SDSU's expose of DeMaio coincides with Peters’ university support boast
Seems as though DeMaio's use of the money was not illegal. It's a loop hole? Well, then you can do it until it's illegal. Not sure of the big deal KPBS is making. But for sure their timing is calculated. They must need Peters. Not sure I've seen KPBS take a hard look at other campaign funding issues, like elected officials taking exotic junkets with their spouses points around the world. Hawaii in December is always nice. Special interests fund those in the main, but campaign funds are normally used to fill in the difference.— June 19, 2013 12:58 p.m.
Governor's sister and crony now both on Sempra board
Interesting that so many of the business and government officials in the New York Times story are still involved in California and Mexico politics decades later, several having moved up the ladder a bit. And the energy issues such as LNG are still front and center. In addition to controversial wind energy issues in the border region.— June 17, 2013 2:10 p.m.
Fullerton lawyer who backed Alvarez gets free Padres tickets from city
Jones and Mayer, by the way, aren't very well liked in their hometown of Fullerton, where people usually know you the best.— June 11, 2013 10:46 a.m.
Fullerton lawyer who backed Alvarez gets free Padres tickets from city
Hmmm. Give a thousand. Get back a thousand (in Padres tickets). Hope Alvarez doesn't start learning from Todd Gloria. People had hopes for him to be a straight arrow. Usually, however, it doesn't take long for the gift giving and gift taking to become a bad habit.— June 11, 2013 10:45 a.m.
Out at SDSU, Roush Moores-bound?
That Peregrine stock contribution was such a boondoggle. On the backs of the stockholders.— June 6, 2013 12:09 p.m.
FBI raid draws spotlight to San Diego donors and legislators
Los Angeles Times 6/6/13: "Over the years, Calderon has managed to stand out in a Legislature awash in gifts from lobbyists."— June 6, 2013 7:59 a.m.
FBI raid draws spotlight to San Diego donors and legislators
Regarding Ricardo Lara & his Las Vegas fundraiser. He must have learned from the best, since he previously worked for one of the biggest gift-takers, Fabian Nunez.— June 5, 2013 9:17 p.m.
Koch-tied non-profit teams with Manchester's U-T San Diego
Excellent piece. Very revealing. Who would have known? It takes a lot of looking under the layers to find the "reason" things are happening. It's not by chance and it's not benign.— June 3, 2013 11:01 a.m.
Filner rips hotel moguls as secret 8 a.m. lawsuit session looms tomorrow
Apparently the hotel people are not accustomed to not getting their own way. Is the hotel group's Brown saying they spent all the money and now don't have "enough" to comply with their promise for the park centennial? Game playing, pure and simple.— May 31, 2013 11:54 a.m.
She gave her son a house in Solana Beach, a new Lexus, and $130,000
The son probably was not getting the focused, sustained mental health support he needed. Therapy, medication, etc. If he was schizophrenic - and it's not uncommon to be diagnosed at exactly that age - he should have our sympathy and not society's condemnation. For families who are experiencing this kind of challenge, there should be more resources.— May 22, 2013 8:38 p.m.
