The rally Monday was a patriotic event, with most of the Vietnamese carrying American flags, and the flag of Vietnam, and many wearing American flag clothing. As the rally officially… Read More

As an earlier supporter of President Trump’s candidacy, it was such a great sound to hear the introduction of “Mr. Speaker, the President of the United States of America.” President Trump being escorted into the Chamber by Congressmen Kevin McCarthy and Steve Scalise, the President wearing a very fashionable blue stripe tie received a warm standing ovation.

Putting aside my bias, I must say that we heard a very Reagan style speech, he stared by celebrating the end of Black History month, condemning hate and evil, the threats of violence and vandalism against Jewish Community Centers .

He spoke about patriotism; “Each American generation… Read More

Deep State: A body of people, typically influential members of government agencies or the military, believed to be involved in the secret manipulation or control of government policy. – Oxford English Dictionary

The term “Deep State” has been around for at least a decade, but it has emerged into common parlancein reference tothe alleged opposition by elements of the U.S. intelligence community to the presidency of Donald Trump. An insightful analyst who has written extensively about the deep state on his blog “Of Two Minds,” is Charles Hugh Smith. In onerecent commentary, Smith created a diagram of the deep state, showing how it encompasses far more than just the intelligence agencies, but constitutes the entire so-called “establishment,” where virtually… Read More

Former Senator Isadore Hall, a Democrat who marched with the President of the United Farm Worker’s labor union, and publicly declared his solidarity with the UFW campaign against the Gerawan Farming employees, has been appointed by Gov. Jerry Brown to the Agricultural Labor Relations Board. Hall’s confirmation hearing is March 1.

After losing a race for Congress in November 2016, Hall has announced he will make another run in 2018… while he is on the ALRB?

A Whittier cop was killed last week. A Palm Springs cop was killed three months ago. These crimes were avoidable. We, as a state, are paying the price for our own foolishness. Our crime rate is rising, after 20 years of falling. Violent felonies are rising, after 20 years of falling. Minor crime is out of control. Store owners will tell you it is impossible to get anyone to protect their property from petty thieves. After years of record decreases in crime, we are watching it rise again. Police are paying a price, and people are starting to fear again.

Very simple. I had a small role in the passage of three strikes in 1994. We had one simple principle — if someone committed two serious or violent felonies, the third felony, no matter what it was, was a basis for removing the criminal from society for his or her entire life. Why should we wait for a third victim of a serious or violent felony? Why should one more person suffer at the hands of someone who refused to conform to the rules of civil life, that is, don’t hurt or steal from your neighbor? With its passage, we saw a 50% drop in crime in a year, after 35 years of increasing crime… Read More

California State Sen. Janet Nguyen (R-Garden Grove), was forcibly removed from the Senate Thursday morning for offering a different perspective on the late Sen. Tom Hayden, a Democrat with a well-known and lengthy history of communist sympathies.

The perspective Sen. Nguyen offers is first hand. Her family escaped communist Vietnam and came to the United States in search of freedom in 1981 during Ronald Reagan’s presidency.

Sen. Nguyen and I spoke Thursday shortly after the incident. She said Tuesday the Senate had scheduled a memorial for the late former state Sen. Tom Hayden, who died in October. Hayden served 18 years in the Legislature.

The left has always portrayed Hayden as a… Read More

The supreme quality for leadership is unquestionably integrity. Without it, no real success is possible, no matter whether it is on a section gang, a football field, in an army, or in an office. Dwight D. Eisenhower

California is in a crisis. Actually, California has many crises taking place, including a crisis of leadership. This lack of leadership has led to glaring misplaced priorities, and now, a crisis of tremendous proportions of aging and severely damaged infrastructure.

Oroville Dam, Levee Breaches, Flooding

The Oroville Dam Spillway hole appears to be much larger than state officials originally let on.

Levees throughout the Central Valley, Carmel Valley, and Northern California, have breached and flooding is forcing residents to evacuate.

And now a large portion of Highway 50 in El Dorado County in the Sierras has… Read More
