Report: LAGOP Central Committee a Paper Movement, Propped Up By One Donor (?)

Fake Howard Hakes, CAGOP Vice-Chair for Los Angeles County

Now it all makes sense.

For a while, I could not understand why the California Republican Party (also known as the Oligarchy of Failure by Aaron Parks and others) had appointed Howard Hakes to take over as the regional vice-chair for Los Angeles County.

He was a do-nothing RINO who was foolish enough to go along with Andy Gharakani's grifter-machine consultant garbage.

And they were stupid enough to pose for this picture in 2017:

Howard is the pasty one on the right, by the way. Cheating Chad Mayes, in the middle, was the Republican Permanent Minority Leader in the state assembly in 2017, when the Republican caucus betrayed their base and the state and advanced the Cap-and-Trade renewal-betrayal. Some of those Republicans survived primary challenges that year, and Chad Mayes abandoned the GOP and went rogue as a liberal-leaning independent afterwards.

It was a stunning, embarrassing defeat for the California Republican Party, only made worse in 2018 when Republicans dwindled down to 18 seats in the legislature.

Now, back to Fake Howard Hakes ...

According to Steve Frank's California Political News and Reviews, Hakes is the only guy keeping the lights on at the Los Angeles County GOP Central Committee:

Now you have another problem with the LAGOP—they have little or no money.  Their FPPC# is 742145,  When you go to their filing for 4/3/22 through 6/30/22 you will be surprised.  Go to Schedule G and you will see expenses for rent, Executive Director, phones, Constant Contact and more was NOT paid for by the LAGOP.  No, Schedule G is for the reporting of Committee expenses paid for by a third party—in others words the Committee did not pay its own bills.  

They can't even pay their own bills? Are you telling me that the LA County GOP has become the John Fetterman of the California GOP Central Committee system? For those who don't know, John Fetterman is the stroke-victim Democrat US Senate candidate from Pennsylvania who lived off his parents' money into his forties. 

The rumor is that Howard Hakes was the payor of the bills.  He has been a major financier of the Do Nothing Committee, just to keep the doors open.  Too bad they can’t give money this year to candidates, for voter registration or a real GOTV effort.  They could not get candidates to run in the June primary in numerous districts.  The biggest County in the State literally has a paper Central Committee.

Paper tiger, paper central committee, weak and beggarly elements across the board.

I had received so much flak because I quit this Do-Nothing committee early last year. I see that my judgment was correct to quit as soon as I realized how corrupt and useless it is. This is a telling vindication.

And now we know why the CAGOP put Fake Howard Hakes in the regional vice-chairmanship: he's willing to spend his own money to keep the lights on and save the failing CAGOP from more embarrassment.

RPLAC Still Silent on Cheating Chad Mayes: Why?

The Republican Party of Los Angeles County has turned into another agent of stagnation and wasted opportunities.

The Orange County Republicans are getting busy. They work to register voters.

They are hitting the pavement to get rid of Josh Newman, the state senate Democrat who should have never won SD-27 in the first place.

Let's talk about how San Diego's Republican Party demanded a motion of censure against Chad Mayes and are pushing for his ouster.

Cheating Chad is finding that there are fewer friends willing to rally around him. What a complete betrayal of principles, and such disastrous behavior does not win friends.

And yet ... where is the Republican Party of Los Angeles County?

Why haven't they moved on this issue?

Check out all the CAGOP Central Committees who have demanded Mayes' ouster:

But where is the Republican Party of Los Angeles County?

Why are they silent on this matter?

I have heard from two central committees -- AD 50 and AD 55 -- have already passed their own resolutions.

What about RPLAC?

I wonder why indeed they are taking their time ...

CAGOP Central Committees Demand Mayes' Ouster, Except RINO-PLAC (No Surprise)

American Children First Founder Joseph Turner assembled an incredible list of contacts and information from different Republican groups throughout the state of California.

Check out how many state Central Committees have demand that Cheating Chad Mayes, the Assembly Permanent Minority Leader, step down for orchestrating the corrupt and harmful Cap and Trade "compromise" which is hurting and will further damage the disintegrating middle class in California.

Several county central committees are now getting on board. Here is the list with links to the letters:

• Orange County Central Committee
• San Diego C​ounty Central Committee
• Fresno County Central Committee
• Merced County Central Committee
• Madera County Central Committee
• San Luis Obispo County Central Committee
• Mariposa County Central Committee
• Tulare County Central Commitee

Turner points out that Riverside and San Bernardino Counties are missing from this list.

What we see is the very bad, very frustrating politics within politics which has hurt Republican chances for growth and opportunity in California.

Turner reports:

The Riverside County Central Committee voted to summon Assemblyman Mayes to the next meeting for an explanation before voting on a resolution calling for his resignation. Apparently, several members of the body were unaware of this new thing called the Internet where one can listen and hear the reasons Mayes gave for his vote.

The San Bernardino County Central Committee, chaired by Jan Leja, has been silent thus far. Reports suggest that they have cancelled the meeting to protect Mayes and Marc Steinorth (Rancho Cucamonga) from being confronted for their votes.'

Strangely, though, San Diego Central Committee slammed Mayes, and one of the other Cap-n-Traitors was North San Diego County Assemblyman Rocky Chavez. There is no reason not excuse to cover for any elected official.

Of course, another county is specifically missing from this growing list of central committees demanding Mayes' resignation:

The Republican Party of Los Angeles County

It's crystal clear that the RINOs are currently running things in some of the larger counties in California. What a shame.

The RINO-PLAC executive leaders have no interest in taking any kind of lead on anything. They have no regard for the rule of law. They have no interest in fighting for any kind of values, either.

Is it any surprise that Republicans continue to lose ground in the most populous county in the state?

Shame on Chairman Richard Sherman! Don't conservatives deserve something better, more robust than the flabby status quo?

 But then again, maybe we shouldn't be surprised to begin with:

The crash of New Majority RINOs
They like sellouts like Mayes.

And let's not forget what constitutes current "leadership" in Los Angeles GOP circles:

RINO-PLAC Chairman
Richard "Do Nothing" Sherman

Gary SCAM-inoff

Janice the Webb

More RPLAC Fails: Done David, Cheating Chad, Howard Fakes, and Andy Gimme-Candy

In the above photo you will see the three biggest RINOs yet.

First, there's the corrupt and unpleasant Andy Gharakani, aka Gimme-Candy.

He basically helps fund the useless, feckless, and now morally bankrupt Republican Party of Los Angeles County Central Committee.

He was also part of the reason why the charter for the Beach Cities Republicans was taken away--for no reason at all.

Then there's Cheating Chad Mayes! He lost his wife, he lost whatever morals he claimed to possess, and now he's about to lose his leadership position as head of the dwindling minority caucus in Sacramento.

Then there's this other loser named Howard Hakes.

He is running for US Senate, and he's a proud member of the New Minority. They don't want to win. They want to define "majority" in terms of the least objectionable Democrat or squishy RINO.

The goal is to protect their pocketbooks, their business interests.

Oh brother.

But with the latest fallouts for the liberal lunacy claiming to be Republicans I can still claim that there is some winning.

The winning!

The winning is just too much.

I was so sad on Monday, when 8 Republican members of the state legislature caved on compromised on whatever principles they had.

At the same time, this fail had to happen.

We the People of the state of California  need to wake up.

The Deep State of Sacramento, the Swamp, the Third House, whatever you want to the collective of crony capitalists and special interests are running our government, not our elected officials, and therefore not us.

It's time for the grassroots to grow from the weeds to the trees.

It never said in the Constitution "We the Republicans" or "We the Democrats."

The preamble is very clear: "We the People".

Why don't we visit the Declaration of Independence, too?

So, what is there to celebrate, of a sort?

1. David Hadley drops out of the Governor's race.

This is great news on so many levels.

First, this ensures a narrower field of Republican contenders. Yes, it's still a long shot, but at least there are only two strong contenders for the nomination.

Second, this is a major blow the Munger's Millions. All the money in the world will not make voters excited about a candidate who is ... not exciting.

Not only that, but Hadley rejected Trump. This decision burned up the grassroots really badly. Republican groups in Palos Verdes refused to help him because of this decision. Other activists told me plainly how outraged they were by this decision. They had had enough.

I am beginning to think that maybe part of the reason Trump did so poorly in the 66th AD district was that Hadley had turned off voters and they decided not to vote at all. Maybe it was a causation thing.

If Hadley has been a proud or at least simply stated "I will vote for Trump", then get back to running his own race, all would have gone better.

Who knows?

So the Third reason this is big: NeverTrumps are now NeverWinners.

It's about time that they get called out on their lack of principle.

Consider how off-based and out-of-touch Hadley was on the Trump issue.

The Torrance-based Daily Breeze announced that Hadley voted for Libertarian in Name Only Gary Johnson. That is deeply troubling, too. Who wants a Republican governor who refused to support the President?

Not me. That's one reason why I am leaning toward Travis Allen, since he has not run away from his support for the President, before and after his election in 2016.

Now, who was putting big money and hopes into Hadley's gubernatorial bid?

The Republican Party of Los Angeles County Central Committee! And now their hopes are further dashed. What little pull and heft they claimed to possess, it has all fallen away!

Boohoo!

Janice Webb
Caught in her own devices

Fourth, the downfall of Hadley's bid for Governor and their happy photo-op with Chad Mayes exposes how corrupt the RINO LA County Central Committee has become.

Just look at the above photo, and you can see that these three losers were fraternizing together. Now RPLAC is well-known as the corrupt group that shuts down volunteer organizations and hob-knobs with cheaters and traitors.

What little credibility they had ... is now gone.

Fifth: Janice Webb, the puppet for Andy Gimme-Candy, Gary SCAM-inoff, and Mark "The Weasel" Vafiades has been thoroughly discredited, useless, and unimportant.

What a victory for the grassroots.

Now it's time for conservatives, for hard-core passionate Republicans in word and deed to take over these central committees and run for office!

UPDATE: 5:55pm

The corrupt central committee has even more egg on their face.

As very few people know, Hadley gave an hour long presentation at the last RPLAC central committee on July15, 2017.

He spoke for 40 minutes!

He was revved up, pumped up, ready to take on the race!

He even fielded questions for another 20 minutes. When it came to the question about "Who did you vote for?" Hadley gave a long, convoluted answer. Then admitted he had voted for Gary Johnson for President.

Unreal.

Shameful.

It is any surprise that he dropped out five days later? Who in the Republican Party of California would want to vote for this guy?
