Trump yesterday told all those Generals and Admirals that the U.S. is at war against internal enemies, all of whom (it turns out) are in blue cities. Oakland is right up there on his enemy list, along with L.A., Chicago, D.C., Chicago, San Francisco, Memphis and many others. He and his stooge, Hegseth, told them to get ready for combat.
There are so many forces intent on crushing OPD, we need a database to keep up with them
I’ve referred to Rajni Mandal here several times and I gladly do so again today because he’s become an invaluable source of information for me and, thus, for you. Citizen Rajni, let me remind you, independently and indefatigably covers the meetings of the Oakland Police Commission, and reports on his findings. I find myself utterly relying on his reporting and I trust him 100%. His analyses are spot on.
Why can’t OPD crack down on sideshows and dirt bike parades?
The myth of the “most vulnerable”
Years ago the left came upon a useful new term: “the most vulnerable.” The use it to describe a portion of the population they purport to represent. Definitions vary, but it’s most often poor people and people of color, including Latinos. The left also sometimes includes sexual minorities, Third World inhabitants, children, drug addicts, the homeless, the mentally ill, the elderly, immigrants, and people with disabilities. Obviously, these categories can and do overlap.
What you can do to help our cops
This is a link to a petition started by our friend Rajni Mandal, who monitors the Oakland Police Commission. The petition demands an end to the federal Negotiated Settlement Agreement, which as most of you know has been in effect for more than twenty years. Under the NSA the Oakland Police Department has lost its independence and much of its ability to ensure our public safety, all because a certain greedhead named Robert Warshaw, who runs the NSA, keeps finding excuses to keep OPD under his heel. Of course, Warshaw’s $1 million annual salary may have something to do with that!
