Newsom Nominates Rob Bonta as California's First Filipino Attorney General
KSBW ^ | Mar 24, 2021 | Hope Miller

Gov. Gavin Newsom has appointed Assemblyman Rob Bonta to be California's next attorney general and fill the seat vacated by Xavier Becerra.

If approved, Assemblyman Rob Bonta of Oakland will be the state's first Filipino attorney general. Becerra's post was vacated after he was recently confirmed as the U.S. Health and Human Services secretary.

Advertisement "Rob represents what makes California great — our desire to take on righteous fights and reverse systematic injustices," Newsom said in a prepared statement. "Growing up with parents steeped in social justice movements, Rob has become a national leader in the fight to repair our justice system and defend the rights of every Californian. And most importantly, at this moment when so many communities are under attack for who they are and who they love, Rob has fought to strengthen hate crime laws and protect our communities from the forces of hate. He will be a phenomenal Attorney General, and I can't wait to see him get to work."

No one no longer cares if a person can do the job.

They care about what genitals they have, and what color skin they have.

MLK’s wonderful dream has come true. /super sarc

The pinkos complain about racism but they make race the center of every possible event.

From Oakland ? Radical Stalinazi. Bonta has a 96% ultra-leftist score from the ACU.

We are quickly becoming the laughingstock of the whole world.

It really doesn’t matter one’s heritage, ethnic background, theistic beliefs, with whom they sleep in a bed, etc. As long as they are Americans and cherish American values.

Every country has their share of ethnic or cultural or religious groups. They accept them in their own way. Only in the West is it considered some kind of virtue worthy of a press release. And only in America is it a factor/consideration for promotion to an elevated position. Merit is a white supremacist concept.

“Every country has their share of ethnic or cultural or religious groups.”

The key is who defines such “groups”. It used to be there were Irish, Frenchmen, Germans, Poles, Jews, Spaniards, etc. Now they are all grouped into white.

I’d venture a guess that people who are not in a group define all the other groups in order to create a group of their own. Or, if that is incorrect, then each group defines all the other groups how they see fit by majority vote.

Do I get an E for effort?

Pandering as usual! Next month they’ll claim that white Americans have bias against people who identify as Martians!
