[NY Post] San Francisco’s no-nonsense new district attorney is cleaning house — as she reportedly laid off 15 staffers inherited from her booted, woke predecessor.
Whoa!
The firings Friday by Brooke Jenkins come nearly two weeks after she was appointed district attorney by Mayor London Breed following the recall of her much-maligned predecessor Chesa Boudin, according to SFGATE.com.
The wise politicians tracks and responds to changes in the mood of the public. The technical term is keeping a finger on the pulse...
"Today, I made difficult, but important changes to my management team and staff that will help advance my vision to restore a sense of safety in San Francisco by holding serious and repeat offenders accountable and implementing smart criminal justice reforms," Jenkins said in a statement.
Jenkins dropped the firing ax on most the 25 staffers who worked for Boudin, days after holding a 20-minute introductory meeting with them that some attendees described as "uncomfortable" and "icy," SFGATE.com also reported.
The staffers fired include Arcelia Hurtado, who had worked as managing attorney and served as the DA Office’s representative on the city’s Innocence Commission, which investigates potential wrongful convictions.
Boudin established the commission in 2020. Jenkins told KQED Thursday she intends to continue it.

She probably suffices as a conservative in San Francisco (aka "The City"). That said I really have no problem with reviewing convictions. There is no place in the justice system for wrongful convictions.

"Today, I made difficult, but important changes to my management team..."
Why politicians and some businessmen always have to pretend certain decisions are 'difficult'? Just come out and say 'Fuckin' no-brainer, guys - you're all shitcanned!'
Any day you displease a member of The Squad is a good one...

[DAILYCALLER] House Speaker Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. On-again-off-again Speaker of the House. It's not her fault when they lose, but it's her accomplishment when they win. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace and occasional senior... uhhh... moments... ’s husband Paul bought up to $5 million in stock of a computer chip company ahead of a vote on a bill next week that would hand billions in subsidies to boost chip manufacturing, a financial disclosure shows.
Paul Pelosi purchased 20,000 shares of Nvidia, one of the world’s largest semiconductor companies, on June 17, according to the speaker’s disclosure report released Thursday. Now, senators will convene as early as Tuesday to vote on a bipartisan competition bill, which allocates $52 billion to boost domestic semiconductor manufacturing and gives tax credits for production, Rooters reported Thursday.
"It certainly raises the specter that Paul Pelosi could have access to some insider legislative information," Craig Holman, a government affairs lobbyist for the left-wing think tank Public Citizen, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. "This is the reason why there is a stock trading app that exclusively monitors Paul’s trading activity and then its followers do likewise."
Nvidia is a multinational corporation that designs and manufactures graphics processors and other technology, and is heavily reliant on semiconductors. The House passed a bill in February that included $52 billion in domestic subsidies for the semiconductor industry, and chip companies, including Nvidia, demanded Congress in June move forward on finalizing semiconductor subsidies for domestic manufacturing.
"The conference is stuck. And so it seems to me there are a couple of ways out of this, potentially," said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell Tuesday, noting that the bill would have a better likelihood of passing without the $52 billion funding for semiconductor manufacturing.

3 months ago Nvidia was worth almost $300 a share. Then it crashed hard to the $150's. What's going on here with Nancy proping them up with the US Treasury's noney?

I think this one will put the lie to the myth that all insider trades make money. The price of nVidia's (and competitor AMD's) product is crashing and both are giving forward guidance of reduced production in the quarters ahead.
I predict they lose money or tread water if they are lucky on this one.

We need some domestic chip and electronics manufacturing capacity in the US. I just hope that Congress puts clearly defined rules on just how the money gets used. But I'm not gonna hold my breath.
