Crime has been steadily increasing in Oakland for several months. The city is currently being led by District Attorney Pamela Price, who has received support from George Soros and is now facing a recall campaign.
Johnson embarked on a project to highlight the concerning uptick in crime rates in California and the negative impact it has had on local businesses like In-N-Out Burger.
However, ironically, Johnson and his team became victims of the very crimes they were investigating while documenting these issues.
“I Just Got ROBBED At In-N-Out Burger,” Johnson lamented on X.
I was in the car when it happened, the rest of the team was probably about 20 feet away.
A car pulled up, someone jumped out, smashed the window and tried to take a bag, I had to rip it from his hands and told him to “f*ck off” 🤣

It was my bag that was nearly stolen!
Luckily @alx was there to pry it from the hands of the thief.
Almost this exact thing happened last time I was in the area!

Well, there you go, the people of Oakland voted so they can live that way, they like the crime, because if they didn’t, they would vote responsible people into office! But they prefer criminals in office pocketing the tax funds!
As noted in the post above, you get what you vote for. Oakland voters voted for Biden and the Dems. Let’s see if they do it again. Is it bad enough yet?
