#CA48 GOP Michelle Steel isn't a public servant. She's there to serve donor clients like @FlyACIJet. They've dumped thousands into her warchest & her favorite charities like @KA_CCOC. Then the Koreans turned around and dumped thousands into her warchests too!
@IndivisbleCA48
@FlyACIJet benefits bigly from expansion at @JohnWayneAir. 2nd District OC Supervisor, Steel drives those decisions. ACI is Supervisor Michelle Steel’s largest aviation donor -- giving at least $25,000 to her campaigns. #CA48 @IndivisbleCA48 #newportbeach
During hearings on @JohnWayneAir expansion Michelle Steel asked @FlyACIJet to contribute $20,000 to @KA_CCOC, Korean business leaders have given at least $100,000 to her campaigns -- probably more. #CA48 @IndivisbleCA48 #newportbeach
Yup, #LieCheatSteel did it! #CA48 Michelle Steel

Wikipedia describes billionaire Olivier Leclercq as a "French Businessman"; yet the @FlyACIJet Vice President has contributed at least $7,600 to #CA48 @MichelleSteelCA. Is he a US or French citizen?

@VoiceofOC @FEC
In 2018, @MichelleSteelCa started raising $$$ for CA State Controller 2022 -- @claylacy was 1st & largest donor $7300. She didn't collect any more 💰 for 3 months. She terminated cte in 2019, gave $18,050 to @OCGOP. How much $$$ is OC GOP spending on #CA48?

@VoiceofOC
Tony Strickland is a paid lobbyist for @claylacy aviation. He has a history of money laundering. #CA48 @MichelleSteelCA awarded his client a BIG OC Airport contract after they funneled thousands into her warchests. His Huntington Beach address is a UPS Mailbox Store.
Corporations can't give to Federal campaigns but @ClayLacy aviation funneled $7,300 to @MichelleSteel's State Controller Cte, then she shuttered that cte and funneled all the money to @OCGOP which is supporting her campaign for #CA48!
One gets the impression that @MichelleSteelCA formed a cte to run for State Controller so she could accept thousands from @claylacy because CL was first to donate and she got no other donations for 90 days. Were they helping her "launch" the campaign?
#CA48 @MichelleSteelCA pushed to award expanded FBO contracts at John Wayne Airport to bidders ranked #4 & #5 based on qualifications! Note in thread above the relationships Steel has with @FlyACIJet & @claylacy 💰💰💰

#LieCheatSteel | Don't #standwithsteel she's corrupt.
When GOP Donor David Horowitz decided to cancel fundraiser he'd planned for #CA48 @MichelleSteelCA, he called her husband Shawn to let him know. Another sign that Michelle is Shawn's tool?
More and more I'm curious... what role/influence Shawn Steel had over @michellesteelca & @DonWagnerCA in determining who got FBO contracts at John Wayne Airport? His ties to @claylacy & @FlyACIJet are under investigation.
Billionaire Olivier Leclercq has been @FlyACIJet EVP since Jan '14. He gave $2k to @MichelleSteelCA in '17 and said he was w/ Coolibar Inc? Why did he send a letter to @OCGovCA in '16 supporting ACI on Montecito Express letterhead? Seems deceptive. #LieCheatSteel #CA48
In making its pitch to @MichelleSteelCA @FlyACIJet's Billionaire Olivier Leclercq said he'd move his G6 to John Wayne Airport. Another false promise?

Steel often tells Newport Beach residents to "trust her" when she works out handshake deals.
Hmmmm... according to @opensecretsDC, billionaire French businessman Olivier Leclercq, EVP at @FlyACIJet, has only given money to 3 politicians, all 3 are OC GOP bedfellows:

Shawn Steel
Dana Rohrabacher
@MichelleSteelCA x2

Wikipedia says he's French. Is he a US citizen?
Shawn Steel has long history partnering with dirty @claylacy lobbyist Tony Strickland:
- CA Club for Growth
- Committee for American Sovereignty
- CA Ballot Measure

Is this why @MichelleSteelCA awarded FBO contract to 4th ranked Clay Lacy? #LieCheatSteel #CA48 #ClayLacyCaresAct
Crooked @claylacy lobbyist Tony Strickland doesn't even live/work in #OrangeCounty. His only ties to OC are carpetbaggers Shawn & @MichelleSteelCA. He used a Huntington Beach UPS Store mailbox to register in OC. Shawn Steel's staff probably picks up any mail for him.
For that matter was it @MichelleSteelCA's husband Shawn who suggested/told @ClayLacy to hire Tony Strickland as their OC lobbyist?
Apparetly crooked @Claylacy lobbyist Tony Strickland does have another connection to OC, @joinandrewdo's Chief of Staff Chris Wangsaporn was once Strickland's CoS. #claylacycaresact
In the end it was @MichelleSteelCA @joinandrewdo & @OCSupBartlett who awarded FBO contract to 4th ranked @claylacy. And of course, Bartlett's campaign manager was also paid big bucks to lobby alongside corrupt Tony Strickland on behalf of Clay Lacy. #ClayLacyCaresAct #CrookedAF
Question is what really did @claylacy "pay" money laundering lobbyist Tony Steel? And how are Shawn & @MichelleSteelCA @TaxFighterSteel benefiting? 'Cause you KNOW they are. How much of the $27M Cares Act check did Clay Lacy funnel their way? #ClayLacyCaresAct @VoiceofOC
The hits keep coming... When dirty @ClayLacy lobbyist Tony Strickland and @MichelleSteelCA's husband Shawn formed California Club for Growth, they hired @joinandrewdo's current Chief of Staff Chris Wangsaporn as their Executive Director! #ClayLacyCaresAct So he owed them one?
In case you're doing any research of your own, corrupt @claylacy lobbyist Tony Strickland also goes by Antoine Strickland. #ClayLacyCaresAct
When Tony Strickland, Shawn Steel & Chris Wangsaporn started CA Club for Growth, you know who else joined in? @SenatorMoorlach @YoungKimCA Bruce Whitaker, Chris Norby #ClayLacyCaresAct
When money launderer Tony Strickland, the @ClayLacy lobbyist, and @MichelleSteelCA's husband Shawn Steel formed Committee for American Sovereignty PAC, Strickland skimmed off $20,000 for himself. #ClayLacyCaresAct
Also, seems like Committee for American Sovereignty PAC, formed by mony launderer Tony Strickland & @MichelleSteelCA's husband @GOP National Cte Man Shawn Steel was a front for Florida-based Skye Lane Properties LLC which dumped $250,000 into the PAC. #ClayLacyCaresAct
When I call Tony Strickland, the @claylacy lobbyist and good friend of Shawn & #CA48 @MichelleSteelCA
Crooked
Corrupt
Shady
Dirty
Money launderer

Here's why 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
#ClayLacyCaresAct https://twitter.com/AndrewDough3/status/1300639352393879552
Is it a coincidence two of Shawn & @MichelleSteelCA's notoriously crooked pals are back at it: @claylacy lobbyist Tony Strickland and felon @billpostmus!

#ClayLacyCaresAct

Years of money laundering! Drugs. Scheming. Returns.

🤯 @FlyACIJet & affiliates, wives, daughters sprinkled more than $200k over Orange County officials including @MichelleSteelCA @joinandrewdo @OCSupBartlett @DonWagnerCA @OCSheriffBarnes They gave 5th Ranked ACI a contract anyway! @VoiceofOC

🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩 money launderer Tony Strickland, Steel family friend & partner, was chief @ClayLacy lobbyist but he didn't give any campaign 💰💰💰 to @TaxFighterSteel. Clay Lacy did dump $7300 into a Steel cte she quickly terminated. #ClayLacyCaresAct http://bit.ly/ClayLacymoney 
@ClayLacy + affiliates report giving @joinandrewdo $18k before he voted to give that 4th ranked applicant a big @JohnWayneAir FBO contract. CL's lobbyist was previously the boss, colleague of Do's Chief of Staff. 🤔🤔

#ClayLacyCaresAct
@ClayLacy got a $27M COVID bailout from taxpayers. How much of that did they pay @OCSupBartlett's campaign mgr to be their lobbyist? When Jeff Corless was on the @TheTollRoads gravytrain, he made hundreds of thousands 💰💰💰from toll taxpayers.
Curious... seems @joinandrewdo's Chief of Staff @chriswangsaporn previously worked w/ @ClayLacy lobbyists Tony Strickland & @JeffCorless. 1) how did CL come to hire Strickland & Corless? 2) how much of the $27M #ClayLacyCaresAct money did CL pay Strickland & Corless? 💰💰💰
On the other hand, @FlyACIJet has contributed NOTHING to HB Councilman Mike Posey's 2020 campaign for supervisor! ACI is declaring it's support early for Newport's Councilman Muldoon. Prolly 'cause they needed Muldoon for FBO contract. http://bit.ly/ACImoney 
Found $12,000 more that @claylacy funneled to @OCSupBartlett & @TaxFighterSteel. This #ClayLacyCaresAct money went into state campaign ctes: Steel for CA State Controller 2022 + Bartlett for Senate 2022. That's $80k from CL so far! http://bit.ly/ClayLacymoney 
@FEC records indicate @FlyACIJet dumped $25k+ into #CA48 @MichelleSteelCA's warchest.

🚩🚩🚩 Curiously @claylacy & its money laundering lobbyist Tony Strickland -- a longtime Steel family pal -- report nothing! 🤔

http://bit.ly/ClayLacymoney  #ClayLacyCaresAct #CA48
@Wikipedia: @claylacy, a CA-based private jet charter company that serves business execs & celebrities, received CARES Act grant of nearly $27M that it does not have to repay. CL founder, donated $47k to GOP.

#ClayLacyCaresAct

Hey @JeffCorless what is CAL Freedom PAC? Why did @ClayLacy fund it? Why were they sending you monthly payments? Were you working to help Shawn Nelson defeat @YoungKimCA? Was this some shady Tony Strickland money laundering deal? #ClayLacyCaresAct
@FlyACIJet has dropped $200k into the political warchests of key OC GOP politicians like @TaxFighterSteel & @joinandrewdo to get this contract! https://twitter.com/genereaux2019/status/1305740912350228480
This thread 👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻 is one of the reason they say #CA48 Michelle Steel is the MOST CORRUPT POLITICIAN in OC!

#LieCheatSteel #MAGAmichelle don't #StandWithSteel https://twitter.com/asorellana/status/1303736619611172868
DA @toddspitzeroc spoke today at @OCGovCA hearing to award @JohnWayneAir FBO contracts to @FlyACIJet & @claylacy. His campaigns received nearly $20K from Clay Lacy & $60k from ACI! $80,000 DUMPED INTO HIS WARCHESTS!
@FlyACIJet & @claylacy dropped more than $300,000 into the warchests of 4 current Orange County supervisors & other elected officials and here's what that bought them 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

@VoiceofOC https://twitter.com/ExileOC/status/1306062987174715393
Of course they did! Shady @claylacy slipped $80k into a secet PAC to support #CA48 @MichelleSteelCA -- and attack @HarleyRouda -- after she awarded them a LUCRATIVE @JohnWayneAir FBO contract and after Clay Lacy took $27M in taxpayer funded COVID bailouts #ClayLacyCaresAct
After #CA48 @MichelleSteelCA gave @ClayLacy lucrative @JohnWayneAir contract they slipped $80k into shady CAL FREEDOM PAC which is now spending thousands to attack her opponent @HarleyRouda. I smell money laundering lobbyist Tony Strickland behind this. https://twitter.com/CATargetBot/status/1314298335486910464?s=20
A shady PAC funded by @claylacy aviation is spending thousands more to attack #CA48 @HarleyRouda. His opponent @MichelleSteelCA gave Clay Lacy a multimillion @JohnWayneAir contract in Sept. Days later Clay Lacy dumped $80k into this PAC! https://twitter.com/CATargetBot/status/1319340466983235584?s=20
