This right-wing lawsuit against San Francisco is a preview of what’s to come under Trump and Project 2025 (good guys winning!)
The San Francisco Chronicle ^ | July 23, 2024 | Nuala Bishari

Three years ago, San Francisco launched an experiment to give 150 pregnant Black and Pacific Islander women $1,000 a month, no strings attached, for the duration of their pregnancy and six months after the birth.

*** Now, that effort is almost certainly about to come to a screeching halt. And another guaranteed income program to assist San Francisco’s transgender residents — who are 18 times more likely to experience homelessness than the general population — already has been shut down. Participants were only given a month’s notice before being cut off.

*** So, how could two successful programs, lauded by Breed as good-faith efforts to address systemic inequities, be on death’s door?

*** A lawsuit filed in November claimed that because San Francisco’s programs prioritize benefits for people based on gender, race and ethnicity, their use of public funds is discriminatory. The suit was filed by the Californians for Equal Rights Foundation on behalf of two plaintiffs — one of whom is San Francisco mayoral candidate Ellen Zhou. When I dug into the small organization behind the suit, and the Dallas-based lawyers it retained, I found connections to right-wing conspiracy theorists, former California politicians and ties to the Heritage Foundation, which created Project 2025 — the radical Republican blueprint for remaking the government if Donald Trump is reelected president.

The major mission is to ensure that California public agencies treat people fairly and equally, regardless of our race, ethnicity, and other protected classes,” Frank Xu, president of the Californians for Equal Rights Foundation, told me over Zoom. “Racial preferential policies — including critical race theory, and diversity, equity inclusion — are lowering standards for our next generation.”

The civil rights laws swing both ways. Libtards don't seem to understand that you can't discriminate against men or white people.

Say - I wonder if Gaslight Media stooge Nuala Bishari ever dug into Joe Biden's dementia?

"experiencing homelessness"

I would bet 99% of those are homeless due to PERSONAL DECISIONS including drug abuse. But personal responsibility is anathema to Democrats because it would mean people are relying on themselves instead of government.

Nuala, when exactly was the Civil Rights Act of 1964 repealed? You know, the law that prohibits discrimination based on race, sex, religion, national origin, etc.?

Trump has said it himself...He has nothing to do with 2025....in any way, shape or form. When will the media and their little helpers stop implying that he does.

The left tries to tie this thing to Trump and he regularly denounces it. But it doesn’t matter.

More attempt to link President Trump to Project 2025? He has very clearly disavowed Project 2025, said he had no role in it, etc. This is BS from Heritage Foundation and not from Trump.

Then why are you advocating for unequal treatment of pregnant mothers or street people?

This is 100% the result of our post 1913, Federal Reserve, printed-fiat currency.

As long as money can be created from nothing by a central authority, there will ALWAYS be money for their political and social-engineering projects, no matter how absurd.

I am mildly curious as to why you think dragging a racist local government into Federal Court is “BS”.

I'm not even reading the content. I'm objected to the repeated effort to tie President Trump to the 900-page Project 2025 by Heritage Foundation, which President Trump has adamantly disavowed. Heritage Foundation is serving as a useful idiot like Graham and Lankford to embarrass or tie Trump to things he may not agree with.

I'm sure there may be a few items in that 900 pages that mirror President Trump, but that opens the door to the rest.

No Trump supporter should be promoting or quoting or in any way legitimaizing Project 2025.

Discipline and hard work are no longer American traits.
