Praise! San Francisco DA Recalled over Progressive Policies
Praise! San Francisco DA Recalled over Progressive Policies
This story reports on two major answered prayers. First, we have reported and prayed many times about what lax crime policies have done to California, and especially San Francisco. We thank the Lord San Franciscans have had enough. We pray it sends a message to other cities that are tolerating violence that they need to keep their citizens safe. Second, this District Attorney was one of the many George Soros “chose” by donating excessively to his campaign. You can read more about Soros’ efforts to put key DAs in cities around the country in this IFA Special Report (Click the link). We praise God for this defeat of a radical Soros pick and pray that it will be the start of a trend.
From Fox News. Voters in San Francisco have chosen to recall embattled District Attorney Chesa Boudin following a recall effort centered on his handling of rising crime across the city.
Find out when your state prays.
San Francisco voted to recall Boudin with 61%, compared to 39% who wanted him to stay as the district attorney, according to results at the time the Associated Press called the race. . . .
He faced an onslaught of criticism over his progressive criminal justice policies as those supporting his recall pointed to an increased murder rate, violent crime, shoplifting, burglaries, and an open-air drug trade as reasons to vote for his removal from office.
Boudin’s supporters praised him for keeping his promises of eliminating cash bail, not prosecuting quality-of-life crimes and putting fewer people behind bars.
He is the first San Francisco district attorney to be recalled, and only the second to face a recall election.
After news of his loss, Boudin said at an election-night watch party that his push for progressive policies in criminal justice and prison reform was not over.
“This is a movement, not a moment in history,” Boudin said. . . .
Boudin blamed his loss on corporate interests who outspent him “three to one” as he fought against the recall effort. . . .
San Francisco Mayor London Breed, who in recent weeks has appeared skeptical of Boudin’s prosecutorial work but did not endorse his recall effort, will select his replacement.
Another recall effort is in the works against Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón, and the organizers believe Boudin’s loss should be a warning sign.
“Tonight showed that voters from every community and every walk of life, regardless of political ideology, are rejecting pro-criminal policies that are masked as criminal justice reform,” said a representative of the Recall Gascon Campaign. “George Gascón and Chesa Boudin’s failed social experiments have destroyed communities while doing nothing to meaningfully reform the system. If LA County voters sign and return their recall petitions, Gascon will be walking the same plank in the near future.”

Father God I praise You!! As a Californian who has chosen to stay in this beautiful stare it has been disheartening and disgusting to see the political policies destroy our cities. In Jesus Mighty Name I agree w Heaven and speak LIFE into LA, SF and Sacramento and yes! Recall, yes! We want and desire to see DAs that have a righteous and godly agenda! We defeat the plan of the enemy in the Mighty Name of Jesus Amen!!
Praise God! In spite of what we see and hear from the news media, God is on the move. This is a great example of evil being overcome with good. This is a beginning, and needs to continue in our nation. Corrupt, indifferent, deceived governmental officials NEED to be rooted out, and replaced with God-fearing, reasonable people who will run our justice system fairly and honestly. Lord, please, root out and remove the mislead, deceived officials who are not performing their jobs in a way that is beneficial to our nation. In Jesus’ name.
Thank God & pray it continues!
Amen!!!!!“Learn to do good; seek justice, correct oppression; bring justice to the fatherless, and please the widow’s cause,” (Isaiah 1:17). “He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?” (Micah 6:8).
Thank you Lord. Heal our land. In Jesus most Holy name, I pray. Amen
God is always in control, he gave us free will to make decisions to glorify him, i believe we are seeing this take place in so many political situations
Thank you God. May a sunami of justice seekers recall every corrupt DA bought by Soros and his ilk!
Amen! In Jesus’ Might Name; amen!
