Breaking news: Shawn Wilson admits to taking money from Duong crime family

Alameda County District 1 Chief of Staff Shawn Wilson admits to accepting $10k to “consult” for the disgraced Duong family and offer “sponsorships” on their behalf. The Duongs are currently under federal indictment for bribery and wire fraud along with the former mayor of Oakland in connection with their waste management company.

Wilson lied in the article about disclosing this conflict of interest on his form 700 as proved by county records. The press pulled the form and there’s no mention of the Duongs or their company Cal Waste Solutions.

Wilson offered me a bribe earlier this year to silence me about his office pressuring rural D1 residents into paid trash services under false pretenses. You cannot tell me these are unrelated and everything he’s been doing is on the up and up. Wilson admitted to me in his office that he comes from a trash mafia family. This guy is down to clown and everyone knows it.

Why is he not on administrative leave and why is our Board of Supervisors trying to silence the public instead of investigating??

Please Help Find My Dog

🚨 PLEASE HELP US FIND CLOUD OR FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM 🚨

Our family is absolutely heartbroken, and we are desperately asking for our community’s help.

Our beloved dog, Cloud, has been missing since the morning of Thursday, June 25, 2026, and we still don’t know what happened to him.

Cloud is a 4-year-old white Maltipoo. He is microchipped, he is a cryptorchid dog which means he has one testicle that descended and the other is in his abdomen. He was supposed to have cryptorchid neutering surgery on July 3 but he is missing. He was last seen wearing a blue harness and a cone (Elizabethan collar) while recovering. He is incredibly friendly, loves people, and would most likely approach someone if they called him.

At this point, we don’t know whether Cloud wandered away from our neighborhood on Gazania Terrace, whether someone picked him up thinking he was lost, or whether he may have been the dog involved in a hit-and-run later that morning. We are trying to investigate every possibility because we simply don’t know what happened, and the uncertainty has been devastating.

Timeline

• Around 9:00am workers from Attic Pros were at our home cleaning our attic.

• Around 9:30 AM on Thursday, June 25, my mom fed Cloud at our home on Gazania Terrace in Fremont. This is the last confirmed time anyone saw him.

• Shortly afterward, my mom left for Costco to pick up supplies for me because I had surgery on June 24 and have been recovering at home.

•While driving home from Costco, my mom came across the aftermath of a hit-and-run involving a dog along Mission Blvd., between Walnut Ave. and Stevenson Blvd., on the east (right) side of the roadway.

She saw an older man wrapping the dog in a plastic bag. She did not see what the dog looked like. He told her the dog had been hit by a car and that he planned to bury the dog in his backyard.

At that moment, my mom had no idea Cloud was missing, so she wasn’t able to ask more questions, get his information, or confirm whether the dog was Cloud.

Since then, we have been living with the heartbreaking uncertainty of not knowing whether that dog was Cloud or whether he is still out there somewhere waiting to be found.

We have searched tirelessly, contacted local shelters, veterinarians, Fremont Animal Services, and even followed up with the Fremont Police Department. Unfortunately, because the accident was never officially reported, there has been very little information available.

We urgently need your help.

If you live near Gazania Terrace, Mission Blvd that connects with Walnut Ave and Stevenson Blvd., or anywhere in between, would you please check your Ring cameras, security cameras, doorbell cameras, dashcams, or business surveillance footage from Thursday, June 25, between approximately 9:00 AM and 12:30 PM?

Even footage that seems unrelated could make all the difference.

Please look for: • Cloud leaving or walking through the Gazania Terrace neighborhood. • Anyone picking up or interacting with a small white Maltipoo wearing a blue harness and cone. • A small white dog running near Stevenson Blvd., Walnut Ave., or Mission Blvd. • The hit-and-run itself. • A vehicle stopping after the accident. • The older man who put the dead dog in a plastic bag to move it and bury it. • Any unusual activity involving a small white dog that morning.

If you were driving in that area, have dashcam footage, witnessed the accident, know someone who did, or have security cameras that may have captured anything, please contact me immediately.

Even the smallest detail—something that may seem insignificant—could finally give us the answers we’ve been desperately searching for.

Cloud is more than a pet. He is a cherished member of our family, and not knowing what happened to him has been one of the most painful experiences we’ve ever gone through.

If Cloud is still out there, we want nothing more than to bring him safely home. If the dog involved in the accident was Cloud, we simply want the truth so we can bring him home and have closure.

Please help us by checking your cameras, sharing this post, and keeping an eye out.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking the time to read this and for helping our family in any way you can. ❤️

Hayward in Pokemon Prism!

As someone who was born and raised in Hayward I was astounded when I ran into the city in the pokemon rom hacks Brown and Prism.

Those hacks came out back in the mid 2000's and both featured Hayward as a city.

July 1st parking enforcement

Update: If you live downtown or the surrounding streets, please message me for a link to the petition.

📣 Attention downtown Hayward residents!

If you park on the street because your building doesn’t have parking — this affects you.

Parking enforcement is starting back up July 1st and the city still does not have a residential permit program in place. In fact, they’ve said it won’t be ready for another 6+ months. In the meantime, they’re telling residents to use downtown city lots that are dirty, unsafe, and unsupervised. That is not an acceptable alternative.

That means you could get ticketed with nowhere safe to park — and no remedy in sight.

Please make your voice heard before July 1st:

📧 Email: parkinginfo@hayward-ca.gov

👍 Tag @cityofhayward on Facebook

The city needs to hear how this impacts real people who live and work here. Spread the word! 🙏

Help Rehoming Kittens

Hello! So, I have 11 kittens that are ready to be adopted, but I have no idea where to find homes for them. I made an IG for them, but I don’t know where to post it.
I don’t want to surrender them to the shelter because I want to make sure they find homes and have no problem keeping them until they find forever homes. I just know that a lot of sites and apps (like Facebook Marketplace) don’t allow you to list them there.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Most people who followed $CYDY remember March 30, 2021. The FDA publicly stated that CytoDyn's claims about leronlimab were "misleading and not supported by the data", no benefit was shown in COVID-19 treatment trials. The stock dropped 25%+ that day.

What happened afterward was a class action lawsuit covering investors who held $CYDY between March 27, 2020 and March 30, 2022.

A $500,000 settlement has been reached and terms are now submitted to the court for approval.

Who qualifies?

Anyone who held $CYDY during the class period and suffered losses from the alleged misrepresentations about leronlimab's effectiveness for HIV and COVID-19.

Can I still apply?

Yes, you can submit your application now and it will be processed once claims filing officially opens after court approval.

If you were damaged by this don't forget to check your eligibility. GL!
