Nice, but you’ll have to have something positive to fill the vacuum.

Things begin to shift.


Maybe, but look what happened in the U.K. and France. They looked to be shifting there.

None of us is happy that we have been sold a lie—and we are in full revolt against those at fault.

As a result, low-information voters regularly vote for familiar progressive incumbents over their pro-business challengers. I, too, voted the same way for most of my adult life.

Sheesh....

Some, like myself, are former progressives, working to reconcile our ideals with the phony progressive policies and politicians that have brought our city to a crisis point.


Not exactly sure what that means...................

Was the raid ordered by John Fisher? She seems like a better mayor than the other recent mayors, is she being punished for going up against John Fisher?

Oakland used to be a decent safe livable town with many cultural entertainment and retail choices

Now people are afraid to even drive through it lest they suffer a car breakdown or Breakin or heist
