CARLSBAD, California A city councilwoman who filed frivolous restraining orders against two local bloggers critical of her liberal politics has been ordered to pay $47,191 in attorney fees, a Superior Court judge ruled Friday.
Democrat Cori Schumacher is also facing a recall for the incident in addition to attempting to push through COVID-19 punishment measures against businesses and residents who defied California’s yearlong lockdown.
“She doesn’t understand that the public is allowed to criticize her for virtually any reason,” said Scott Talkov, attorney for blogger Noel Breem who was one of the defendants. “She thought she could silence her critics and do it by force. The court told her, No, you can’t do this. This remedy is not available to you. This will hit her hard because she doesn t make a lot as a councilmember. She only made $42,564 in 2019, according to Transparent California.”

Following an exodus of at least $375 billion worth of businesses from California in the last two years, Democratic governor Gavin Newsom claimed there s literally no better place to do business than the Golden State.
Newsom who has faced criticism over job-killing labor laws and stringent coronavirus lockdowns fired back during his Tuesday evening State of the State address. The Democrat touted California s special mix of audacity, human capital, and creativity to argue that the state is the most business friendly in the country. According to a California Policy Center report, however, more than 40 large corporations have left the Golden State in the last two years alone. The figure includes at least 10 public companies worth a combined $375 billion.
