Recall Launches Against Soros-backed DA Pamela Price in Oakland
Breitbart ^ | 08/16/2023 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Activists officially filed a recall against Alameda County, California, District Attorney Pamela Price, who was backed by left-wing billionaire George Soros in a failed 2018 bid, and has allowed crime to soar in Oakland since winning her election in 2022.

Soros, who has funded radical prosecutors across the country, spent hundreds of thousands of dollars backing Price in 2018. She won in 2022 and immediately backed “criminal justice reform” of the kind that has upended law enforcement around the country.

Known for its “progressive” left-wing policies, Oakland embraced the “Defund the Police” movement when it began during the Black Lives Matter protests and riots of 2020. Then-Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf told a meeting of Democratic mayors in June 2020 that it was not enough to “defund the police,” but that it was also necessary to “replace the police.” That month, Oakland abolished its school police department. In February 2023, newly-inaugurated “progressive” Mayor Sheng Thao fired Oakland Police Department Chief LeRonne Armstrong, who had been critical of police budget cuts; he is suing her for wrongful dismissal.

A recall is a good idea only if a qualified replacement exists. Don’t put it past the ignorant voters in alameda county (and I include UC Berkeley among the ignorant) to replace the current Soros acolyte with another one.

"How long are you people in CA going to let this crap continue?"

How long is America going to keep electing and appointing these angry black women socialists for mayors, district attorneys, judges and other bureaucratic positions they have no business in such positions

This nation as well as many others have become RACE SCARED!

You can call me a racist if you want. However, keep in mind many of the people I look up to are black.

Soros’ goal is to dismantle/take down America, specifically white America.

It’s part of his capo guilt.

People just don’t care enough to study the candidates and vote. They’re getting what they deserve. Unfortunately, a lot of other people who did care are swept into the abyss with those who don’t give a damn.

Betcha she doesn’t have a problem persecuting White Republicans, whatever few are left in Alameda County.
