Eunisses Hernandez – Screencap of YouTube video.
Eunisses Hernandez is a socialist city council member in Los Angeles. She makes almost a quarter of a million dollars a year and one of the public parks at the heart of her district is plagued by open-air drug use and crime.
Angry residents recently showed up at a public meeting, ready to voice their concerns, but Hernandez blew them off and didn’t show up.
If New Yorkers want a preview of their future, this is it. This is what they have to look forward to.
The New York Post reports:
Meet the socialist LA leader making $240K to reign over drug-infested park as it crumbles
Meet Eunisses Hernandez — the progressive, permissive councilwoman raking in far more money than the average Angeleno each year, plus gold-plated benefits — even as MacArthur Park, the historic heart of her district, rots into a fentanyl-soaked nightmare.
The Post spent the last week inside the park, witnessing and reporting on open-air drug use, pipe smoking, hand-to-hand deals and city-funded paraphernalia — needles, crack pipes and food handouts — being distributed in broad daylight. That scene now defines the park.
Hernandez, who makes $240,000 a year, had an opportunity to make nice with her district Thursday at a packed public meeting with the very constituents forced to live with the consequences of her policies … and she was a no-show.
MacArthur Park parents were there. Neighborhood residents were there. Local small business owners were there. But she wasn’t there.
“I need to introduce someone to you,” challenger Maria “Lou” Calanche told the crowd, hoisting a life-size cardboard cutout of Hernandez. “This is our current council member — who’s MIA.” The room erupted in laughter.
This is the elitist left in a nutshell.
$240K salary, collapsing park, open‑air drug den. Socialism in LA means elites cash in while communities crumble. https://t.co/gvWlI2p0SF

@cd1losangeles term in office has been a disaster as her district has sunk further into decline during her term. She should be studied in civics classes as an example of what grifting off tax payers looks like. https://t.co/YxEur7ctSl

$240K a year to supervise public overdoses.
LA calls that “leadership.” https://t.co/2CGs9bIIKW

That’s how socialism works in the real world. Well connected, but incompetent socialists get paid massive amounts of money while everything they touch crumbles.

This woman is collecting a massive paycheck for a ‘public service’ job. How exactly is she serving the public?
