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.

Tulsi Gabbard released hundreds of pages of previously undisclosed communications that reveal Dr. Anthony Fauci steered the intelligence community away from investigating U.S.-funded coronavirus research in China that may have caused the COVID-19 pandemic. https://t.co/1KiizPRJP2

[Rand Paul @RandPaul]

On her way out, @TulsiGabbard dropped bombshell documents proving Dr. Fauci colluded with a politicized intel community to bury the lab-leak truth and lie to Congress. I've referred him to the DOJ multiple times for prosecution.

The evidence keeps mounting, but more will be coming soon.

We were told we'd be shot by ICE, we never saw them
We were told the police would be tough, they partied with us
We were told the Americans didn't want us, they embraced us like family

Stop listening to the 'media' trying to divide us! live your lives and make memories! 🧡

Senator Randy Fine had a strong response to Vice President JD Vance’s comments:
“The Vice President’s remarks were disgusting.
The State of Israel was not created by the United States, nor is it funded by it — except to a very small degree. It was born in blood and tears by the Jewish people directly out of the Holocaust.
Vance would do well to retract his words and go study history.”

Very true. Thank you for saying this @newtgingrich!

Every Woke Reich podcaster who called Trump a pedophile and said Israel was a pedophile haven has nothing to say about the Pakistani Muslim grooming gang report out of the UK…

It tells me everything I need to know about who funds the Woke Reich and their push to destroy America.

[Iris @streetwize]

John, one of the reasons your work matters so much is that it is grounded in facts, military expertise, and intellectual honesty rather than slogans. In a world flooded with propaganda, your voice remains a rare source of clarity. Thank you for consistently defending truth and context.

@SpencerGuard This was sent to me by members of our extended family who live in Beirut They knew exactly when the attack was going to occur because they were notified by the IDF and they had NO FEAR of becoming collateral damage because the IDF is so precise .

[John Spencer @SpencerGuard]

To be very clear: reality is very different from the rhetoric. The IDF takes extraordinary measures to mitigate civilian harm in Lebanon. In fact, as in Gaza, it employs more civilian harm mitigation measures than any military in past or current operations.

The IDF issues evacuation warnings through multiple channels including text messages, phone calls, voicemails, flyers, radio, television, and social media. It operates dedicated civilian harm mitigation cells, tracks civilian presence through drones, cell phone data, and other ISR capabilities, and uses rigorous targeting processes that include legal reviews and proportionality assessments for any planned strikes. Legal reviews at lowest tactical level, and with the ability (which happens often as well as command decisions not to strike based on all context) to override commander decisions, unlike any other military.

In southern Lebanon, these measures are particularly effective because civilians can move away from military objectives and active combat areas.

Even in Beirut, the IDF has repeatedly provided warnings identifying specific buildings that will be struck and when. The warnings have proven so reliable that Lebanese citizens and journalists have set up cameras in advance to record the strikes. When targeting Hezbollah senior leaders, command meetings, or other military objectives in densely populated areas such as Dahiyeh (the Hezbollah controlled neighborhood of Beirut), the IDF relies on precision-guided munitions, small diameter munition (warheads with less explosives), and other low collateral damage munitions, detailed intelligence, and other methods designed to limit collateral damage while achieving the legitimate military objective.

There is also no equivalency. Israel does not intentionally target civilians. Hezbollah is a U.S.-designated terrorist organization whose strategy includes deliberately attacking civilians. Hezbollah launches rockets, missiles, and drones at civilian communities in northern Israel (daily, despite any cease fires), targeting homes, schools, businesses, and civilian infrastructure.

One side conducts legal reviews, proportionality assessments, civilian warnings, and precision strikes against military objectives. The other is a international designated terrorist group that intentionally places military assets among civilians while deliberately targeting civilians.

Every word of this is true. John has studied this war comprehensively.

He has been in the tunnels.

He understands the reality of what is happening.

You can definitely learn a thing or two by reading and following him 🫡🇺🇸

I am a lifelong Democrat who served in the Clinton administration and as a United Nations Human Rights Officer in Cambodia.

As a New Yorker, let me say this loud and clear:

Zohran Mamdani is an extreme bigot who is cynically stoking hostility toward New York’s Jewish community for political gain.

His words and actions are aggressively inciting violence and will lead directly to unnecessary deaths.

🚨WATCH: Trump on Netanyahu, during the Airforce 1 acceptance ceremony:
We have a great relationship with Israel. Bibi Netanyahu is a warrior prime minister. We need to acknowledge him for that and give him the credit he deserves.

Our 10 days in the Midwest come to a close. Now we move on to Texas for the next part of our great US World Cup Road Trip 🇺🇸

Things I’ve learnt along the way:

- Your weather is not to be messed with
- Your sunsets are stunning
- Your beer is fantastic
- Your barbecue is delicious
- Your scenery is beautiful
- Folk have STRONG opinions on barbecue and gas prices
- Biscuits and gravy are definitely
NOT scones and mushrooms

But above all… the people are amazing, true salt of the earth folk and remind me of back home in Yorkshire (a high compliment)

Thank you Midwesterners 🤍

Marco Rubio: "Every single problem in the Middle East traces straight back to Iran. Hezbollah? Iran. Shia militias destroying and threatening Iraq? Iran. Hamas? Iran. The Houthis? Iran. Assad slaughtering people in Syria? Iran. This regime has killed thousands and thousands of people."

Rubio really wanted to get rid of this terrorist regime, not hand them a deal.

WISCONSIN, THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, and JUNETEENTH are inextricably bound & the common denominator is FREEDOM. Read why I will always celebrate on Juneteenth how Wisconsin & the Republican Party were catalysts for the USA becoming a more perfect union.

[Seth Dillon @SethDillon]

Good exchange here. And yes, good for Allie for bringing up the other extreme because he wasn't going to acknowledge it. And that's because his friends are part of problem, blaming Jews/Israel for every evil. He seems to only want to challenge the people who think that's wrong.
