• Tensions boil over in District 14 debate as Hernandez accuses Wahab of 'communications with the Taliban' (pleasantonweekly.com) — Voters in a district that includes Pleasanton saw a heated Congressional District 14 debate where Rep. Aisha Wahab and challenger Melissa Hernandez clashed over Taliban diplomacy, housing, data centers, and campaign funding. The exchange turned especially tense after Hernandez implied Wahab had communicated with the Taliban, a claim she later framed as criticism of Wahab's diplomacy stance. For Pleasanton residents, the race will shape federal representation on cost of living, housing, and tech‑driven infrastructure issues.
