Brooke Jenkins is who Mayor London Breed appointed after Chesa Boudin was recalled last year. Breed & Jenkins are awful, and San Francisco isn’t nearly as progressive as it pretends to be, as evidenced by their recall of Boudin.

Boudin descends from a long left-wing lineage. His great-grand-uncle, Louis B. Boudin, was a Marxist theoretician and author of a two-volume history of the Supreme Court's influence on American government, and his grandfather Leonard Boudin was an attorney who represented controversial clients, such as Fidel Castro and Paul Robeson. His uncle Michael Boudin was a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, and his grand-uncle Isidor Feinstein Stone ("I. F. Stone") was an independent progressive journalist.
