Progressive congressional candidate Scott Wiener can\u2019t catch a break in super-woke San Francisco. <\/p>\n

The leading candidate to win Nancy Pelosi\u2019s seat\u00a0in Congress was chased away from the city\u2019s Pride March on Friday by an angry mob \u2014 a day after footage surfaced of pro-Palestinian agitator berating him inside a restaurant.<\/p>\n

A person filming Wiener walking through a park is initially heard complimenting the candidate, who is gay, on his actions on \u201ctrans issues\u201d before launching into a blistering attack.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019ve been terrible, you\u2019ve been terrible on Gaza,\u201d the person is heard yelling. \u201cYou do not belong here anymore, Scott. And it breaks my f\u2014ing heart. It breaks my heart. It breaks my heart that someone who wrote your legislation for queers is so f\u2014ing terrible on Gaza, Scott. You have anything to say?\u201d<\/p>\n

The person who posted the video, Dimitry Yakoushkin, wrote on X: \u201cScott Wiener showed up to the trans march and for the first time we kicked his a\u2014 out.\u201d<\/p>\n

As the clip continues, agitators are seen surrounding Wiener \u2014 with one sticking a middle finger in his face as he avoids engaging with the crowd. <\/p>\n

The person shouted that Wiener \u201cstopped being queer the moment he started supporting Israel.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wiener, who is Jewish, previously stopped short of calling Israel\u2019s actions in Gaza a \u201cgenocide,\u201d but changed course in January after refusing to call out Israel during a debate.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

\u201cFor 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,\u201d Wiener said at the time. \u201cTo me the Israeli government has tried to destroy Gaza and to push Palestinians out. And that qualifies as genocide.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wiener will face off against Connie Chan, a San Francisco supervisor who earned Pelosi\u2019s endorsement, in the November election for the former House speaker\u2019s 11th congressional district seat.<\/p>\n
