Let's compare @RepJimmyPanetta's feel good PR to #PPP money that went to guys like Clint Eastwood, Jimmy's Brothers firm Fenton & Keller, Don Chapin Co. and so on.

First, a $6,000 battery bicycle. Still a luxury:

Clint Eastwood a fellow Carmelite like Jimmy, and a hundred millionaire - millions in #PPP:

When Jimmy Panetta says he is working for his constituents in #MontereyCounty he isn't really talking about individuals. He is talking about big corporations.

After all. The majority of Jimmy's donors are Political Action Committees.

@BurgermeisterM3 Alejo & Caballero both belong in federal prison. Political forces kept Anna from a credible investigation by @USAO_NDCA and @FBISanFrancisco for her role in the Maya Theater / Berkley Hotel / Oldtown scam (using public funds).

... it's not that hard to figure out who the corrupt fucks are in my community.

Mike Hackett is a convicted cocaine trafficker and major marijuana kingpin in Monterey County.

Monterey County supervisors claimed no felons would be working in "legal" #cannabis.

Mike Hackett's @RiverviewFarms_ is being sued (again) for various torts.

In a nutshell people who do biz with Hackett later and often soon end up accusing Hackett of being a scumbag.

The lawyer representing Hackett is lying Larry Biegel a local criminal defense attorney. ImageImageImage

Jennifer Rosenthal is representing Riverview Farms.

Who is Jennifer Rosenthal?

She is a @RepJimmyPanetta campaign cash bundler.

Rosenthal is also a marijuana lawyer (of course) and represents a guy named Sal Palma Jr.

Junior's grandfather was also named Sal Palma. ImageImage

I hope Tom doesn't mind my sending an amicus letter brief on this case. Total horse shit and an attack on the Public Records Act.

"Now Stewart has filed what’s known as a reverse Public Records Act request, asking a judge to prevent any of those records from being released." ImageImageImageImage

* Fun fact Joe Cisneros was formerly a partner with defense lawyer Larry Biegel who filed a perjured dec. in a local dope dealers case. #Hackett

"The record at issue, according to a writ filed by Joe Cisneros, Stewart’s attorney, is a letter of warning regarding a complaint.

“Carmel Unified’s position is that they’re neutral and not going to contest it,” Cisneros says "... their position is that unless they get a court order that says, ‘don’t turn it over,’ they’re going to turn it over.”
A judge will decide the matter on Feb. 18"

The County of Monterey is paying the legal fees for a former @MCoSheriff detective of narcotics (and a total scumbag IMO) Archie Warren. Why?

Warren was Supervisor John Phillips' errand boy for Rancho Cielo. Funny connection.

Warren led a four man raid on the former Sheriff Image

of MoCo's house.

That former sheriff's son is a drug addict.

Warren was aligned with another couple scumbags - IMO. Those two scumbags are former sheriff Mike Kanalakis (who ate at former narco-trafficker Dave Drew's pub for free) and Matt Luther a fired former narc. Corrupt former Monterey Cou...Image

Begs the question. Is the county paying legal fees for Archie Warren and friends in their lawsuit against Deputy and former @CityofSalinas councilman Scott Davis and Sgt. Dan Mitchell?

Congressman,

In 2018 your cousin was arrested in the home owned by your Uncle Joe when he was found to be in possession of bombs, guns and drugs. Your cousin was also a former local police officer.

Do you think it's appropriate for his trial to be conducted by the local
