Rep. Adam Schiff, a California Senate candidate, experienced an unwelcome surprise upon his arrival in San Francisco on Thursday, reportedly falling victim to theft just hours before a lavish campaign dinner.
Kyle Becker, among other X users, blasted “radical Democrat” Schiff for falling victim to “the consequences of their pro-criminal policies.”
Fox News reports that thieves targeted Schiff’s car parked in a downtown garage, making off with his belongings. Despite being left without his business attire, Schiff pressed on to the event sporting shirt sleeves and a hiking vest, contrasting with others dressed in suits.
Schiff expressed gratitude at the dinner to attorney Joe Cotchett for his support in Schiff’s bid to succeed the late Dianne Feinstein in representing California in the U.S. Senate.
“I guess it’s ‘Welcome to San Francisco,’” joked Cotchett’s press agent Lee Houskeeper, present at Ristorante Rocca in Burlingame.
Schiff remained composed, addressing the incident during his remarks. “Yes, they took my bags,” he acknowledged, as reported by The San Francisco Chronicle. “But I’m here to thank Joe.”
Housekeeper joked, “Maybe he can go out with Willie Brown to choose a new suit from one of the many fine clothing establishments in San Francisco.”
Becker ripped the Chronicle for trying “to make light of the thievery.”
“When it comes to liars like Adam Schiff who say that crime in Democrat-run cities isn’t a real problem, the emperor now truly wears no clothes,” Becker said.
“Meanwhile, smash-and-grab robberies have exploded in California. One such robbery occurred a few months back in broad daylight in Glendale .. Critics have pointed to zero cash bail and progressive policies that have lowered the threshold to make arrests as a driving factor in rising crime rates,” he continued.
“Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass was the victim of a burglary at her home this weekend.” Becker highlighted. “ .. Radical Democrats are finally suffering the consequences of their pro-criminal policies.”
Schiff’s theft occurred shortly after an incident involving San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan’s security guard being assaulted in downtown San Jose on Tuesday, Becker also highlighted.
The Post Millennial reports that Schiff, a native of the city, has been part of California’s delegations for over 20 years, a period during which crime has emerged as a pressing concern for Californians.
Escalating crime rates in San Francisco have triggered a mass exodus of retailers from the downtown core.
This trend has seen prominent stores like J. Crew, Old Navy, and Nordstrom Rack, along with entire malls shutting down operations, per the outlet.
The severity of the situation was underscored last year when a CNN crew reporting on the rampant crime had their vehicle broken into, resulting in the theft of their equipment.
