    JFC just throw this asshole in prison already and demand Riverside County immediately start their election proceedings from scratch. You’re supposed to be the bluest of blue states.

      You’re supposed to be the bluest of blue states.

      I think that’s actually Minnesota.

      Edit: Last time Minnesota voted for a Republican president was 1972, and the only state that didn’t vote for Nixon in that election was Massachusetts. Massachusetts voted for Reagan in 1980 and 1984 (as did California).

          Tim Walz is still an establishment dem. The state pigs have aided ICE many times, pushed back protesters, arrested protesters, and all around just acted buddy buddy with ICE.

          I’m of course not the least bit surprised, but Walz has done functionally nothing to stop that. Same with my Governor in IL. They talk a big game of stopping Trump and his goons, but they’re either cowards or complicit.

          Really sad to be honest.

            And also he threw in the towel and decided to retire once things got a little tough. Big disappointment.

    Yikes. He had LEOs opening and counting ballots for a few hours. Even if there was corruption, it’s now tainted.

    I realize that’s superficial, but someone with a beard like that can’t possibly be up to anything good…

    Bianco argues that his department was conducting a lawful criminal investigation under warrants signed by a judge. His lawyers also contend that the four voters do not have standing to sue and that the dispute should first go through a lower court.

    I’m sure my tax dollars, as a California resident, probably pay for his lawyers. Asshole.
