THE SF BUDGET AND FINANCE COMMITTEE - 2023-2024 AND 2024-2025 - HAS NO VISION, THE ABILITY TO DO A SOUND NEEDS ASSESSMENT - HAVE FAILED SAN FRANCISCO - HAVE ONLY THEMSELVES TO BLAME.







The skyline of San Francisco has drastically changed. Over 40 million square feet of commercial space is vacant. Thousands of workers laid off - technology and construction and more. Our SF streets are filthy, and drugs and needles are everywhere - crime is increasing - Cartels ruling our streets. Now artificial flowers are propped here and there - gaudy and cheap - at Union Square and elsewhere - those in charge - have lost their mind.



One can only take so much utter garbage when listening to San Francisco's Budget and Finance Committee - dealing with our impending budget for 2023 - 2025.

These long drab monologues are a nauseating and convoluted  - failed representation of the citizens of San Francisco - taxpayers.

The SF Budget and Finance committee - kicking the can down the street - trying to make sense of the dire straits facing the citizens of San Francisco - in a nonchalant manner.

All that we advocated for - fought hard for the last twenty years - has gone down the drain - into the cesspool of the SF Budget and Finance's creation.

The most impacted our infants, our children, our youth, and our Elders - those with compromised health our mentally and physically challenged.

Mayor London Breed trying to play the LGBTQ card - we have had a home where some Transvasites lived torched - and not a word from the Mayor and the SF Board of Supervisors.

San Francisco embraces all so that no one lives in fear - and no one has to suffer for lack of sound health services, nutrition, mental care, a good job making a good salary, sound housing, safety while walking the streets of San Francisco - I have fought for all of the above and more for more than forty years.

The SF Budget and Finance Chair makes faint attempts to make things clear - when she is confused and confounded -  more as they do in Hong Kong.

We need to comprehend that our City and Couty of San Francisco embrace all - however, we have standards - and conducting any meeting - requires the Chair to be educated on issues.

Regarding Public Comment and the citizens who care - as the serious items are discussed -  a measly two minutes is provided.

As the convoluted budget and finance process progresses, public comment time is reduced to one minute. 

This nonsense must STOP - considering for the longest time - three minutes were allocated per person, and most meetings were well attended - our constituents being astute and well educated.

With over forty years of experience - listening to the deliberation - I can clearly state that the SF Board of Supervisors' representation has deteriorated for the worst in the last ten years.

Most of the Supervisors will soon be termed out - good riddance of very bad rubbish. 

The SF Supervisors much learn not to speak from both sides of their mouth - learn to be succinct - and respect and listen to the constituents of San Francisco - when public comment is given.

It is disgusting to see the SF Supervisors are busy having side talks - disrespecting the constituents - when meaningful public comment is given.

No standards - manners, no etiquette - not educated on issues - and a disgrace to the human race.

The SF Budget and Finance Committee must represent the citizens of San Francisco - and we, the constituents and citizens - demand meaningful representation, the diatribe of sorts - we witness - today.

San Franciscans should be proud to have proven themselves in the past - addressing issues linked to our budget and related issues.

The SF citizens always put forward astute and pertinent solutions and develop the best solutions. 

Today - most San Franciscans do not respect the Mayor of San Francisco and the SF Board of Supervisors.

These two bodies, the Executive and Legislative branches, have failed the tax-paying citizens of San Francisco - and the time has come for drastic change.

As I have predicted, most of these SF Supervisors will be held accountable now and when those who are termed out - soon.

When our infants, our children, our youth, our Elders, and those with compromised health - more mentally challenged and physically are put in dire straits - we must unite - and remedy the situation.

San Francisco has always been known for its empathy - there is a big difference between the SF Mayor and SF BOS displaying shallow compassion and genuine empathy.

We must not allow lifestyle issues to impede harmony and not allow divisiveness of the worst order - to tarnish the good name of San Francisco.

San Franciscans have a stellar track record - embracing all nationalities and all lifestyles - providing those in dire straits the best help - and wrap-around services. 

Those who have been given opportunities to hold high positions - must take the responsibility they exercise - seriously and serve. 

We, the taxpayers of San Francisco -  will not tolerate dereliction of duty - we see this again and again - at the SF Treasurer's Office, the SF Controller Officer, and the Office of the City Administrator.

The Mayor's Office Room 200,  the SF Police Department, the SF Public Utilities Commission, the SF Department of Public Works, the SF Department of Building Inspection, the SF Planning Department - and more. 

Lack of standards, corruption of the worst kind - should not be the norm in San Francisco - I have empirical data - to prove what I am writing about -  the downfall of Harlan Kelly - he is indicted and in court today - and the Mayor and SF BOS is not only aware of this fact - most of you - complicit.






After World War II, the best minds met in San Francisco to draft and create the United Nations. The world was in turmoil - and San Francisco took the lead and did well.

The United Nations Charter was signed at the War Memorial on Van Ness Street in San Francisco near SF City Hall.

The United Nations Plaza was created - as time passed, the United Nations Plaza was unattended - unkempt - drug dealers given free rein. 

Today the Chinese - other thugs are allowed to use the area to sell their wares - food, household goods, and other stuff given away by charities - they created a large market at the United Nations Plaza.

Whilie conducting selling the good illegally - these same Chinese come to City Hall and gripe over our streets being unsafe while they are side by side - the mules who work for the cartels selling drugs. The indigent Chinese selling their wares - all the time not knowing they are break the laws of our City and County of San Francisco.

The Fentanyl is coming from China - we know this - but most Chinese in San Francisc avoid talking about China and the thousands of Americans dying from Fentanyl - these double standards must stop. Public comment is about speaking truth to power. Those speaking have not read our Constitution and more are only interested in making money - by any means neccessary.





The entire SF United Nations Plaza is filthy, with open drug dealing and crime in the open - for all the world to see.

We must be cognizant that Communist China is targeting San Francisco and our Nation, dumping Fentanyl and other dangerous drugs through the Cartels with whom they work hand in hand.

Thousands of Americans are dying - and here in San Francisco - our Mayor, London Breed, and our SF Board of Supervisors - have yet to have an emergency meeting - to address the situation with viable and sustainable solutions.

The repercussions linked to drug wheeling and cartel dealing have brought the City of San Francisco - to its knees.

The fentanyl precursors come from Communist China and India - the U.S. Department of Justice - has arrested four Chinese entities - for mailing these Fentanyl precursors to Mexico.

Supplying - the Cartels with equipment to make thousands of pills - in all sorts of pastel colors - and moving the Fentanyl - underground - across the border - via the Southern Border and there is more.



Mayor London Breed - she talks too much.


Today we have Mayor London Breed - talking trash and intimidating those that speak truth to power. She should spend more time at her office - and less time surrounded by lackeys - trying to convince us that the ship is NOT sinking.

The Media has been spot on - for the first time - the journalists have chosen to be sound investigative reporters. 

Kudos to you, journalists - shed more light on these scumbags - that focus on filling their campaign coffers and speak from both sides of their filthy - mouths - corrupt politicians.

Politicians, in considerable measure, are scum bags - more those that purport to be followers of the Democratic Party - created by President Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren - racist assholes.

The Democratic Party was founded on January 8, 1828.

Today we have Nancy Pelosi, Diane Feinstein, Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, and others - who have yet to learn from the blatant mistakes - failing to adhere to standards and with intent working against the taxpayers.

That is not to say the Republicans are better - but it is a fact many Blacks once belonged to the Republican Party. The Republican Party changed its colors like a chameleon. Black leaders then had a choice of the frying pan or the fire.

The Democratic Party is a MACHINE - weak in the knees - as you can witness with President Joe Biden and his side-kick Kamala Harris.




The SF Police Chief  Scott Williams and Mayor of San Francisco - London Breed - their policies have failed miserably.


Every law-abiding citizen can speak truth to power - and must.

Unlike - politicians who take bribes, are charged by the SF Ethics Commission, dips into Baby Proposition C - passed by the constituents of  San Francisco.

A sordid person who says one thing and does another.




The French Restaurant incident comes to mind - but more the trash she speaks - representing the hood.

It is true that our streets are filthy and that drugs are everywhere.

That - Fentanyl kills thousands - is readily available in San Francisco.

That - quality of life issues - have yet to be addressed, and solutions found by the Legislative Branch and the Executive Branch of the City and County of San Francisco.

That the City Administrator Carmen Chu - is just a gadfly on the wall - with no clout - the last SF City Administrator who was independent and had clout was Mr. Bill Lee - I know him well.






Covid-19 opened the doors for all the crooks in the City and County of San Francisco - to use federal stimulus money - illegally. Those who committed the crimes know who they are - and all this and more has caused the present dire straits situation we are facing on many levels.


The SF Budget and Finance committee needs to learn about the millions wasted and how it has directly impacted the General Fund.

We, the people, took it upon ourselves to put some Propositions on the Ballot and won the Propositions - one of them the Baby C Proposition - that passed. 

The Baby C Proposition was taken to Court - delayed the implementation - we had patience - we won.

After Baby Proposition was implemented for a year - all the baseline issues were implemented.

The curricula for early childhood learning, salaries for those caring for our children, and State and Local standards were established.

Advocates and educators established nutrition and other viable and sustaining needs to best suit our infants, children of color, and others. 

I watched the progress and was proud of our advocates and constituents who love our City and County of San Francisco.

Educators, State, and Local compliance experts put strict vetted protocols in place at all the early and other children's centers.

Those who cared for our infants and children - had their salaries taken care of.

We saw a drastic change in the quality of service and dedication to our vulnerable population of color - many women and men working two and three jobs to survive.

For the first time in years, we witnessed parents saying they were blessed that their infants, children, and the parents themselves were taken care of - a very holistic approach to childcare and education that matters.

All - those who fought so hard - and realized they could breathe a sigh of relief - here come Mayor London Breed and deeps into Baby C Proposition - to use the funds for something else.

This one act - dipping into the Baby C Proposition - says a lot about Mayor London Breed. 

I remember well many of the Propositions we, the people were for - the Mayor London Breed was against. 

Then when we won - London Breed was the first one in line - to spend the money - as if she had a lot to do with the propositions - that the citizens of San Francisco fought and won.






Sean Elsbernd represents the MACHINE -  and knows that he could have done better - but does the bidding of Diane Feinstein - who suffers from acute dementia - and must step down. And while we are on the topic - Nancy Pelosi - the one who made the trip to Taiwan - muddying the waters - must step down too.


We have the current SF Budget and Finance Committee fumbling the ball - today - June 28, 2023 - there will be deliberations - we, the people, must stand up and represent - speak truth to power.

We must not permit the buffoons to do as they please. The people united will never, ever be defeated. 








The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation, with no clout at the International Level and some partners with autocratic governments, will be invited to San Francisco.

President Xi Jinping will be attending, according to reliable sources.

Russia will not send Vladimir Putin - if he lands in San Francisco - he will go to jail.  

If Donald Trump is on vacation - behind the wall - they two can have a good time - three free meals - and golden showers thrown in for better measure. 

The utter nonsense and corruption have taken a very heavy toll on San Francisco - the Assessor's Office knows this, the SF Treasure's Office knows this, the City Administrator knows this, the SF Controller knows this -  we advocates know who the crooks are - and we also know that only the Federal Bureau of Investigation can follow the money.


 




Turtle Island belongs to indigenous people. This child and many other children are our treasures, and we love them. This nation - Turtle Island belongs to the indigenous people - not the strangers who must learn to behave themselves and respect Mother Earth.





Our indigenous women are beautiful and robust - warriors who will stand up and represent.  Today our indigenous warriors are fighting for their rights - right given to them by the Great Spirit.




Turtle Island was created to be loved - not to be contaminated. San Francisco is unique with shell mounds all over the place - Sacred Burial grounds that our Mayor, London Breed, and the SF BOS have no clue of. We gather from time to time - and wall from Shellmound to Shellmound - and pay respects to the ancestors of the land - and all those who participate in these ceremonies - know the experience and know right from wrong.




We went to Standing Rock and spent time at Camp Oceti Sankowin. We thank the thousands who stood shoulder to shoulder. We admire the tenacity and fortitude of Jenni Monet and others like her - for taking a stand and even spending time incarcerated - the Great Spirit sees it all.


Standing Rock - the unity shown was second to none - it is five years now - and we are still monitoring the situation - we have the tenacity and fortitude and we have the Great Spirit watching:

Time is on our side - once the land was pristine - you could predict the seasons - no more. Time is running out - but those Greedy - have no clue that more methane spews into the air from thermaforst. In California the Salmon are diminishing - at last count some eighty salmon was counted in the Tuoloume River. The Klamath is doing better some dams removed. The Greedy have no clue about the Salmon and the indigenous - and it is too late to site down and make anyone understand whose heart in not in the right place.




Our Elders have the wisdom - more and more indigenous children, youth, young adults - all indigenous tribes - are learning more and can combine indigenous wisdom and contemporary digital learning and platforms and other models. We can communicate with each other - uplifting one another. Indigenous women and men today have ability and the capacity to unite and educate - as to what is right and what is wrong. In the past Chief Sitting Bull, Geronimo, Chief Joseph - others - did what they could and left their legacy. Today, any child, any young person, anyone that the Great Spirit love - can defend indigenous values - love one another - love Mother Earth - and do not be afraid of anyone person - your heart in the right place. Aho. 







Indigenous people are here to stay - stand tall and represent:
