Richie Greenberg is a political commentator and opinion columnist whose work appears in the New York Post, California Post, the California Globe, and other outlets, and a frequent guest commentator on Fox News, Newsmax, KFI 640 AM Los Angeles, KABC Radio LA, and various podcasts. Greenberg brings an insider’s perspective—and a distinctly sharp, critical, and often witty voice—to city governance, public safety, and policy reform. Drawing on firsthand political experience, he cuts through the usual talking points with snarky precision to examine what’s working (and what isn’t) in major American cities.
Greenberg is a longtime San Francisco resident and experienced voice on urban issues. A native New Yorker who has called San Francisco home since 2001, he ran as the Republican candidate for mayor in 2018. Greenberg has been actively involved in local civic efforts, including launching the grassroots campaign that contributed to the successful 2022 recall of District Attorney Chesa Boudin. He also opposed the 2020 ballot measure seeking to lower the local voting age to 16 and led the successful “BREEXIT” initiative against incumbent London Breed's leadership ahead of the 2024 mayoral race.
Greenberg is also a recurring guest on India's leading English-language news networks - Republic TV, Times Now and WION. He regularly joins prime-time debates and high profile interviews, placing him in front of tens of millions of viewers across India and beyond, debating U.S. politics and U.S.-India relations, in high-pressure, adversarial formats.
