Who was the attorney general of California in the Daleiden case?

Throughout the case, which the Thomas More Society took up in 2015 after Daleiden was sued for his videos, Daleiden’s team said it acquired evidence that the Attorney General of California (Kamala Harris at the time, who then transferred the case to the subsequent AG Xavier Becerra once she became U.S. Senator) was “working hand in hand with the abortion industry to prosecute David Daleiden — to do everything possible to silence him.”

What is the case against David Daleiden?

Forget the lefties wailing about “heartbeat” laws in Texas and Mississippi representing the loss of freedom for American women. The criminal case against David Daleiden has revealed the real tyranny — that the abortion industry and the California Attorney General of California have been working together, “twisting” U.S. law to order to “crush” an undercover journalist for exposing the truth about Big Abortion’s practices.

What did Breen say about Daleiden?

Breen remarked that Daleiden’s battle with the two monstrous entities “has ripped the mask off of the abortion struggle in this country.” It has revealed that the abortion industry is so powerful that it is pressing the California government to do its bidding in “crushing” Daleiden. The evidence for that is so obvious that Breen claimed his legal team has “operated under the theory that the abortion industry is controlling the prosecution.”

What evidence was there in the raid on Daleiden's home?

Some of this evidence included “statements on record by the attorney general’s office that they had provided certain materials to the National Abortion Federation (NAF) that were not their’s to provide.” Those materials were items seized by the government when they raided Daleiden’s home at the order of then-Attorney General Kamala Harris in 2016. Not only that, there was evidence that “two weeks before” Harris authorized the search warrant, “she was meeting with the heads of Planned Parenthood in California” where both parties discussed Daleiden’s videos.

Who is the lawyer for Daleiden?

MRC Culture spoke with one of Daleiden’s lawyers, Thomas More Society Vice President and Senior Counsel Peter Breen, about the case. Breen explained that Daleiden’s legal fight against the state of California, and his fight against other abortion industry-related lawsuits from other states, is a “struggle” out of “Greek mythology,” with Big Abortion and California standing in for Medusa and the Kraken.

What does NAF attorney fee record show?

In addition, NAF’s attorney fee records show “numerous references” to work “being done together with, or for” the Attorney General’s office.
