For those that aren’t from California. The worst one on that list is PGE. At least in terms of corrupting a Californian politician. Expect the entire state to be on fire.
13.5 mil is chump change compared to remediataion costs for even a small fire in california. Those bribes will be worth every penny. Some corrupt asshat at PG+E deserves a raise and bonus for that.

They’re throwing money at whatever will knock down Steyer.
You don’t think they’ll want favors?
