When you're too far left for San Francisco, well... BYE, FELICIA! And how do you like the balls on this Collins bitch? Maybe she can coach girl's volleyball. I'll bet she'd love that. San Francisco residents overwhelmingly approved of a vote Tuesday to recall three of the city’s school board members, election officials said. Critics, including San Francisco Mayor London Breed, argued the members — school board President Gabriela López, Vice President Faauuga Moliga and Commissioner Alison Collins — pushed progressive politics rather than act in the best interest of children during the pandemic, and voters agreed, according to the San Francisco Department of Elections. "The voters of this city have delivered a clear message that the school board must focus on the essentials of delivering a well-run school system above all else," Breed said in a statement after the vote. "San Francisco is a city that believes in the value of big ideas, but those ideas must be built on the foundation of a government that does the essentials well." In San Francisco, one of the country's most liberal cities, Democrats were split over the recall effort. The mayor, who is now responsible for appointing new board members to fill the vacancies until another election in November, also praised the parents who initiated the effort. The parents "were fighting for what matters most — their children," she said. Those who opposed the recall called it a waste of time and money, but enough San Francisco residents launched the recall effort in January 2021, claiming the school board members poorly chose their priorities, which included the renaming of 44 schools, but were slow to reopen district schools that were closed under the coronavirus pandemic. "The city of San Francisco has risen up and said this is not acceptable to put our kids last," said Siva Raj, a parent who helped launch the recall effort. "Talk is not going to educate our children, it’s action. It’s not about symbolic action, it’s not about changing the name on a school, it is about helping kids inside the school building read and learn math." Collins, Lopez and Moliga have consistently defended themselves as they claim their record shows they are doing what they were elected to do. The recall was started in January 2021, after the board voted to rename 44 schools that honored Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, and U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein — public figures the board claimed were linked to racism and sexism. The plan was subsequently criticized for historical inaccuracies and the school board ultimately dropped it. Collins was criticized again after tweets she wrote in 2016 resurfaced, which critics argued were racist. Collins said the tweets were taken out of context, refused to remove them, then sued the district and her colleagues for $87 million. The lawsuit was dismissed. ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | ||

Maybe they are waking up. It would be great if they would send new congressional representatives to Washington that would put America's interests first. _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."

Thank you Very little |
Nothing like a year of home schooling, having kids 24/7 that will alter your view of how school management is handling their responsibility.. | |||

Next step is to recall the District Attorney Local media has attempted to downplay and minimize both recall efforts. Notice the reporter of the article, is simply an AP reporter, not anybody on the local beat Local Lefty alternative news sites are slooow to update the results on their home pages https://sfist.com https://www.sfbg.com https://missionlocal.org | |||

I'd say something pithy, but I'm laughing too hard. A Jewish woman who came up as a member of the San Francisco city council and then as mayor of San Francisco gets her named scrubbed off of a public school because her name is "linked to racism and sexism". Yeah, I'd say the school board lost its collective mind. | |||

She's a piece of work, and 79% of voters decided that. Asians in SF have been trying to get rid of her for a year, and they turned out in record numbers, based on these old tweets: ..and also for the school board ending merit based admissions for the better schools, using race quotas (and CRT) to enroll poor performing blacks and shutting out straight "A" asian kids in the higher performing schools.

A real peach she is, the epitome of San Francisco Leftists, elitist, woke, and an idiot. Friend of mine volunteered for the recall effort, canvasing for signatures in neighborhoods, said she's your classic 'know-it-all house wife who thinks she's smarter than everyone else and believes her ideas are the only valid ones, add in a heaping spoonful of woke BS and you get her.' Her husband is a well connected commercial property developer She attempted to sue the school board for $87m after the very board she sits on, voted a motion of no-confidence on her...the judge tossed it out as having no merit.

When they elected to rename the Dianna Feinstein school the battle was already lost for them. I guess Collins can go get a job working for Newsome - she'll fit right in there. | |||

When shit and piss being literally in the streets weren't enough to wake people up, it's good to know the people of San Francisco has a limit. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||
