Yesterday @CAgovernor  @GavinNewsom called to inform me I had been granted a Pardon! From state prison to @SFAPD's Reentry Division Director, to the Executive Director of The Salvation Army's @TheWayOutSF.  Don't ever give up hope, change is possible!  RECOVERY 1st!

What do Scott Wiener and homeless drug addict encampments have in common?

They should both be prohibited from being within 1,000 feet of elementary schools. Right, Nithya?

Tehama St., SF, CA 5/28: The Fentanyl Fold will be an iconic remembrance of how we failed drug addicts, children, & the community. We’ve normalized human suffering to the point that people walk by scenes like this every day & barely look up. This is not normal or compassionate.

[T Wolf 🌁 @Twolfrecovery]

Clearly @MattMahanSJ is the best candidate the Democrats have and it's not close. But, of course, too many Dems want to cling to the establishment or have gone full radical to see the answer even when it's staring them in the face.

Yesterday, we welcomed San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan @MattMahanSJ to Hope House @TheWayOutSF he met with our team and saw firsthand how recovery, treatment, housing, and career development work together to help people rebuild their lives.

@bettersoma @Twolfrecovery The crazy part is harm reduction, the current policy, does not reduce harm - it actually enables addiction and makes things worse for the the addict and the greater community (especially children).

[T Wolf 🌁 @Twolfrecovery]

Harm Reduction is like trying to patch the holes on a sinking ship by pouring water into them.

Recovery First! @SteveAdami

[Steve Adami @SteveAdami]

@Gina_McDee @StopDrugDeaths @Twolfrecovery @JacquiBerlinn The Harm Reduction and Housing First mafia enable this bs. Two things a homeless drug addict should never have - a child or an animal.

@DrugFreeSidewlk @EricaJSandberg @kunalmodi @DanielLurie Sorry - they don’t have a medical condition substance use disorder - they’re selfish drug addicts that lie, cheat, steal, and don’t give a f**ck about anyone but themselves. How do I know? I was one before I got clean in PRISON! We can’t solve problems we’re not honest about

[T Wolf 🌁 @Twolfrecovery]

Drug addicts lie, cheat and steal. It's in the book. There's a difference between reducing stigma and whitewashing the truth. Let's just tell the truth.

Today, Mayor Daniel Lurie @DanielLurie visited @TheWayOutSF's Hope House following San Francisco’s preliminary 2026 Point-in-Time Count results, which show street homelessness has reached its lowest recorded level since 2011.

[Salvation Army SF @salvationarmysf]

Our Executive Director, @SteveAdami of @TheWayOutSF, joined leaders at American Enterprise Institute’s @AEI Solutions Summit to share what we’ve learned on the frontlines of homelessness and addiction recovery.

[T Wolf 🌁 @Twolfrecovery]

Just a reminder that part of the reason California is broke despite being the world's 4th largest economy is we gave 2 million+ undocumented immigrants full-scope medi cal health coverage at no cost to them. Not even a co-pay while we pay $1,200-$2k per month. That the truth.

[Keith Humphreys @KeithNHumphreys]

Very important lesson for Blue Cities here: Every change Lurie has made has been opposed by screaming, bullying activists -- ignoring them has been the path to policy success and extremely high popularity. @skaushik100

Our goal is simple: help people get off the streets, overcome addiction, and rebuild their lives. The impact is real. 77% of people who come through our recovery programs move on to productive, stable lives.

[Steve Adami @SteveAdami]

5/3/2026 San Francisco: The Fentanyl Fold symbolizes how radical harm reduction failed the very addicts it claimed to help! Lives lost, communities destroyed, businesses closed, children and families traumitized!

[Steve Adami @SteveAdami]

@Twolfrecovery why aren’t we arresting people for being under the influence? You can’t OD if you’re not loaded. Per HS11550, it is illegal to be under the influence of a controlled substance.
