@@eddieyang1373not true. There are MANY that oppose soft on crimes policies and officials. This Mayor and the Ssn Francisco Mayor are doing horrible jobs as Mayor. Each of them also have questionable boyfriend and ex- boyfriend.
Because the people who voted her in are the same people destroying the city (with drugs, encampment, violence, crimes, grafittis, side shows, embezzlement, cancel culture, BLM, Defund the Police, no respect for law abiden citizens). She managed to allow all this and displease almost all of us.
If everything is an ongoing investigation, why even have an interview??? literally a waste of time. She just needs to step down, too much drama with her, she's adding on the problems Oakland is dealing with.
This mayor has too much drama to deal with and should step down to focus on her personal life. Oakland doesn't need to be tainted with additional troubled circumstances surrounding Mayor Sheng Thao. It's even a waste of the city's tax dollars doing this interview. Imaging how much of her mental and physical energy is spent on the FBI raid. Also, Oakland is a failed city. They need a stronger, more transparent, un-corrupt, true leader that doesn't hide in their office every day. The only time you really see a politician in public and answering questions is when they're campaigning for election. She should move on. She's holding on to her anger and ego. It's a bad look that you can see in her recent interviews. She needs a fresh start in another career. If she wants to fight back, do it without tax payers' money.

As someone born and raised in Oakland, this chic is not from Oakland and this is the primary problem. Firstly, we have to stop voting in these people who are not from Oakland, because they don’t have any vested interests in Oakland. Secondly, we have to stop voting in people who don’t have the capacity to do basic governance. We vote too many people in office based on agendas and not on their ability to do their basic job such as running the business of a City. They don’t know anything about balancing budgets, they don’t know anything about allocating resources; and it’s too much focus on special interests and political ideology. And voting these people in based on Agendas and Political ideology is the main reason why these unscrupulous people are getting into office and running these cities in the ground. If we voted for people who are actually from these cities and have lived here for a very long time, and who are actually qualified to do these jobs, about 80% of these local elected representatives wouldn’t qualify.
Oakland has always been Oakland don't matter who's in office. Some people just can't face the fact and will blame whoever's in office. Same people committing vile crimes in Oakland. Oaklander need to stop turning a blind eye and rise up together to tackle crime.
"Absolutely,absolutely."..."on going investigation"...."can't comment on that." Nothing was discovered or disclosed. She's a terrible mayor that ruined her City.
You can't answer the simple question if you have met with the FBI since the time of the raid, but you can say that you are not the target of the raid on your home and the removal of items from it. Mayor, you continue to be a "phony baloney".
Her big concern is who is funding her recall petition? That should not be on her plate. It's either going to happen or not. She either deserves it or the people will see that she is working for them. What BS. Wait, she just said, we know that there are billionaires in San Francisco who COULD be donating… So the possibility is enough for her to sling mud at San Francisco?🤬🤬🤬
They are investigating her partner and when he goes down she's going down with him. She's so corrupt every question she finds away around the questions
@@SportsDaily378 Not the worst. Libby still gets the cake so far with all the sanctuary status, BLM, diversity above merit criteria, defund the police and softness on crime. Pretty close in not answering questions.

The city has expressed considerable outrage following the dismissal of the former chief of police, highlighting a perceived lack of community support in the decision-making process. Critics argue that efforts to maintain the current state of the city are being undermined by attempts to undermine her leadership. Despite these challenges, it remains evident that the administration's actions are reflective of the will of the voters, who are now witnessing the implications of their electoral choices.
"I can't comment on an ongoing investigation" - she can't steal that 'no comment' line from the FBI, she's just stonewalling. She's trying to act transparent without explaining anything, I hope she fries.
You don’t need to know thing you need to know if they have the votes or not this is what’s wrong with the government. They need to know, but they don’t want us to know something wrong with that.
Oakland is a city of diverse communities, each contributing to its rich cultural mosaic. For the city to thrive, it requires all of us to stand together, supporting leaders like Mayor Thao who work diligently for our collective well-being. It is easy to get caught up in the negativity that often dominates the news, but we must remember that real change comes from unity and support, not division and recall efforts. Mayor Sheng Thao represents the best of Oakland. She is a leader shaped by her experiences, deeply connected to her community, and unwavering in her commitment to making the city a better place for everyone. As residents, it is our duty to support her, engage in civic activities, and stand strong together.
Don't Gaslight us .....we are not that stupid..... Crime level is very high because victims are not reporting..that Haegenber corridor lost a lot of good solid icons like In N Out burger, Dennys. and now Hilton Hotel .....you must be stupid not to see this.
Who are the millionaires and billionaires? What are their names? Did the FBI leave a copy of the search warrant at the mayor's house? Would she support the FBI/US Attorney releasing the search warrant? Why haven't any media outlets petitioned the court to unseal the search warrant? Isn't that what happened with the Trump search?
She actually can speak about an ongoing investigation because she is not the prosecutor or police. She has her way of avoiding addressing the issues. She also does not name the names of the billionaires. The reporter did not know how to handle this interview.
