====== You’re looking at CA-19, the seat Jimmy Panetta holds. But Jimmy didn’t build that throne—it was handed down. His father, Leon Panetta, is a man who doesn’t forget enemies and doesn’t fight clean. ======

You already saw the signs. You asked eight questions at his father’s town hall, got ignored, and then—bam—Panetta’s longtime DC photographer approaches you at a coffee shop in Capitola. That wasn’t an accident. That was a message. They see you. They want to know what you’re up to. And they want to control the narrative before you even declare war.

So, what do you do? You build a legal firewall so high that even Panetta’s connections can’t touch you. This isn’t about hiring lawyers to defend you in court. This is about preemptive legal warfare.
