BREAKING: Torrance City Council Passes Resolution of No Confidence in LA County District Attorney George Gascon

 And they said that it could not be done.

But it has been done!


In the wee hours of June 23, 2021, as their council meeting from June 22, 2021 went into overtime, the Torrance City Council voted for the Resolution of No Confidence in corrupt, lawless, pro-criminal Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon!

The final vote tally:


The final vote tally was 5 to 1, with former police officer, child abuse prosecutor and unpopular mayor Pat Furey voting No.

In spite of the fact that the mayor was so perversely recalictrant about this measure, the rest of the city council voted for the Resolution.

We did it!

Many residents and other activists in Los Angeles County told me that this would never happen. Oftentimes, the Torrance city council avoids passing resolutions stating a controversial position on an issue or a candidate.

The city councils in the past have often hewn a consensus conservative position, avoiding difficult issues as much as possible.

The initial pushback that I received from some of the city councilmembers on this issue a few weeks ago was particularly disturbing, and even infuriating. When I spoke to Councilman Mike Griffiths about this resolution, he just cut me off: "Not gonna happen." That kind of dismissive attitude really rankled me. I exposed his opposition the next week, and that lit up a lot of residents in the city.

Councilman Griffiths expressed ongoing dismay or disinterest in supporting the resolution earlier this morning, too. Ultimately, though, he voted for it. The kind of outrage and activism that I took on, that is precisely what it takes to get things done in politics: "In politics, nothing moves unless it's pushed." Griffiths felt the heat, and he saw the light.

I did the same thing with the other city councilmembers who had been sitting on the fence or refused to give a statement of some kind on this very commonsense issue. Not all of them returned my calls, but they got the message, and other people in the city got the message, too.

This outcome shows that you can fight city hall, and win.

Some people--including some of the city councilmembers themselves--did not like my tactics calling them out publicly for not taking a stance or rudely brushing me off.

But my approach worked, and many residents contacted me afterwards to confirm that they wanted the city council to do the right thing, denounce George Gascon, and go on record issuing a Resolution of No Confidence.

We did it, folks!

WINNING!

Delusional Democrats Still Can't Understand Why They Lost So Many National Elections

The Democratic Party is still not learning from their failures. Under Barack Obama, Democrats lost seats all over the country, including blue states. Republican Governors are leading an unprecedented 34 states, and the few Democratic Governors outside of the deep blue states are more conservative.

Did they really think that they could embrace communism without thinking twice about it? Did they really think that the voting public would go along with arrogant, out-of-touch media and academic elites shaming them just for being white, or poor, or working-class individuals?

Of course, the Democratic National Committee in their latest fundraising eblast simply announces their epic losses at the local, state, and federal levels as some kind of unforeseen tragedy:

Join us.
Here's the honest truth, Arthur:

Since 2008, we've lost about a thousand state legislative seats, 12 governorships, and 26 state legislatures, and both houses of Congress -- but 2018 is the year we can start winning them back.

When Tom and I say we need to reach 50 million voters to elect Democrats nationwide, we aren't just saying that to check off a box. That's what it will take to win this November.

Tonight at midnight is a critical FEC deadline -- and what we raise before then will determine how many voters we'll be able to reach by November. So I am asking you today:

Chip in $3 before midnight tonight if you're ready to elect Democrats in all 50 states this year. Winning in November starts with what we do right now.

Thanks for stepping up ahead of tonight's deadline.

Keith

Keith Ellison
Deputy Chair
Democratic National Committee

P.S. -- Right now we're a bit short of hitting our goal, but we're close enough that your contribution could be the one that helps us get there. Donate $3 before tonight's deadline.
It's too bad that national politics has turned into something so consistently cyclical. Why do all of these voters not realize that voting in Democrats will only bring in another set of socialist agitators into power? We need more MAGA, and we can't get that if we have socialist, communists, and anti-American tyrants coming into power.



Keith Ellison has hob-knobbed with notorious anti-Semites, and then there's Tom Perez, a corrupt Hillary Clinton puppet who probably never turned a bribe. The former Labor Secretary won the DNC Chairmanship through a lot of internal manipulation, demonstration to anyone paying attention that the corrupt Wall Street Establishment still runs the Democratic Party.'

What a shameful displace of blind hubris. They just happened to lose all those elected offices after 8 years of Obama. They can't put two and two together? Worse yet, they look poised to win back the House. Do we really want that kind of delusion overseeing appropriations in Washington DC?
