Former Los Angeles City Council President Nury Martinez on Tuesday announced she is taking a leave of absence after an audio of her making racist remarks surfaced.
Nury Martinez was caught on leaked audio saying a fellow Democrat Mike Bonin’s black son was “like a monkey.” Martinez also had this to say about Soros-funded radical DA George Gascon, “F**k that guy. He’s with the blacks.”
Mike Bonin is a gay politician with a black son.
Democrat Nury Martinez attacked the child.
Prominent California Democrats called on Martinez to resign.
Former California Secretary of State-turned Senator Alex Padilla said he was “appalled” at Martinez’s “racist, dehumanizing” remarks and called on her to resign.
