Soros-Backed DA Chesa Boudin Recalled in San Francisco

Wednesday, June 8th, 2022

Before this year, if you had asked observers where the next big conservative political revolution would come from, “San Francisco” would probably be about the last place on the list. But first voters ousted three radical school board members over Critical Race Theory and now San Francisco voters have recalled radical Soros-backed DA Chesa Boudin.

Fed-up San Francisco voters ousted their progressive district attorney on Tuesday in a recall election that rejected his soft-on-crime policies following surges in shameless shoplifting, car break-ins and rampant, open-air drug dealing.

The recall effort against Chesa Boudin, a former public defender and the son of convicted Weather Underground terrorists, was supported by 61% of voters in early returns, according to NBC.

Tuesday’s recall election, Proposition H on the ballot, could prove a bellwether of voter sentiment across the US, including in New York City, where Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has faced widespread criticism since enacting a slew of progressive policies after taking office in January.

“Around the country, we have seen the rise of the so-called progressive DAs,” Richie Greenberg, a former Republican mayoral candidate and spokesman for the recall effort, told The Post before Tuesday’s vote.

“We here in San Francisco have lived it and we don’t want to see the great city of New York fall in the way that San Francisco has.”

Snip.

Viral videos have revealed shoplifters running rampant during smash-and-grab thefts at high-end stores, with city police Lt. Tracy McCray lamenting to Fox News last year that “we can have a greatest hits compilation of people just walking in and cleaning out the store shelves.”

Offenses against Asian-Americans also proliferated amid the pandemic, with lifelong resident Henry Wong, 74, who worked for the late comedian Robing Williams saying that people “spit on me on elevators, on the streets” and calling Boudin “the worst district attorney the city has ever had.”

“These are crimes,” Wong told the Washington Post.

“And he doesn’t care. It’s just so easy to break the law.”

The latest official police statistics show that overall crime in the city is up nearly 8 percent this year, with a 20 percent surge in larcenies, as well as spikes in homicides, rapes and assaults.

Boudin was just one of 75 George Soros-backed prosecutors elected around the country. (Here’s a list to get started on.) Here’s a partial list of Soros fronts:

  • Open Society Foundation
  • The Tides Center
  • The Tides Foundation
  • Tides Advocacy
  • Alliance for Safety and Justice
  • The Brennan Center for Justice (“Brennan also employs the public relations firm Berlin Rosen, which also happens to be the largest expenditure item for nearly all Soros DA campaign spending.”)
  • Color of Change
  • Equal Justice Initiative
  • Fair and Just Prosecution
  • Justice and Public Safety PAC (and various subsidiary state organizations)
  • NEO Philanthropy Fund
  • New Virginia Majority
  • The New Venture Fund
  • The Sixteen Thirty Fund
  • Texas Organizing Project
  • Vera Institute for Justice
  • I’m betting there are others.

    Bouncing Boudin is an excellent start, but all Soros prosecutors need to be recalled, defeated, or indicted. Crime cannot improve as long as racist Soros-backed prosecutors refuse to indict, try or convict criminals due to the color of their skin.
