You left out a lot of people.

... Ben Swig for instance.
“In the early to mid-’70s, [real estate developer] Ben Swig, Chief Justice Earl Warren, and former California Governor Pat Brown, among others, owned Cannery Row and at that time they wanted to get rid of it,” Balestreri says.

@cmarinucci
“The Coastal Commission was being formed and things were getting tougher and tougher to develop. I went up to see Swig who owned huge hotels in San Francisco.

And they walked Leon Panetta into Chief of Staff, CIA Director and SecDef.

These are scary and powerful people who routinely misrepresent themselves to Californians.

This silver spooner has been dropping my name with @MCoSheriff.

Let's clear this up, Jimmy, I'm here operating in complete transparency:

• two and a half decades of working successfully against local corruption - quietly
• political adviser to Judge Kay Kingsley (ret.)
2/
• assisted Tom Wills in becoming a Superior Court Judge.

• filed the only CJP complaint against J. Mike Fields for taking money from Tony Lombardo (your friend) resulting in his forced retirement

• successfully ran Scott Miller for Sheriff 2010/ 2014 lost to Bernal

@RepJimmyPanetta, your name was thrown into the #cannabis for cash MoCo scandal, involving an FBI investigation by @Calkins_Royal and @VoicesofBay.

It involves your relationship with Mike Bitar and Mike Hackett, convicted felons and the hundreds of thousand paid to Plasha.

... it happens incrementally.

@AldenCapital did it to the @MontereyHerald and @Gannett did it to @salnews.

The "left" @mcweekly endorses Trump loving locals like @PhillipsForSupe & @CityofSalinas Mayor @kimbleycraig.

@LeonPanetta12 works for a Trump billionaire. @cmarinucci

I'll have to figure out an elegant way to describe this, but as it goes to Trump/Mafia style dirty dealing in politics - this is a doozy.

I'm having a usual Sunday briefing with some LEO supporters, regarding corruption in Monterey Co. @RepJimmyPanetta has made a fool of himself
2/
in that Jimmy contacted a couple sworn within @MCoSheriff to discuss (me) and @alllocalpolitic. Why?

Because this account mentions Panetta. This is how dirtbag politicians, journalists, and a machine work, folks.

It bothered a couple of my sources because they like

Panetta from there days when he worked as a Gang Prosecutor.

Important points:

• 2010-2014 I was the only adviser to Sheriff Scott Miller - who also received special treatment

• 2010-2014 I worked to improve @MCoSheriff transparency and remove dirty cops and it was

Let's start the Hackett question from scratch for you, @JoshCopitch.

What was MH felony probation violation for?

What was the courts ruling on MH felony probation violation?

What were MH new conditions?

What did @chief_filice @SalinasPD do while MH was on fel. prob?
Is Mike Hackett currently on felony probation for cocaine trafficking?

I'll answer this for you kid, no, Hackett's felony probation ended February 2021

What does that mean for @RiverviewFarms_, when it's clear Mike Hackett transferred the cannabis business into his wife's name?
How has the County of Monterey addressed the community concern that a number of convicted felons are operating in local #cannabis when that's prohibited by the State of CA. framework for cannabis?

cc @WendyRootAskew @AdamsSupervisor

Because I guarantee it's a 2024 problem.

BOOM

And this kid reporter @JoshCopitch, who I have done nothing but politely tag in some of my posts regarding NEWS is mute. They train these people like this. It's their own cult in local journalism and @stevemcshane should be able to vouch for this - I have the backing of

some very influential community members who are tired of the exact same things I have been tweeting about for a couple years now - AFTER @VoicesofBay, @JoeLivernois' crew, asked me for help on background looking into the relationship with Mike Hackett, the Cabrera brothers

and a prison street gang in a money laundering claim.

Then the journalists, upon hearing this is real and it's serious, all went to ground and began defaming me publicly, locally in an effort to intimidate me from speaking out and taking this to the most public platform I
