Kristin Olsen: "I am a Cheating, Lying Fraud--And It's All Your Fault!"

The Sacramento Bee finally picked up the story about how grassroots conservative activists helped topple Kristin Olsen as CAGOP Vice Chair.



I had pressured Chris Cadelago of the SacBee to write something, especially since the corrupt, left-wing LA Times just wrote down the same party line coughed up from Kissing Kristin in her resignation letter:

Well, Cadelago finally wrote something:


Republican activists are claiming credit for the resignation of a key party official, but former Assembly Minority Leader Kristin Olsen says she wrestled for months over her decision last weekend to step down as vice chair of the California Republican Party.

Of course she did! And her donors didn't want her to leave, either, since she was bringing in big money. If not for the pressure from the "little people", including myself, who had refused to pull the resolution demanding that she step down, she would have waited out the storm and stayed on.

Olsen, a rising star in the party who serves as an elected supervisor for Stanislaus County, said she was on the fence last year about even taking the job given the duties of public office and her responsibilities as a single mother of three who is trying to grow her consulting business. Before deciding to step down, Olsen said, “I wrestled with this decision for a very long time.”

"Single mother of three" ... when did that happen? For all intents and purposes, she remains married, but in an estranged status, as she stepped out on her husband repeatedly. She wrecked her home with frequent dalliances with other men. Sources have informed me that she not only had an affair with Chad Mayes, but she was also sleeping with Democratic Assembly Adam Gray, too.

In addition to her own busy schedule, Olsen said it became clear she didn’t have the logistical support needed from the party on a project she led to develop “solution-focused leadership (and) messaging focused on everyday Californians” to help expand the GOP’s shrinking ranks.

"Logistical support"? Does that mean having an open marriage? Did she logically believe that we the Republican base were going to tolerate more Democrat-lite selling out on principles?


An ad featuring state Sen. Anthony Cannella, R-Modesto, Assemblyman Adam Gray, D-Merced, and former Assembly Republican Leader Kristin Olsen urged people to support Measure L, a transportation tax measure on the Nov. 8, 2016 ballot. It passed. Gray's Valley Solutions ballot measure committee paid more than $100,000 for the ads, a spokesman said.

So, we have Democrats and Republicans jumping around with each other to raise taxes on Central Valley taxpayers. All of this should work out very well, right?

WRONG!



Olsen’s departure comes as a pair of vocal conservative activists and bloggers were preparing a resolution for the state party’s upcoming convention calling for her censure and resignation. Arthur Christopher Schaper declined Monday to withdraw the resolution, which, among other allegations, restates claims of an affair between Olsen and GOP Assemblyman Chad Mayes. Olsen’s estranged husband sent a letter to the Assembly in April, seeking an investigation into whether any state resources were used to conceal a relationship between the two.

What?



Mayes was ousted from his leadership post in August. Schaper and Joseph Turner, a self-described nationalist hard-liner on illegal immigration issues, helped instigate the shakeup after Mayes led a faction of Republicans to cross party lines and support Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown’s cap and trade climate change program.

YES! YES! YES! Yes we did!

Olsen was one of those who opposed the party turning against Mayes. Yet even some who agreed that Mayes should step down privately complained that an internal power struggle could sidetrack the party’s efforts in next year’s elections to break the Democrats’ two-thirds supermajorities in the Legislature.

Of course she opposed a strong motion of censure against Chad Mayes. She was sleeping with him and helped broker the corrupt Cap and Betrayal deal!

Joseph Turner

 On his blog, Turner questioned Olsen’s stated reasons for stepping away just as activists were “going to wage a holy war against her.” In an interview Monday, he said it is “absolutely laughable” that there was no connection between the conservative activism and resolution and her decision.

There is a growing, widespread connection. I have received calls from people all over the state congratulating me and  Joseph for taking down Mayes and Olsen. Of course, the work is hardly done when it comes to Sacramento, since Mayes negotiated the terms of his surrender and brought in Brian Dahle as the new minority leader.

Olsen said Monday that she only learned about the anticipated resolution on social media, but added she wasn’t surprised that her detractors were trying to take credit for her leaving.

We are taking credit because it's true! She learned about the resolution at length because I shared it on Twitter--and I even attached her to it!

How could she not have known about the growing move to get rid of her? The Chairman Jim Brulte called me and told me to pull the resolution. "Trust me", he said to me. I refused to budge. She needed to step down, and as of now, I see no reason to pull the resolution. This is outrageous! She actually wants to cover her tracks and act like she is being a mature, responsible adult?!

“There are activists within the party who would rather continue the infighting that doesn’t help anyone … than focus on a rebuilding effort where Republican values are moving our state to a better place,” Olsen said. “As long as the party has voices that allow the infighting to be more dominant than the progress and moving forward, that’s a huge concern.”


Full-Blown Reflection

I just have to break out laughing over that last paragraph.

She wants to lecture the voters about a rebuilding the party on Republican values?

She lied to her base, she betrayed the party's values, and she cheated on her husband with at least two different men. Would someone please tell me how Kissing Kristin's disgraceful behavior would have helped build the party?



Then she goes off on the "infighting" in the state party. Who's the cause for all of this upset?

She blames all of us grassroots activists, "voice" that at are more interested in infighting, right? Hey, I would love to have a statewide party that fought for its values and stopped caving to third-house prodding and special interest bribery. I would like to see leadership that took stronger stances against Democratic dominance and refused to jump into bed with tax-hiking, rights-depriving regressives in Sacramento.

And yet the very Republicans whom we send up to Sacramento continue to betray the votes, they co=ntinue to vote for their own convenient self-interest while undermining the public interest, and they bankrupt us in the process.

Cheating Chad Mayes and Kissing Kristin, along with Marital Trouble Marc Steinorth all pledged that "California Deserves Better". They must have met that California lawmakers deserve better, and the rest of us are expected to pay for it.

That's not acceptable, and it's time that we hold the people accountable for  this perverse disregard for our rights and our needs--and the people who have fostered the infighting.

  1. It's about time that Chad Mayes and Kristin Olsen join the DemonRat party and let "real" conservative Republicans run the GOP in Kalifornia. Lets hear it for the grass root activists that are shaping the GOP.

    1. Who the hell do you think you are to be saying that about my mom. You can’t even spell California right. Like come on man if you are gonna talk shit, at least be educated. I’m a damn senior in high school and I’m probably more successful now then you will ever be. My mom made some mistakes yeah everyone does. But at least my mom has the guts to run for office while do nothing nobody’s like you sit on your ass at home. Why publicize these mistakes I get constant bullying at school and comments because of stupid articles like this. It’s two years after this article and I’m just now hearing stuff from my friends about this article. I hope you respond to this because I really want to see your thoughts on this. If you feel the same way after reading this then let’s meet somewhere because I want to talk to you and give our side of the story before you make false assumptions. Same goes for the author of this who is also probably never going to be anyone in life.
