By Election Day, Trump’s feckless Justice Department will be 102 days past a Federal Judge’s deadline to reunite immigrant children with their parents. This despicable outrage continues only because gutless hyper-partisan toadies like Tom McClintock and Devin Nunes look the other way while that bloviating buffoon in the White House wages war on children. Trump is the most dangerous figure ...

The position of District Attorney is critical to the safety and security of all Madera County residents.

After reading the articles on Rep. Tom McClintock and Jessica Morse in the Mariposa Gazette and attending the debate on Sept. 23, I will continue to support our Congressman wholeheartedly.

Dear Neighbors, I am Paul Hornick, Senior Deputy District Attorney in Madera County. I am writing to set the record straight. My opponent paid to create an untruthful radio advertisement/ YouTube video. Sheriff Jay Varney made a statement that I disagree with and I want to share my version of events. Additionally, Deputy Jessica Martinez inaccurately characterized my actual statement ...

Many eyes are on the race for Madera County District Attorney and I feel compelled to weigh in publicly on this extremely important decision. Paul Hornick is the only choice for District Attorney.

Served in California Assembly for 14 years, California Senate for 8 years and in the U.S. House of Representatives for 10 years for a total of 32 years in politics.
