#DJT trolls #California by issuing #TruthSocial post disguised as brain fart #ExecutiveOrder to reopen obsolete #Alcatraz prison on island in #SanFrancisco Bay , which was abandoned for its use as a #prison as impractical after three decades of service back in the early 1960s.

Site famously occupied by #NativeAmerican protesters in early 70s, where many still hold sunrise #Thanksgiving ceremonies on the island, whose abandoned bldgs were turned into a #NationalPark that opened in 1974.

The rocky island has since become a major regional #tourism attraction, hosting over a million visitors a year who arrive via officially chartered ferry boats sent from near #FishermansWharf . So far local govt officials and many #tourists surveyed awaiting to board tour boats are not amused or impressed by bleat of #Presidential bluster fuggery.

The Crab Fleet

The crab fleet of Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco. Behind the restaurants off of Jefferson Street is the pier where the crab fleet docks. Most folks don't even walk back here, they just walk down the street looking for cheap trinkets and some fresh crab.
Back here behind the restaurants and the gift shop are where the boats dock after a long days work.
