This morning, Loren Taylor called me to concede the race. While I believe strongly in respecting the democratic voting process and ballots will continue to be counted through Tuesday, the results are clear that the people of Oakland have elected me as your next Mayor. THANK YOU,

Another example of what moderate democrats court when they move too much to center. This guy believes he isn't as bad as MAGA but talks and wants the same things. An open MAGA endorsed Loren Taylor. You can't say you are a Democrat & be associated w racism and homophobia.

I'm heartbroken by the passing of my dear friend Charles Rangel. A lion for justice, he dedicated his life to public service—fighting for civil and human rights and standing up for the most vulnerable. His legacy will continue to inspire. Rest in power and in peace, Charlie.

Our prayers and love are with the family of the man senselessly killed in a crash at 12th Avenue and East 21st Street. We wish the second person who was badly hurt a speedy and full recovery. The person who died is a treasured educator and member of our Castlemont High School

Elected leaders must be free to question federal officials. Sen. Padilla being forcibly removed from a DHS press conference limits transparency and erodes public trust in government.

As we celebrate July 4th in Oakland, freedom means having a safe place to call home, clean streets, and a city that looks out for every neighbor, including our immigrant community. It also means protecting our communities, especially during wildfire season. Let’s all do our part

Oakland has lost a true champion. Dan Siegel, who I knew for many years, a pathbreaking civil rights lawyer and dear friend, passed away on July 2nd at age 79. For five decades, Dan fought tirelessly for workers, unions, and human rights. From his early days as UC Berkeley
