The progressive lawmaker was surrounded Friday at the San Francisco event by masked activists dressed in black who shouted profanities and obscene gestures at him as he tried to walk away, according to the New York Post. One person filming the scene first praised Wiener for his work on trans legislation before turning on him. “You’ve been terrible, you’ve been terrible on Gaza,” the activist yelled. “You do not belong here anymore, Scott. And it breaks my f*cking heart.”

Dimitry Yakoushkin, who recorded part of the confrontation, posted the footage to X. “Scott Wiener showed up to the trans march and for the first time we kicked his a— out,” he wrote. (RELATED: ‘Doesn’t Really Matter How Gay’: Harmeet Dhillon Slams MLB Amid Federal Pride Hat Investigation)

The crowd’s anger traced back to Israel. Activists accused Wiener, who is Jewish, of backing a “genocide in Gaza” and screamed “we f*cking hate you” as he retreated, as seen in the video. One demanded, “How could you do this to San Francisco?”

The hostility followed Wiener around the city. Two days earlier, activist Jesus “Frisco Lens” Coba filmed himself confronting the senator inside the Napper Tandy Irish bar during a World Cup match, according to the Independent Sentinel. “Wiener, you gotta get the f*ck up out my hood, bro,” Coba said. “It’s free Palestine here, you already know what it is, we are against the genocide.” The clip drew more than 198,000 views on Instagram within a day.

Wiener had long resisted labeling Israel’s military campaign a genocide before changing his position in January.

The episodes come as Wiener tries to succeed Pelosi in Congress. He took a commanding lead in the June primary and will face Supervisor Connie Chan, who carries Pelosi’s endorsement, in November, according to the San Francisco Standard.
