Very disturbing to see elected officials **physically push** @ZavalaA out of the elevator for **simply doing her job and asking questions.** Elected officials ran for office knowing they would be in the public eye. Accountability is part of that.
WATCH: California Assemblymember Mia Bonta refuses to answer questions, won't say if she'll recuse herself from overseeing her husband, Attorney General Rob Bonta's budget: "There is no violation of ethical rules in my holding this position."

After 10 years of teaching, including 7 years advising @TheStateHornet, the time has come to leave Sac State.😢 I'm honored to have taught journalism where I studied two decades ago, and I'm so proud of our grads doing so many great things. (Below, my first day advising, 2015):

Newsom declined to answer any questions from the Capitol press corps after his victory speech on election night, then he spent the evening with a DC columnist to prove his disinterest in national politics.
NEW: I spent election night w @GavinNewsom in the governor’s mansion, a building filled with prez history. But unlike Reagan + Jerry Brown, Newsom isn’t challenging an incumbent His hope: super surrogate “Put me in coach,” he told Biden My column: politico.com/news/2022/11/26…

I wrote a looooooong story about Gavin Newsom's expected run for president and what people can expect based on his time as mayor of San Francisco. Local folks had some interesting opinions 🤠 sfstandard.com/politics/gavi…

Meet the 75-year-old gas station owner originally from Syria who sold the $2B Powerball ticket in L.A. County. I was in awe of his work ethic and compassion for others. “The money is nothing — I give them my love.” Great photos too, via @gary_coronado latimes.com/california/story…

Proposition 27 is going down like nothing I've seen in the California elections I've covered. Now I want to know where it ranks among the worst-performing ballot initiatives.

Just moved to California? Freshly 18? Just forgot to register by the deadline? You're in luck. California offers same-day registration. Just head to your polling location with some form of ID and cast your ballot! From @jacqueline___p for @sacbee_news: sacbee.com/news/politics-gov…
