A group of lefty Los Angeles activists and lawyers who scored an eye-popping $177 million in City Hall contracts is now bankrolling a DSA-backed candidate for the city’s top prosecutor — a move that’s raising serious oversight concerns. Campaign filings reviewed by The California Post reveal that far-left challenger Marissa Roy has built a war chest of $462,629, putting her within striking distance of incumbent City Attorney Hydee Feldstein Soto, who currently holds $686,341 in campaign funds. The impressive stash of cash has come to light just days after councilmembers approved the taxpayer-funded windfall to the nonprofit groups to fund a program that provides legal aid and support to tenants facing eviction.
