Actually, it not just this Mayor who has taken down Oakland but go back to 1991 and counting. The city of Oakland has had over 30 years of poor leadership and she might be the straw that broke the back of the city. But this has been building for years. Cities can absorb an incompetent Mayor but over 30 years of poor decisions will take you out. For example, here is a list of incompetent Mayors for Oakland: They are as follows: Eilhu Harris, (1991), Jerry Brown (1999), Ronald Dellums (2007), Jean Quan (2011), Libby Schaaf (2015), Sheng Thao (2023). This list comprises 31 years of poor and absent leadership in the city of Oakland. Sheng Thao is one of many. Oakland loss 3 sports teams and now they have none and business both small and large are leaving and or folding. Oakland has had the Riders Police a Rogue Police force in it which has led to the police department needing policing. Come on people!
All the more reason for the honorable law-abiding citizenry (including public servants) to actually stand up and challenge them. What are you supposed to do act in secrecy and then commit a conspiracy against the government? That's even worse.
She wasn't under investigation the house was according to her lawyer. Who would have ever imagined that politicians are corrupt? (sarcasm folks). has anyone else seen which political party runs the gambit on this market?
As an Oakland native I liked the mayor's press conference. The idea that the FBI would coordinate with local groups to take an adversary down is not so far fetched when you know the history of the FBI.
First of all, to be raided is not necessarily to be guilty. Second, she's made a lot of enemies. The timing of the raid is not coincidental. Third her former lawyer did her a disservice; he should have recognized that she was going to have to show some leadership and at least partially speak up on some of the issues that have been going on the last couple of weeks and helped her to find a way to address things. He was just in it to use the profile of the situation to advance himself. Fourth, she's been way in over her head since she was elected.
@@peterkilbridge6523 They gave 40+ million for those that haven't. I'm from Florida and she's been in the news constantly here for some time. Sharing a border with Alabama. I believe you since the media in and from NY has a strong reputation of lying by omission or gaslighting.
@@peterkilbridge6523I live in Mississippi but work in Alabama; I’ve been watching this clown show unravel since she was raided. I may live in the middle of nowhere (by choice) but I’m well aware of what’s going on in our country & the horrendous state of our political system. It’s filled with people just like Sheng Thou.
@Forbes Breaking News forgot to mention Judge Brenda Harbin-Forte was ousted from the Police Commission because she was making it hard for them to do their work. She was all upset because the mayor fired old Police Chief for running the OPD so poorly, Federal Monitor recommended some action to address his concerns. Judge supports Old Police Chief and etc.
Her "partner" is part of a "family business" that is worth "hundreds of millions of dollars" and has "about three hundred employees". Nothing shady about that.
As long as you are Chinese, you will be under scrutiny, and China will not leave you alone, often involving you in their activities. The involvement of the FBI suggests that she overstepped in a way that drew serious attention. Playing the victim in the press will only make things worse. It's well-known that some people living here still harbor negative feelings towards us, so taking precautions is necessary.
what happen to the 100 million dollars that the mayor approved to fix the pot holes ( in the streets ) in Oakland a few years back.... why the streets still have hella pot holes ? where did the money go.... Oakland, California
Is it possible if I can join in to meet with Judge Brenda Harbin-Forte and Cat Oriel to talk about the FBI raid on Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao's home and her response. I want to learn more about what let to Mayor Sheng Thao's corruption.
For all we know she was setup to be a patsy. There's so much corruption running rampant in California starting at the top but her partner's family appears to be in some shady stuff.
Raid? …they served a warrant, the ATF killed that man during their raid, during her little thing, they probably apologized for getting dust on the carpet
Judge , is this a fake recall signature? I beg you all , my wife daughter married a Black Lives Matter, 3 black kids , we are family., okay. The shooting and killing , and city budgets crisis deficits please don’t blame the mayor , it’s outlaw gangsters. Can we wait until the mayor term over by November of this year year.. than you may put a black mayor there after she gone.. did the mayor stole all people business, did she has any $$$, or did the cws vietnames gave extra cash? I love you All as God loved all citizens of Oakland, rev Paul xiong
How much she got donated over her whole campaign? May be 30 thousands dollar, that is only about NOT even couple months of her salary. TRUMP got about a billion dollar raised/donated since he started his presidency, *a billion dollars?* 1,000,000,000 - 30,000 = *999,970,000*
Is anybody else tired of these Corrupt Devils ?
I am. So corrupt!🤬

The bureaucratic level is worse.
Get rid of the D. A. too!
The FBI kicked down her door in the middle of the night and she has no idea why they were there? 😂 because you’re corrupt, that’s why they were there.
they went to her house in the morning and knocked on the door. What you describe did not happen. pls correct your wrongful statement.
She’s so crooked …stealing from the very community she is supposed to be helping ….disgrace hats off to this lovely lady for speaking up 💯
Whyte conspiracy
God bless you Judge Brenda Harbin-Forte!
The whole state is embarrassing.

So Lionel Wilson was the best Mayor of Oakland?
@SeekingGreetings I am just providing the last 5 Mayor's as an example that Thao is one of many.
Jerry Brown was competent. The rest of them were clowns.
@fixpacifica jerry brown did not understand how to deal with Oaklands criminal element in the city.
She's lying like a rug
Probably not a great idea to hold a press conference and challenge the feds to find something on you.
All the more reason for the honorable law-abiding citizenry (including public servants) to actually stand up and challenge them. What are you supposed to do act in secrecy and then commit a conspiracy against the government? That's even worse.
YOUR SOUL IS MINE! Ya'll wrong for that thumbnail...
Must be taking lessons from Dalton’s Super Mayor.
Birds of a feather
mayor needs to learn she is not above 👆 the law mayor needs to be held accountable for breaking the law
This is literally a small version of what's happening to our whole country! Cali is a complete mess as it should be since this is what they voted for
That could be said for many states
Overwhelmed as a mayor and now targeted by the FBI like being a Republican politician!
Usually, if someone says it’s a conspiracy theory to try and discredit the truth
She's lying Mayor 😢
The sound quality on this is horrible.
Vietnamese mafia
Sheng Thao, just like Dolton, Illinois mayor Tiffany Henyard.
She wasn't under investigation the house was according to her lawyer. Who would have ever imagined that politicians are corrupt? (sarcasm folks). has anyone else seen which political party runs the gambit on this market?
The lawyer that just quit, along with her spokesperson.
No. One. Is. Above. The. Law. Not even Democrats.
As an Oakland native I liked the mayor's press conference. The idea that the FBI would coordinate with local groups to take an adversary down is not so far fetched when you know the history of the FBI.

Nobody said it was
And why didn’t say that about Trump….. hmmmm🤔
When has the FBI raided someone innocent? 😂
Forbes videos recorded in your local basement lol😂
Is she aware how roughly 300M people see her?
300 million? I live in Upstate NY. NEVER heard of her. I'll wager Alabamans can say the same.

man those were some big big heavy boxes the FBI was wheeling around on those heavy duty dollies .i think she is up a crap creak myself.

What makes sense exactly?

There's always one.
She's innocent until proven quilty so stop the hate & blasphemy.

This is discrimination case. They just don't like majority people. No matter what you do, they don't like you if you are Asian.
You have got to be joking.
She is a failure and a corrupt one at that. The attempt to play the race card about it is just pitiful.
Y'all are crazy.
Ugh the interviewer gives bad vibes too
She's not the best but she is not the sole blame for the issues in Oakland. The woman speaking is delusional.
Black snitched and jealous, conspiracy
So what!
Your evil, your just lucky that you were appointed as a judge! Your not deserving!
