Weird. No target, no answers, no explanation. Just dirt being thrown for no apparent reason. Shows how stupid people can be and easily manipulated in a smear campaign against anyone.
Leave the Mayor alone, it isn't her fault Oakland is going down. Oakland has a bad reputations for a long time, you can not expect her to fix Oakland's problems over night. Look closer who is doing all the crimes in the city, wake up people stop blaming elected officials for your crime problems, blame your own people.
You can frame it any way you'd like, at the end of the day it IS her responsibility. She stepped in as Mayor, raised her pay with no track record to justify it, fired the Chief of Police and has remained in hiding and has said absolutely nothing about a mass shooting.
