Patrisse Cullors, one of the original co-founders of the Black Lives Matter movement, was found to be responsible for another extravagant spending spree on behalf of another organization that she leads, according to the Daily Caller.
Campaign finance records show that the group “Reform LA Jails,” founded and led by Cullors, spent almost $26,000 on multiple “meetings” at a luxurious beachside resort in Malibu, California. The various “meetings and appearances,” according to the records, took place at the Calamigos Guest Ranch and Beach Club between July and September of 2019. Approximately $10,000 was spent for a trip to the Beach Club, with another nearly $16,000 spent at the Malibu Conference Center, a conference facility that is run by the same resort.

Another soda tax bill dies. Another win for Big Soda.
A rogue industry. A gun to our head. Extortion.
That s how infuriated lawmakers described soft drink companies and what they pulled off in 2018 when they scored a legislative deal that bars California s cities and counties from imposing taxes on sugary drinks.
Yet, despite its tarnished reputation, the deep-pocketed industry continues to exert its political influence in the nation s most populous state, spending millions of dollars on politically connected lobbyists and doling out campaign contributions to nearly every state lawmaker.
The result? Bills long opposed by Coca-Cola Co., PepsiCo and other beverage companies continue to flounder. Just two weeks ago, a measure that would have undone the 2018 deal that lawmakers so vehemently protested was shelved without a hearing.
