This is an uptick from Trumps out of control DOJ. They are now siding with the domestic terrorists that build pipe bombs and the like over those who try and prevent their actions. Truly unbelievable. apnews.com/article/sout...

Definitely looks like Betty Yee's going to drop out of the CA governor's race, there's a press conference in 90 minutes. If we had ranked-choice voting Betty would have been a solid choice. Unfortunately she couldn't compete and was fracturing the field.
