THE "NAKBA" WHICH MEANS CATASTROPHE - FORCED 750,000 PALESTINIANS - OUT OF ISRAEL - INTO REFUGEE CAMPS IN 1948 - TODAY THREE TIMES THAT NUMBER - PALESTINIANS - ENDURE THE SAME IN GAZA.

 



The Nakba where the Palestinians were forced to leave Israel - and have lived in refugee camps for 76 years.





The Palestinians forced to move from the North of Gaza - then forced again to move South to Rafah - are now told to move again where there are no amenities and sanitation - Palestinians starving, and dying, with no medicines, no hospitals, and their homes totally demolished by 2000 and 5000 laser beam guided bombs.



Read the convoluted history of Nakba - any way you read it - for the last 76 years - the Palestinians have been suffering, and the time has come to walk the walk - enough of the talk.


https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2017/5/23/the-nakba-did-not-start-or-end-in-1948#:~:text=What%20caused%20the%20Nakba%3F,that%20deserve%20their%20own%20state.


It is incredible how insensitive most Americans have become - brainwashed by the propaganda of the Main Media - that does not believe in sound investigative reporting.

The GENOCIDE in GAZA today - is the worst genocide - perpetuated over a longer time - in contemporary times - thousands killed and maimed - while the world is watching - and failing to have empathy - thousands of infants and children - murdered.

The NAKBA, which means catastrophe - genocide - removed 700,000 Palestinians from their homeland and forced them out of Israel - to live in refugee camps. None of those who fled thought they would return to their homes - many had their keys to the house.

76 years later we talk about the NAKBA-CATASTROPHE-  as something that happened - paying no intention about the length of time and the suffering of the innocent Palestinians - who did not initiate the war and the suffering, trials and tribulation - that is part of the lives of the Palestinians - in Gaza and the West Bank.





As a last resort - the Palestinians are forced to take shelter by the beach - and this singular fact - has serious consequences - with the Israel Defense Forces - shooting and killing those who aid the Palestinians - the International Court of Justice - informed - the world looking on - as it is a circus.



Why is the world allowing over 25,000 infants and children to be killed and murdered - by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) - in total, over 37,000 Palestinians have died - just because they lived in their homes and have nowhere to go.

The Palestinians are not HAMAS - HAMAS, the Muslim Brother Hood hail from Egypt - who were not tolerated in Egypt - many thousands - jailed. 

Hamas injected themselves when they saw an opportunity - that opportunity came in 2007 when Hamas took control of the Gaza Strip from the rival Palestinian faction Fatah.

It is simply wrong to associate all the Palestinians with Hamas - without having no knowledge of what really transpired.

Since the beginning, the United States has favored Israel and treated the Palestinians whose land Palestine is - and has been for thousands of years - as collateral damage.






The IronDome that we the United States provide Israel to keep Israelis safe.  At the same time, we offered Israel bombs, ammunition, tanks, and all sorts of technology - to kill innocent infants and children and innocent Palestinians - what has become of the United States?







Why are the Arab nations and Iran pussyfooting - with unity - the people of Gaza could have been saved - I am talking thousands of lives - more, infants and children - genocide. Time is running out - the hostages taken by Hamas will die - many have died - and for all the ploys, shenanigans, and machinations of Benjamin Netanyahu - Israel has lost the battles, the war and is known today as a Pariah Nation - lost all respect. 






When I was young - I had the privilege of knowing both Palestinians and Jews, and each lived side by side - and shared so much love and impacted by thinking.

It was the same knowing the Sudanese, Ethiopians, Eretian, and too many people from too many nations - we all saw in one another - humanity.

I lived in Europe and met folks who suffered in World War II. They told me the truth, and the truth will set you free.

I traveled all over India, visiting Nepal, Tibet, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Greece, Italy, Austria, and Europe—Germany, France, Italy, and Scandinavia.

I visited Kuwait and the neighboring Middle nations and saw things for myself.

When I first came to America, I saw the United States government having two main parties and working bi-partisanly.

I chose to work for the Sixth United States Army and Presidio of San Francisco. I was their last Congressional Liaison. When the Sixth United States Army was deactivated, I worked for the National Park Service and finally for the United States Park Police.

I played an essential role in Desert Storm—Desert Shield. I know what war means and what happens to our soldiers and those on the other side. That experience makes one comprehend the more profound truth of humanity.





The Palestinians are all over the world. 


It is incredible how much they have suffered and yet have the tenacity and fortitude - to face life and make something of it.

Here in San Francisco, we have many Palestinians - who have protested, and rightly so.

Many of the Palestinians were born here in the United States - we have many that have done so in San Francisco - San Francisco known the world over - where the United Nations Charter was signed by 50 Nations at the War Memorial - here in San Francisco.

The United Nations Charter was signed on June 26. 1945.

Decent San Franciscans understand that the genocide in Gaza must stop.

Killing infants and children is wrong - never mind - from what race, ethnicity, or faith - as human beings, we must not look the other way - as some are doing - and their time will come - sooner, not later.

150 United States Generals have sent a letter to the White House, bringing this to the attention of those in power, challenging them to do right, and providing empirical data.

Today, some candidates are trying to run for mayor of San Francisco but need help to govern the city and county of San Francisco.  

When approached to be enlightened - some of them ignore the opportunity - they are playing with fire.

Most have yet to learn about the history of the United Nations, much less the Constitution of the United States.

Even less about standards, many have not traveled well—they cannot do a sound needs assessment, and their way of talking—from both sides of their mouth—is despicable.

San Francisco is no longer a world-class city. 

It is a City that has been run down by deferred maintenance - and our priorities are all screwed up. 

The air that we breathe in San Francisco is terrible -  the Bay is contaminated with raw sewage, and our youth and children are denied the funds to succeed and be cared for.

Our current Mayor has no class—shouting and screaming and lacking the ability to articulate. 

Those who surround her—and I know most of them—have no class, meaning they are not well-educated on issues and have no empathy.

Politics is not for the faint of heart—it is not for those who do not have their hearts in the right place. As I say often, you cannot take anyone to a better place if your heart is not in the right place.




G a z a!





Fleeing from place to place - from time to time.





Many are so fed up moving from place to place - they pray that they die - they cannot take the suffering anymore - the Elders.





We must reflect and do right. Those who look the other way will have to reap the deeds of their actions here on Earth.





The Elders - always respect the Elders.





Two thousand-year olive tree.






She hugs the olive tree -  not so the Zionists - they cut them down.

WE HAVE YET TO SEE A PLATFORM FROM THOSE MAYORAL CANDIDATES - ADDRESSING HOW THEY PROPOSE TO SOLVE - THE DESPICABLE - QUALITY OF LIFE ISSUES - COMPROMISED BY THE LAST THREE MAYORS - ONE WORSE THAN THE OTHER.





When people cast their eyes upon the chaotic scene that unfolds in front of SF City Hall—the scene you see above—they are left to ponder what has become of our beloved San Francisco.


We all recall 1996, when Da Mayor issued a challenge to us all, promising to enhance the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Authority (MTA) and ensure our MUNI buses operated seamlessly. 

However, these promises, like leaves scattered by the wind, were left unfulfilled, leaving us disappointed. 

He said within 100 days—and we have forgotten all that and more—the many things Da Mayor executed, including hiring 2000 Executive Administrative positions—London Breed, Malia Cohen, and even Naomi Kelly.

Gavin Newsom took over and tried to help the homeless with some far left-field model - care, not cash - that model failed miserably, offering them $59 and a roof over their head.

Then came Ed Mah Lee—corrupt and did nothing much—except when he passed away, Mark Farrell came along, who already had been called in by the Ethics Commission for campaign finance violations. He had to pay a fine to the Ethics Commission—and did so—$25,000. 

For all the talk, Mayor London Breed has taken San Francisco down the drain.

Created - a cesspool of her own creation  - and judging from the current state of affairs, she will fail to do well in the sordid Rank Voting System that San Francisco embraces.

London Breed and her excellent friend Sheryl Evans Davis know much about what is happening at the Human Rights Commission.

 Carmen Chu, the SF City Administrator's Office, the dysfunctional SF Department of Public Works, the SF Planning Department, the SF Police Department, and the SF Public Utilities Commission—may I say more?

The corruption in all these departments has reached saturation point - a clean slate is in order - these good-for-nothing so-called heads of departments - pussyfooting and nonchalant.





It is time for the Human Rights Commission to be audited for its many ploys, machinations, and shenanigans. 

 



SF City Hall smells of Sulphur.





San Francisco has failed to support the Palestinians - favoring the Israeli Defense Forces - who have murdered 25,000 children - and, in total, 37,000 innocent Palestinians.






In the middle of the pandemic - someone told us to stay indoors - yet she and her lackeys were frolicking at the French Laundry -
so much for sincerity and lack of leadership. The average price to dine is $350 per person - if not more.







London Breed





London Breed - crimes are galloping away - in all directions.





You may not believe it, but I have done what I could to help San Franciscans for over 45 years. I have repeatedly faced those who felt that London Breed was not doing this or that. Time and again, I defend her. I know why.


Our City and County of San Francisco are facing dire straits.

Over 44 million square feet in our financial district are vacant downtown.

The SF San Health Department is atrocious - our hard-working nurses were discriminated against and worked like mules.

Those mentally challenged were before the Disability Committee  - asking for help, and the SF Health Department - has been ignoring those challenged - and this must stop.

There are no clear instructions for wearing masks - more than the patient or victim - has severe health issues.

The woman doctor in charge has been kicking the can down the street. Dr Susan Philip was allowed to present but kept sending mixed messages. 

It is time to step down if it is too hot in the kitchen.

The many challenged who experienced difficulties - linked to their health - articulated well - and I hope their pleas are heard - from the Mayor of San Francisco, the SF Administrator, the SF City Attorney, and the head of the SF Health Department, Dr Grant Colfax - who must maintain standards and come to the rescue of those that are dying - and need immediate help.

All the while, Dr. Grant Colfax makes over $600,000 a year.

Why do we pay these so-called good-for-nothing folks who head a city department—most of whom are uneducated on issues—and muddy the waters?

San Francisco has some highly educated individuals who understand what is happening - our local political leaders and pandering to the Democrats - who pander to the filthy rich.

How many trips has Joe Biden made to California and San Francisco to beg for money?

Joe Biden has lost his mind - he failed the Palestinians for sure - he made a statement that he is a Zionist - yet he maintains he is a Catholic - the man is confused.

Today, America is divided, and one reason we have reached this stage is that we have allowed fanatics to shine - Nancy Pelosi tried to impeach Donald Trump twice and failed.

Good leaders know the way, show the way, and go the way.

Nancy Pelosi must step down and fade into oblivion. She is all for herself and has created severe problems for America.

Joe Biden and Kamala Harris can no more win the trust of young voters - they know a skunk when they see one - and the coming elections - whatever the results - will be one that will challenge us all - we are in dire straits.

Over 150 U.S. Generals recently signed a letter and sent it to the White House. 

The U.S. Generals know what will befall our Nation after the General Elections. When one-third of the nations do not believe in our Constitution and no longer believe in fair play and justice, our Nations are in deep trouble.

It is the same in San Francisco. We have yet to have a single mayoral candidate who is educated on issues and has the tenacity and fortitude to lead. Always talking in generalities - listen to consultants mostly outsiders who have a hidden agenda.

In the old days, you had the Machine - now, the Machine is hiding behind the scenes.

Less, these candidates for SF Mayor understand the issues and the plight of the poor and indigent. 

We have candidates who are placating, and there is only so much placating one can do. None have the balls to do right and speak truth to power.

The air in San Francisco is filthy and unhealthy, the Bay has been contaminated and needs attention, thousands sleep all over the City and County of San Francisco - wherever they can find a place to rest - many of them families with children - we lie about the numbers.

No one should be sleeping in tents or under any bush and facing the inclement weather. There is no empathy. 

The candidates each have ulterior motives—one tried to steal land to build a house, another has issues with alcohol, and yet another was indicted by the SF Ethics Commission. 

The majority of the candidates are selfish.

We have 11 unique districts in San Francisco, and most of them were built by good people - most of them have left San Francisco.

We have 10 Precincts and should have an SF Police force of 2000—right now, it stands at 900.

We have many incompetent department heads and must reduce the number of Commissions—they are a waste of money and a nuisance to the San Francisco community.

Too many outside Developers are wheeling and dealing, failing to provide jobs to San Franciscans.

All this and more require the ability to do a needs assessment and have a plan with timelines that are viable and sustainable goals.

Any takers. 

Stop the Bull Shit and get to work - show us your platform and do not think you know more - when all you want to do is bluff and hoodwink us in broad daylight.







Carmen Chu is our SF City Administer. Carmen makes over $441,000 a year - why?.


Our SF City Administrator was once independent. 

The last independent one - was Bill Lee.

In 1996, the then-Mayor Willie L. Brown used our Charter to bring the SF City Administrator under the SF Mayor's office, neutralizing the once independent office with some clout.

I know Carmen Chu, and she knows me - she is a hard worker.

However, it is practically impossible for anyone to manage so many departments—most dysfunctional and corrupt—without going overboard. 

I called her office some weeks ago and requested an appointment to speak to Carmen Chu. 

I talked to someone in her office, and she promised to get back to me - this did not happen.

I wanted to talk to her about the Contract Monitoring Division and the many dubious and convoluted things happening there.

 Developers and Primes are having a field day, while our folks who need jobs are not given opportunities. 

I am talking about Career jobs - not jobs for a week and then laid off.


Here is an article that I read. I know the author, John Farrell; his father was an SF Controller. John Farrell is a good person who will not tolerate corruption, bribes, and all the utter nonsense going on now while the Mayors, London Breed and Carmen Chu, look the other way.


https://westsideobserver.com/24/5-budget-step-one-eliminate-the-city-administrators-office.php










San Francisco must take care of our infants, children, youth, and Elders - those with compromised health - the pandas are not our top priority - wheeling and dealing with China - is bad policy - of course, those with a low IQ would not know about that.

Here is an excellent article on the Pandamonium:


https://hoodline.com/2024/05/panda-diplomacy-paused-sf-mayor-s-25-million-fundraising-plan-put-on-hold-amid-oversight-concerns/








Rudolf Dwayne Jones.



Let me clarify that I have worked hard to serve the community as the director of environmental justice advocacy for over 45 years.

Dwayne Jones, who stole millions of dollars, was tracked down by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. 

The mess was so evident, and with the many in-your-face atrocities, everyone knew that Dwayne Jones was NOT the gatekeeper of the Bayview Hunters Point - he anointed himself.

The SF Controller, Ben Rosenfield, handled many complaints and has since retired. The complaints were taken to Dennis Herrera, the City Attorney.

Paradoxically, the General Manager of the SF Public Utilities Commission today - where millions went unaccounted for is now handled by Dennis Herrera, who makes over $500,000 a year.

The feds came in at some time - and the rest is history.

Only the Feds can trace the money and bring down anyone who is a crook.

Those Black who have disgraced their name and are still working for the SF City and County of San Francisco must remember what happened to Harlan Kelly, Naomi Kelly, Juliet Ellis, and Dwayne Jones - and what will happen to some forty more - singing the blues.

Those Blacks who think they can have easy access to taxpayers' money and dip into SF City Department funds - must learn to think twice.

It is a pity with the millions Dwayne Jones stole - and the millions he doled out to Young Community Developers.

Hundreds on his payroll doling out bread crumbs - Dwayne Jones and his company RDJ Consultants - disgraced the Bayview Hunters Point Community. 

Today, the constituents' suffering of Bayview Hunters Point has been exacerbated.

It is incredible how some crooks will try not to do anything to help the constituents - talk about how Dwayne Jones was targeted - he was not targeted.

Dwayne Jones made himself known to the entire world - wheeling and dealing - and hurting thousands of infants, children, mothers, Elders, and those with compromised health.

Those who benefit from the blood money must admit they did wrong and change their sordid ways. 

Pay back the money and stop defying the legalities, like YCD trying to buy buildings.

Trying to tear down the Juvenile Hall and build housing. 

The same is true with 1800 Oakdale - none of these ventures will come to fruition.

YCD is known for money laundering. Those connected with it - visit places like Bogota, Columbia - the land of the cartels.

YCD repeatedly pretends it is doing something, but the many audits show the opposite.

With the money he illegally acquired, thousands of our infants, children, and others in need, our Elders - and those with compromised health - could have been helped - this did not happen.

In all of my articles, I took a position only if I had empirical data - I do not go to the POPOS - like some of you imagine - I can stand on my ground and defend myself.

The Blacks who have harmed San Francisco are many - and each who is going wrong will be brought to book. It is as simple as that.

This does not mean the Asians and others are not doing things that they ought not to do - but be careful when you say those of you cowards that I took Dwayne Jones down - in fact, I warned him again and again, and I did that to Harlan Kelly too.









Dwayne Jones put these signs all over the place - took the money, and did nothing much for the community.





Where is Juliet Ellis - who worked hand in hand with Dwayne
 Jones?







For those who think they can just criticize, think twice - you folks that protect crooks and take bread crumbs must be ashamed of yourselves.

San Franciscans must mandate a sensible platform where we can work with transparency and accountability to make good things happen.

We surely need drastic changes - corruption has reached - saturation point - and with corruption comes all sorts of atrocities committed - mostly adversely impacting innocent citizens.

There is no doubt that with incompetent heads of San Francisco City Departments - hired for their connections to those who want to cheat, steal, and hoodwink the hard-working San Franciscans, enough is enough. 

We must address the pollution in our air, the pollution in our Bay, and quality of life issues that have degraded - and the statistics on the homeless and crimes given are dubious in nature.

No empathy is left in the City named after Saint Francisco of Assisi.

We witness the rudeness of the highest order - many non-profits preying on the poor and indigent.

Try calling any city department to speak to the head of the department and see what happens.

The last five Mayors in San Francisco have steadily contributed to the degradation of our once beautiful and well-loved City and County of San Francisco.

Greed and corruption have reached saturation point.





The Palestinians are made to suffer from Oct 7, 2024. Forced to move from place to place - 85% of Gaza has been destroyed. This is genocide - the main force behind it is the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) maiming and killing - genocide.





Enough is Enough.





The world is watching this worst genocide in contemporary times.





Stop the genocide.






Stop the genocide - over 25,000 infants and children are dead.

SAN FRANCISCO HAS BEEN DECLARED AS HAVING THE WORST AIR TO BREATHE - OUR BAY WATERS INUNDATED WITH FECES FROM MANY MAIN FORCE PIPES CONTROLLED BY SAN FRANCISCO PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION AND MORE.

 





Hetch Hetchy 

Statement of Incompatible Activities  - SFPUC:

https://sfpuc.org/sites/default/files/about-us/policies-reports/Public_Utilities_Commission_SIA_061323.pdf


The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission has repeatedly failed us all. 

We need an institution that sets high standards and demonstrates unwavering accountability and transparency, instilling hope for a better future. 

You can take the horse to the water's edge but not force it to drink.

I heard the person in charge of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion give a presentation - on the state of affairs at the SFPUC and its employees.

He clearly pointed out - that drastic changes - are called for - to make the SF Public Utilities Commission - operable.


Resolution Condemning Systemic Racism

and Promote Racial Justice:


https://sfpuc.sharefile.com/share/view/s9eeb6fd36f14639b


Right now, the SFPUC has top management - being a pain in the ass - the employees - are leaving, and those who are there - wish they could go.

The SFPUC controls over 2000 employees. It has significant assets, including the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir, which provides clean drinking water and hydroelectricity.

It has operations linked to quarries that bring in large amounts of money, millions of acres of grazing ground for cattle, and more.

It has golf courses, and these golf courses and other recreational facilities bring in money.

It provides clean drinking water to a large region in the Bay Area, with San Francisco being foremost.

It also generates money to provide sewer needs to the public of San Francisco - be it that we still use clean drinking water to flush our toilets.

The San Francisco Public Utilities has millions of acres of land - from Hetch Hetchy to Crystal Springs and here in San Francisco - but also in San Mateo, Brisbane, Burlingame, Daly City, Palo Alto - that is why we are called the City and County of San Francisco.

The SFPUC has many buildings - some old power stations, - warehouses, and other facilities - some used wisely, others locked up.

It also has large vacant areas used to store large pipes and other materials - outdoors.

Many of these locations—are well-fenced and protected. 

If we had not had the locations, storing these materials would have cost us a lot of money.

The SFPUC also leases land - to some non-profits to grow greens and help the community.

For some strange reason, the SFPUC has not treated the citizens of Bayview Hunters Point with respect.

We, the people, created the SFPUC Contractors' Center—it was my vision. I, Francisco Da Costa, was aided by Jae Ryu and Scott Hanks, who worked with me at Executive Park, 5 Thomas Mellon Circle, SF—CA 94134.

It moved to 150 Executive Park and has been underutilized for 5 years. 

Many of us have yet to read the Raker Act 1913 - created to bring clean drinking water to San Francisco - to cater to our City of San Francisco and the Municipalities.

Also, electricity is used for municipal functions here in San Francisco.

For the longest time until 1996, the Public Housing and the United States Army at the Presidio received electricity for free.

Find out who the Mayor of San Francisco was in 1996.

Few of us take the time to think that our clean drinking water comes from the Hetchy Hetchy Reservoir - once the most beautiful valley in the water - that was dammed with the land stolen from the indigenous people - who, to this day, are NOT respected.

Water is stored within the tall granite walls of Hetch Hetchy—we have had water stored for over five years.

In the interim, we deprive the salmon of water - creating warm water in the Tuolumne River - resulting in toxic algae - killing the fish and anything in its path.

The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) does not care that it has drained the Tuolumne River for all these many years, creating a situation that is the worst ever for the salmon, who have been spawning for thousands of years.

One of the worst animals to ever live on this Earth is homo sapiens - greed is what makes mankind the worst animal - destroying almost anything good - as long as the greed brings money in - avarice.





We get our clean drinking water from Hetch Hetchy - 267 miles away - come to Crystal Springs and then to our Reservoirs
in San Francisco, one of them is the University Mound.





San Francisco uses treated water to flush its toilets.


Water is life! Water is precious. It seems the SFPUC does not appreciate getting clean drinking water from Hetch Hetchy—stolen land and stolen water belonging to the indigenous tribes—who must be acknowledged with a plaque—much the same that you folks have for the SFPU Commissioners on the 110th anniversary.

Here in San Francisco, we brag that the water we drink is the best. It is not.

It has been some time now—we mix groundwater with our Hetch Hetchy water, and this hoodwinking in broad daylight is known to some—and mixing groundwater with Hetch Hetchy is not what most citizens approve of.

I have been attending the SFPU Commission meetings for a long time. 

The lies are incredible, and most within SFPUC know little about what is happening.

Employees are told to do what they have to do and not reveal to those outside SFPUC what is genuinely happening within SFPUC.

It is as if it is a cult. 

That is why Harlan Kelly, Juliet Ellis, Dwayne Jones, and others—some still working for SFPUC—caused so much damage. 

The community was the one who suffered the most.

It took the Federal Bureau of Investigation to follow the money and indict these very corrupt individuals - we have over thirty left - and while most of them do not get sleep - they may - try to run and hide - but they will be caught. 









Attorney David L. Anderson.


It took Attorney David L. Anderson—at that time the Federal Attorney General of Northern California—who took it upon himself to investigate all the corruption that had reached saturation point.

Today, the SFPU Commission is again in the doldrums.

For many years, going back to 1980, we have had raw sewage released into the San Francisco Bay.

For all these years, the community has suffered, with many windsurfers exposed to raw sewage, pathogens, and other contaminants. It is a shame that our City and County of San Francisco have looked the opposite.

Innocent people who swim are exposed to raw sewage.

This is especially true during heavy rains when the "dual system." Our system combines sanitary and rainwater into one system.

It allows the SFPUC to claim all sewage is treated before discharge into receiving waters.

Their play on words combines Combined Sewage Overflow - as a mix of treated sewage before discharge.

The Bay Keepers have been doing a good job. 

Kudos to the Bay Keepers, not afraid of the many crooks polluting and contaminating our Bay and the surrounding area - putting innocent citizens in harm's way.

However, it did not occur to us who followed this issue—the many Notice of Violations—that the Environmental Protection Agency, the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board, manages quality control for the region at the state level.

Joining them at the State of California - Attorney General's Office and the Bay Keep with time.

The 1972 Clean Water Act mandates specific standards. 

In the past, when we filed our complaints, we, the people, were ignored. 

We know this problem is severe and look forward to how the community will be informed and whether they will be at the table.

Why did it take these entities so long to wake up to the issue of raw sewage flowing on our streets and into the Bay, the many Force Main eight-foot pipes that discharge over 1.8 billion gallons of combined sewage into the Bay?


Here is the court case that you must read:

h

https://www.epa.gov/system/files/documents/2024-05/3-24-cv-02594-city-county-san-francisco-complaint-2024-05-01.pdf


San Francisco still has many homes with lead pipes—one would think that by 2024, we would have addressed this situation.

Joe Biden and his lackeys keep coming to California and San Francisco to fill their campaign coffers, but not once have they addressed the sordid conditions in San Francisco.

It is a shame that infants, children, Elders, and those with compromised health are exposed to lead - the lead pipes should have been replaced a long time ago.

In 2002, we were promised over 1100 miles of sewer and over 1000 miles of clean water pipes - most leeching would be replaced.

We, the people, were promised that Karen Kubick would present us with the progress made twice a year. The last presentation was three years ago.





It is a shame that San Francisco has a $14.6 budget - and millions are wasted.

We have those heading the Human Rights Commission, the Department of Public Works, the City Administrator, and many in Room 200 at City Hall - testing the patience of the citizens of San Francisco.

We will see a drastic change with the SF Public Utilities Commission. 

After the results are declared, we will also see a drastic change in the coming SF Mayoral Race - the result will be a change for the better, and those crooks who are now having a field day will be singing the blues. 

In the interim, our infants, children, youth, our Elders, and those with compromised health are dying.

We have a new SF Controller, Greg Wagner, and Todd Rydstrom is the Deputy Controller. He is a man of his word and has served us well—a man known for his tenacity and fortitude.

At this juncture, we count on the Controller's Office to save our City and County of San Francisco.

The results, leading to new leadership, will expose the chronic corruption and see many jumping ship—in fact, much before the coming general elections.

We San Franciscans fought hard to have a working and well-represented SF Sunshine Task Force, but it needs to be fixed.

In like manner, we did our best to create the SF Ethics Commission - sad to say - it is dysfunctional.

We have the SF Controller - Ben Rosenfield, who saw the light at the end of the tunnel. 

The two current head Controllers have a lot of work to do, and some of us will do our best to support them.

Our former City Attorney is now the General Manager of the SF Public Utilities Commission, and the current situation could be better.

For all the talk that the SF Public Utilities Commission is focused on the environment and the community, there is no evidence that this is happening.

I attended all the meetings linked to the Task Force related to the Sewer System Improvement Project (SSIP) that fought for Community Benefits. Nothing much happened, and that is an understatement.

It is sad to see our infants, children, youth, women, men, Elders, and those who have compromised health - more the physically and mentally challenged slowly die in the San Francisco - Bayview Hunters Point area.

Our Elders live in trailers at Pier 94, with sand blowing in all directions, and they Are treated with disdain.

The indigent in Bayview Hunters Point need help finding help that makes a difference - there is no upward mobility.

The developers come into the community - and do not offer any career jobs to the local population.

To get jobs, we need the youth and youth offered sound training - City Build is a joke - offering pre-apprenticeship - pre-apprenticeship is an oxymoron.

The SF City Department is forced to set aside some money so that the Non-Profits can provide opportunities with taxpayers' money.

This needs to be corrected.

It's totally wrong, and a deep audit will prove that what I say is exemplary—I have the empirical data.
