I want to thank everyone who has encouraged me to run in the Recall election. I can’t tell you how humbled and appreciative I am.
I got involved with the
Recall in a supporting role: to help support the countless Californians who
worked tirelessly, heroically, to build the greatest citizens movement in our
history. I didn’t do so with any intention of being a candidate.
As I’ve traveled the
state, I’ve had the chance to meet many of you in person. I’ve listened to your
input, and have learned so much. I’ve thought about what it will take to get
our movement across the finish line. And I’m ready to play whatever role gives
us the greatest chance to make that happen.
To that end, Orrin
Heatlie, the Lead Proponent of the Recall, has offered to organize a committee
of Recall leaders to explore that question: whether my candidacy would best
serve the goals of removing Newsom and bringing the fundamental change
California needs.
At this point, much
about the race remains unsettled. That includes the election date, which is
looking like September but could be November. The field is also still taking
shape. For instance, former acting Director of National Intelligence Ric
Grenell is still considering a bid, and he’d be an immediate frontrunner.
So before taking any formal
steps, I’m going to trust in the citizens who built this movement. Orrin’s
group will account for all dynamics in advising on the best path forward. And
I’d love to hear from you directly – just reply to this email!
Running for Governor is
never something undertaken lightly, and that’s especially true at this moment.
Any candidate must approach the task with the greatest measure of humility and
the highest sense of responsibility.
But also, with a sense
of possibility: an earnest excitement for what we can achieve together, as we
endeavor not just to fire America’s worst governor but to save America’s
greatest state.
We’ve already made
history. Now comes the fight for California’s future.
Dennis Prager just released a video about the importance of fathers.
Yes, Dads matter.
When I was growing up, however, my mother gave off this perverse impression that Dads do NOT matter. She even reduced the roles and importance of fathers to "provider and protector." She also said nasty things about men in general, since she was so bitter towards her father and her husband, and of course that would slop onto me, too.
I look back on all of that abuse, and it finally all makes sense what I was going through as a kid. My mother was indeed, crazy, but more seriously, she was so bitter and angry.
During high school, our mother (my sister and I) were walking around the Old Ports o' Call in San Pedro. We stopped at one of the tables near the fish market, and she led us through another one of her legalistic Bible studies.
I remember saying to her: "It seems that moms are all that matter. Why are Dads important, then?"
I get sick to my stomach when I think about this statement. I actually said that, and at the time, I really believed that fathers did not matter. So much of the hate that had been coming out of my mother's mouth was so denigrating towards men. It was a very sad time.
Today, I know very well that fathers matter. I submit that fathers matter even more than mothers, especially considering the increased societal breakdown which we are witnessing around the world.
It was such abuse that my mother treated fathers in general with such contempt. But Dads do matter!
Over the last three days, I have exposed a number of people on the Torrance City Council, men and women who are not taking a firm, courageous stance to put the city on recording with a Resolution of No Confidence in corrupt, pro-criminal Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon.
Now, I want to focus on one of the worst mayors in the state of California, and certainly in the history of Torrance: Pat Furey.
This guy got elected because two more qualified candidates for mayor split the vote. This happened two times in a row, and it's quite disgusting. This guy has no business sitting on the dais. He violated campaign finance laws in the city of Torrance. He has been one of the rudest, most incompetent heads of the city in recent memory. He cannot even control a meeting properly, ever since Black Lives Matter burst into the city council chambers in 2018 and began harassing the council and residents in the chambers.
This man is a disgrace. Jared Sidney Torrance is rolling over in his grave, to think that such perverted incompetence has become so commonplace.
This guy can't even take the lead to push forward a Resolution of No Confidence in Los Angeles County DA George Gascon.
Torrance deserves better. We need real leadership on the city council, not some wishy-washy weakness that cares more about virtue-signaling than actual virtue.
Pat Furey used to be a prosecutor in the Los Angeles District Attorney's office! One would think that he would go on record opposing Gascon and supporting a Resolution of No Confidence in George Gascon.
What is his problem?!
Contact Torrance Mayor Pat Furey, and tell him to stop siding with corruption and pro-criminal policies, and tell him to support a Resolution of No Confidence against Gascon!

Dear Torrance City Council:
To the current leadership of the California Republican Party:
My name is Arthur Schaper, and I am a delegate to the state party, having served as the GOP nominee for the 66th Assembly District in Los Angeles County.
I just found this tweet from Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel:
https://twitter.com/GOPChairwoman/status/1400212885595426824
Happy #PrideMonth!@GOP is proud to have doubled our LGBTQ support over the last 4 years, and we will continue to grow our big tent by supporting measures that promote fairness and balance protections for LGBTQ Americans and those with deeply held religious beliefs.
— Ronna McDaniel (@GOPChairwoman) June 2, 2021
This is abhorrent and disgusting.
The Republican Party was founded on ending the twin relics of barbarism: slavery and polygamy.
Polygamy is a detestable practice which reduces women (and children) to property while undermining the inherent dignity of men.
The point is: pro-family policies must be defended at all costs in the Republican Party.
The idea that the Republican Party should welcome sexual deviancy and degeneracy as some kind of iteration of the Civil Rights Movement, or that sexual perversion should be treated as another class of essential being is anti-science and unconstitutional.
Human beings are not "born" gay. Even openly gay academics like Camille Paglia have recognized this fact. There is also a growing body of research which confirms that there is no "gay gene":
https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-02585-6
We need to be the "pro-science" as well as the pro-natural law party.
I must remind all of you of the clear dictates of our nation's founding principles:
"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."
The laws of nature recognize male and female, and recognize that marriage is a sacrament, an institution of one man and one woman. The head of our party should not be celebrating homosexuality, transgenderism, and like degenerate behaviors. There is no place for this perversity in conservatism.
The RNC Chairwoman must retract this outrageous tweet, which suggests that LGBT behaviors are concrete identities deserving of full support and protection. The California Republican Party must go on record opposing such perverse, improper declarations, as well.
We cannot allow our culture to descend into a malaise of cultural Marxism masquerading as "tolerance, inclusiveness, and diversity."
There are a number of behaviors and ideas which cannot be tolerated. They include the destruction of innocent life (abortion), the limitation of self-defense (gun control), and the destruction of the natural family (homosexuality, transgenderism, no-fault divorce, etc.)
As a delegate to the state party, I expect a response on this matter.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Councilman Herring:
I read your editorial published in the Daily Bulletin, entitled "Black Lives Matter, Mr. Mattucci".
I must say that I found the
tone and the conclusions of this editorial quite surprising and striking for
their serious disregard for facts and evidence.
You claim that "systemic racism that has existed in Torrance since its corporation in 1921."
Would you please explain which systems in the city of Torrance exhibit this racism, and what is your proof of this racism?
Your article did not cite anything specific. In fact, in a city council meeting in 2018, you declared that Torrance could not be a racist city, since the residents had elected you to the city council, and you were the highest vote-getter in the 2016 City Council election.
You assert that "Black Lives Matter is not a terrorist group." However, Black Lives Matter spokesman and activists have talked about taking land from white people in public forums. One of the leaders in New York City stated the following: "If this country doesn't give us what we want, then we will burn down this system and replace it." They have claimed that cities with a multi-ethnic heritage like Carson were founded "white supremacy", and in fact I recall that members of Black Lives Matter call you yourself a white supremacist. They have rallied around and then toppled monuments and statues throughout the United States, including memorials for African-American soldiers who fought for their own freedom and their fellow countrymen during the American Civil War. A number of times, BLM protesters have chanted "Pigs in a blanket, fry 'em like bacon." These phrases were directed at police officers. These are violent statements, implying perverse threats against police officers.
BLM protests have erupted into riots in many cities across the United States. They have destroyed businesses, homes, attacked police precincts. They have even attacked and murdered other black lives. They have repeatedly intimidated elected officials by disrupting public meetings and preventing other citizens from being heard in these public meetings. I personally have been assaulted and my life threatened by these activists. I must remind you that many of the businesses destroyed in these riots were owned by African-Americans.
Violence, acts of intimidation, destruction of property -- are not these behaviors examples of domestic terrorism?
Mr. Herring, you stated the following in your editorial:
"Mr. Mattucci, when we say that Black lives matter, we are not saying that other lives do not matter."
"We are saying that all lives cannot matter until Black lives matter and receive that same justice."
What is your basis for the assertion that black lives are not receiving the same justice as everyone else?
Are
you implying that Asian-American lives, which are most often harmed and
harassed by black lives, do not matter?
Are
you aware that the massive homicide rate in black communities is a result of
black-on-black crime?
Are
you aware that many black lives are lost because of abortion, and that Planned
Parenthood, founded by an embittered racist named Margaret Sanger, deliberately
targeted black communities for extermination via abortion?
Are
you aware that in predominantly Democrat-run urban areas, most of the black
homicides occur?
