Oakland's progressive DA Pamela Price says those funding recall campaign against her are filled with 'hatred and racism,' after violent crime soared 21% in dying California city

Oakland's district attorney has vowed to fight against the 'hatred and racism' as she faces a possible recall vote after just 14 months in charge.

Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price is under pressure over the soaring levels of crime in the dying Bay Area city.

But she claims the campaign against her is being 'financed by billionaires who have no interest in public safety', according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

'I plan to push back against the hatred and racism that they have brought to Alameda County,' Price said on Friday following a panel with other county prosecutors at the University of California, Berkeley.

It comes after she was accused of regularly dubbing 'the media and the Asians' as her enemies in a bombshell $1.5 million legal filing.

Price, who was previously a civil rights lawyer, became the county's first black district attorney when she was elected in 2022.

She promised to reduce sentences for defendants under the ages of 25, crack down on police misconduct and end mass incarceration.

But a campaign has been launched to recall her and its sponsors submitted 123,000 signatures to county election officials on Monday.

The county's Registrar of Voters has 10 days to decide whether the petition includes at least 73,000 valid signatures to put the question to a vote.

More than $2million has been raised to remove Price from office and the largest donation was $390,000 from Oakland resident and financier Phillip Dreyfuss.

The panel at the event was hosted by former San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin who was recalled by voters in the city back in 2022. He was also accused of being soft of crime.

Boudin claimed he looked to 'decrease reliance on incarceration as the primary response to social problems'.

Well Price, you did you job so well that the boy Governor had to send 120 CHP officers and State attorneys because you wouldn’t do your job or support the city police officers who tried to do theirs. Just resign ok? If nothing else, you failed, and spectacularly so. Congratulations on your world class incompetency.

Another “strong black woman” who is an absolute, abysmal failure. The country is filled with them. They all have grossly inflated egos and sense of self-importance. We are way past time for comeuppance of these horrible racist grifters.

The minute someone screams *Racism!* over some perceived slight or criticism, you KNOW.

I never want to live anywhere that a black female is the law. Don’t plan to ever drive through one of those areas either. When going to the mountains I always drive out of the way to avoid having to go through Fulton County (Atlanta).

She (if that’s the correct pronoun) is a puppet of George “The Jewish Nazi” Soros.

'financed by billionaires who have no interest in public safety'

Just bring bogus charges against them, and steal their money.

It's all the rage, now.

We should stage a prediction contest here...Oakland in 2030, SF in 2030, and NY City in 2030.

Over Oakland in six years...I’ll predict that city population drifts down from 433,000 to around 390,000. About a quarter of today’s businesses in the city will be shutdown. At least one noted gang ‘boss’ will be voted onto the city council by that point. And, city fire-and-rescue will be gutted by one-third to save on expenditures.

More like 340,000. All the whites will leave and Oakland will become a business desert except for corner liquor stores and payday loan shops.
