It was not the Republicans that put the Recall of San Fran DA Boudin on the ballot. It was anti-gun, anti-freedom, pro-criminal Progressives from the Silcom Valley who are fearful of going into San Fran that financed the effort to make San Fran safe. Now the same type of Leftists, but from Hollywood, are financing the Recall of Gascon, the LA DA. Even radicals in Hollywood understand how dangerous it is to be in L.A.

Report: Hollywood Liberal Elites Donating to Recall of Soros-Backed Los Angeles D.A. George Gascon
DAVID NG, Breitbart, 2/7/22
Hollywood liberal elites are reportedly joining the effort to recall George Soros-backed, Los Angeles district attorney George Gascón (D), whose soft-on-crime approach has prompted a surge in homicides, robberies, and other violent offenses.
Among the showbiz liberals who have donated to the recall campaign are studio honcho Mike Medavoy and his wife, Irene Meadavoy; Oscar-winning Argo producer Grant Heslov; and former 20th Century Fox executive and producer Jonathan Sheinberg, according to documents obtained by Los Angeles magazine.
They are joined by a slew of other wealthy L.A.-area Democrats who are fed up with Gascón’s tenure as D.A. Others who reportedly donated to the recall include billionaires Ron Burkle and Marc Nathanson, as well as Hillary Clinton-supporter Jordan Kaplan.
As Breitbart News reported, far-left actress Rosanna Arquette has also expressed support to the effort to recall Gascón, recently tweeting an image from the Recall George Gascón effort.

Gascón blamed the “system” for the murder of Avant, without mentioning his own lenient policies. When he took office in late 2020, Gascón promised to enact so-called criminal justice “reform,” which has included a refusal to prosecute a range of crimes such as trespassing, resisting arrest, drug possession, and making criminal threats.
His policies have also eased sentences for murder suspects, including a refusal to seek the death penalty. Like some other progressive D.A.’s around the country, Gascón received campaign funding from the networks of billionaire George Soros.
Homicides in the city of L.A. surged to their highest level in 15 years in 2021, the first year of Gascón’s tenure as county DA.

The recall effort is seeking to collect the nearly 580,000 signatures needed to trigger a recall election. If successful, a recall election would likely appear on the November 2022 ballot. It is at least the second recall effort against Gascón; a first one fell short.
The current campaign has received a boost following a case involving the 2014 sexual assault of a ten-year-old girl by a transgender individual. The defendant, who pleaded guilty, will likely only serve a short sentence due to Gascón’s maneuvering.
Gascón has reportedly become so politically toxic that even his supporters are staying mum. “Nobody wants to be out front on this,” an industry insider told Los Angeles magazine.
