Political Action this Week begins with Cromnibus

Posted by Douglas V. Gibbs

After the completion of the latest Constitution Radio with Douglas V. Gibbs program, during which we had as guests Tim Donnelly (Candidate for Congress, District 8), Harry Ramos (Candidate for Murrieta City Council, District 2), and Judge Steven Bailey (Candidate for California State Attorney General), let's turn our attention to the business at hand coming up.

In the Pass Area the Banning-Beaumont-Cherry Valley Tea Party worked with other groups to hold a rally for Kimberlin Brown-Pelzer for Congress at the Farms' House Restaurant parking lot in Banning until 5:oo pm on Saturday.

On September 25, 2018, the Riverside County Board of Supervisors are attempting to enact GPA 1227, a change the General Plan that would change the status of Rural Communities to Urban. Citizens are organizing and requesting protest letters to be sent to the Supervisors and to attend the Board of Supervisors Meeting on Tuesday, September 25th at 9:00 am. The Riverside County Board of Supervisors meeting will be at 4080 Lemon Street in Riverside.

The push to advise Murrieta voters of how bad the raise in the city's sales tax is only beginning.

In Washington, the U.S. Senate passed the “cromnibus” to fund the government through December 7, and it is a spending nightmare. The House will vote on the legislation next week.  Contact your Congress Critter now to urge them to vote against this monstrosity.  Don't know who your Congressman is?  https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative

The cromnibus maintains last year’s bloated spending levels, lacks conservative policy riders, and is the culmination of a failed appropriations process this year which consistently blocked conservative priorities.  In short, the establishment of liberal progressive crazies, and their Democrat-light colleagues in the GOP, are up to their same old bloated unconstitutional spending tricks again.  Had Congress worked with our President, and passed President Trump’s recession package earlier this year, the fake “savings” they claim is funding the cromnibus would have been returned to the American people instead of funneled into other federal programs.  Federal spending is running rampant as Congress scrambles to finish as many appropriations bills as possible before federal funding expires on September 30.

Monday the Judge Kavanaugh hearings continue.  Senator Grassley of the Senate Judiciary Committee continues to handle the allegations against Judge Kavanaugh with leadership and strength. He has offered the opportunity for Judge Kavanaugh’s accuser Christine Blasey Ford to make her case, and I hope the GOP realizes who she is, and what she is, and points out her connection (through her brother) to the fake Russian Dossier put out by Fusion GPS.  Christine Blasey Ford is a dirty Democrat Party scoundrel operative and she is being used in this as a part of the deliberate effort to discredit the Judge’s character and delay the confirmation.

Also, in your area there are plenty of things to do. Are you being active?  Do you have a "Yes on Prop. 6" sign in your yard so that you can play a part in repealing the California killing Gas Tax?  I volunteer at the Temecula Riverside County GOP Headquarters on Monday, Thursday and Friday.  Stop by, get a sign, and information on your Republican Candidates.

And, don't forget, my Constitution Study Groups are in full swing.  Join us, and learn how to right the ship.

Tuesdays, 6:00 pm, Corona Constitution Class, AllStar/CARSTAR Collision, 522 Railroad Street, Corona, CA

Wednesdays, 6:00 pm, Temecula Constitution Class, Riverside County Republican Party HQ, 28120 Jefferson Ave., Temecula, CA (tucked between the cigar shop, and the tattoo shop)

As for local clubs, don't forget the Murrieta-Temecula Republican Assembly (www.mtra.club), and the Banning-Beaumont-Cherry Valley Tea Party (www.bbcvteaparty.com) who meets Tuesdays for breakfast, 8:00 am, at the Farms' House Restaurant, 6261 Joshua Palmer Way, Banning.

Finally, I will be speaking for about 10 minutes about our Natural Rights at the Temecula Valley Republican Women's Federated on October 16 in what I am hoping will become a continuing series of talks.
