Today, we’re celebrating a win — not just in policy, but for the safety of your family, your community, and your right to self-defense. Assembly Bill 1333 is dead, and it’s because people like you spoke up! This is what it looks like when public pressure works — and it’s exactly the kind of momentum we need to keep going. I’m your host Tess Abraham, and we are going to cover what happened with the bill, why it matters, and what it means for the future of California, on this week’s episode of The California Conversation!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
