San Francisco Magazine has published highlights of the indictment against Democrat California Sen. Leland Yee. Yee is currently running for California secretary of state, a post from which it now appears that he intended to wage strategic guerrilla warfare until he went off the grid to fight for Islamic rebels himself.
Yee told an FBI agent to give him a shopping list of guns: “Senator Yee asked [the agent] to provide an inventory list of desired weapons [...] [The agent] told Yee he would deliver $2,000,000 cash.”
Yee could arrange from some serious firepower: “[The agent] asked about shoulder fired automatic weapons. Senator Yee responded by saying the automatic weapons are the equivalent to the ‘M16′ Automatic Service Weapon [...] [The agent] asked about the availability of shoulder fire missiles or rockets. Senator Yee responded ‘I told him about the rockets and things like that.’”
Yee took personal responsibility for delivering the weapons: ”Senator Yee said, ‘We’re interested’ in arranging the weapons deal’ [...] and said of the arms dealer, ‘He’s going to rely on me, because ultimately it’s going to be me.’ [The agent] stated he would compensate Yee for brokering the relationship and arms deal.”
Yee was in it for the cash: “Senator Yee said, ‘Do I think we can make some money? I think we can make some money. Do I think we can get the good? I think we can get the goods.’”
Yee masterminded a complex scheme to import illegal weapons: “Keith Jackson [a political consultant who worked as Yee's fundraiser] told [an agent] that Senator Yee had a contact who deals in arms trafficking. This purported arms dealer was later identified. Jackson requested [a campaign donation] on behalf of Senator Yee, for Senator Yee to facilitate a meeting with arms dealer with the intent of [the agent] to purportedly purchase a large number of weapons to be imported through the Port of Newark, New Jersey. During a meeting [...] Senator Yee discussed certain details of the specific types of weapons [the agent] was interested in buying and importing.”
Yee had connection with Filipino rebel groups: ”Keith Jackson advised that Senator Yee had an unidentified Filipino associate who was supplying ‘heavy’ weapons to rebel groups in the Philippines.”
Just ponder that one for a few seconds. Yee has tried to disarm Americans. Behind the scenes he claims that he is arming rebel groups in the Philippines. Which rebel groups? You’ll see on the next page.
These rebel groups:
Including Muslim terrorists: “According to Senator Yee, Mindanao was largely population by Muslim rebel groups who were fighting the federal government. Yee continued by saying the Muslim rebels had no problem ‘kidnapping individuals, killing individuals, and extorting them for ransom.’”
And yet he wanted to arm them, while disarming law-abiding Americans.
In specific the Moro Islamic Liberation Front: “[The agent] asked about the major Muslim organizations in the Mindanao region of the Philippines. Senator Yee responded by saying ‘M.I.L.F.’”
Yee apparently wasn’t making up his arms dealer. It’s a real person. A real Russian person.
And, Russian arms dealers: “According to Senator Yee, the arms dealer source the weapons from Russia.”
Well. Surely having an elected official working on illegal deals with Russian arms dealers to arm Islamic terrorists trying to overthrow a government allied to the United States at a time when Russia is causing global — sorry, regional — problems, isn’t a big problem…?
And neither is this?
Yee yearned for a different life: “Senator Yee stated he was unhappy with his life and said, ‘There is a part of me that wants to be like you [...] Just be a free agent out there.’ Senator Yee told [the agent] that he wanted to hide out in the Philippines.”
This is extraordinary.
It’s at this point in the story that the media will go out of their way not to ask any other Democrats what they knew about Yee and whether they have a culture of corruption.

Update: Yee has dropped out of the California secretary of state race.
This POS is a traitor, pure and simple.
Execute the son-of-a-bitch. Justice done!
Maybe all Democrat candidates for anything be required to take a course in, and pass and exam on moral turpitude.
You’re right. Unfortunately, I didn’t create the gif, and I’m not sure how to alter it.
Muslim rebels just signed a peace treaty with the Philipino government today or yesterday....
COINCIDENCE?
Sometimes they make it so difficult and other times they make it easy. That said, I see probation and community service in his future, if that.
Can’t help but wonder if he had his fingers in Bill Clinton’s Chinese buddies arming up the LA gangs with full auto weapons right before the 1996 elections.
>>San Francisco, actually, was a Republican city for a long time. It was only after the perverts, Communists and hippies started to gain an edge in the ‘60s did it go to the dark side.
“Bullitt” really shows how beautiful San Fransisco was.
I remember taking a trip there in the 90’s and seeing homeless people fighting right as I exited the BART station.
What do Diane & Nancy know about this, and when did they know it???
Time for the media to hunker down and black this out.
His talents are wasted on the State level, and I suspect the Feds are simply jealous. I see a bright future for him eventually in the upper circles of D.C. power.
If convicted, he’ll probably get a presidential pardon and then join the Fed team, but most likely he’ll strike a plea deal in the next few weeks and make it a smoother transition.

You will SEE that the city was overwhelmingly Democrat except in 1920 - 1928. That WAS the "makings" of the Great Depression...Al Capone and Prohibition, all that "good" T.V. stuff.
The chart only goes back to 1916. California didn't even get statehood until the September 9, 1950.
“Sure sounds like it and it also sounds like Dianne Feinstein needs to worry.”
As well the Tongs are going to all get a proctological exam from the FBI. I’ll bet “Shrimp Boy’s” buddies are really pissed off!
They're questioning a certain Mr. Ibling Doe but it's not yet conclusive.
As long as he gives back the money, everything should be good. Right, Harry Reid?
Just another greedy and corrupt politician, many of which lurk in the halls of Congress.
Maybe his loyalty is to the Chinese. Helping weaken US and fill his pockets as he goes.
Simple misunderstanding, easy to explain. Now go pay your Liberty Tax citizen.
All politicians are scoundrels until proven otherwise. Upon proof, they must make regular installments of proof or the will be re-labeled a scoundrel.
Maybe he can have a ship named after him like the Murtha.
“Forget about Treason. Hoist the Rainbow ensign!”
