There is little doubt that California’s partisan Democratic Attorney General Rob Bonta is colluding with his anti-Semitic Hollywood friends, like Mark Ruffalo and Jane Fonda, and his fellow radical Democratic attorneys general to push his political lawsuit to try to stop the Paramount-Warner Bros. merger.
But that’s not all, folks. It turns out that Bonta’s office also has connections to a political consulting firm actively working to stop the merger from going through.
It turns out that, for the opponents of this merger, it’s all in the family — in some cases quite literally. As first reported by Politico, Bonta’s communications director is married to a principal at Dewey Square, which has been doing PR work for the “Block the Merger” organization and sending out press releases on their behalf since at least April. This is the same group that is reportedly funded by leftist radical billionaires like George Soros, Pierre Omidyar and Chinese Communist Party (CCP) ally Neville Singham; all of these Democratic megadonors appear to be actively working behind the scenes to try to manipulate the outcome of the merger.
Even more evidence continues to stack up against Bonta, proving that this lawsuit is nothing more than a political stunt to try to appease his billionaire overlords and Jew-hating Hollywood buddies.
In fact, Bonta’s lawsuit is so unpopular that he is hemorrhaging Democratic support by the day. Gov. Gavin Newsom (D., Calif.), Mayor Karen Bass, and Xavier Becerra — the likely next Governor of California — have all publicly stated they want to settle. Last week, New Jersey Democrats penned an op-ed in the New Jersey Globe stating that Bonta’s political gambit is jeopardizing thousands of jobs and potentially putting their constituents at risk of paying the $7 million per day fee.
The New Jersey lawmakers wrote: “More significantly, beginning October 1, the merger agreement imposes approximately $7 million per day in additional consideration as closing is delayed, and Paramount has now moved for approximately $1.88 billion in security against losses it attributes to the injunction action — an amount that could be assessed on a joint and several basis, meaning any one of the 12 states involved could have to cover the full cost.”
Paramount, for its part, doubled down in a court filing, stating that the 12 states involved in the lawsuit delaying the merger will be on the hook to pay the $1.88 billion caused by their own self-created merger delay.
There is a very real scenario that taxpayers across the 12 states involved in the lawsuit will be on the hook to pay for the fines. “Each of the attorneys general who signed onto Bonta’s lawsuit should be forced to answer why they would expose their constituents to that kind of financial risk,” Ashley Baker, executive director at The Committee for Justice, explained. “Forcing taxpayers to foot the bill for a $1.88 billion bond request for a politically motivated lawsuit is irresponsible, even for a radical attorney general like Rob Bonta.”
On the other hand, Republican Attorneys General are looking out for Americans from coast to coast. Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird and Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen filed a motion with the Supreme Court seeking to have the antitrust lawsuit thrown out, which they described as a “politicized enforcement action” being led by Bonta. The Supreme Court gave Bonta and the other 11 Democratic attorneys general involved in the lawsuit until September 25 to respond to the objection of their lawsuit.
In a Daily Wire op-ed, Bonnie Glick argued that “Mark Ruffalo needs to spend more time as a nonverbal, big green Hulk with no time in actual speaking roles.” Rob Bonta should similarly spend time acting as an actual attorney general, and not as an enforcer for the Democratic Party’s donor class. California has plenty of actual crime he can focus on instead.
