Progressive congressional candidate Scott Wiener can’t catch a break in super-woke San Francisco.
The leading candidate to win Nancy Pelosi’s seat in Congress was chased away from the city’s Pride March on Friday by an angry mob — a day after footage surfaced of pro-Palestinian agitator berating him inside a restaurant.
A person filming Wiener walking through a park is initially heard complimenting the candidate, who is gay, on his actions on “trans issues” before launching into a blistering attack.
“You’ve been terrible, you’ve been terrible on Gaza,” the person is heard yelling. “You do not belong here anymore, Scott. And it breaks my f—ing heart. It breaks my heart. It breaks my heart that someone who wrote your legislation for queers is so f—ing terrible on Gaza, Scott. You have anything to say?”
The person who posted the video, Dimitry Yakoushkin, wrote on X: “Scott Wiener showed up to the trans march and for the first time we kicked his a— out.”
As the clip continues, agitators are seen surrounding Wiener — with one sticking a middle finger in his face as he avoids engaging with the crowd.
The person shouted that Wiener “stopped being queer the moment he started supporting Israel.”
Wiener, who is Jewish, previously stopped short of calling Israel’s actions in Gaza a “genocide,” but changed course in January after refusing to call out Israel during a debate.
“For those of you who saw the debate clip from last week, I want to clarify that I do believe Israel has committed genocide in Gaza,” Wiener said at the time. “To me the Israeli government has tried to destroy Gaza and to push Palestinians out. And that qualifies as genocide.”
Wiener will face off against Connie Chan, a San Francisco supervisor who earned Pelosi’s endorsement, in the November election for the former House speaker’s 11th congressional district seat.
