can help!


The empirical data is there for all the world to see - DNA proof - the abject mistakes made by the Department of Interior - the University of Chicago, and Standford - have put their minds and can prove the Muwekma Ohlone - has the facts to prove their case.

Simply put, no entity or body can unacknowledge any tribe once acknowledged.

That is what is being pushed by the Department of Interior - and that is a crying shame.

Tribes and indigenous people all over the world - have been taken advantage of. 

There are legal bodies that can step up - more and more as years go by -  we are noticing the Supreme Court is pandering to vested interests.

In San Francisco, the politicians would not like the Muwekma Ohlone to be recognized - that would jeopardize their vested interest - it is all about money.

Truth is told - all of San Franciso is stolen land - the thieves can talk all they want - those that are evil will fall - flat of their faces. Aho.

Check out the October 2022 - SF Housing Element:

https://www.sfhousingelement.org/

  Here is a video of the Chair of SF Planning trying to explain capacity building, affordable housing, and racial equity; she seems to be all over the place - simply called confused and convoluted:

Genomic Analysis used to show continuity between current members of the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe and the ancestors - who tried their best to stay alive :


https://news.stanford.edu/2022/03/21/genomic-analysis-supports-ancient-muwekma-ohlone-connection/


Be educated on issues - do not trust those that speak with a forked tongue.

Only those whose hearts are in the right place - can take others - to a better place.


Here is a documentary - short but to the point - for those who think the indigenous have to be ignored when the opposite is true. Learn about the thieves and manifest destiny - learn how the salmon once thrived - learn more - who had the wisdom and the spirituality:

We left San Francisco in a van and went to stand - shoulder to should with the Lakota Nations and thousands of others - near Standing Rock - Camp Oceti Sakowin - we will never forget - today we are victorious - the North Dakota Pipeline is shut down - the Great Spirit sees it all:

LIFE IS FOR THE LIVING - NOT THE LIVING DEAD. 75 YEARS AGO - AT 1 AM IN THE MORNING - MY MOTHER ALICE - GAVE BIRTH TO A BOY - THAT BOY WAS ME - I WAS BORN IN NAIROBI, KENYA - TODAY I LIVE IN SAN FRANCISCO.

 




Francisco Da Costa, age three years
 (circa 1950).


Seventy-five years ago - on October 27, my mother gave birth to a boy - that boy was me. Francisco Da Costa. 

At the age of two, I contacted Poliomelytis, and the entire left side of my body was paralyzed.

I overcame the paralysis - my Kikuya nanny massaging me - and others, too many to name - loving me as best they could.

As a child, I excelled in sports - soccer, field hockey, cricket, volleyball, and other games.

My father and mother did their best to introduce me to people - who loved me because I loved to sing, act, and ask many questions.

During my youth, I never allowed my physical challenge to slow me down - I excelled in what I did - working very hard - at everything that came my way.




I have hundreds of photographs, mostly black and white - here is one of my mother, Alice, my father, Manuel - my sister Dora and of course, the man of the hour - Francisco.


Nairobi, Kenya, is located at 5800 feet - above sea level - and has a cool climate. I remember the rain - and I loved going in the rain - and enjoying myself.

I remember the garden we had - the rich soil - the large cabbage roses my mother tendered - many other flowers - one of a kind.

Then there were vegetables - and fruits like guava, grapes, loquats, pomegranates, and the birds that loved to come and help themselves.

I would spend time in the garden - climb a tree - I love climbing trees and sitting there and pondering - telling myself what I wanted to become - and I love to remember those memories - to this day.

I was introduced to archeology and the sciences.

 Early on, I met and spent time with the famous Louis and Mary Leakey - who found Lucy - for those that follow anthropology and archeology. East Africa is the home of humankind.

To this day, I am deep into archelogy that led me to follow - the San Francisco - Muwekma Ohlone tribe and other indigenous tribes. 



Here I am with some youth - when I lived in Nuremberg, Germany.


Blessed to have traveled all over the world - I have seen things for myself - and can do a quick needs assessment - of what is happening worldwide.

My blog - this blog that you are reading - covers many issues - on the local, state, federal, and world that we all live in.

Primarily addressing Quality of Life issues.



My grandfather - Nascimento Trinidad. 

 

My grandfather went to South Africa and, as you can see, fought and won some medals.

I am proud of my grandfather and bear his name as my middle name.

As most of you crooks know - I am a fighter - I am not afraid of those that steal and fleece the poor.

I think I get most of it from my grandfather - I have some old photographs of my grandfather - but I worked on this one to showcase how he carried himself.



After the October 17, 1989 earthquake - I was presented the Commander's Award - for serving the people of San Francisco - by General Harrison.





When I visited Melbourne, Australia - with my sisters.





Francisco Da Costa - Director of Environmental Justice Advocacy.



Thank you all - who sent me good wishes - today, the day of my birth.

Many of you see me during Public Comments - and have no clue - about me. This small write-up is for you - who always asks me questions - where am I from? What do I do for a living? Who will stand up for the poor - and uplift them? Why have we to bear and deal with all the abject corruption? Now you know - some.





I spent quality time at the San Francisco - Presidio of San Francisco.

Worked for the Sixth United States Army and Presidio of San Francisco. 

I was the Congressional Liaison for Sixth United States Army and served the twelve Western States.

I also worked for the Department of Interior - and created the Infrastructure Group, the Maintenace and Technical Support Group, and the Real Estate and Property Management Group.




My love for the Department of Defense is right on.


In 1989 during the Big Earthquake - I was given a commendation for my work during the Earthquake. A Commander's Award. 

On my retirement, I was given several commendations - every commendation given to me by the Department of Defence is dear to me.

Today we live in the United States, where over thirty percent of the voting population does not believe in " Democracy. " 

Here is San Francisco - corruption has reached a saturation point.

Even as I write these lines - the Federal Bureau of Investigation - is busy gathering information - most Blacks who are deep into illegal activity - which is embedded at City Hall and Room 200.

We must be spiritual, which means we must fine-tune our conscience.

Religions and dogma are not what makes a good woman or man.

Good actions do - most of us are hoodwinked by poverty-pimp pastors - mostly Blacks in San Francisco. It does not help that most of the crooks are Black too - and are shameless.

In the interim, our infants, our children, our youth, our young adults - our beloved Elders - more our mentally and physically challenged - are slowly dying.

We have the Living and the Living Dead.

Only those who have their heart in the right place - can take others to a better place. Aho.

MILLIONS OF DOLLARS - STIMULUS MONEY WASTED BY THE SF MAYOR'S OFFICE - THE MAYOR HERSELF PART OF THE PLOYS, MACHINATIONS, AND SHENENIGANS.

 




WE ARE WATCHING YOU SCOUNDRELS LIKE A HAWK.


All over the City and County of San Francisco - Quality of Life issues has reached an all-time low.

Contributing adverse factors that the City cannot address - are drugs, filthy streets, car, and home break-ins, assaults, shootings and killings, rapes, domestic violence, and more.

In the meantime, San Franciscans have not recovered from the atrocities committed by the San Francisco Redistricting Task Force.

The new lines are drawn to create the new boundaries - the eleven districts are worse off than before. 

The SF Redistricting task force sold out decent San Franciscans - and most of us taxpayers have no clue - about the many adverse impacts.

The adverse impacts are now affecting the Housing Element - there has been no meaningful outreach and no dialogue worth the salt - linked to the current Housing Element.

San Franciscans are astute, and we have many who are educated on issues. The City and County of San Francisco - Department must head - many of whom are inept - do their job - we taxpayers pay them, and they have been having a ball - pussyfooting around.

It is not easy to hoodwink the educated, decent, ethical San Franciscans - but more and more, the politicians who have sold their souls to the devil - think they cannot fool us all.

No one can fool all the people all the time.

One of the worse City Departments is the San Francisco Planning.

These scoundrels - most chosen because of their lifestyle - continue to fail us - most of all having disdain for the working poor.

Every issue that comes before the SF Planning is a circus - they talk and talk and talk - and come to a - conducive solution.

When it comes to Public Comment - SF Planning gives us a measly two minutes - they think we, the people, will tolerate - this nonsense forever - and look the other way.

It is the same with the SF Board of Supervisors - too much talking - addressing silly, mundane issues - while the people suffer - from the spiraling of the economy - adverse impacts linked to Quality of Life issues in San Francisco - the 11 Districts.


THE REVOLUTION IS HERE - THE PEOPLE UNITED CAN NOT BE DEFEATED - THE SCOUNDRELS WILL BE DEALT - AND THE STATE OF AFFAIRS WILL NOT BE PRETTY.




These steps lead to the dens of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors and the Mayor London Breed - she lacks sound leadership, is not educated on issues, and does not have a sound vision worth the salt.


Many homeless people live on the streets throughout the City and County of San Francisco.

All over the City of San Francisco - the various locations they live in tents - stink to high heaven.

Feces, urine, needles, the filth of the worse kind - that we decent San Franciscans - never, ever saw before - but have to endure in your face - defiance.

The Urban Alchemy ploys are not working - the so-called practitioners are selling drugs - their CEO making 220,000 a year.

Most of those who work for Urban Alchemy are hardened and corrupt " jailbirds " - the SF Mayor has an affinity for jailbirds - more those who are hard-core.

Again and again, The SF Mayor favors having in-operation - drug centers - where folks can do their hard drugs.

She thinks she can solve some problems - she has no clue about such talk and plans - which exacerbates the drug and needle situation.

The SF Planning - jumped on the suggestion that the Emergency declared in the SF Tenderloin - would do some good.

The SF Planning has taken the first steps - the outreach has yet to be done - involving the diverse leaders - to bring leaders from the diverse population to the table.

A Tenderloin is a place that does have good leaders.

The leaders from the Tenderloin - have taken it upon themselves to lead and deliver - without the City and County lifting a finger to help them.

For decades failed to invest in the Tenderloin -  the many decent folks from the Tenderloin that live in dire straits. 

Over 30,000 souls live in the SF Tenderloin - over fifty percent are refugees worldwide.

Add to that the indigent who are cast out from their district in San Francisco - mainly Blacks from the Bayview Hunters Point area and the Western Addition.

In 1989 we had the big one - the Earthquake - the things I saw happen in the Tenderloin - shocked many - I had to take the lead with soldiers from the Sixth U.S. Army and the Presidio of San Francisco.

Together before the Red Cross came to the aid of the people in the Tenderloin - after two whole weeks.

We had to help and feed the poor and indigent - more those trapped in the rooms -  elevators not working - the many Single Residency Occupancy (SROs) - creating dangerous situations - many people nearly lost their lives.

At that time, NO - Office of Emergency Services - was in place - in the City and County of San Francisco.

Mayor Art Agnos - asked for help from the Sixth U.S. Army and Presidio of San Francisco - and the Army did a good job.

Elevators would not work, and food and other amenities had to be delivered to save lives in the Tenderloin.

In the SF Marina, the soldiers did all they could - fighting fires and rescuing folks from buildings that came down - due to the liquefaction of the earth.

Hydrants would not work - water was pumped from the Bay - and the City and County had NO - rescue and emergency plans.

Our soldiers and volunteers climbing the narrow stairs - took care of the situation - and were all commended and remembered to this day.

The United States - Corps of Engineers came to our rescue and were honored and commended.

Sixth U.S. Army and Presidio of San Francisco soldiers, the Army provided resources - and we tried our best to uplift that most needed help.

Today the Tenderloin has some advocates - however, to understand the Tenderloin today - we must fully comprehend what happened in the past. Hen the history of what happened during the 1989 Earthquake.

The former Mayors Art Agnos, Diane Feinsten, Willie L Brown, Gavin Newsom, Edwin Mah Lee,  Mark Farrell, and now the worse of them all - Mayor London Brown - know only so much - and still have not taken the required precautions - to help the working poor in the Tenderloin. 

The various SF City Departments have failed San Franciscans - the Tenderloin - corruption in this City and County of San Francisco has reached saturation point.

As I said, millions of dollars were misused.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Center for Diseases Control and Prevention conducted many audits that revealed the situation was atrocious - in San Francisco - linked to the millions in Federal Stimulus funds.

The Department of Transportation and other Federal and State of California authorities - have audited the City and County of San Francisco and found the City and County of San Francisco lacking - transparency and accountability.




Banners such as you see above were seen all over the Bayview Hunters Point - Dwayne Jones, a crook - was behind this scheme -
called himself a Philanthropist and Gatekeeper - pocketed millions of dollars meant for the vulnerable SF Bayview community - that most needs urgent and dire help.




WHERE IS THE JUSTICE?




WE PROVIDED THE ABOVE SCHEME CHART TO THE SF CONTROLLER. HE GAVE IT TO THE FORMER CITY ATTORNEY DENNIS HERRERA - WHO IS NOW THE GENERAL MANAGER OF SFPUC - THE SAME ENTITY - HE WAS INVESTIGATING AND DID A LOUSY JOB - NOW MAKING $500,000 A YEAR!


The SF Sewer System and Improvement Project started with a budget of $6 billion and is now $12 billion - heading for $20 billion - and we also have these charlatans to hoodwink San Franciscans - most are decent, hardworking taxpayers in broad daylight.

It is a shame that over $300 million - 5% of  $6 Billions were wasted on mundane things and issues. All those millions - were linked to the Sewer System Improvement Project - in the San Francisco Bayview - and Community Benefits.

 Community benefits tied to San Franciscan in general and Bayview Hunters Point in particular - were thrown to the wind.

All this and more - brought before the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission - its former General Manager indicted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation - for abject - corruption.

Today nothing much has changed - in fact, it is getting worse.




Dwayne Jones and Juli   Ellis misspent millions of dollars - Community Benefits - linked to the Sewer System Improvement Project - started with a $6 billion budget and today has exceeded $12 billion. Who is monitoring this madness?






The SF Controller has failed us all - more the advocates that matter - in the City and County of San Francisco - to get assistance - any Non-Profit - should be crooked.


Millions of dollars are doled out to crooked Non-Profits - who do not spend a dollar on those who need to be uplifted.

Our infants, children, youth, young adults, beloved Elders - the mentally and physically challenged.

Millions of dollars are doled out to those who have a sordid history of hoodwinking - those who are decent, hardworking, and pay their taxes - in the community.

These crooks try to put hurdles in our way.

As an advocate - for the last 40 years - this fight is like fighting the MAFIA.

With some SF City Agencies on the side of those that work against the taxpayers, the constituents of decent San Franciscans.

The SF Controller's Office Whistle Blowers Program is a JOKE.

Today - the former SF City Attorney - is the General Manager of the SF Public Utilities Commission - the fox guarding the chicken coop.

San Francisco City Hall has failed the decent constituents and taxpayers.

Thousands of market-price condominiums - are built. Affordable housing is genuinely needed to cater to those who make under $80,000.













The time is now for a revolution - never seen in San Francisco - the recession is knocking at our doors.


Many other doors will be opened to deal with those that turned their back on the constituents of San Francisco. 

There are 61,000 vacant homes in San Francisco.

Over 80,000 families have left San Francisco - gone with the wind.

The Housing Element is being worked on and has serious issues to be dealt with. Time is running out - this Housing Element is implemented every 8 years.

How much of this trauma can we San Franciscans endure?

Enough is enough.
