Who is the government holding in its shelters for “unaccompanied” immigrant children? Turns out, a growing number of these kids were taken away from loving parents and other relatives.

NITHYA RAMAN’S YEARS IN CHARGE Raman blames Karen Bass for LA’s homelessness crisis. But Raman was chairing the City Council’s homelessness committee before Bass became mayor. She’s had YEARS. If she had the answers, why didn’t she fix it then? She wants us to believe becoming mayor changes that?

Xavier Becerra put the Steve Hilton contradiction right on the debate stage: enforce Trump’s federal immigration laws, but ignore California’s own protections? Then he dropped the hammer: “You seem to welcome immigrants who look like you, but deport immigrants who look like me.”

Xavier Becerra has a message for naturalized American citizens: YOU ARE NOT A SECOND-CLASS CITIZEN. VOTE. “What the Trump administration is telling us, is that they believe that they can intimidate U.S. citizen voters.”

Apparently, billionaire influence is only bad when it's the other billionaire. Tom Steyer has spent more than $200 million trying to become governor of California, nearly three times more than all of his opponents combined. I wrote about why that should scare Democrats more than anyone.

Tom Steyer wants voters to see him as a climate crusader now. But let’s be real about where the money came from. Steyer built his fortune at Farallon Capital through investments tied to coal, fossil fuels, mining & global energy infrastructure. Environmental watchdogs spent years documenting it. 🧵

Steyer might be cooked in politics. More is coming about paid influencers promoting his campaign w/out proper disclosures. Now he’s trailing in the latest poll. But the biggest scandal is that he’s able to outspend his opponents with the $ millions he made from fossil fuel and private prisons.
