Chesa Boudin bites the dust, but to Democrats, he’s just a blip

San Francisco voters ousted soft-on-crime Chesa Boudin in a recall election that wrapped with such wide margins, the message is hard to mistake: Even Democrat-dominated districts don't like thieves and murderers within their midsts. But how long will this attitude last? Published June 8, 2022

Democrats ignore root causes of gun crime on purpose

Democrats know their bluster, grandstanding and political posturing about gun control is just that -- bluster, grandstanding and political posturing.
