Bloomberg, the former mayor of New York City who is now running for president, funded a network of attorneys who helped pursue prosecutions related to “climate change.”
As the Competitive Enterprise Institute noted in a 2018 report, Bloomberg created a “scheme” to pay attorneys who were placed in the offices of state attorneys general, and whose role was to pursue environmental violations — as well as the political opponents of left-wing climate change policies:
York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, this scheme centerson paying to place activist attorneys—dubbed State Assistant Attorneys General (SAAGs)—in offices of the attorney general (OAGs) to play an agreed, predetermined, and activist role.
The intent is for those attorneys to advance the donors’ and large environmental advocacy groups’ “progressive clean energy, climate change, and environmental” policy agenda and—according to at least one OAG application—expressly to assist in pursuing the same agenda’s political opponents. In practice, this is a case of law enforcement for hire.
…
This approach represents an elaborate, deliberate plan to politicize state law enforcement offices in the service of an ideological, left-wing, climate policy agenda that has been frustrated by the democratic process. Under this scheme and deviating from standard government contracting procedures, private parties with an express policy advocacy agenda can pay to place activist investigators and lawyers in state AG offices to pursue that agenda.
Bloomberg’s “law enforcement for hire,” in pursuit of a political agenda, has yet to receive broader scrutiny.

He can pay a lot of democrat voters to go vote...a lot of money
I can’t believe how many fools believe that this dwarf is “moderate” or in the “center.”
Bloomturd is nothing of the sort.
Bloomturd is a freaking liar. He claims he created 500 thousand jobs in NYC while he was mayor. He did no such thing. My college educated daughter was out of work at the time and it was difficult for her to find a job. Luckily she eventually did but no thanks to Bloomturd.
