Scott Wiener, who recently won the Democratic primary to replace retiring Rep. Nancy Pelosi in San Francisco&#8217;s 11th congressional district, was confronted by pro-Palestine activists and chased out of a &#8220;Trans March&#8221; in Dolores Park on Friday by activists upset over his support for Israel.  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2026\/06\/27\/us\/scott-wiener-trans-march-gaza-video.html\">The New York Times reports<\/a> Weiner was &#8220;on his way to a Pride Shabbat service led by a trans rabbi.&#8221;  Wiener, who is gay and Jewish, was at first condemned by pro-Palestinian, leftist organizations for not calling Israel&#8217;s war in Gaza a genocide, and <A href=\"https:\/\/holocaustcenter.jfcs.org\/joint-statement-on-senator-scott-wieners-usage-of-the-term-genocide\/\">was condemned by Jewish groups<\/a> when he gave it and used the term.   &#8220;I think your legislation on trans issues, specifically protecting queers on the sex offender registry, is fantastic&#8230; but I think your policy on the genocide in Gaza is terrible,&#8221; an increasingly angry person named Dimitry Yakoushkin said, following him through the park. &#8220;I think you don&#8217;t belong here.&#8221;  &#8220;You&#8217;ve been wonderful for trans people, and you&#8217;ve been terrible for Gaza. You do not belong here anymore,&#8221; he said. &#8220;How could someone like you do this to San Francisco?&#8221;  &#8220;How could you betray queers? How could you oppress people?&#8221; he said.    Another person adds, &#8220;You stopped being queer the minute you started supporting Israel.&#8221;  As I walked through Dolores Park to participate in a trans-led Pride Shabbat service in connection with the trans march, a group of people began screaming at me, ran up to me, surrounded me, and began harassing me, both verbally and physically, including physical contact,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Scott_Wiener\/status\/2070954501608247606?s=20\">Weiner tweeted afterwards<\/a>.  A few days earlier, Weiner was confronted at a different event:   <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">San Francisco (June 24) &#8211; Leftist lawmaker <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Scott_Wiener?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@Scott_Wiener<\/a> was aggressively accosted in the Mission district by a far-left extremist demanding he chant Free Palestine. The demand mirrors how leftists and liberals hounded people to support BLM in 2020, or to wear masks. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/eQP1QvS5sz\">pic.twitter.com\/eQP1QvS5sz<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Andy Ngo (@MrAndyNgo) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MrAndyNgo\/status\/2071046488692507108?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 28, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>  The California State Democratic Party condemned this as &#8220;unacceptable,&#8221; while Weiner called it &#8220;physical intimidation and harassment&#8221;:   <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Statement from the <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CASenateDems?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@CASenateDems<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/calgbt?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@calgbt<\/a> on the harassment of Senator Scott Wiener. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/5tTcsLJwAh\">pic.twitter.com\/5tTcsLJwAh<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Senator Monique Limon (@MoniqueLimonCA) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MoniqueLimonCA\/status\/2070961271701373076?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 27, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>  <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Senator Wiener&#8217;s Statement on Physical Intimidation and Harassment of Political Leaders<\/p>\n<p>SAN FRANCISCO \u2013 In two separate incidents this week, Senator Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) was harassed, threatened, and physically intimidated while attending public events to engage with\u2026<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Senator Scott Wiener (@Scott_Wiener) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Scott_Wiener\/status\/2070954501608247606?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 27, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/video\/2026\/06\/28\/california_state_senator_running_for_pelosis_seat_chased_out_of_trans_march_over_gaza.html\">RealClearPolitics Videos<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>California state Sen.
