On Sunday, Assemblymember Mia Bonta (wife the the Attorney General and co-sponsor of ACA7) announced on Twitter/X that $1,250,000 of taxpayer money was going to the Huey P. Newton Foundation.
Seriously? You mean the Huey P. Newton who repeatedly stabbed Odell Lee with a steak knife? The Huey P. Newton who killed Oakland police officer John Frey and then bragged about it? The one who almost certainly ordered the murder of Panther bookkeeper Betty van Patter, whose badly beaten body washed up on a San Francisco Bay beach five weeks later? Is that the guy we’re talking about?
