The Latest: With Trump Torching Government at all Levels the Opposition is Torching the CAGOP

by | Feb 11, 2025 | 2024 Elections, 2025 Elections, California Republican Party | 30 comments

This is the version of Trump I thought I was getting in 2016. I want more of this and hopefully the onslaught continues for 4 solid years.

It is clear that Trump and his team started months ago planning about how to strike, where to strike and were prepared for the legal challenges that would ensue. The Government is in a panic as people do not know if they are next to get terminated and the light being shone on the corruption and waste is staggering.

… not to mention that he backed down several foreign countries and the Transgender mob.

So then, with these incredible things happening, how did Donald Trump win. I use CBSBS news exit polls (the same CBSBS that is in deep legal trouble for editing the Kamala Harris interview, amongst other things). CBSBS has a known Dem Bias, so the actual numbers are better than these:

92-7 Among Black Women!?, that is over triple the 2% Trump got in 2020. You’d think with a Black Woman who was run out of the democrat party by the dems abolishing Cash Bail in CA ending her business (allowing criminals to stay out of jail awaiting trial so they can re-offend), that the rank-and-file of the party would be celebrating and promoting this!

Nope. The solution is a bunch of 70-something dinosaurs promoting a 60-something white dude for Chair. I know their candidate for chair, at least I thought I did before seeing his consent for what is being done in his name.

Trump deserves better than this, the CAGOP deserves better than this.

So, let’s summarize a few things that have happened in the last few weeks:

San Benito – had to organize in a secure location because of threats of disruption

Contra Costa – despite a clear supermajority in favor of the existing leadership, disruptions were attempted.

Sutter – unconfirmed reports of attempted disruption

Sacramento – the existing chair had professionals present to deal with disruptions. The current leadership were elected by a slim margin.

Los Angeles – this was deliberately set up for chaos and despite a clear result, the “we-wuz-robbed” crowd are up to the same old tricks from the last 30 years.

Marin – despite the opposition having a clear supermajority of elected members, Tom Hudson was still present to devolve the meeting in to chaos. It was unnecessary as once the meeting was gaveled in to order the 2/3 could have taken over. The party wasted $500 on a room and also had private security present. Pay close attention to what happened in Marin, it feels all to familiar to the 15 years I served in leadership of CRA. There was constant fighting and seldom was cohesion.

Apparently, the paranoia that has gripped the opposition played out in Marin where fantasies of some sort of deep state coup appear to have been overriding the therapeutic effects of prescribed medications.

And now these people are attacking the aforementioned candidate for Chair because she was a democrat up until the mid 2010’s. I am waiting for these people to trash RFK Jr. who is still a democrat despite being appointed to President Trump’s cabinet. I will be waiting a long time as asking for consistency is tantamount to heresy.

Having been thrown out of CRA for amongst other things – not being conservative enough – I am sure the torches are lit and the sabers are sharpened.

Honorable Mention: ELECTION FRAUD

Many of these folks lay awake at night thinking about dominion machines and Chinese hackers. In 28 years of doing campaign work, I know how some fraud happens as I have seen it.  Yet, many don’t seem to care what I have seen, because Hackers and Machines are easier to blame.

Elon Musk has uncovered the mother lode. The USAID and other departments of government were funding election work and “Non-Profits” for years and to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars. You don’t need to stuff ballot boxes when media outlets are on the take, community organizations are little more than extensions of government and the whole welfare system was created to register democrats.

I’ve seen few if any of the fringe social media accounts draw this conclusion. I’ve never seen enough registration fraud and mail ballot fraud to total enough to equal the numbers fantasized about – but now we know why the dems always seem to have an advantage. Siphoning off hundreds of millions of tax dollars in to their machine. But, because I refuse to agree that mail ballots and registration fraud number in the millions some want to burn me for heresy.

You’d think with an opportunity to level the playing field, that the GOP would be unified and working on how to break out of the media cloud. Nope, it is like Lord of the Flies.

  1. “…she was a democrat up until the mid 2010’s. I am waiting for these people to trash RFK Jr. who is still a democrat despite being appointed to President Trump’s cabinet…”

    Cute!

    Many of us were screamed and hurled with years of lectures from pious GOP officials: “We do not support or allow Democrats in power or in our party.”

    Boy…How times have changed.

    Let “recovering” Democrats at the front row seat of power and political appointments while many good standing Republicans are told to stay in the back of the room because you are not good enough.

  2. Heard on the Tom/Toms

    Stephen Frank, Exclusive to the California Political News and Views, 2/5/25 http://www.capoliticalnewsandviews.com

    Corrin Rankin/Kamala Harris vs. President Trump/GOP

    One of the major responsibilities of the Chair of the California Republican Party is to a spokesperson for the Party includes defending the policies of President Trump, the Platform of the Republican National Committee and the Platform of the California Republican Party.

    The Trump Administration just opened an investigation of several UC campuses, including UC Berkeley for discrimination and antisemitism. Our UC system still promotes CRT/DEI and Affirmative Action—all policies based on racial discrimination.

    But first, where is Corrin Rankin on the Life issue?

    This is from an ABC TV interview of Rankin at the 2016 GOP National convention. “I do not want to tell a woman to have a baby or not. I support Roe v. Wade.” Of course the RNC, CRP Platforms are pro-life—as is President Trump. She has the same position on this issue as does Kamala Harris. You will find this at about 1:40 into the interview.

    https://abcnews.go.com/fivethirtyeight/video/fivethirtyeight-black-delegate-speaks-66243288

    We expect our Chair to speak out against these vile practices. So where does Corrin Rankin stand on the race issues? Remember:

    She voted for Obama

    She voted NOT to allow the California Republican Party endorse Donald Trump

    She did attend conventions in favor of Trump—as did thousands of others.

    On January 30, the California Federation of Republican Women held a ZOOM interview with Corrin Rankin and Mike Morrell.

    Corrin was asked why she supported Prop. 16—a ballot measure in support of Affirmative Action. She did not answer (Morrell was opposed to Prop. 16). Rankin has the same position on this as Kamala Harris.
    Rankin was asked why she supported Assemblyman Tom Lackeys’ request of other Republicans not to vote on a bill to have the UC system reinstate affirmative action. This is not a joke—she said that Lackey was having a bad day, and she wanted to cheer him up (Morrell opposes reinstatement of affirmative action in the UC system) Kamala Harris, like Rankin support returning affirmative action.
    When asked why the CAGOP did not endorse Trump, she did not answer. (Morrell supported Trump). Harris, of coursed was happy the GOP did not endorse Trump
    At no time during her interview did she oppose DEI or CRT. In the past she has been a supporter of CRT—just like Kamala Harris (Morrell opposes both CRT and DEI)
    Think about this—how do want your voice heard? By someone who opposes the policies of President Trump, the RNC and CRP Platform? Or someone that stands with you and President Trump.

  3. Of course, we DO have people who’ve switched parties……Like Ms. Gloria Romero:

  4. So, Ms. Romero swapped. Word was/is, it was due to her District turning Redish…not due to some “spiritual intervention” that Republicans are good in California.

    Rankin, seems synonymous with Harris…..but certain “elements” seem content to put her in place, and are attempting to stifle the opposition to do it. SRA/CRA lost a vote due to these shenanigans……wait….they voted for Mr. Morrel. The ones who got screwed did, not the screwers.

    Sacto wants a “nice and sane” status for their committee’s since they GOT a couple of people seated. Not all, but enough, so they say. Enough to be SEEN, and if they play nice, perhaps HEARD as well.

    These blogs seem to indicate that Mr. Hudson, is storm trooping around, causing chaos at Central Committee board meetings, for the purpose of ………..what? Cause he can?
    Cause he WANTS to see a Loser party stay in the LOSER column? He WANTS to see a Jessica Patterson-type, regain control of the STATE party?

    Or because he wants to see Mr. Morrell, with his vast knowledge and experience, win the seat for State GOP politics? Blogger has noted, with all the BS going on, Mr. Morrell is silent on the issue. ??? Is he aware of it? Does he care about the tactics? Or is he simply going with the flow, till he acquires his office? WILL there be change or will there NOT be change? Silent types worry me. Disengaged people, worry me. Chaos actors, worry me.

    Brownshirts……..and their leader……..hmmmm, interesting correlation, if you exclude the names of the times, and focus on just the MOMENT of time. The bloger has noted, just that: Same tactics, different people using them.

    Please also note: I was informed, that our Gov’s race for 2026, isn’t on the plate as of yet.
    In short, they don’t care about it for now, it’s too soon. They’ll worry about 2026, in JAN 2026.

    OLDer than me PEOPLE, think like this. They think, they can WIN with only 8 months time to field a person, and run them for office. THEY believe, this strategy works!! After all, THEY have years of experience in doing this!!!!!

    From the Jaws of defeat there was a victory. Due to stupidity, the moment was lost.

    I must be the only one who seems agitated about 2026. The again, I’m not OLD. (as the blogger noted about 70 year olds)

    If you put your ‘experience’ to use, MY battle would be easier. Le sigh………
    Alas, it’s not meant to be. Oh, who do you think will be THE ONE…….I can hardly wait!!
    (I hope it’s not some 60 year old OLD WHITE guy…good thing I’m hispanic…HEY!! REPUBLICANS NEED hispanics!!! what a novel idea!)

  5. One of the most incoherent blog entries of the past six (sixty?) months.

    Lets’s start out kissing Trump’s rump (which is strange because blogger has MAGAphobia). Then let’s throw out some incomplete and erroneous election analysis on why Trump won and what role black women played (if any) in his victory and how that is relevant (it is not) to this issue of who is gonna be chair. Splash in little esoteric comments about certain counties (who really cares at this point) for some semblance of relevance and purpose of all the characters used in this entry and you got a recipe for gobbly gook nonsense that most Californian voters role their eyes.

    Then, of all things to opine about, blogger takes on election fraud as though he is the last and greatest word on accountability and transparency. Blogger’s take is so out of date and uninformed that I can only assume he is trying to gaslight those who are asking for transparency. Nothing can stop what is coming-no matter how many times blogger demeans those who want election integrity. So when all systems and departments have been demonstratively proven fraudulent and corrupt, will you still hold up our election system as the ONLY ONE that is just perfect? Ha! California was never blue. Confront your cognitive dissonance (a real mental condition) and face the enemy directly. We have a country to save. Why no connection of USAID to election fraud?

    The part about Musk and USAID is preposterous in all ways. Why it is even mentioned in this Frankenstein of a blog entry is beyond comprehension. That deserves a whole lengthy entry of it’s own.

    Blogger says Trump and the CAGOP deserve better. Ha! No mention of the people. WE THE PEOPLE deserve better…from our leaders and our intrepid blogger. Only saving grace of this blog entry is the comments section.

  6. Disgruntled So Cal Trump Hater:

    Please try to see the world as it is and not through a distorted (by design) view of California politics based on party. There is only MAGA.

    BTW, why are you STILL a Trump hater? I mean, when are we all gonna realize Trump and his policies are the way.

  7. @Leo

    Are you slow, simple or stupid?

  8. Speaking of Elections and Trump torching’s………MAYBE, one of you so called, know it all’s, can agree with the letter below. OR, are you like a frightened child, to TAKE a stand??

    ‘Fighting back in a big way’: California mayor battles with city council over deportations | Watch

    MSN

    Good afternoon Mayor Wells and members of the El Cajon City Council,

    As you can see from the attached link, your city has once more, become a news item. Not so much in a good way.

    Hearing what Mr. Wells described, that NGO’s are fighting back against dealing with the Illegal Alien question; how rowdy individuals supported by the “Left leaning organizations”, was not indicative of the political nature we are now all facing. Contrary to popular belief, but in keeping with the current STATE position of lies, deception and misinformation, State law does not trump Federal Law, as it pertains to immigration. I myself am not an attorney, but even with my limited amount of education in the profession, that is either an outright lie or shows an intimate lack of knowledge to the profession. If it was Mr. Bonta’s stance? He should resign immediately for incompetence.

    Beyond that, beyond the words and beyond the politics, we have the illegal entry of numerous individuals entering into our Nation through porus borders. In RUSSIA, you’d be arrested; in China, you’d be arrested; in most Nations with a National Border, you’d be arrested. For some reason, Western Civilization’s are doing the exact opposite. We allow a “citizen” invasion of our lands, at the expense of our Country, for the purposes of what, exactly?

    “We are all Migrants”. We hear that often. Yes, we may well be, and many of us if not all of us, have entered into the United States of America, legally. The process may need to be fixed, but people went through it. They became, citizens of this Nation, legally and lawfully. As an elected official, you also, are required to obey the laws or affect changes to them, by legal means as per your position.

    In short, while our Governor is ignorant of his position, duties and responsibilities; while our Legislature is purposed to NOT defend this State; while our Citizens demand changes and enforcement, unfortunately those who seek to destroy this Nation, will continue with their activities at the expense of us all.

    I cannot speak for others who seek the office for California State Governor for 2026 but I can speak for myself.

    My pledge to the Citizens of El Cajon, to California as a whole, to you the elected members of the City Council of El Cajon, I declare the following:

    On day 2 of my successful election to office, I will declare the “Sanctuary State Status” ended, in California. I will act to suspend SB-54 as it pertains to law enforcement assistance and ICE activities within California. I will encourage Counties and Cities to follow suit and remind their elected leaders of their duties and responsibilities. I will warn them as well as the NGO’s: Actions that encourage, assist and/or support the avoidance of Immigration and Customs Enforcement actions against those who’ve unlawfully entered into California, will not be tolerated and may result in arrest and prosecution.

    As Governor, my duty would be to protect the Citizens of this State from all enemies, foreign and domestic.

    That goal, will be accomplished.

    Thank you Mayor Wells, and the El Cajon City Council, for your stance and support in this matter. I want to assure each and every one of you, contrary to the news articles pronouncement:

    “Out of 18 cities in San Diego County, El Cajon stands alone in this ordinance.”

    No, you are not, and you do not, stand alone. As an Exploratory Candidate for office, you do not nor are you, standing alone. I will be, standing with you. You have MY word, on this matter.

    Regards,

    Leo Naranjo IV (R)
    US Army Ret.
    Exploratory Candidate California State Governor 2026

  9. @Aaron – I let you comment and speak freely on my website.

    I have come to realize it is because you are one of the few people that makes Leo and Charlie make sense.

  10. wait…which @Aaron are you talking too?

    QQ

    you’re having a conversation with yourself???? omg, ….

  11. Naranjo-Melody 2026
    Dumb and Dumber for California.

    @Leo…Didn’t you get a BCD from the Salvation Army?

  12. Aaron (Park)….Now how did I get into this conservation string???? BTW every Delegate I know is supporting Mike Morrell. I have heard him speak numerous times now. Actually sat with him at a dinner. He never attacks Rankin and when ask he simply said ‘I have heard that stuff, but I want to focus I what we can do if (he is) elected’

    That is called leadership…Something the CRP desperately needs!

  13. Colonel – he is about as innocent as you were on shore leave back in the day.

    Dude, you need to get out more and meet more people. Put the Agent Orange down and breath in the fresh clean air… I say this because I care about you.

  14. Wow I have been promoted by Colonel? I thought I was Lance Corporal??? hahahahha. Hey, I know both Rankin and Morrell. It’s a no brainer….Morrell has my support. (and yes I was very innocent on shore leave back in the day….at least at first…hahahahhaha)

  15. Ok Buck Private it is. Dig a latrine hole.

  16. Oh my gawd…not not did you demote me…you transferred me to the Army …’Buck Private’??? OH that is low….hahahhaahh

  17. It would be a shame if MAGA showed up to protest the protest…

    BTW, their announcemnet is beyond ridiculous, and I challenge you to read the entire paragraph. Who do they think they are representing in Placer? Let’s watch all the out-of-towners show up to pump up the numbers.

    https://www.mobilize.us/indivisibleauburnca/event/754446/

  18. On the news tonight: if Harris runs, Rick grannell will run also.
    Wow……a big shot. In the race. How quaint. Losing with style, geeesh….. this party, smh

  19. Leo, I saw that Grannell report. If true he will have Trumps support. Grannell just did some work for him with the Isreal conflict. Trump gave him a ‘that a boy’ at a press conference. Considering any GOP candidate would need to raise about $40 million to have a chance– Grannell might be a good choice.

  20. Ric Grenell has the Midas touch. It might be wasteful to have him as CA governor. But then again, his work for the administration might be finished by this time next year and he would be free to claim the CA governor’s mansion for The People.

  21. Not so new news:
    Chad Bianco is running for CA STATE Governor 2026. My earlier assessment of his candidacy was made in error, and I apologize for being wrong.

    IF, Kamalah Harris runs, Mr. Grenell will enter the race, but ONLY if Harris runs.

    Sad to think, his only reason to run, would be IF Harris runs. So much, for being there, for California.

    More to come.

  22. Who is posting the “Rankin Files” on Youtube? Who’s channel is that?

  23. I was told it’s a PAC somewhere in Sacramento area. But I don’t know the name of the PAC. Regardless, I agree…We don’t need a continuation of Patterson by electing Rankin.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tm264jTYnlQ

  24. Yes Charlie I agree we need those videos BUT we also need transparency. Anybody know who funds that PAC? Their name?

  25. Aaron Melody…I could asked. I am getting them from emails in Spam. But I am not sure they want me know. There could be some backstabbing going on in CRP leadership…so they keep me out of the loop. But there are a lot bigger ducks floating in the pond that me….
