Once again, the First Assistant U.S. Attorney conveniently omits a key fact: the Trump Administration's USPS rule that would severely restrict mail-in voting remains blocked in California and 23 other states through the upcoming November 3, 2026 general election. My office is

This ruling is a win for election integrity and would have significant implications for states like California that refuse to submit their voter rolls to verify compliance with federal election laws.

When we see corporate consolidation, such as in Paramount and Warner Brothers, we often see higher prices for everyday consumers, lower wages for workers, less competition, less diversity of content, and more. That’s why we have antitrust laws — to prevent mergers such as this.

President Trump’s “big speech” came across as a desperate attempt to throw anything and everything at the wall in order to get his voter fraud theories to stick. His inability to accept defeat would be laughable if it wasn’t so dangerous. We have stood strong in defense of

The Trump Administration has defanged our federal regulators. That's why Attorneys General like @AGRobBonta have to step in to give this mega-merger the scrutiny it deserves. A deal this size, in an industry that's already lost thousands of California jobs, could mean less

The unlawful merger of Paramount and Warner Bros. would lead to higher prices, lower quality, and less film and television content—harming the entertainment industry and audiences alike. We’re going to court to stop it.
