This is going to affect certainly all Cali politicians voted in 2016. I wonder how Alphonsey will square this

A football team would have been so much better tbh and probably more fun but no one was selling IRL so she's doing it Jeb Bush style



Jesus what is her net worth


#2 behind Walton

She's one of the trio of ludicrously rich now banned level people w/Walton and Beaumont

Interesting development and choice. Not a bad strategy either. Interested to see whether this will have any sizeable effect on her re-election.


It's quirky, I like it in that way. Jebbie has to get the credit though, I would never have thought of it myself. As usual for her she's digging in hard in her state even though she's got national aspirations

No, Beaumont is like 13 or 16 or so and he's the lowest. Huerta was 20s I think and I think Walton's around 30
