    Exactly what I've been saying. You're selling yourself as a man of the people...and then take a hard right turn publicly. It's not surprising that he's a republican or that he even supports politicians. But to get so out there in support of one was risky, even for a gambling degenerate as himself.

    Sounds like she doesn't plan to be out long, so that's fine and hope it's helpful to her. Its well-timed for her since she won't be facing another election in awhile.

    I just realized that she looks like 90's Andy Sidaris film series actress Roberta Vasquez

    I am surprised more politicians don't have this issue, people always looking for there "gotcha" moment, you're under more scrutiny with everyone having a camera or microphone............hell, you don't tip enough at Starbucks and it's all over the news that you a cheap bastardo. And for what? Politics have become (IMO) more personal these days, if you're not with us you a commie, marxist, pedophile, crack smoking bastardo. Maybe it's just because I am more involved over the past decade, but I don't remember it this bad............................social media has turned politics into a 24/7 circus

    Get well Lina

    I wonder if the city will reimburse Hildago's campaign $18k as part of the ~$900k reimbursement in criminal legal fees incurred during the investigation. The city also will reimburse Kim Ogg $175k for this case. The city is the biggest loser here having spent $1.375M on legal fees on both sides for a whole lotta nothing (two dismissed charges and one requiring 10 hours of community service for dismissal).

    The KP George case is more interesting. The accusation is that George transferred $46.5k to his personal account for a house down payment and property. If proven true, how did he think he was going get away with it?

    Hidalgo's campaign finance report was filed last month and detailed the expenses for the trip. The report shows Judge Hidalgo took five people with her to Paris, from June 8 to June 15, including her chief of staff, director of special projects, chief of external affairs, director of economic development, and director of policy.

    The costs in her campaign finance report were $25,079 on lodging, $17,422 on airfare, and $337 to Uber. No meals were listed.
