It’s not fair. It’s not compassionate. It’s not progressive. We need to do better.

I was just at @Safeway on 16th, and Potrero, the woman and daughter in this video were behind me and shoving past me while I was paying, and I couldn't figure out what for, well, her and her daughter both had bags full of stolen groceries. When they saw @SFPD leave their post by the front door, they took off. Great parenting, huh?

Hope House is a sober shelter, and in the first six months since opening, it has achieved an impressive 78% success rate in moving residents into supportive housing or other long-term recovery programs.  Hope House ensures that people struggling with addiction aren’t surrounded by the same drugs and alcohol they are trying to leave behind. The program, led by the Salvation Army, centers on sobriety and recovery.  As Supervisor Matt Dorsey said during our tour, many problems begin to solve themselves when drugs and alcohol are removed from the equation. We still have work to do on our streets, but we will keep doubling down on solutions that are working.

3/14/2026 San Francisco: The Fentanyl Fold is the lasting symbol of how radical “harm reduction” failed addicts, families, businesses, and the very communities it claimed to help! Promoting drug use to addicts is a failed experiment! @Twolfrecovery

Every single time that @ECS_SF CEO Beth Stokes spouts off about her Permanent "Supportive" Housing programs and pilots, remind her to SAY THE NAMES of these overdosed, dead human beings pulled from her units. Sons, Daughters, Mothers, Fathers, Family 💔 @StopDrugDeaths

Here's the CEO of San Francisco's 2nd largest housing provider gushing about their program where they help residents use drugs. And you wonder why @ECS_SF has more OD deaths in their buildings than anyone else in the city. @HUDgov @SecretaryTurner

@Twolfrecovery I’d say we do treat drug addiction with a public health response but we have not treated crime with a justice response - we’ve been treating crime with a public health response and it’s been a complete failure.

More and more, people say we should treat drug use and addiction with a public health response and not "criminalize." But, what does that mean? This is what many in the medical field think. What's missing? The negative behaviors of addiction itself. 🧵

Recovery is possible with high quality programs like Hope House, run by our partners at @salvationarmysf @TheWayOutSF. It’s just one example of the changes SF is making to help people break cycles of addiction and homelessness, and reclaim their lives.
Salvation Army SF@salvationarmysf

Hope House is the only abstinence-based shelter in SF history. On days like this, seeing participants enjoying the park together is a beautiful reminder that recovery, new beginnings, and brighter futures are possible. Recovery 1st! @TheWayOutSF

For too long, San Franciscans have been told that we must choose between clean, safe neighborhoods and compassion for those struggling on our streets.  I ran for mayor because I believed we can—and should—do both. And today, we’re showing that our city doesn’t have to choose between compassion and accountability.   Today, I signed legislation to open the new Rapid Enforcement, Support, Evaluation, and Triage Center—better known as the RESET Center.  The RESET Center allows our officers to arrest those engaged in public drug use at a speed and volume we have never seen before. If you use drugs on our streets, we will arrest you.  But with this new resource, we will also give those suffering from addiction a real chance to choose recovery. The RESET Center is a health-focused facility designed to care for publicly intoxicated individuals by moving them off the streets and into a safe and controlled environment. It provides hope by giving individuals a chance to sober up and be connected to treatment.

@garrytan Any Rand wrote about this in 1957 - Atlas Shrugged. When a culture punishes excellence and rewards dependency, the people who drive progress will eventually refuse to participate and move, and the system collapses under its own weight.

The ultimate goal is asset seizure There are better taxes that are not unrealized gains tax killing startups or a double taxation on assets you already paid taxes on But if they can trick California into asset seizure, 0% chance it stops at billionaires

🚨AOC: "I don't think that we have to wait for any one president to impose a wealth tax. I think it needs to be done expeditiously." REPORTER: "The US is uniquely placed to do it because people can't flee." This is DEMONIC! They're EXCITED to steal

@Twolfrecovery @EricaJSandberg @kunalmodi lol - the same groups responsible for destroying the TL are now getting $$$$ to help the ppl they hurt? Drop in centers do not replace structure/accountability. If you need a drop in center, you need treatment more. I thought we canned the Grant Colfax playbook?

$250B wasted. $18B for a bullet train with no tracks. $24B for homelessness with no results. $32B stolen in unemployment fraud. 16 years of one-party rule. Higher costs. Failing schools. More poverty. I walked away. Join me. Let’s hold Sacramento accountable. #MakeCAGoldenAgain #WalkAway #CAGov

@bettersoma @Twolfrecovery @MaggieAngst @sfchronicle Housing First - drug tolerant/drug permissive govt housing has never been the solution to our drug and homeless crisis, and overdose epidemic. San Francisco has lost 4,500 addicts to OD, yet drug dealers operate with impunity! Recovery & Public Safety 1st!
