"When we have individuals that are deceiving people and obfuscating, we are in deep trouble "” our democracy is in trouble," said Yee, the author of a bill, SB330, that would require public university foundations to be subject to the same scrutiny as schools. "It is truly shocking and a gross violation of the public trust that such documents would be thrown away and destroyed during a pending investigation."...........
