Oaklandside Gets No-Coal Oakland Funding From Biillionaire Kat Taylor Tom Steyer's Wife
I love this so: Oaklandside's Tasmeen Raja and Darwin Bond Graham are keen to point out the actions of those behind the Oakland Bulk and Oversized Terminal, including OBOT's favoring Ignacio De La Fuente for Mayor of Oakland, but they never bother to say who's paying them to point out these actions? Tasmeen Raja and Darwin Bond Graham, as well as Oaklandside's owner Cityside, would like for you to be complete fools and not even consider who might be paying them for jack. Meanwhile, Oaklandside's Tasmeen Raja and Darwin Bond Graham come up with silly terms like "Big Coal" that only fools in Oakland repeat - because anyone with a brain knows damn well that Oakland Bulk and Oversized Terminal developers do not make up the nations largest investors in coal mines - but Biillionaire Tom Steyer did. and given the giant shift toward coal investing, I'll bet Tom's plotting a path back that way on the down-low so his wife Kat Taylor won't kill him. Well, the truth is there, if one take the view that Tasmeen Raja and Darwin Bond Graham don't work for free, and that's certainly a view I take. So, I kept gathering information and seeking the truth they will not tell - that Kat Taylor Tom Steyer's Wife, is s major donor and has been for some time. But I'll get to that, later. First, I found that a number of Oakland City Councilmembers including Carroll Fife, Nikky Fortunato Bas, Dan Kalb, and Oakland Mayoral Candidates Loren Taylor and Treva Reid attended Oaklandside's October 28th 2022 Fundraiser produced by Oakland's donor-to-causes John Bliss. That news is posted at OaklandNewsNowBlog.com and is at a number of websites in the Zennie62Media, Inc. network. But guess what? I learned that only because it was posted at Facebook on the page of John Bliss, who's my friend. If Bliss had not done that, the world would not have known the truth about Oaklandside: that it depends on politicians in Oakland for its funding as much as anyone else. Tasmeen Raja tries to deny that truth, but photos tell the real story and so do the politicians who were at Oaklandside's fundraisers - plural. Second, Oaklandside also gets its funding from a public relations firm its loath to admit it has a relationship with: The Worker Agency. Yep. The Worker Agency is a Berkeley-based public relations firm started in 2018 and that helps get out news that favors its progressive clients. I am happy to tell you I have pushed out press release news from the The Worker Agency this year (about MACRO in Oakland), even though they've never invested in for-profit Zennie62Media Inc - they've certainly given to Oaklandside , because they said so in a 2020 Tweet repeated at Oakland News Now's post vlog on Darwin Bond Graham. (The Worker Agency on Twitter: "This year we've given ~$6,000 to local news: @MLNow, @OpenVallejo, @48hills, @StSpiritNews, ... @Oaklandside.) For me , publishing those finds about the truth regarding Oaklandside was like blood in the water: it drew the attention of sharks on Twitter, and caused me to look for more information beyond what I already had. That's what led me to think about Tom Steyer. The once large coal investor shifted his vast monies to clean energy and with his wife Kat Taylor (call them TomKat) put enough money in the pockets of various non-profits in Oakland and the SF Bay Area to turn much of Oakland's City Council (Carroll Fife has gotten TomKat's help in several ways including in the form of a PPP Loan of $70,000 from Kat Taylor's Beneficial State Bank that's now the focus of a complaint with the Oakland Public Ethics Commission) and Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf away from following through on Oakland's contractual obligation to allow the Oakland Bulk and Oversized Terminal to be built. Meanwhile Kat Taylor had estabilished a keen relationship with Cityside that goes back to 2011 when it was called Berkeleyside and held a business forum, and continues to today. The fact is Tasmeen Raja, Darwin Bond Graham, and the folks at Oaklandside / Cityside would rather that you not know about this really incestuous set of relationships that gets the more so the deeper one looks. What's clear is that, to state it again, is in the pockets of folks like Oakland elected officials and well-monied white progressives (let's be clear there's not a ton of black money in this) like Kay Taylor. If Oaklandside wrote anything in favor of the Oakland Bulk Terminal, even to report it was designed to produced low emissions, it's a fair bet their money people would bust a gut. Stay tuned.

Former Washington Redskins QB Joe Theismann sat down as a ESPN Reporter and interviewed former Dallas Cowboys Cowboys Coach Tom Landry after he returned from Europe after his release from the Cowboys organization. "The most important thing in life in what we do is to have a positive effect among the people you coach. You may not have it right then, but when they get out in their careers after football, and they come back to me and say "I understand what you were talking about when I was playing for you", that's the greatest thrill I have in football". - Tom Landry

Hey Steven Tavares & Loren Taylor, Zennie Abraham Is His Mom’s Caregiver, Not In A Basement In ATL
Hey Steven Tavares & Loren Taylor, Zennie Abraham Is His Mom’s Caregiver, Not In A Basement In ATL Someone sent me a podcast made by Steven Tavares who owns East Bay Citizen blog and Oakland District 6 Councilmember and Mayoral Candidate Loren Taylor. The person who sent it said that you all had good things to say about me. Presumably that was to butter me up to get me to vlog favorably about the podcast. Well I listened and all was good until I got a wiff of Steven’s crack about me living in my Mother’s basement in Atlanta. Then he and Loren and whomever the other person is started laughing. That was classless. Steven I have never treated you that way. But you have some real nerve. First, I am my Mom’s caregiver. She’s 88. Second, I still have my place in Oakland. Third, we’re not in Atlanta, but 50 miles outside of it. Loren, I thought you knew my situation and was expecting you to stop laughing and correct Steven. You didn’t. You know better. Don’t let someone else’s bad thoughts wash over your good sense. Say something. Don’t fear to talk. Defend your own honor. Don’t be weak. I hope both of you reach 60. I pray you both are there for your parents. Otherwise you will hear from me. Stay tuned.

Oaklandside Puts Darwin Bond Graham Out To Harass LeAna Powell To Help Oakland CM Sheng Thao
Oaklandside Puts Darwin Bond Graham Out To Harass LeAna Powell To Help Oakland CM Sheng Thao
Oaklandside's lead editor Tasneem Raja is to blame for what nonprofit “news” publication-that's-losing-money Oaklandside's Darwin Bond Graham is doing to LeAna Powell via sending harassing emails because Powell rejected Graham's initial request to talk to her. Now, who's LeAna Powell? LeAna Powell has a sad connection to Oakland City Councilmember and Mayoral Candidate Sheng Thao. Sheng Thao fired LeAna Powell because Powell refused to work as a volunteer for Sheng's mayoral campaign, and after just three months of work. Distressed over how Thao treated her, LeAna Powell filed a complaint with the City of Oakland Public Ethics Commission back in July. Powell just last week received a letter from the City of Oakland informing her that the Ethics Commission formaly started its investigation process. As to why I am vlogging this: LeAna Powell contacted me out of the blue and because she wanted to share her story with me on camera and on my Zennie62 YouTube show. Her story of how she was treated in ways that follow the classic case of psychological and emotional distress at the workplace that was Sheng Thao's office when LeAna Powell was there. LeAna Powell is going though a very hard time already. She's has a hard time at home and is trying to raise her kids while maintaining marital bliss with her husband who (in my opinion) should be far more supportive of her in all of this. Oh, and she's trying to maintain a job, too because, as she told me, she's broke. LeAna Powell does not deserve this and is an Oakland black woman who is yet another example of how the white media in the SF Bay Area gets triggered when she has a story that goes to a black media person (me) and not them. But that should not be the concern. The concerns should be these: why is Oaklandside trying to make LeAna Powell look bad for Sheng Thao? Why don't Tasneem Raja and Darwin Bond Graham look up the arrest record of Brandon Harami, the aide to Sheng Thao who delights in using social media to smear people he perceives as ememies of his boss? I would have to conclude that Oaklandside is working for another Oakland Politician, this time Sheng Thao. Since CitySide-owned Oaklandside doers not share donor records below $1,000 with the public, the media nonprofit-acting-illegally can rack up a ton of $900 contributions from Oakland City Councilmembers and let them fly under the radar. How else to explain that Oakland Councilmembers have gone to Oaklandside fundraisers, as revealed by Zennie62Media's OaklandNewsNowBlog.com? And on that, none of this is paid for by Zennie62Media Client Californians For Safe Streets / De La Fuente for Mayor of Oakland – they pays for digital placement of their videos and content. But since Oaklandside's Tasneem Raja is obsessed with the client engagement that's publicly reported, I am making sure to put that here. And also reminding you that Oaklandside does not post its full list of donors and supporters. So, it's no wonder Tasneem Raja and Darwin would harass poor LeAna Powell – it helps Sheng and Brandon just days before the November 8th 2022 Oakland Mayoral Election. So its Oaklandside doing what it likes more than anything: harassing Oakland's black folks to suit the desires of its politically-based funders. That's criminal. Call the Oakland Police, ASAP. Stay tuned.

City Of Oakland Must Avoid SPUR Recommendations Slapping A San Francisco Gov Model Because It's SF
City Of Oakland Must Avoid SPUR Recommendations Slapping A San Francisco Gov Model Because It's SF
City Of Oakland Must Avoid SPUR Recommendations Slapping A San Francisco Gov Model Because It's SF What follows is a discussion I am launching based on a little-known November 2021 document called "Making Government Work: 10 ways city governance can adapt to meet the needs of Oaklanders". The document by San Francisco Planning and Urban Research (SPUR) was done after a series of interviews with some Oaklanders (not me) and then the series of 10 recs was issued. You can see the document here: https://ift.tt/UHbTQaF My reaction be below and expressed in this livestream video room. Too much concern about Mayor and City Council without consideration for Oakland Employees who are tasked with getting the job done. We've had a generation of focus on Mayor and City Council, and nothing's improved, so we need to get out of that mental model and toward a more comprehensive one. I'm concerned that we're about to make the same cognitive mistakes. Better to actually model-out how the city works conceptually, then test various approaches within that model. The SPUR Recommendations do nothing but shift deck chairs on the Titanic and does not consider how it would work in actual practice. For example, it invites conflict between the City Auditor and City Controller. And Oakland residents care less about Mayoral Power than actual service delivery. When Kofi Bonner was Economic Development Chief and Interim City Manager in 1996-97, he came up with the "Area Teams" approach, matching service delivery to City Council District. It really improved performance evaluation and adjustment, then It was thoughtlessly scrapped. Slapping a SF model just because it's SF is completely unnecessary and Oakland is not East San Francisco. We need a system that actually improves the involvement of professionals who do service design and delivery via data collection / action. I also noticed there was no system installed to improve interaction between City Council and City Staff; the tampering rule must be eliminated ASAP. Replace it with a set of rules of engagement. Councilmembers are the city's sensors, so a connection with staff is logical. Stay tuned.

But he says he's not asking for money -- his Uber dropped him off at the wrong place and he's looking for directions to his DJ gig. Andy is speechless.
