Deep State Villain Fades? Robert Mueller Reportedly Moved Into Memory Care Facility

0

(DC Pundit) – It looks like the man who once led the FBI and fronted the so-called “Russia collusion” investigation into President Donald Trump is now facing a far less public chapter in life. According to investigative journalist Paul Sperry, former FBI Director Robert Mueller, now 80, has reportedly been residing in a memory-care facility for the last few years.

Sperry, writing for RealClearInvestigations, divulged: “House Oversight Committee has subpoenaed Robert Mueller to appear for a Sept. 2 deposition to provide details from an FBI investigation of Jeffrey Epstein from decades ago — even though sources tell me Mueller has been living in a memory-care facility for the past few years.”

That’s right. House Oversight Chairman James Comer just dropped a legal sledgehammer with a round of subpoenas targeting a long list of usual suspects from the Deep State Rolodex. Former President Bill Clinton? Check. Hillary Clinton? Of course. James Comey? Naturally. Robert Mueller? He made the list too, although whether he’ll even realize it is another matter altogether.

Chairman Comer announced on Monday that the House Oversight Committee issued subpoenas to a slew of political elites and entrenched bureaucrats tied to various scandals, including Russiagate, a taxpayer-funded circus that was sold to the American public with all the credibility of a late-night infomercial.

Mueller was subpoenaed to testify under oath on September 2, specifically about his role in the FBI’s past handling of Jeffrey Epstein. Talk about irony. The man who couldn’t remember basic facts during his 2019 congressional testimony is now being asked to dig into events that took place decades ago.

Let’s not forget that infamous 2019 appearance before Congress, when Mueller looked less like a man in control and more like someone who’d wandered into the wrong meeting. He fumbled, stammered, and continually flipped through notes like a nervous high schooler unprepared for a final exam. That moment made it painfully clear that Mueller was never the brains behind the operation. He was simply the frontman, trotted out for optics while the real work was carried out behind the curtain.

That work, as many have pointed out, was largely orchestrated by Andrew Weissmann, Mueller’s top deputy, a man known for his aggressive, partisan legal tactics. The Russia hoax wasn’t Mueller’s baby, it was Weissmann’s. There’s also Rod Rosenstein and the DOJ brass who gave it their blessing. The whole thing had the fingerprints of partisan ambition all over it, not a passionate search for truth the media tried to sell it as.

As for the current state of Mueller’s mental faculties, Sperry’s report raises real concerns. If he’s truly in a memory-care facility, then dragging him before a House deposition seems more symbolic than substantive. It also raises some uncomfortable questions: How much did Mueller really know about the investigation that bore his name? And who was actually calling the shots?

Whether Mueller can meaningfully testify or not, the Committee’s broader aim is to expose the rot that enabled years of politically driven investigations, media hysteria, and wasted public resources.

Mueller may be fading from public view, but the consequences of the operation he was the face of are still very much alive. And for millions of Americans who watched their president be smeared and investigated without cause, that accountability is long overdue.

Whistleblower: Former AG Bill Barr Caught Using Burner Phones In Shocking Immigration Scam For Elites! (VIDEO)

0

(DC Pundit) – Project Veritas has once again cracked open a can of political worms, this time, featuring none other than former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr and longtime political commentator Armstrong Williams. According to a bombshell report released Tuesday, a whistleblower is alleging that Barr and Williams are involved in an illegal visa operation that benefits the world’s wealthiest elites while thumbing its nose at America’s immigration laws.

The whistleblower, Patrícia Lélis, a former Brazilian journalist who worked at Howard Stirk Holdings, says she was targeted and prosecuted after taking her concerns to the FBI. Lélis is currently in hiding overseas, a detail that gives you an idea of just how serious she believes the situation to be.

“It is way more easy to defraud the immigration system and the government more than people think. And I have proof of that because that’s what Armstrong [Williams] and [Former Attorney General] Bill Barr does,” Lélis told Project Veritas.

Lélis claims that billionaires and wealthy foreign nationals are exploiting America’s E-2 visa program, intended for investors, by setting up shell companies that exist only on paper. And rather than being a silent observer, she says Bill Barr is actively involved in the entire scheme, allegedly using burner phones to stay off the radar.

Text messages reviewed by Project Veritas appear to show Armstrong Williams directing Lélis to receive $700,000 into her personal bank account to draft a business plan for Peter and Vivienne Reis’ E-2 visa application. Lélis raised alarms about the lack of a contract and the false portrayal of her as a legal expert rather than a journalist. Instead of receiving reassurance, she got threats.

“$700,000 is nothing… you are living in the richest country in the world…stop asking so many questions and do your job if you don’t want to lose your greencard,” Williams allegedly fired back via text.

So much for transparency and ethics.

Lélis further revealed that once the visas were granted, it became clear that there was never any intention to actually run a business. “Bill Barr knows the companies that they launched for the visa was not real companies,” she stated. “After they got their visas, I discovered they do not have any plan to open and operate the company. So, it’s basically like they create a fake company that I helped to create with them.”

Project Veritas dug deeper, inspecting the address listed for “Reis Cosmetics,” the supposed business supporting the visa application. According to local witnesses, no such company has ever operated at the address, nor is there any evidence of actual business activity.

Perhaps most disturbingly, Lélis claims Barr and Williams ensured the visas were “automatically approved”—bypassing even the basic government review process. “They don’t even go through a government approval process; they’re automatically approved,” the whistleblower said.

Project Veritas corroborated her claims with travel records showing that Peter and Vivienne Reis are still freely traveling in and out of the United States. Meanwhile, “Reis Cosmetics” is listed as inactive.

So what we appear to have here is a system tailor-made for the ultra-wealthy to skirt U.S. law, facilitated by high-profile figures who are supposed to be upholding it. If the allegations prove true, it raises some very serious questions, not just about Barr and Williams, but about how deeply the rot goes inside the immigration approval pipeline.

WATCH: Sydney Sweeney Ambushed In Public — Unhinged Leftist Calls Her “Racist” For Promoting Jeans

(DC Pundit) – The unhinged left has found their newest target, Hollywood actress Sydney Sweeney, whose crime against humanity was apparently starring in a jeans commercial. Yes, a denim advertisement has triggered the perpetually outraged mob into yet another spectacular meltdown.

On July 23, American Eagle launched its bold fall denim campaign starring Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican who clearly didn’t get the memo that conservative actors are supposed to hide in Hollywood’s shadows. The ad plays on a simple pun: “genes” versus “jeans,” with Sweeney famously crossing out “genes” to replace it with “jeans.”

Exclusive Content Alert! Get your hands on 10 in-depth articles that expose the truth they desperately want to hide — from Big Tech censorship to border chaos, gun rights, socialism, election integrity, and more. Stay informed, stay ahead—click here to read now!
***********

In the commercial’s voiceover, she delivers what any rational person would consider harmless wordplay: “Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality, and even eye color. My jeans are blue.”

That innocent wordplay was all it took to send the far left into a full-blown meltdown that would make a toddler’s tantrum look dignified by comparison. The professional grievance industry immediately sprang into action, manufacturing outrage where none should exist.

Some accused the ad of echoing eugenics and white supremacist beauty ideals, citing her blonde hair and blue eyes as part of a subliminal message. Because apparently having natural blonde hair and blue eyes while appearing in a denim ad is now a dog whistle. The mental gymnastics required to reach this conclusion deserve Olympic recognition.

A Kean University professor even likened the pun to rhetoric straight out of the American eugenics movement. One has to wonder what this professor’s students are learning if their educator can’t distinguish between a clothing advertisement and historical atrocities. Perhaps the real concern should be the quality of education being provided at institutions where faculty members see white supremacy in fashion marketing.

This manufactured controversy perfectly illustrates the left’s desperate search for racism in every corner of American life. When your political movement depends on perpetual victimhood and constant outrage, you eventually run out of legitimate grievances and start attacking actresses for selling jeans.

Sweeney, known for her roles in “Euphoria” and “The White Lotus,” has previously faced criticism from Hollywood’s thought police and this latest incident proves that even the most mundane commercial work isn’t safe from the cancel culture vultures.

At the Desert 5 Spot premiere of Americana in Hollywood, Sweeney arrived in classic fashion—pale-yellow gown, hair in old-school waves, black SUV pulling up. As she stepped out, a woman in the crowd confronted her, likely another foot soldier in the left’s army of perpetual offense-takers.

When modeling jeans becomes grounds for accusations of promoting white supremacy, we’ve officially entered clown world territory.

BOMBSHELL: Deep State Caught Red-Handed Blocking Texas Recount!

0

(DC Pundit) – In the kind of story that would be front-page news if a Republican had done it, a Texas judge just pulled off a maneuver that reeks of corruption, but the national media couldn’t be bothered.

Down in South Texas, voters in the state’s 28th Congressional District, home to Laredo and the busiest trade port with Mexico, are still waiting for answers in a race marked by allegations and affidavits.

Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX), now in his 11th term in Congress, is under federal indictment. He and his wife allegedly accepted more than $600,000 in payments from foreign sources between 2014 and 2021. Not from lemonade stands or book deals, but from an Azerbaijani state-owned oil company and a Mexican bank. A real international grab bag.

Three of Cuellar’s top aides have reportedly flipped and are cooperating with prosecutors, yet Cuellar marched right back onto the 2024 ballot with barely a peep from the media or any real pushback from his party.

After the election, Republican challenger Jay Furman did what any self-respecting candidate would do when something smells off, he contested the results. He submitted over 80 affidavits and hundreds of sworn declarations from voters who said Furman’s name was nowhere to be found on their ballots. These weren’t anonymous tips or social media rants. These were formal, signed statements made under penalty of perjury.

A Texas appellate court took it seriously, at first. The Fourth Court of Appeals ordered Webb County Judge Tano Tijerina to launch an immediate forensic ballot review.

Tijerina refused.

Instead of a proper recount, Furman’s challenge was tossed aside like last week’s junk mail. And wouldn’t you know it? The very same Judge Tijerina, who blocked the review, is now “considering” a run for that very same congressional seat. That’s right: the referee decided to bench one team, call the game early, and then announced he’s suiting up to play.

You’d think this would raise some eyebrows. But not a single major media outlet has touched the story. Not one investigative reporter has asked the obvious: why was a judge with a direct conflict of interest allowed to decide the outcome?

Then come the numbers. Donald Trump won the district by 7 points in 2024. Yet Cuellar supposedly won his race, on the same day, on the same machines, by 5 points. That’s a 13-point swing for those keeping score. Explain that without a recount.

Furman remains in limbo, still waiting on the official recount certification from the Texas Secretary of State, one that was mistakenly sent to the wrong congressional committee.

Meanwhile, the media elite, so eager to amplify every fabricated whisper of Trump-Russia collusion, have nothing to say about a judge blocking a recount and then running for Congress. Silence is the new strategy.

This isn’t just about South Texas. If election integrity is optional, democracy becomes theater. And Americans aren’t buying tickets anymore.

SMOKING GUN: Hillary Clinton Personally Approved Plot To Frame Trump — These Declassified Files Prove It!

(DC Pundit) – Newly declassified intelligence documents have blown the lid off a disturbing chapter in American political history, confirming what many conservatives have long suspected: Hillary Clinton approved of a plan to smear Donald Trump with bogus Russia collusion claims to distract from her own growing email scandal. And yes, the Obama administration knew about it.

The documents, released Thursday, stem from two memos collected by Obama-era intelligence agencies ahead of the 2016 election. They detail private conversations between top Democratic Party operatives and George Soros’ Open Society Foundations, revealing a carefully coordinated strategy to link Trump with the Kremlin, even if it meant manufacturing the narrative out of thin air.

According to one of the bombshell memos, Clinton “approved a plan proposed by one of her foreign policy advisors, Julianne Smith, to ‘smear Donald Trump by magnifying the scandal tied to the intrusion by the Russian special services in the pre-election process to benefit the Republican candidate.’”

Translation: distract the public with smoke, mirrors, and Moscow — while quietly sweeping her classified email debacle under the rug.

Another memo laid out the opposition playbook, stating that the Clinton team, “with support from special services,” was preparing “scandalous revelations of business relations between Trump and the ‘Russian Mafia.’” These were nothing more than salacious political fairy tales, aimed at steering the media and public away from her own misdeeds.

But it gets worse. The memos also suggest that then-President Barack Obama may have intervened to shut down the FBI’s investigation into Clinton’s reckless use of a private email server to handle highly classified government communications while she was Secretary of State. Nothing to see here, folks, just your government hard at work protecting the powerful.

The memos further revealed that the Trump-Russia narrative was seeded nearly a year before Obama ordered a post-election intelligence review parroting the same accusations in December 2016. That review, published the following January, relied heavily on the now-debunked Steele dossier, a political hit job funded by the Clinton campaign and the DNC.

Yes, that same discredited dossier that former MI6 agent Christopher Steele assembled, which was then funneled into the media through FBI-linked tech firms like CrowdStrike and ThreatConnect.

One email from Soros official Leonard Bernardo revealed the plan’s roadmap: “During the first stage of the campaign, due to lack of direct evidence, it was decided to disseminate the necessary information through the FBI-affiliated … technical structures … from where the information would then be disseminated through leading U.S. publications.”

In other words, when facts were scarce, propaganda filled the void.

Another message, dated July 27, 2016, explicitly stated, “HRC approved Julia’s idea about Trump and Russian hackers hampering U.S. elections. That should distract people from her own missing email, especially if the affair goes to the Olympic level.”

And they almost pulled it off, if not for special counsel John Durham’s tireless multi-year investigation that uncovered this orchestrated charade. Durham worked closely with both the CIA and FBI, who assessed the intelligence as “likely authentic,” and confirmed it wasn’t a product of Russian misinformation.

What millions of Americans already knew instinctively, that the Russia narrative was a politically-motivated farce, is now backed by declassified intelligence. The Democrats didn’t just bend the truth. They broke it, twisted it, and fed it to the media like it was gospel.

ALERT: Kash Patel Uncovers Secret Stash Of Russia Hoax Docs Hidden In “Burn Bags” — THOUSANDS Of Files!

(DC Pundit) – In what might be the most outrageous case of “oops, we were just about to destroy that,” FBI Director Kash Patel has reportedly uncovered thousands of documents tied to the infamous Trump–Russia collusion hoax, stashed inside burn bags in a previously undisclosed room at FBI headquarters.

According to Fox News Digital, Patel and his team of investigators located a secret Secure Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) where multiple burn bags — the kind used to destroy sensitive or classified materials — were discovered stuffed with documents the FBI clearly didn’t want anyone to see again.

One of those documents? The classified annex to former Special Counsel John Durham’s final report, the very annex containing the actual intelligence Durham relied on to conclude the Russia investigation was politically motivated and lacking merit from the start.

That annex, long kept from public view, is now in the process of being declassified. CIA Director John Ratcliffe, working closely with Patel, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and acting NSA Director William Hartman, is coordinating the release. Once finalized, it will be sent to Senator Chuck Grassley, who is expected to make the contents public.

To quote Fox News directly: “FBI Director Kash Patel found a trove of sensitive documents related to the origins of the Trump–Russia probe buried in multiple ‘burn bags’ in a secret room inside the bureau.” Let that sink in. The agency entrusted with investigating crime apparently needed a secret room to hide the evidence of its own political misdeeds.

The fact that this treasure trove of classified material was found in bags labeled for destruction only raises more questions about the intent behind hiding them in the first place. Remember, the Russia hoax wasn’t just a political dirty trick, it was a taxpayer-funded attempt to kneecap President Trump’s administration and interfere with the will of American voters.

Let’s not forget how much time, media hysteria, and public trust was wasted on a manufactured scandal built on lies and opposition research funded by Hillary Clinton’s campaign. And now, years later, the FBI’s apparent effort to permanently erase what little accountability remained has come to light thanks to actual leadership and real investigators who aren’t afraid to rip the lid off.

This isn’t just about cleaning up the mess, it’s about exposing the rot that infected our most powerful agencies. And if this classified annex contains even half of what Durham hinted at in his public report, it’s no wonder the deep state wanted it burned.

The American people deserve answers. Fortunately, with Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard, and a team that actually believes in transparency and justice, it looks like the truth might finally get its day.

BREAKING: GOP Lawmaker Set On Fire In Shocking Office Attack

(DC Pundit) – In a horrifying incident that’s left a Virginia community stunned, Danville City Councilman Lee Vogler was doused with gasoline and deliberately set on fire inside a local office on Tuesday. The attacker, identified as 29-year-old Shotsie Michael Buck Hayes, is now in police custody.

According to eyewitness accounts and local reports, the attack occurred while Vogler was visiting the offices of Showcase Magazine, a local publication in Danville. Andrew Brooks, the magazine’s owner and publisher, posted a video on Facebook detailing the harrowing event.

“Lee attempted to flee, ran to the front of the building,” Brooks explained. “The individual followed him and set him on fire.”

It sounds like something out of a crime thriller, but this was terrifyingly real. Hayes allegedly barged into the office carrying a five-gallon container of gasoline, then proceeded to throw the gas on Vogler before igniting it. As flames erupted, Vogler managed to escape the building but suffered serious injuries in the process.

He was airlifted to the UNC Burn Center in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, where he is currently being treated. Thankfully, according to Brooks and other reports, Vogler was “awake and talking” during the emergency transport — a small miracle considering the brutality of the assault.

The Daily Mail confirmed that Hayes forced his way into the building and pursued Vogler to the front entrance before setting him ablaze. The motive behind the attack has not yet been publicly disclosed by authorities.

Vogler has served multiple terms on the Danville City Council and has been known for his strong stance on conservative principles, economic growth, and community revitalization. His work in the region has earned him the respect of many voters, and, apparently, the attention of at least one deranged criminal.

While the full details of the investigation are still unfolding, the sheer audacity and violence of this attack have already raised concerns about the safety of public officials, especially those who refuse to cave to the pressures of the radical left or remain silent on controversial issues.

Sadly, attacks on conservatives are no longer rare outliers. From harassment at restaurants to vandalism and now physical violence, the growing hostility toward right-leaning officials in America is becoming more dangerous by the day.

Our thoughts are with Councilman Vogler and his family as he recovers from this barbaric act. Here’s hoping the justice system delivers swift and firm consequences to the man responsible.

FBI Hid Clinton Thumb Drives Containing “Unreviewed” Evidence For 6 Years!

(DC Pundit) – It’s official: the FBI apparently believes that if you just ignore evidence long enough, it’ll magically disappear. That’s the takeaway after Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Congressman Rick Crawford (R-AR), chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, dropped a political bombshell that should make Hillary Clinton sweat and the American people furious.

According to a scorching letter sent to FBI Director Kash Patel, the Bureau has been sitting on thumb drives full of unreviewed evidence tied directly to the Clinton email scandal — not for weeks or months, but for over six years.

Grassley, who’s made a name for himself by refusing to let bureaucrats bury scandals in red tape, posted on X:

“Thumb drives containing unreviewed info on the Clinton email scandal & mishandling of highly classified info [have] been sitting at an FBI offshoot office since 2018. I sent a letter [with] House Intel Chair Crawford asking [Director] Patel [to] review materials & report back ASAP.”

While the media obsessed over Trump’s every breath and the DOJ raided Mar-a-Lago over presidential records he was legally allowed to have, the FBI had thumb drives with Clinton-related evidence locked away in a Northern Virginia office, collecting dust like a forgotten box of donuts in a bureaucrat’s breakroom.

According to a joint press release, “This untapped and unreviewed information has lived within thumb drives in the FBI’s custody inside a Northern Virginia offshoot office of the FBI’s Washington Field Office since 2018.” The letter Grassley and Crawford sent stems from Grassley’s long-standing push to get the so-called “Clinton annex” — an appendix to the DOJ Inspector General’s 2018 report on the Clinton investigation — declassified.

Now, it appears the annex may have more teeth than the FBI ever wanted the public to see.

It’s worth remembering that the original 2018 report from the DOJ’s Office of Inspector General was already scathing, highlighting a number of failures in how the Clinton investigation was handled. But apparently, what we saw was just the tip of the iceberg, and this buried appendix could reveal exactly what Americans weren’t supposed to find out.

The fact that the FBI has held onto this material since 2018 without a single review is, frankly, inexcusable. Either they’re grossly incompetent or deliberately hiding the truth, and neither option is acceptable.

The clock is ticking. If Kash Patel, now serving as FBI Director under President Donald Trump, is serious about restoring integrity to the Bureau, this is the perfect place to start.

The American public deserves answers. No more stalling. No more excuses. And definitely no more cover-ups.

Maine Police Department Caught Employing Illegal Alien As Officer — ICE Makes Arrest!

(DC Pundit) – In what can only be described as a scene straight out of an upside-down version of “Law & Order,” federal immigration agents have arrested a Jamaican national who was working as a police officer for the Old Orchard Beach Police Department in Maine, despite being in the country illegally.

According to Fox News, the individual, Jon Luke Evans, originally entered the U.S. legally in September 2023, but failed to leave after his visa expired on October 1, 2023. Instead of booking a flight home, Evans apparently decided to put on a badge and patrol the streets of Maine.

The situation escalated when Evans tried to purchase a firearm, triggering an alert with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). That red flag was enough to get the attention of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), who promptly took action.

“Jon Luke Evans not only broke U.S. immigration law, but he also illegally attempted to purchase a firearm. Shockingly, Evans was employed as a local law enforcement officer,” said Patricia Hyde, ICE Boston’s Field Office Director. “The fact that a police department would hire an illegal alien and unlawfully issue him a firearm while on duty would be comical if it weren’t so tragic. We have a police department that was knowingly breaking the very law they are charged with enforcing in order to employ an illegal alien.”

No word yet on whether the background checks for the Old Orchard PD consist of more than just asking, “Do you have a uniform?”

This bizarre case is just one more data point in the long and disastrous record of border and immigration policies under the previous administration. Under Biden’s watch, more than 20 million illegal aliens flooded into the United States.

Earlier this month, Trump senior advisor Stephen Miller told Fox News host Jesse Watters that the tide is finally beginning to turn—thanks, in large part, to Trump’s pressure and public outrage.

“At every turn, illegal aliens have always been treated better than Americans. The difference is, in this administration, they are getting a ticket out of America,” Miller said.

So here we are, illegal aliens are being handed government jobs with firearms, while Americans are being handed the bill. And let’s not forget: this is happening in the same country where veterans sleep on sidewalks and citizens are arrested for defending their own homes. If you’re not angry yet, you’re not paying attention.

Insanity In Aisle 5: Stores Are Now Locking Up Reese’s And Twinkies In Newsom’s California! (VIDEO)

(DC Pundit) – Welcome to California, where you can’t afford a home, can’t walk the streets safely, and now you can’t even grab a Hostess snack cake without summoning an employee with a key. Yes, in Gavin Newsom’s liberal utopia, Walgreens and various other retailers are now locking up and security tagging Twinkies, Reese’s, candies, and snacks like they’re fine jewelry.

This isn’t a scene out of Venezuela or Caracas. It’s 2025 California, where criminals roam free, shoplifting is treated like a lifestyle choice, and honest citizens are left waiting in line for an associate to unlock the Little Debbie section.

Videos surfacing from across the state show shelves of candy and snack cakes secured behind plastic barriers or affixed with anti-theft tags. One customer posted, “They’re literally putting security tags on every bag of candy… insanity.” What’s insane is how far the Golden State has fallen under radical, soft-on-crime leadership.

We aren’t talking about high-end electronics or $500 bottles of champagne. This is about snacks. If your economy and law enforcement policies are so broken that a $2 Twinkie is considered high-risk inventory, you’ve got bigger problems than blood sugar levels.

But of course, this is just the latest symptom of a much larger disease: progressive policies that essentially decriminalize theft. In many California cities, stealing less than $950 worth of merchandise is barely a slap on the wrist — and criminals know it. The result? Brazen daylight looting, mom-and-pop stores boarding up, major retailers pulling out, and entire neighborhoods turning into “food deserts.”

And yet, politicians like Newsom continue to act shocked. “We can’t figure out why stores are closing,” they say, while standing next to the wreckage they helped create. Hint: when you make theft profitable and consequences nonexistent, theft skyrockets. Who would’ve thought?

Ironically, some online commentators joked that locking up snack cakes might be the one public health measure California’s gotten right. “Hard to buy, hard to eat,” one quipped. Maybe Newsom has found the secret to ending obesity: criminal-friendly policies that also cut calories.

But the reality is far more serious. This isn’t about candy. It’s about a crumbling society where the rule of law has been replaced by the rule of chaos. Where families are paying more, waiting longer, and getting less, all while criminals laugh on their way out the door.

The people of California don’t need more locks on merchandise. They need leadership that values law, order, and personal responsibility.
