Real Headline: California Provides Sex-Change Procedures to Homeless Illegal Aliens

Christopher Rufo reports at City Journal:

Last month, we received a report from a whistleblower who claimed that illegal aliens were staying in San Francisco's homeless shelters. Following up on the tip, we visited numerous publicly funded shelters in San Francisco, and spoke to employees and residents about their policies, sometimes through a translator.
We discovered not only that the shelters were housing illegal immigrants but also that they were apparently housing a population of male-to-female "transgender" illegal aliens, who had hoped to obtain "gender-affirming care." And, to our shock, state and local governments apparently are providing it.
St. Vincent De Paul's MSC-South facility is San Francisco's largest homeless shelter, and, in 2024, signed a $66 million service contract with the city. After we arrived at the front entrance, an employee wearing a do-rag and a light green polo shirt showed us around and confirmed that illegal aliens were living there.
"You got a few people here from El Salvador. . . . You got a few people here from Venezuela. You got a few people here from a little bit of everywhere," he said.
As a rule, he suggested, management instructed employees to refuse cooperation with federal immigration authorities. "When the ICE thing was going around, we all had a meeting, and they told us, 'We ain't letting them in.'"
Among the shelter's residents was a group of Hondurans who identified as transgender. During our visit to MSC-South, whose executive director did not respond to a request for comment, we spoke with two Honduran men, "Lyca" and "Alondra," who identified as transgender women. Both indicated that the local government gave them shelter and food.
Lyca, who wore long hair and red lipstick, was candid about this arrangement. He confirmed that he was an illegal immigrant and that the shelter doesn't ask questions about immigration status. "Tengo Medi-Cal," he said, referring to the state health-care program, which, under Governor Gavin Newsom, began providing "full scope" coverage to illegal aliens, which includes transgender procedures, or "gender affirming care." He said he was receiving cross-sex hormone therapy--and bore the physical signs of having done so.
Alondra, a muscular man in a camouflage shirt and dyed hair tied behind his head, said he had been in the United States after claiming asylum. According to the translator, the city government had offered to pay first and second month's rent on private apartments for him and Lyca. But neither accepted the offer--in Lyca's case, because he might not be able to pay for the apartment after the second month.
At the Embarcadero SAFE Navigation Center, a city-funded shelter on the eastern waterfront that did not respond to our comment request, we heard similar stories. "Jacqueline"--a self-identified "trans woman" from Mexico living at the shelter who claimed to be a lawful U.S. resident--indicated that there were illegal aliens living in the shelter.
Wearing rouge on his cheeks and a low-cut red shirt, Jacqueline flaunted his large chest. He said that he had gotten transgender hormone treatments, and confirmed that he had received breast implants from the state Medi-Cal program. Though Jacqueline claimed to be a legal resident, he suggested that the state also provides implants to illegal immigrants. "Even though you're undocumented," he said, "you can get them."

27 The amount of rape (of both sexes), sexual assault, prostitution, and drug dealing at these shelters is off the charts. The staff does nothing, and many are getting their cut of the action. There’s a reason many homeless refuse to go to shelters. Some are indeed insane. Some just genuinely believe they are safer on the streets.

Why? They don't own the land. Further, why would you want to give the CCP all of the bases on the coast? Because that's what would happen if you were able to kick them out.

Part of the problem is their training is shit. We grimly joke about NYPD firing 27 shots at a suspect and killing three bystanders two dogs and a pet goldfish in a kid's bedroom a block away with the suspect unscathed, but this is a hand-to-hand example of the same incompetence. Two rather sizable officers (one of whom is pretty apparently on gear) couldn't get one guy under control and cuffed for several minutes. If they spent more time on grappling and ground technique than learning how to yell "stop resisting" it would be better for cops AND safer for the person getting arrested.

It's the taxes, it's the cost of gas, it's the lack of good healthcare where I live (the big downside to this area of the central coast), you name it. Add to that a potential 'exit' tax when you move out of the state, it's all bad. I think we are living on borrowed time and once Steyer or Porter becomes governor, totally screwed.

I feel fortunate, blessed actually, to have achieved escape velocity from California before it becomes a black hole. To all of you seeking a way out, prayers that you find it. To those willing to stand and fight, prayers that you successfully turn the tide. My son will most likely be relocating back there in another year. Fervent prayers for his protection..

119 OK, so I looked up the Embarcadero SAFE Navigation Center since I worked in SF for many years and have never heard of it. It's on Beale Street right along the Embarcadero, one of the most scenic streets on the waterfront and at the edge of the financial district. It's surrounded by luxury condos and the residents weren't too happy but the city won that battle. Also read that it has the highest OD rate in the city right now. Daniel Lurie, the relatively new mayor, was supposed to be the savior in fixing the homeless problem/crisis. And I don't think it also helps that the Center calls the homeless their 'clients' and strive for a hotel atmosphere, dining room open 24/7, clothes washed for them, etc.

The company I was working for closed our data center and offered us jobs in North Hollywood, CA back in 88. None us took the offer and opted for unemployment instead. Although, I did get a very nice week long "fact finding" trip out of it. Unfortunately, I didn't find affordable housing at Disneyland, Universal Studies, Santa Monica pier and so on.

When I was a kid and the local Lockheed operation closed down in Louisiana, my father was given a 6 month temp assignment in Southern CA . At the end he could decide if he wanted a permanent position.

He chose to become unemployed in Louisiana rather than having to move to CA. That's how much he hated CA hippies.
