It's funny how paid nonprofit employees fill Oakland City Hall for public comment and people call it "grassroots". But when regular citizens pool their own money to organize, suddenly its "astroturf" 🙃

Oakland doesn’t need another new chief — we need the right one. Integrity. Accountability. Community trust. Reform that lasts. By every measure that matters, LeRonne Armstrong has already proven he’s the leader Oakland deserves. #OaklandStrongAndSafe open.substack.com/pub/lorentaylo…

Former Oakland Police Chief Kirkpatrick: Oakland is a great city with a good police force and can dig itself out of this hole, but it begins with getting out of Federal oversight and changing the police commission

JFC... I just learned that we're paying $110 per month for our trash bins while it is $50 in Emeryville and Fremont. Why is our city screwing us in as many ways as they can?!? nytimes.com/2025/10/08/us/…


Seems like the police commission and their ilk do NOT want transparency or candor.

Weaponizing Zach Bryan like this might backfire on the Dems. No one wants to feel like a pawn.

RETWEET if you stand with country singer Zach Bryan against the GOP!

It’s not about what you hate. It’s about what you love. Maybe we should govern that way across the board.

I don’t hate the Governor — but I love California. That gives me not just the right but the responsibility to make it the best it can be. (1/2) politico.com/news/2025/10/0…

🚨WOW: An Ohio farmer SLAMS Trump’s plan to bailout farmers hurt by his OWN policies…and using taxpayer money to do it: “The president of the United States is going to take my money, and give it back to me, and call it a bailout?  That's just comical.”


It’s still amazing to me that the voice of the anti law enforcement contingent in Oakland is Cat Brooks. “More cops means less safety for brown and black people.” 🤡youtu.be/xtsJutKzlSY?si…

A sure-fire way to MAKE OAKLAND EVEN MORE CORRUPT is to tell elected officials and city staff, “Don’t worry, we’ll pay your legal fees with taxpayer money no matter what crimes you commit.” We must not use taxpayer money to protect friends and political allies who commit crimes.

Establishing a performance dashboard for the City of Oakland was a core part of my campaign platform because we can’t improve what we can’t (or are unwilling to) measure. Congrats to @MattMahanSJ/ @SanJoseCA on this launch. Now it’s @Oakland’s turn! #GovernmentAccountability

You shouldn’t have to ask how your government is doing — the data should be right at your fingertips. See for yourself: sanjoseca.gov/your-governmen…

As a resident of Oakland, it seems like a valuable lesson learned - don’t take for granted what we currently have in our city. Divorces are messy.

Moving the @Raiders to Las Vegas has been a total failure - on all fronts. The only "positive" thing it did was increase the wealth of an incompetent failson who inherited (and did NOT earn) a multibillion-dollar franchise. It gave more money to an already wealthy guy. That's it.



If people in Oakland paid as much attention to city politics and news as much as they did to MSNBC or CNN, perhaps we’d be in a different situation.
