A California GOP lawmaker is challenging the hiring of former U.S. Attorney Eric Holder to fight the Trump administration, saying it may violate the California Constitution.
Assemblyman Kevin Kiley has asked the California Attorney General’s office to investigate whether legislative Democrats ran afoul of the law by retaining Mr. Holder and his law firm, Covington & Burling, for $25,000 per month to do a job that can be performed by state employees.

Ping...
When did Holder ever care about the Law?
or fair voting?
or the whites attacked at the polls by his Black Panthers?
or the whites raped and murdered by his agents?
Rules are for Republicans, silly congressman.
Constitution? We don't need no stinking Constitution!
And this will stop the cultural marxists? Since when do they care about laws except to use them against their political opponents?
They'll get right on it!
Does California know Holder is a Terrible Lawyer ?
As if that mattered one whit. He will never get any court to agree with him. Even if he did the 11th circus would quash it.
WOW- whodahthunk anyone in California cared about constitutionality?
I hope Holder is stupid enough to “fight” Trump...I’ve waited a LOOOONG time for someone to have the GUTS to call Holder the scumbag he is.
California has become essentially a fascist city-state with the Rat bastard Party holding ALL of the executive offices and super majorities in both legislative houses, not to mention a fairly corrupt court system including the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals that will rubber-stamp all of California’s recently passed unConstitutional “laws”.
I wonder how long the statute of limitations is for lying to Congress?
Well, $25,000/month is a bunch of money.
Is that just the retainer?
What triggers exceeding the base amount?
Drain the California Tar Pits !

You expect California RATS to follow the law?
Yea, that is really a joke. The CA AG cares nothing about the law, only support for liberal, progressive, Leftist policies and ideas.
$25K a month? Lawyer chump change - the firm must be really hard up for paying clients ...
U.S. Attorney Jeff Sessions is going to be a very busy man.
California is now a one-party state. The legislature has super majorities in both the senate and assembly. The Governor is hard core liberal, as is the Lt. Governor. Their support for open borders, sanctuary cities and allowing anyone to vote shows solid disdain for the US Constitution.
There were zero Republicans running for statewide office and no GOP candidates in nine of California’s congressional districts. At the state level, Investor’s Business Daily reports, six districts had no Republicans for the state senate and 16 districts had no Republicans for the state assembly.
What is clear is that California (where I was born and raised) has passed the point of no return and any hope for a favorable place to raise children or comfortable retirement for those who are tethered there by family or professional ties are dwindling quickly.
