California Attorney General Rob Bonta is investigating San Diego County juvenile halls for alleged civil rights abuses.
San Diego Police say a man's leg was severed after he tried to crawl between the cars of a freight train after it stopped on the tracks near the Convention Center. The California Attorney General's Office has opened a civil rights investigation into whether youths have been mistreated at San Diego County's juvenile hall facilities. A new building at Scripps La Jolla features one of the nation's newest and most innovative centers for new mothers and their babies. What You Need To Know To Start Your Wednesday.
All too often, capitalism is identified with the for-profit sector. However, one organizational form whose importance is often overlooked is nonprofits. Roughly 4% of the American economy, including most universities and hospital systems, are nonprofit.One prominent nonprofit currently at the center of a raging debate is OpenAI, the $300 billion American artificial intelligence research organization best known for developing ChatGPT. Founded in 2015 as a donation-based nonprofit with a mission to build AI for humanity, it created a complex “hybrid capped profit” governance structure in 2019. Then, after a dramatic firing and re-hiring of CEO Sam Altman in 2023 (covered on an earlier episode of Capitalisn't: “Who Controls AI?”), a new board of directors announced that achieving OpenAI's mission would require far more capital than philanthropic donations could provide and initiated a process to transition to a for-profit public benefit corporation. This process has been fraught with corporate drama, including one early OpenAI investor, Elon Musk, filing a lawsuit to stop the process and launching a $97.4 billion unsolicited bid for OpenAI's nonprofit arm.Beyond the staggering valuation numbers at stake here–not to mention OpenAI's open pursuit of profits over the public good–are complicated legal and philosophical questions. Namely, what happens when corporate leaders violate the founding purpose of a firm? To discuss, Luigi and Bethany are joined by Rose Chan Loui, the founding executive director of the Lowell Milken Center on Philanthropy and Nonprofits at UCLA Law and co-author of the paper "Board Control of a Charity's Subsidiaries: The Saga of OpenAI.” Is OpenAI a “textbook case of altruism vs. greed,” as the judge overseeing the case declared? Is AI for everyone, or only for investors? Together, they discuss how money can distort purpose and philanthropy, precedents for this case, where it might go next, and how it may shape the future of capitalism itself.Show Notes:Read extensive coverage of the Musk-OpenAI lawsuit on ProMarket, including Luigi's article from March 2024: “Why Musk Is Right About OpenAI.”Guest Disclosure (provided to The Conversation for an op-ed on the case): The authors do not work for, consult, own shares in, or receive funding from any company or organization that would benefit from this article. They have disclosed no relevant affiliations beyond their academic appointment.
The US wine industry let out a sigh of relief last week when President Trump decided to pause placing 20 percent tariffs on goods from the European Union, which would have included wine. However, the White House's global trade war is creating sour grapes with another major US trading partner--Canada; and that is jeopardizing California's wineries, which usually bank big with our neighbors to the North. In other tariff news, Governor Gavin Newsom and California Attorney General, Rob Bonta, have filed a lawsuit against the Trump Administration, saying that the president does not have the authority to impose unilateral tariffs. A non-profit watchdog group has released a report that sheds light on the world of black market rideshare and food delivery accounts, where people who wouldn't normally pass a background or criminal records check to register as a legitimate gig worker, can instead rent a vetted account on social media.

Privacy Risks of 23andMe BankruptcyA breach impacting 7 million users, coupled with lawsuits and financial distress, means 23andMe's 15 million genetic profiles could be sold or misused under a new buyer. The California Attorney General has urged users to delete their data and destroy physical samples, highlighting the vulnerability of storing sensitive genetic information with for‑profit entities under financial strain.Clearview AI's Data Acquisition AttemptsClearview AI tried to buy a massive database of arrest records, mugshots, and personal details (like social security numbers). This would greatly expand its controversial facial recognition repository, fueling concerns about privacy, consent, and misuse by governments or private actors.Hungary's Use of Facial Recognition at Pride EventsHungary banned Pride events and authorized facial recognition to identify attendees, who may face fines under “child protection” laws. Critics view this as an attack on free assembly and expression, especially for LGBTQ+ communities, creating a chilling effect on peaceful protests.China's New Facial Recognition RulesFacial recognition is banned without consent and in private spaces, requiring privacy assessments and encryption. However, these rules exclude “algorithm training,” meaning facial images may still be collected for AI development, undermining the intended privacy protections given China's widespread CCTV presence.US Coordination on Russian Cyber Threats HaltedUS national security agencies ceased joint efforts against Russian cyberattacks, disinformation, and oligarch asset seizures. This abrupt stop raises concerns over weakened defenses against foreign interference, though official explanations remain unclear.Microsoft's Unpatched .LNK ExploitAn eight‑year‑old Windows shortcut (.LNK) exploit persists, with Microsoft labeling it a “UI issue” rather than a security flaw. Attackers, including state‑sponsored groups, hide malicious commands in whitespace, leaving users vulnerable to spying and data theft.Windows 10 End of SupportWith support ending in October 2025, Microsoft urges users—over half of its Windows base—to buy new hardware for Windows 11. This approach overlooks the financial burden on many and disregards feasible upgrades or affordable alternatives for existing devices.Dutch Universities Shifting Away from WhatsAppSchools such as Utrecht and Avans recommend moving to Signal over privacy and misinformation concerns tied to WhatsApp's data‑sharing practices. Signal's strong encryption, open‑source nature, and non‑profit status align with the need for secure, private communication in educational settings.

Fresh Hope for Menendez Brothers as DA Reviews Case The Los Angeles County District Attorney, Nathan Hochman, met with relatives of Erik and Lyle Menendez as part of an ongoing review of their high-profile case. While no decision has been made, the family and advocates for the brothers are hopeful for progress toward their release. “When I came into office, I committed to reviewing all the facts of this case,” Hochman said. He explained that the review includes thousands of pages of prison records, trial transcripts, and other legal documents. Additionally, Hochman is consulting prosecutors and defense attorneys from the case's original trials. Over 20 relatives of the Menendez brothers attended the meeting with Hochman, which he described as “very productive” and “an informal, off-the-record discussion.” According to Hochman, the family shared their perspectives and hopes for the brothers' release. Cousin Anamaria Baralt spoke briefly to reporters after the meeting, expressing gratitude for Hochman's time. “This 35-year process has been incredibly traumatizing for us, as I'm sure you can all imagine,” she said. Baralt reiterated the family's call for immediate release, stating that going before a parole board would “only serve to re-traumatize us.” The Menendez brothers were convicted in 1996 for the murders of their parents, Jose and Kitty Menendez, in their Beverly Hills home in 1989. While their defense argued the brothers acted in self-defense after years of sexual abuse by their father, prosecutors contended they were motivated by financial gain. Lyle and Erik, aged 21 and 18 at the time of the crime, were sentenced to two consecutive life terms without parole. In October, former District Attorney George Gascón recommended the brothers' sentences be adjusted from life without parole to 50 years to life, which could allow for parole eligibility. Gascón cited their rehabilitation efforts and the role of trauma in the crime. However, Hochman, who succeeded Gascón, is still reviewing the case and has not endorsed his predecessor's recommendation. Beyond resentencing, the Menendez brothers have filed a habeas corpus petition to introduce new evidence and requested clemency from California Governor Gavin Newsom. Newsom stated he would defer to Hochman's review before making any clemency decisions. The case has also faced legal complications. An attorney for the brothers recently petitioned to move the case to the California Attorney General's Office, citing a conflict of interest involving Hochman's recent appointee, Kathleen Cady. Cady previously represented a family member advocating against the brothers' release. Hochman assured the public that Cady is “walled off from the Menendez case.” The Menendez brothers are scheduled to appear in court later this month for a hearing in their resentencing case. For now, their fate remains uncertain as Hochman's office continues its thorough review. #MenendezBrothers #JusticeReview #NathanHochman #FamilyTrauma #Resentencing #PrisonRehabilitation #ClemencyHope Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Steven Bailey, born in Northern California, was raised by a farmer and an elementary school teacher. Through his time on the family ranch, he learned resilience and discipline. Inspired to serve, he joined the U.S. Marine Corps Reserves as a young adult. After completing his degree at California State University, Sacramento, Bailey worked for Governor Deukmejian as a Deputy Director in the Department of Social Services and attended law school at night. He later established an 18-year law practice, specializing in criminal and administrative law, including complex cases like those involving the death penalty. In 2008, Bailey was elected as a California Superior Court Judge, handling intricate criminal and civil cases until his retirement in 2017. In 2018, Bailey ran unsuccessfully for California Attorney General, winning 36.4% of the vote. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he defended businesses and individuals affected by harsh mandates and continues to advocate against unconstitutional practices. Married to his wife Kathleen for 47 years, Steven resides in Northern California, where they enjoy time with their family, including their children and grandchildren.
WHO IS THE ENEMY WITHIN? Twenty years ago, Michael Savage warned about the ENEMY WITHIN in his prophetic book "The Enemy Within: Saving America from the Liberal Assault on Our Schools, Faith, and Military." Today, Trump is working to expose and defeat the forces that are destroying our Republic. Savage then sounds the alarm over the current political climate in America and the potential dangers of a Kamala Harris presidency. He accuses Harris and the current administration of causing wars and deaths in Ukraine and Russia, as well as the unconstitutional use of the military against US citizens. He criticizes Harris for her past roles as San Francisco DA and California Attorney General. She decriminalized street defecation and failed to address the drug cartels. He warns listeners not to vote for Harris, believing she would lead to fascism. He compares the current situation to historical events such as the Opium Wars and the Boxer Rebellion, and urges Americans to wake up to the alleged brainwashing and lies of the politicians. He concludes by reading from his book "Stop Mass Hysteria" to explain the hatred against Donald Trump. He dismisses claims that Trump is anti-semitic. He points out the hatred that the Left has spread and warns that we cannot survive another four to eight years of the Democrats. He then warns that the Left has been working to destroy the nation from within by weaponizing the DOJ and breaking down our borders at the DHS.

Joel Gilbert is back on The Truth Central as he exposes Kamala Harris' abuse of power as California Attorney General focusing on the case of single black mother Cheree Peoples, who Harris jailed because her daughter -- who was stricken with anemia and extremely sick -- did not attend school. This was a result of Harris' extreme and politically ambitious Truancy prosecution strategy where she cam after parents of kids who did not go to their respective. educational institutions. Despite the fact her daughter was ill and doctors' notes excused her from going to school, Harris and her AG office came down hard on Ms. Peoples, causing turmoil in the caring mom's and her daughter's lives. Harris, in the meantime, patted herself on the back over these prosecutions and the policy.Gilbert goes in-depth on what happened to Ms. Peoples as well as how and why Harris came after her, ignoring the true facts of her case in order to advance herself in his new documentary: ARRESTED BY KAMALA - A BLACK MOTHER'S STORY.

It's Monday, September 16th, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Muslim Pakistani brothers abduct, forcibly convert, and marry two Catholic sisters A high court in Pakistan has ordered police to recover two Catholic sisters, ages 13 and 18, who were kidnapped, forcibly converted to Islam, and married to their abductors, reports The Christian Post. Police initially refused to make efforts to recover Neha Javed and her older sister, Saneha Javed, following their July 23rd kidnapping in the Kasur District in Punjab. Two Muslim brothers from their neighborhood broke in, locked the parents' bedroom, and abducted the girls, leaving behind six other siblings. On July 29th, the family received images of Islamic conversion certificates and Islamic marriage certificates of both girls from a relative's phone. The 13-year-old, Neha, was shown as 19 years old in the marriage certificate, while 18-year-old Saneha's age was declared as 21. The sisters' mother, Sumera Bibi, said, “The accused's family is pressuring us to stop pursuing the matter and even attacked my husband with an axe when he confronted them. How can we let them destroy the lives of our daughters? Neha is only 13, while her abductor-husband is more than double her age.” Please pray that the police successfully find and free 13-year-old Neha and 18-year-old Seneha. Psalm 10:1-2, 10-12, asks, "Why, Lord, do You stand far off? Why do You you hide yourself in times of trouble? In his arrogance the wicked man hunts down the weak, who are caught in the schemes he devises. He lies in wait to catch the helpless; he catches the helpless and drags them off in his net. His victims are crushed, they collapse; they fall under his strength. He says to himself, ‘God will never notice; He covers His face and never sees.' Arise, Lord! Lift up Your hand, O God. Do not forget the helpless.” Pakistan ranks seventh on Open Doors' 2024 World Watch List of the most difficult places to be a Christian. Pope Francis: “Every religion is a way to arrive at God.” On Friday, Pope Francis told young people of different faiths that “every religion is a way to arrive at God,” reports LifeSiteNews.com. Addressing an inter-religious meeting of young people in Singapore, Pope Francis said this through his translator. TRANSLATOR: “One of the things that struck me about all of you here is your ability to engage in inter religious dialog. Every religion is a way to arrive at God. They're sort of like different languages in order to arrive at God.” The pope provided no explanation for how a Muslim, a Hindu, or a Buddhist, all of whom deny Jesus is God, could be saved if they deny the clear teaching of John 14:6 where Jesus proclaimed, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father except through Me.” Trump: Kamala's open door policies resulted in 325,000 migrant children missing At a press conference on Friday in Los Angeles, Donald Trump revealed some of Kamala Harris' horrific record as California Attorney General, reports Fox News. TRUMP: “As Attorney General, she defined child sex trafficking, assault with a deadly weapon, and rape of an unconscious person as nonviolent crime. She put them in a new category as nonviolent.” Trump added that as Vice President, Kamala Harris facilitated “the largest wave of sex trafficking and human trafficking in history" by allowing cartels to operate on the U.S.-Mexico border. TRUMP: “Now, as Vice President, she's facilitated the largest wave of sex trafficking and human trafficking in history, the history of our country by far. Under this administration, 325,000 migrant children are missing. 325,000! In other words, take your biggest stadium in California and you could fill it up five or six times. Those are all missing children. Many of them are dead. Many of them are sex slaves.” Tinder dating app facilitates casual sex, gives money to Planned Parenthood The relationship between so-called hookup apps such as Tinder and the abortion industry has always been implicit. The digitization of the hookup culture—swipe left, swipe right, meet for sex—has simplified the dating landscape for those seeking casual sex. Since launching in 2012, Tinder facilitated 1.5 million “dates” weekly and has over 60 million users. While some certainly use Tinder to seek long-term relationships, its primary function is as a sexual marketplace. As one recent Australian study found: “Tinder users were more likely to disagree with statements such as ‘I have a hard time respecting a girl who has casual sex' and more likely to agree with statements such as ‘Casual sex is acceptable.'” With millions of people meeting up for casual sexual encounters, it is inevitable that some of them will discover that the baby-making act has resulted in making a baby. It is also inevitable that many of those who become pregnant will seek abortions. In 2021, the parent company of Tinder, Match Group, publicly opposed pro-life laws in Texas. Then, in 2022, the Guardian reported, the company went further: “Match Group has been a vocal advocate of abortion rights, especially after the Supreme Court's ruling in June. The company announced on Tuesday that it would add a ‘pro-choice' badge to users' profile options. Match Group also supports Planned Parenthood through in-app promotions.” Students raise $20,000 to buy custodian Jeep Wrangler And finally, STUDENT 1: “He's more than just a custodian; he's a dear friend to all of us. He's just a very kind, genuine person.” That's the way one student at James Madison High School in Vienna, Virginia, described custodian Francis Apraku, a Ghanaian man, according to a report from WUSA-TV. STUDENT 2: “He's a bundle of joy. I mean, he would always pray for us before our football games freshman year. And he would always support us no matter what.” A group of kind-hearted students created a GoFundMe account and raised $20,000 in just six months. The kids then partnered with an area car dealership and used the cash to buy Apraku a cherry red 2015 Jeep Wrangler. The students surprised their school's custodian with the new vehicle on Monday, September 9th, In fact, he was so excited, the janitor fell to the ground and began rolling around. APRAKU: “This day, ninth September, I will never, ever forget today.” (applause) The janitor expressed gratitude to God through tears. APRAKU: “I don't believe this will happen in my life. I will give thanks to Almighty God for making today for me.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, September 16th, in the year of our Lord 2024.

Jack Smith has filed another indictment against Donald Trump over his alleged efforts to challenge the results of the 2020 presidential election. The new indictment keeps the prior criminal charges but narrows and reframes the allegations against the Republican presidential nominee. John O'Connor, former Assistant U.S. Attorney in Northern California, joined me to discuss the issue. Kamala Harris has repeatedly called for eliminating Right to Work nationwide and forcing workers across the country to pay union dues just to keep their jobs – despite admitting in a legal brief when she was California Attorney General that "union bosses have substantial power to harm workers' interests." Mark Mix, President of the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation, joined me to talk about her record and unAmerican efforts to force people to join a labor union. George Sinzer, host of FireFoxNews Online, dropped in to talk about the Democrat's efforts to keep RFK, Jr. on the ballot in battleground states while disqualifying Cornel West; the violent Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua, taking control of apartment complexes in Aurora, Co.; Brazil's Federal Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordering social media platform X be suspended in the country because they "would not comply with his illegal orders to censor his political opponents" and Kalama's CNN "interview."

In this episode of Right to Life Radio, John Gerardi and Jonathan Keller dive deep into the records of Kamala Harris and her running mate, Tim Walz, focusing on their extreme positions on abortion. The conversation covers the legislative actions taken by Walz in Minnesota that have effectively legalized infanticide and Harris's long history of aggressively pro-abortion policies, both as California Attorney General and as a U.S. Senator. They discuss the broader implications of these positions on medical ethics, federalism, and religious liberty. The hosts also touch on historical perspectives, referencing figures like Peter Singer and the deeply ingrained liberal culture in states like Minnesota.
The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (08/06/2024): 3:05pm- On Tuesday, Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris announced her running mate: Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. Almost immediately, videos of Walz making outlandish, progressive statements began circulating social media. In one clip, Walz explains that socialism is synonymous with neighborliness. While speaking at the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party Convention in 2018, Walz told attendees that his pro-abortion stance was so radical that even former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) suggested he should moderate his position. 3:15pm- In response to Kamala Harris's Vice Presidential selection of Tim Walz, former Obama Administration Advisor Van Jones said it's likely Harris caved to anti-Semitic elements within the Democrat Party who didn't want to see Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro on the ticket due to his religion. 3:40pm- Dr. Ben Carson—Former U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development & a Retired Neurosurgeon and Professor of Medicine at Johns Hopkins University—joins The Rich Zeoli Show and says he was “delighted” to hear that Kamala Harris selected Governor Tim Walz to be her running mate, as Walz provides very little to her campaign and further illustrates to commonsense voters that Harris is a radical progressive. Dr. Carson is author of the new book: “The Perilous Fight: Overcoming Our Culture's War on the American Family”—which he co-authored with his wife, Candy Carson. It's available now: https://a.co/d/5RggqEs 4:05pm- Monica Crowley—Former United States Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Public Affairs—joins The Rich Zeoli Show and reacts to Kamala Harris's selection of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate. Crowley notes that Walz provides nothing to the ticket electorally while simultaneously being unpalatable to moderates. Has the Harris campaign given up on winning independents and moderates? 4:30pm- Dave McCormick— Republican Candidate for U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania & former Under Secretary of the Treasury for International Affairs during the George W. Bush Administration—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss earning the endorsement of the Pennsylvania Fraternal Order of Police, which had previously supported Sen. Bob Casey. Plus, what are his thoughts on Minnesota Governor Tim Walz? You can learn more about his campaign here: https://www.davemccormickpa.com 4:50pm- In clip that has now gone viral on social media, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz insists that China is not an American adversary. He also pledged to build a “ladder factory” in response to Donald Trump's border wall. 5:05pm- While speaking to the press in Philadelphia, PA, Republican Vice Presidential candidate JD Vance implored the media to begin asking Kamala Harris tough questions about her far-left record. Despite becoming the party's presumptive nominee over two-weeks ago, Harris has not answered any serious questions from the press or conducted an interview. Rich wonders, is she copying Joe Biden's “basement campaign” strategy? 5:10pm- Disturbing Kamala Clip: In December 2003, then-District Attorney of San Francisco Kamala Harris speaks on Google's campus: “The power I have as a prosecutor is that with a swipe of my pen, I can charge someone with a misdemeanor—the lowest level offense possible. And by virtue of that swipe of my pen you will have to go to a courthouse…you will have to come out of pocket and hire an attorney, you may get arrested for a few hours, you will be embarrassed in your community.” 5:20pm- Kamala Harris & The First Amendment: The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board writes: “We keep looking for an issue, any issue, on which Kamala Harris differs with the Democratic left, but we keep coming up empty. That includes her party's use of lawfare against political opponents, as an episode while she was California Attorney General reminds us. Ms. Harris made headlines a decade ago by threatening to punish nonprofit groups that refused to turn over unredacted donor information. She demanded they hand to the state their federal IRS Form 990 Schedule B in the name of discovering ‘self dealing' or ‘improper loans.' The real purpose was to learn the names of conservative donors and chill future political giving—that is, political speech…The [Supreme Court] said California's claim that it would protect donor information lacked credibility, since during the litigation plaintiffs discovered nearly 2,000 Schedule B forms ‘inadvertently posted to the Attorney General's website' It noted that the petitioners and donors faced ‘threats' and ‘retaliation.'” You can read the full editorial here: https://www.wsj.com/articles/kamala-harris-california-attorney-general-lawfare-americans-for-prosperity-foundation-v-bonta-supreme-court-611a96f7?mod=opinion_lead_pos2 5:40pm- Tim Walz is the King of Covid Waste: Jim Geraghty of National Review writes that “the state's handing hundreds of millions of dollars to Minnesota's Feeding Our Future, the largest Covid-aid fraud scheme in the country. Announcing the federal fraud indictment against the Feeding Our Future nonprofit, FBI director Christopher Wray called it ‘an egregious plot to steal public funds meant to care for children in need in what amounts to the largest pandemic relief fraud scheme yet. The defendants went to great lengths to exploit a program designed to feed underserved children in Minnesota amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, fraudulently diverting millions of dollars designated for the program for their own personal gain.' The nonprofit reportedly used a quarter of a billion dollars in federal funds to purchase luxury cars, houses, jewelry, and coastal resort property abroad. What does this have to do with Governor Tim Walz, you ask? Well, a state legislative audit concluded that the Minnesota Department of Education was asleep at the wheel and for years had ignored red flags concerning the nonprofit…Every state government deals with waste, fraud, and abuse. But no other state has ever gotten taken to the cleaners to the tune of a quarter of a billion dollars.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nationalreview.com/the-morning-jolt/harris-vp-short-lister-comes-loaded-with-baggage/ 6:00pm- On Tuesday, Kamala Harris introduced her Vice Presidential pick—Minnesota Governor Tim Walz—while appearing at a campaign event at the Liacouras Center in Philadelphia, PA. Will Walz provide any sort of electoral advantage in the 2024 presidential race? Analyzing Walz's 2022 gubernatorial race, NBC election analyst Steve Kornacki concludes that Walz relied heavily on traditional Democrat voters—but didn't have much luck appealing to rural voters or moderates. 6:30pm- Tim Walz Speaks from Philadelphia: Almost immediately after being selected as Kamala Harris's running mate, videos of Gov. Tim Walz making outlandish, progressive statements began circulating social media. In one clip, Walz explains that socialism is synonymous with neighborliness. While speaking at the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party Convention in 2018, Walz told attendees that his pro-abortion stance was so radical that even former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi suggested he should moderate his position.

NEVER HEARD OF TIM WALZ? He never heard of you, either. He's Kamala Harris' running mate and he says “One person's socialism is another person's neighborliness.” Mark him down as a socialist. Sam DeMarco, Chairman of the Allegheny County Republican Party is happy that Harris chose Walz over Pa. Governor Josh Shapiro, but he thinks the Democrat Ticket is now a socialist disaster. David Daleidin, founder of the Center for Medical Progress, recounts his first hand experience with Harris when she was California Attorney General. She went after him for exposing Planned Parenthood's baby part sales business. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Are you a Californian who feels isolated and alone in your political views in a deep blue state? Feel like you can't talk about insane taxes, an overbearing government, and radical social experiments without getting a side eye? Then join us on the California Underground Podcast to hear from people just like you. Original air date 7.30.24 Summary In this episode, Phil and Camille discuss Kamala Harris and her past as a California politician. They explore her relationship with Willie Brown, her time as San Francisco District Attorney, and her role as California Attorney General. They highlight instances where Harris withheld exculpatory evidence and refused to release inmates, all while benefiting from their cheap labor. The hosts question her leadership abilities and ethical decision-making. Her unimpressive 2020 presidential campaign, in which she dropped out before the Iowa caucuses, further highlighted her weaknesses as a candidate. Harris's record on criminal justice reform and her flip-flopping on important issues have made her unpopular among both the left and the right. As she takes on the role of vice president, her past actions and decisions are likely to come back to haunt her. *The California Underground Podcast is dedicated to discussing California politics from a place of sanity and rationality.* Check out our full site for more information about the show at www.californiaunderground.live Follow California Underground on Social Media Instagram: www.instagram.com/californiaunderground X: https://twitter.com/CAUndergound Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@californiaunderground?_t=8o6HWHcJ1CM&_r=1 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCj8SabIcF4AKqEVFsLmo1jA Read about our Privacy Policy: https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/privacy-policy/
Vice President Kamala Harris is enjoying a surge in popularity as she runs for President against Donald Trump, but that also means closer scrutiny of her record as a prosecutor here in the Bay Area. She's catching flak from the left for being too tough on crime, and heat from the right for being too lenient, as both San Francisco District Attorney and California Attorney General. For more, KCBS Political Reporter Doug Sovern, along with KCBS Radio news anchors Patti Reising and Brett Burkhart spoke with Tinisch Hollins of San Francisco, the Executive Director of Californians For Safety and Justice, the criminal justice reform organization, as well as the State Director of Crime Survivors for Safety and Justice.

In this episode Hawk discusses a significant development in the 2024 U.S. presidential race: Joe Biden's withdrawal from the campaign and his endorsement of Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee. Hawk expresses enthusiasm for this change, viewing it as a positive shift that will energize the Democratic party and present a strong challenge to Donald Trump. He praises Biden's decision as patriotic and statesmanlike, highlighting Biden's accomplishments during his presidency and long career in public service.He then delves into Kamala Harris's background and qualifications, emphasizing her experience as a prosecutor, district attorney, and California Attorney General. He points out her strong performances in Senate hearings, particularly her questioning of Trump administration officials. The host suggests that Harris's prosecutorial skills and younger age will be significant advantages in the campaign against Trump. He also notes the irony that Trump had previously donated to Harris's campaigns for district attorney.The podcast concludes by discussing the key issues that are likely to dominate the 2024 campaign, including abortion rights, Project 2025 (a conservative policy blueprint), and the aftermath of the 2020 election and January 6th events. Hawk expresses confidence that Harris can effectively challenge Trump on these issues and ultimately win the election. He calls for unity among Democrats and emphasizes the importance of defeating Trump to preserve the democratic process for future elections.

How dare a stripper, a fringe woman, not stay silent and compliant as vice officers sexually harassed her ... and worse. And how dare Kata Pierce-Morgan challenge stereotypes and fight back? But Les Girls Theater had a history of fighting back starting with its owner James Morgan who spoke up against police abuse to a county Grand Jury in the hopes that the California Attorney General would crack down on the San Diego Police Department's Rat Pack. Kata was a midwestern Catholic girl who believed, like her late husband Jim, in not being a silent bystander. Even if you were a dancer at Les Girls. After all, Jim had won a groundbreaking victory over censorship in the late 1960s. But as the 60s became the 70s, Kata and her fellow dancers faced an onslaught of police raids, nude interrogations and coerced encounters. In this chapter: Kata Pierce-Morgan, poet, activist, former dancer, current owner of Les Girls Theater John Barriage, lawyer who represented James Morgan and Les Girls in 1980s Kate Yavenditti, lawyer and co-founder of the County's Task Force on Domestic Violence, also involved with WomenOccupySan Diego and the National Lawyers Guild.

“Everyone dies.” This was the first line in the California Attorney General's 2021 complaint against the nation's largest funeral service provider, Service Corporation International (“SCI”). Earlier this month, Attorney General Rob Bonta announced a proposed settlement with SCI, based in Texas and doing business as the Neptune Society and the Trident Society. California alleged that SCI violated the Unfair Competition Law and False Advertising Law by engaging in false advertising in its marketing and sale of pre-need cremation packages. https://www.kelleydrye.com/viewpoints/blogs/ad-law-access/california-ag-says-funeral-service-provider-made-a-killing-at-consumers-expense Paul Singer psinger@kelleydrye.com (202) 342-8672 www.kelleydrye.com/Our-People/Paul-L-Singer Abigail Stempson astempson@kelleydrye.com (202) 342-8678 www.kelleydrye.com/Our-People/Abigail-Stempson Beth Chun bchun@kelleydrye.com (202) 342-8671 www.kelleydrye.com/Our-People/Beth-Bolen-Chun Natascia Taken ntaken@kelleydrye.com (312) 857-7097 https://www.kelleydrye.com/people/natascia-m-taken Subscribe to the Ad Law Access blog - www.kelleydrye.com/subscribe Subscribe to the Ad Law News Newsletter - www.kelleydrye.com/subscribe View the Advertising and Privacy Law Resource Center - www.kelleydrye.com/advertising-and-privacy-law Find all of our links here linktr.ee/KelleyDryeAdLaw Hosted by Simone Roach

We return to NAAG's 2023 Consumer Protection Fall Conference for “Advertising Psychology and Law Primer.” While it lived up to its name covering many basic advertising law concepts, the panel also covered specific perspectives from California on junk fees and other advertising principles that are valuable tips to help stay off their radar.

Last month, California Attorney General Rob Bonta sued tech giant Meta, arguing that its Instagram and Facebook platforms use psychologically manipulative features that are harming kids' mental health. And in September, his office sued ExxonMobil and other oil giants, alleging they misled the public about the climate effects of fossil fuels. We'll talk to Bonta about the high profile cases he's brought on California's behalf and about a range of criminal justice issues, including his office's recent decision not to charge four Anaheim police officers who shot and killed the unarmed cousin of a Santa Ana City Council member. What are your questions for Attorney General Bonta? Guests: Rob Bonta, California Attorney General
Earlier this week I read the 71-page decision of Judge Roger Benitez, a Federal trial court judge, in holding (FOR THE SECOND TIME) that California's standard-capacity magazine violates the Second Amendment.Obviously, the gun controllers are losing their minds over this decision, and so it was well-anticipated that the California Attorney General, Bonta, would appeal the ruling to the 9th Circuit.Instead of following normal 9th Circuit procedure and have the matter proceed to a 3-judge appellate court, however--where the mag ban had PREVIOUSLY been found unconstitutional, only to be reversed by an en banc panel of the 9th--the 9th circuit has decided today (Sept. 28), to by-pass normal procedure and go straight to en banc.Reversing 2A-favorable trial court and 3-panel appellate court rulings is a favored practice of the 9th Circuit, and reliably results in pro-2A rulings being overturned, usually in decisions that can only be described as irrational word salad. Interestingly, there were several dissents to this order taking the matter en banc, and THEY WERE ON FIRE!!!Become a Law of Self Defense Member for JUST 99 CENTS!Not yet a Law of Self Defense Member?
