"An alleged abuse of public resources. A mocking Facebook video. A series of unusual dramas has marked a bitter feud between the office of District 7 San Jose Councilmember Bien Doan and East Side Union High School District Trustee Van Le. Le said she will run against Doan when he's up for reelection next year - and also plans to sue him for defamation."
"Fleming sent an email on Doan's behalf to East Side Union High School District leaders - which he read publicly at a school board meeting - raising concerns that Le used community fundraising events on school property as a venue to reward political allies and shame her adversaries. He alleged Le used her board position to pressure school district staff into providing additional time and access to district facilities without proper registration or payment - and questioned whether the money raised was actually going to homeless students as publicly stated."
A bitter feud has emerged between District 7 San Jose Councilmember Bien Doan and East Side Union High School District Trustee Van Le, highlighted by a mocking Facebook video and allegations of misuse of public resources. District 7 Chief of Staff Jonathan Fleming emailed district leaders seeking a probe after an anonymous whistleblower accused Le of using school fundraising events to reward allies and shame adversaries. Fleming alleged Le pressured staff for extra access without proper registration or payment and questioned whether raised funds reached homeless students. A June 16 district lawyer said the claims lacked evidence without the whistleblower's identity. Le has threatened a defamation lawsuit and announced plans to run against Doan.
