Danielle Rabkin ripped the city government and California Gov. Gavin Newsom after the city streets were cleaned ahead of Chinese President Xi Jinping’s visit for APEC.
A San Francisco small business owner shared frustration with the city government and California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom after a thorough cleanup was ordered ahead of this week’s APEC summit.
The city has undertaken a significant effort to glam up streets ahead of a vital U.S.-China meeting, including the removal of homeless camps around the city.
«At first I thought… the media was making a way bigger deal out of this than it needed to be,» CrossFit Golden Gate gym owner Danielle Rabkin told «FOX & Friends First» Tuesday. «Of course, we needed to clean high-security zones. But then I realized they were cleaning outside those high-security zones. And then that Newsom clip surfaced, and it was abundantly obvious that they were cleaning because of optics and not security.»
Newsom admitted to the cleanup Friday at the unveiling of a new program to plant trees in urban neighborhoods.
