It’s an illegal political contribution-in-kind. Google is worried their monopoly is going to be broken up.

Nicole Shanahan, RFK Jr’s Veep was married and recently divorced from a Google bigwig.

The RFK Jr team might go full MAGA tomorrow night.

Connection here? I am told in politics there are no coincidences.

Rhetorical:

Why on Earth would the preeminent leftist propaganda arm of the demoncrat party invest so massively in a state which doesn’t even meet the standard criteria for ‘battleground state’?

So Google is going to spend gobs to do what ... keep CA blue? CA voting blue is the norm but maybe the political winds are shifting to the right a bit. It could be that while the CA vote for KamalHo may be a slam-dunk the down ballot races may not be as clear cut.

I don’t understand...why this deal came about in the first place? Is it an investment business deal in which Google expects to make a financial profit? Is it the result of a lawsuit or a threatened lawsuit? What?
