San Francisco Democrats are locked in a race to the right
Democratic mayoral candidates are engaging in games of one-upmanship by launching conservative-sounding plans to increase law enforcement and force people into addiction treatment.
SAN FRANCISCO — San Francisco mayoral candidate Mark Farrell said Thursday that, if elected, he will ask California to send more armed National Guard troops into downtown to fight the city’s open-air drug markets.
The announcement, part of Farrell’s plan to address the fentanyl overdose crisis, is the latest example of how the Democrat and venture capitalist is trying to oust Mayor London Breed in November by outflanking her to the right.
Breed and Gov. Gavin Newsom, both Democrats, have used the National Guard and California Highway Patrol to help local police dismantle fentanyl rings, especially ahead of the city hosting the APEC summit last fall.

You can only trust a Democrat to lie to you.
