Granlund

How does that saying go? Never throw rocks from a glass house.
Here’s one for the books.
Former republican State Assemblyman and renowned Sacramento Lobbyist Brett J. Granlund seems to be living an awkward life over the past few years.
A life like a James Bond 007 or the fugitive.
A guy who ten years ago while under the influence of a pain killer, called his Yucaipa constituents “white trash” during an interview with a local reporter, is currently a lobbyist for Platinum Advisors.
A firm employed by San Bernardino County.
Lately Granlund, in addition to having trouble telling the truth, seems to be utilizing very odd methods of functioning.
From using a Wal-Mart debit card because, as he puts it, you can re-charge up to $10,000 in cash on it, to using a minute rechargeable throw down phone, things seems really strange.
Combine the above with multiple civil suits against him, out of state drivers licenses, and a vast amount of time outside of the country and state and one has to only wonder.

A source close to Granlund says the astute lobbyist is in the process of negotiating settlements with the intent of discharging them in bankruptcy.
In a 2006, an outside investigation was conducted into the purchase of a jail facility by San Bernardino County, in which Granlund acted as a go between. A primary finding by Los Angeles-based attorney Leonard Gumport was that Granlund had no credibility and created a conflict of interest.
Is anyone surprised.

Grandlund is a crook. He is such a crook I am shocked that he hasn’t run for the BOS since being a crook is the only requirement to sit on the Board.
Granlund should worry about those rumors, Erwin is not so stupid that he’s going to wire himself to get info. He just points out who in Granlunds inner circle of crooks is willing to be wired. Erwin still has his secret loyal followers, just in case he beats this rap and rises again. They want to make sure they are on the winning side. The Attorney General and Ramos are not out for justice, they’re just picking and choosing at whim. Ramos may be laughing today, but…
Sad Day.
Neil Derry 0 – Mike Ramos 1
Neil Derry = Game Over.
Sadly Ramos won this one and Derry will have to resign. Sad.
Resign???????
Hell no!!!!!!!!!
IF he goes down, he’ll not only go down fighting, but he’ll take a few with him- don’t underestimate Niel and his silent allies.
washed up drunk granlund is
Wal mart is tight. Watch for falling prices!
RICHARD SHERMAN
It may sound controversial but Wal Mart is sticking their neck out for people who can’t get bank accounts in America by creating this Money Card system. Sure, it acts as a tool to keep them shopping at Wal Mart, but they likely would anyway. He’s got a great point about using it as a cash dump. Bet he hangs out at Cricket, too.
Granlund got shit done. this article is garbage. so steamed right now you guys.
Guy Fieri probably uses a Walmart card like a bold flavor loving boss man
Granlund’s Candies by the way should get more love on Yelp. Only 6 reviews for that local business.
Guy Fieri should take DDD there.
if granlund was still working in local politics we’d all be eating hot and ready ‘za with cheetos on top. too bad corncobs running inlandpolitics.com gotta ruin everything.
SO STEAMED RIGHT NOW YOU GUYS! FEEL LIKE I COULD DRINK A THOUSAND BEERS RIGHT NOW
JOHN SYKES FOR MAYOR. GRANLUND FOR DEPUTY MAYOR.
Me for mayor.
It’s ridiculous to classify the people of San Bernardino as white trash when there’s so many smelly mexicans too.
MANTI TE’O
There’s an alarming lack of hash tags in this article. #politics #hangingbrain
Looks like the rest of San Bernardino Board of Supervisors along with sheriff dumbazz McMahon. SBCounty most corrupt in the States!
