Republican candidate for state attorney general Steven Bailey speaks at a candidate debate in Sacramento, Calif. California's Commission on Judicial Performance on Wednesday barred former El Dorado County judge Bailey from serving on the bench or working with any state court.
“This is and was a political hit by a Democrat-dominated commission designed to damage me politically — nothing more, nothing less,” Bailey said. “I sought, received, and followed ethics advice from the California Judges Association that is now being second-guessed 10 years later."to Democratic incumbent Xavier Becerra, who received 61% of the vote.
Among its findings, the commission said Bailey attended political events at which he distributed campaign donation envelopes and cards that referred to him as a “sitting judge” and stated that his “judicial experience and his legal and legislative skills make him uniquely qualified to be California’s Attorney General in 2018.”
Only for Republican judges? No surprise here.

Analysis: Cohen holding up under attacksMatt Miller, MSNBC contributor and former spokesperson for the Department of Justice, tells Andrea Mitchell that he thinks Michael Cohen has held up under Republican attacks at the congressional hearing. He talks about the 'odd dynamic' where Cohen has put himself in a position of moral authority for no longer enabling the president. Yes, and amazingly well and very strong. The Republicans are behaving like the Spanish Inquisition, for Pete's sake. They're so angry and so belligerent I'm concerned some of them may have some kind of breakdown during the Committee hearing. Their questioning gives new meaning to the term 'Witch Hunt!' How ironic! Cohen is telling and reading what Mueller and Deep State told him to do. He's a liar, his next job will be for MSM fake news 😂
