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.  Follow Doomloop Dispatch on X: http://x.com/doomloopdispInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/doomloopdispatchBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/doomloopdispatch.bsky.socialTik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@doomloopdispatchYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DoomloopDispatchPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/DoomloopDispatchSOURCESLurie asks Trump not to send National Guardhttps://www.sfchronicle.com/us-world/article/lurie-trump-call-federal-immigreation-21116264.phphttps://sfstandard.com/2025/10/22/customs-border-protection-alameda-coast-guard/Clash with protestorshttps://sfstandard.com/2025/10/23/bay-area-protest-surge-federal-agents/How to handle ICE Raidshttps://www.instagram.com/p/DQItUm4jL-t/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==Jackie Fielder going after Lurie Admin over contracthttps://missionlocal.org/2025/10/s-f-supervisor-calls-probe-mayor-5-9m-permitting-deal/Armstrong just lost his lawsuit.https://oaklandside.org/2025/10/21/oakland-police-chief-leronne-armstrongs-whistleblower-lawsuit-dismissed/Doug Martin’s deathhttps://www.ktvu.com/news/doug-martin-nfl-oakland-burglary-medical-emegencyFailing to approve Police Commissionershttps://x.com/oak_observer/status/1981078848302149835?s=46
