CBS News: Former chief of staff for Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao alleges pay-to-play schemes
"Webb accuses Thao's boyfriend Andre Jones of being the mastermind and running pay-to-play schemes during Thao's campaign for mayor and after she won.
"I had found out that Andre, her boyfriend, was promising people jobs in our administration, promising people appointments on different commissions and boards." said Webb. "I definitely believe that, out of the mouth of the people that told me, they were promised positions, they were promised board positions. And [they would always say] Andre, you know? That's who they would say, 'Andre promised me this.'"
"Webb claimed Jones was controlling and calling the shots. She said Thao went along with him."

A dramatic increase in crime has also quieted Democrat support.
"In Oakland's case, the city has been rocked by violent crime in recent months, including murders, which have soared from 78 in 2019 to 126 last year.
"Crime overall increased by 18 percent in 2023 with property crime up 17 percent and violent crime up 21 percent.
"And in the first four months of 2024, residential robberies soared by 118 percent on the same period last year.
"Staggeringly, one car per every 30 residents was also stolen in 2023."

I'd like to know who to believe in Oakland city politics right now. Had I been registered in Oakland, I would've voted for Loren Taylor. And yet, he seems like a business-as-usual guy. Not sure how much to believe out of the current Mayor right now, but up to last week, I didn't think she was as bad as, say, the DA. Her (former) chief-of-staff seems a little bit too eager to "tell it like it is".
One thing for sure, when you're the mayor of a city and there's a crisis (of any kind, even personal), you don't hole up for four days. You put yourself out there and try and lead.
Prosecutors' union backs recall of Alameda County DA Pamela Price
https://www.sfchronicle.com/eastbay/article/prosecutors-union-backs-recall-alameda-county-da-19539682.php
"She added that she believes the "last straw" for the union was her office's court-ordered review of all 35 death penalty sentences in the county after her office found notes that showed prosecutors in a 30-year-old case had excluded Jewish and Black people from the jury. "*
*I'm surprised she would even mention this in light of the fact the Supreme Court of California affirmed the conviction in that case last week:

No expert here, but I don't think it's wise to plug a structural deficit w one-time funds. And to lose control of such a prime site.
BTW, the black-owned sports group leading the effort may be involved in two lawsuits. One alleges a key player set up a new entity to cut out major owners. I don't think the NFL will bring back a team for Oakland when they failed over decades to secure the Raiders, and with the city in shambles.

I like Oakland, but it seems to be in a death spiral. You can't keep businesses there with out-of-control crime. Restaurants and hotels closing. Colleagues visited recently, and I don't think they'll stay in Oakland again.
I'd clean up JLS and Lake Merritt shopping areas, and try to figure out a collaborative way to remove 15,000 abandoned / stripped cars. But that also entails reducing the inflow (thefts), yet OPD is understaffed. Law and order is a basic need to right the mothership.
Grand Lake Kitchen a good spot for eats.

The Dark Truth Revealed: How Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao used deception and racism to manipulate her way into office…

Did Sheng Thao learn how to do all this while she was at Cal?
1. It has been proven that Sheng filed paperwork to run for Mayor after the filing deadline.
2. The Oakland City Clerk reportedly back-dated the time stamps on Sheng Thao's filing paperwork to give it the appearance that it was filed on time.
3. The City reportedly illegally deleted all video evidence from inside and outside City Hall on the day that Sheng filed.
4. Prior to the November 2022 election date, the City of Oakland Ethics Commission received a complaint regarding the late filing, but reportedly failed to respond nor take any action.
5. One week prior to the election date, Andy Duong (now under FBI investigation along with Thao) attended a Sheng Thao campaign event and illegally conspired with Mario Juarez by paying Mario a total of $70,000 to create a racist negative campaign ad against her opponent, Loren Taylor, a Black man. The ad, which darkened Taylor's skin and made his eyes red, contributed to his loss by only 677 votes.
6. During the count of ballots, the County Registrar of Voters (ROV) disqualified over 3,000 Rank Choice Voter ballots that were received from predominately black neighborhoods in Oakland. The ROV refuses to indicate why those ballots were disqualified.

If police take 9 hours to respond to this, nothing is safe and it makes living and owning something there scary.
Honestly, if the owner or employees had just shot them all, and nobody innocent had gotten hurt, I'd be fine with it.
If I end up having to give up my Progressive membership card because of views like this, so be it.

Hispanics / South Pacific Asians and Arabs taking on white Amerikkkan pathology is the problem you see here … Intended/unintended consequences of policy decisions + gentrification.
Police (slave catchers) don't know how to police non Black bodies. And most of the cops are them primarily so unlike black cops trying to please their white co workers and supervisors. They don't give a F. The police can't stop policy/poverty they can't fix it either
This was easily avoidable…
