- A defiant Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao, in her first public appearance since an FBI raid at her home last week, said Monday that she had been wrongly targeted by federal officials and was being undermined by "radical right-wing forces" trying to remove her from office. abc7ne.ws/3KWId9P

Man, she really shows strength by weeping like a child, and blaming everybody else.
That was a powerful speech.
Whyte conspiracy, blaming Whyte boy
With all scandals and mounting deficits Oakland facing, she still give a bunch of BS and said she won’t resign. She has one best interest in heart - herself
You can tell that she is truthful. Only snitched and conspiracy want her to resign. When you are truthful, honest, done nothing wrong and bs want you resign. That is bs from opponents
I'd get emotional too if I knew the slammer had a cell with my name on it.
@Reality_C Money Laundering.
@Reality_C Pay-to-play contract fixing
Lol democrats don't worry about that stuff. It's the tRumpers that get convicted.
Mayor- they weren’t going to let you volunteer to help them because they knew you would destroy documents if you had a heads up. And not sure what progress you think you are making in Oakland? Do you even walk outside your own house? Look around!
Self-righteous self-serving kind of like the goons in Sacramento. Promising Pie in the Sky come election season and lining their pockets under the guise of helping and protecting people
The A's left under her watch so thats something I guess lol
Things have gotten worse and worse since she’s been in office she needs to resign
Go away tRumper
Got worse because of Whyte mafia conspiracy, snitched, haters, and mastermind.
@@Juctice6969 wow 😂🤣
You can move all the black folks out and while folks in and everything in Oakland will immediately become super good I promise
Oakland is a disaster thanks to her
It was a disaster even before her.
The black community got promoted by Whyte conspiracy. They forgot about whom disrespect them.
@@Juctice6969 yes black people have been actively destroying Oakland since the "great invasion" after finally figuring out they weren't wanted in the south 100 years after the civil war
People in Oakland are a disgrace! They all are corrupted! Sheng tried to make a change and everyone resisted her and harassed her.
The last mayor did sht. The next Mayor can’t do sht. No one can fix these losers in Oakland.
Her hard work of turning Oakland into Cape Town South Africa will continue ❤
Oh yeah the FBI is just hell bent on running her out of office . Pleeeease
Why should the FBI give a criminal a heads up? Grifter
No evidence, no proof, and only evidence of snitched, jealous, hated, and mastermind
she forgot she wasn't black , and the left will declare asians as too white, and though she would get the Henyard treatment and have her crimes ignored .
Why you said that the lady helped you to be where you are now you called her a person with mental health problems?
That’s a lie and because of that you are guilty
"Rightwing conspiracy." I don't believe the right gives two craps about The Gambler or Oakland.
Agree that no right wring involved. It is the progressive democrats.
Judging by the way she talks, she is going to sue everyone behind this probably for defamation.
lol the way she talks according to her lawyer she said something that ruined her chances in court. Probably the whole " I didnt commit a crime" part after planning on having her take a plea deal. The fact the democrat gestapo got off their butts to do some work, let alone against a non white democrat woman should tell you she committed a Crime that even democrats cant ignore or wont make excuses for
Academy award!!!!
The family of the trash collection business paid for her campaign. They put her in office. This is how politics works in some cities.
LOL if it was that simple most mayor of cities would be Billionaires.
Replace her complaints of FBI political persecution with Donald Trump's and they fit perfectly.
I intend to vote for Trump for president this coming fall, and if I were to have lived in Oakland, I probably would have voted against her as a Republican opponent seems like a better choice. OTOH, I have to admit that her legal troubles seem similar to Donald Trump's legal troubles, as I sense her to be a woman who is being harassed by the FBI due to political power motivations. This is merely speculation on my part, as due process of the law MAY reveal criminal wrong doing on her part. Time should tell what is really going on here.
The mayor will read a statement and no questions will be allowed!
Mayor: 'I have a lot of questions and I will get answers, we all will get answers'
- just how stupid do our leaders think we are?
Please be fair for the true. Oakland already has a lot of issues before Mayor Sheng Thao got elected
And she added more.
No one receives advance notice of a search warrant. No one.
Biden did.
.
Can't remember when the FBI raided a home in my neighbourhood.
How much did she know and when did she know of it ?
excuses, excuses, excuses
Crazy that she was even elected in the first place.
That's California.
Whyte used her to fired black police chief, and now Whyte wanted to claim Oakland back.
liberals will vote for any minority who berates them the loudest
@@Juctice6969 lol first off the police chief should of been fired for not arresting people like you during street take overs, second she replaced him with a different black guy so the point doesn't even make sense, third it's nice to hear you admit it was taken over in the first place of course you cant figure out why after 70 years it's a terrible place to live. why do black people fear have a nice clean town with low crime lol why does that scar e you so much
I don't know anything about this woman -- she may or may not be guilty as charged -- but now's an opportune time to ask: where in the U.S. Constitution is the federal government given a jurisdiction to oversee, investigate, or prosecute local officials in the States?
Remember that they will always use a popular cause (or, invoke an unpopular figure) in order to grab more illegitimate power.
Someone there should have yelled out "Shut up ya liar!"
Jailed Whyte power, then we will find who plays with fire
When your own attorney drops you as a client because you go against their counsel, there’s a problem.
The guilty flee when no one pursues
Oakland deserves better, and desperately needs an honest and competent leader. Not one that mimics Trump by being indigent and hostile.Not a good look for Oakland.
Same thing happened to Rodger Stone
Far worse with Stone. The FBI came in with 20+ agents with guns drawn and a CNN crew alerted to catch it all.
The Oakland city is a mess. Nobody can clean the messes in a short period. There is a racism, discrimination action.
No one is better .. some want to rid of her? Why?she received 1,000 complaints daily basis? And why? Those people been fired by her return for revenge ? She spoke the truth. Don’t kick her out . She loved you all.. and God bless Oakland ..pastor Paul x
Oakland is horrible. You have done nothing. Your in shock because you got caught. Again, using the rich card.
Those weren't tears... that was acting
as much as I'm suspicious of her, I hope she doesn't take 100% of the fall, and this Andre the Grifter dude doesn't just wander off freely to find yet another Manchurian candidate for his shenanigans??
"All those responsible will be held accountable." So you are going to turn yourself in for gross dereliction of duty, for allowing criminals to run free, and for tying the hands of those who would protect the citizenry behind their backs...go directly to jail, do not pass go, do not collect $200...
She has 4 nice big houses 🏘
Its cute how you don't know who runs for political offices
God bless Mayor Sheng thao
Sheng. Why didn’t you do anything from keeping In N Out burger and Denny’s from closing at Hegenberger? If you are concerned about Oakland, why couldn’t you’ve done something about that?
Blaming the system for your crime
Sheng Thao is very amusing, playing the victim, acting clueless, pushing conspiracy theories, pointing fingers, everything she said was self serving, and walked away without taking any questions, she thinks she can fool all the people all the time.
No one will want to deal with someone under FBI investigation, and a recall. At this point she is only trying to help herself not the city of Oakland.
Tbh no one should trust the fbi either.
Just resign asap
That's tge best for you and Oakland
No one is safe in Oakland so I don't know what her point is. I'm surprised she didn't immediately think when they kicked down her door that she was simply getting robbed the same way it happens a few hundred times in Oakland
I believed her some one plugged her to remove her
Like in the movies 🍿?
You be accountable mayor!
Where’s Pamela Price ?
Damage control.
FBI don't show up for no reason. My god the trump speech.
I love her!
Didn't this gal work at a massage parlor in San Leandro a few years back?
From the beginning you lost me,your request for more money was out of line you show your true colors.
Something just feels off about her
She already knows why they raided her house. It's literally on the search warrant! She's just stalling for time saying she's gonna find out why. She's a LIAR!
Oh yes, she’s making Oakland cleaner and safer😂
breaks my heart.
Man/assault weapon reference around 05:08 - who/what is she talking about?
seriously...where'd that come from.
@@MargaretKirschner-pf7qb Read somewhere she's probably referring to Seneca Scott.
Omg finally show up 😪😪😪
I totally agreed with the mayor and sympathize with her and know the feelings of what she goes through. There is a lot of haters and they will not stop and will do anything until they bring you down. My advise is to be strong and keep your heads up and continued to do what you did for all of us. Sometimes, it's not about what parties or group, color or creed but what you can do and help all of us. It's about doing the job. 👍's up to you.
I'm genuinely curious. Do you believe this mayor has been a net positive or net negative for the city of Oakland? If positive, how has the city objectively gotten better since she has taken office?
You are the only one that wrote nice comment about the mayor. Everyone else they don't know how to write nice and good comments.
@@chaoxiong2150 do you live in Oakland?
She is just about herself.
What ring forces is she talking about?
BREAKING NEWS… her attorney just quit🤦🏽♀️this is a while entire MESS!
Get out of you I. Say we community got a clean safe enviroment
DEI is a hell of a drug.
This is not words or behavior of a guilty persom
Lock her up!!!!!!
So…it’s a plot by billionaires and right wingers those are bold choices. Good luck with that.
Terrible mayor...even worse actress
Cry Me a River honey, you make more than enough a year for doing so little. We'd be better off with Stomper the Elephant as our mayor! But he's leaving the city😢 can you tell us don't worry because we'll get our own minor league team to root for like it was some kind of fucking consolation. She should have stepped down yesterday
Woke joke
Sounding like a child...
Nothing fiery about gaslighting her failures to "rich" people attempting to recall her.
Blaming "billionaires" is her MO. Witness John Fisher. SHE broke off negotiations with Fisher and hung up the phone. Not the other way around.
Sum ting wong?
She start talking about the crime in Oakland,, and in the end she talk for her self,, yeah nice tears acting performance,,
I believe Webb. And after Thao is fired, she can move to Hollywood: her tantrum is something else 😂😂😂
Blah blah blah ... your police don't give notice to criminals before they raid.
Do you plan to give notice to criminals so they too can get rid of evidence or flee?
Mayor, are you going to go even more soft on criminals since your raid because you did not like the treatment.
Has your heart soften regarding crime??
You are a servant to the community, so, get over your pity party.
Your upbringing doesn't have anything to do with why you were raided.
Why so aggressive in your speech to Oaklanders?
There are so many inconsistencies with your agenda for Oakland.
How fat is your wallet from your unexplained corruption?
Vote democrat, it's easier than thinking... MAGA...
Whooosaaa is me
Go home, mayor. You’re drunk!
Trash
how did an asian get elected in oakland? have you ever been to oakland?
So un professional
For the love of Oakland Ms mayor, YOU will resign. Now is the right time. We no longer believe you have the courage or the capacity to be the mayor of the city that is the home of the black panther party. Please leave gracefully. Kindly & Respectfully! 🥷🏾
Please write good comment only. She deserves nice and good comments only ok.
She's a fighter. She will never gave up like that.
....and, a crook
Revote and you would lose big time
Do ma mei!!
