S1 Ep 7474. The right keeps creeping into the San Francisco Bay Area
EWelcome to another episode of the Doomloop Dispatch, the news show covering the worst parts of the San Francisco Bay Area. In this episode, Kevin and D Scott discuss the right wing continuing to make its way into the Bay Area. President Donald Trump might’ve pulled back on sending the national guard to San Francisco (thanks to tech CEOs and Mayor Daniel Lurie’s groveling) but they’re still showing up in Alameda. Also, the Oakland City Council is doing the Oakland Police Department favors, despite the recent, suspicious death of Doug Martin.
