California Tries to Criminalize Journalists Exposing NGO Fraud
AB 2624 is a bill introduced by Mia Bonta, wife of California's Attorney General, and it's exactly as conflicted as that sounds.
What it does:
• Criminalizes journalists with misdemeanors, $10k fines, and imprisonment
• Forces content takedowns
• Shields immigrant-based NGO funding from public scrutiny
• Makes "immigration support services" info entirely off-limits
Instead of going after the fraud, they're going after the people exposing it. Classic captured-state move. The AG's wife writes a law that protects organizations from the press, and we're supposed to pretend that's a coincidence.
