California Attorney General Rob Bonta has spent nearly $500,000 of campaign funds on private lawyers to navigate an active FBI public corruption investigation tied directly to his major donors.

Those donors — the Duong crime family of California Waste Solutions — are now federally indicted alongside former Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao on charges of bribery, conspiracy, mail and wire fraud. Bonta accepted over $155,000 from them and their associates over the years. When the raids hit in June 2024, he returned the money “out of an abundance of caution.” His campaign then burned through $469,000 on one of the most expensive law firms in the state.

In May 2024, disgraced political operative Mario Juarez sent Bonta a letter warning him that Andy Duong possessed a “compromising video” of the Attorney General and had a pattern of secretly recording elected officials for blackmail. Bonta’s campaign spent hundreds of thousands more in legal fees after that letter surfaced.

This is the same Rob Bonta who, as an Assemblymember, personally intervened to secure a $3.4 million state grant for Viridis Fuels — a failed biofuel company run by donor Mario Juarez, a man with tax liens, a surrendered real estate license, and a history of stiffing business partners. That same address later became his wife’s 2021 campaign headquarters.

Bonta built a sophisticated pipeline that directed over $517,000 in corporate behested payments and direct campaign funds into nonprofits that employed and paid his wife six-figure salaries. He created his own foundation, took behested money from lobbyists into it, then moved $25,000 to his wife’s organization while initially trying to hide the transfer as a “loan” on tax filings.

While positioning himself as a national leader on data privacy and suing companies for far smaller violations, his Department of Justice leaked the full personal data of more than 240,000 Californians who held concealed carry permits — names, home addresses, dates of birth, and license numbers — in what an independent review called a catastrophic institutional failure. The breach happened days after the Supreme Court’s Bruen decision, at a time when Bonta was publicly furious about the ruling.

He has used the Attorney General’s office to manipulate ballot language against tough-on-crime measures that later passed with nearly 70% of the vote, lost a 6-3 Supreme Court case for violating First Amendment donor privacy rights, and allowed foreign-linked money to influence high-profile litigation he then personally championed for political gain.

Rob Bonta is not the people’s lawyer. He is a compromised operator who has used the most powerful law enforcement position in America’s largest state to protect his donor network, enrich his family, and shield himself from accountability.

You have GOT to be kidding me…

Obama just PRAISED the “ordinary people” who have “risked their lives” standing up against Trump and ICE.

Once again fueling more violence from the left. A former president telling them their actions are encouraged.

I’m not lying when I say Obama is the root of every problem in our country.

Was Spencer Pratt’s election “loss" the final straw for Californians?

Trump DIDN'T give Iran $300 billion. Anyone saying so is LYING.

Larry O'Connor EXPOSES the media for deliberately distorting the Iran deal into a blatant, bald-faced lie.

"If you hear anybody in the media saying that Trump just gave $300 billion to Iran, just turn off the television. It is at best a distortion, most probably a complete and total blatant, bald-faced lie, and that person is doing it on purpose."

"All of the concessions, all of the end of sanctions, all of the rebuilding money and all of those things, first of all, we're not giving a damn thing to Iran, all right?"

O'Connor then explains why the money claims are COMPLETELY false.

"Anything that does happen with regard to money that Iran will have access to for building infrastructure that is laid out in the Memorandum of Understanding, none of it happens until they agree to all the other things that they now need to agree to having to do with their nuclear program. None of it happens. None of it."

He then lays out exactly what Iran LOST before this deal was even possible.

"They have no Navy, they have no Air Force, they only have 20% of their capacity to launch missiles, and they've lost all of their factories that made missiles and drones. And their entire leadership is gone."

Voting is a right afforded to citizens. If you want to vote, become a citizen. If you're undocumented you shouldn't be here. Why is this hard?

Of course, I'd say that California's should confiscate @SenAdamSchiff's California residence & sell it for the proceeds.

But, his California residence is a 1-bedroom, 1-bath condo in Burbank so he can claim CA residence.

He lives full time in Maryland in 3,400 square feet.

This is the original text of the motion to amend LA’s City Charter to grant non-citizen immigrants the right to vote in City elections, introduced by DSA Councilmembers.

It does not anywhere distinguish between legal and illegal immigrants, because they don’t believe there is one.

Neither do they believe there is a legitimate distinction between US Citizens and non-citizens. They believe equity demands we all have the same rights, gutting the fundamental meaning of citizenship.

They believe physical presence here is enough to entitle them to every benefit of being an American.
