Governor Brown’s aberrant style of leadership has been as
maniacal as a third-World dictator, and his legacy is a complete and total
failure, tainted by frequent lunatic ravings.
Gov. Jerry Brown, on a trip to
Mexico, seeks to position California as a more welcoming place for
immigrants... $35 BILLION PER YEAR IN WELFARE NOT WELCOMING ENOUGH?!?
We’ve got an even more ominous enemy within our borders that promotes
“Reconquista of Aztlan” or the reconquest of California, Arizona, New Mexico
and Texas into the country of Mexico.

Jerry Brown’s California: Socialist,
Climate-Conscious Open Borders Utopia
Food or Fish, Liberty or Oppression,
Victim or Fighter? We Californians have many decisions to make about our
future, thanks to our maniacal third-World wanna-be dictator-Governor
Jerry Brown – a childless Marxist, who
cares only about himself. Brown has never lived a life that calls upon one to
sacrifice for the benefit of one’s own family and children. And it shows.
The
narcissistic manic Gov. Jerry Brown, California’s four-term Democratic Governor
is mostly responsible for the decline of the state. The once-golden state is
now a socialist, climate-conscious utopia with open borders. This has occurred,
cheered-on and virtually uncriticized by California’s mainstream media – almost
as if the media is state-run.
Brown, who wants to outlaw private
ownership of automobiles, supports universal single-payer health care, and
issues in-state “visas” for illegal aliens, hates the Californians who have “little
green lawns,” are climate
deniers, and “freeloaders.”
California is a cesspool and Jerry Brown offers absolution
to criminals through hundreds of pardons and commutations.
Narcissists
have several telltale diversion tactics they use to escape responsibility:
Intimidate/Blame. Accuse/Project. Argue/Exhaust. Deny/Rewrite.
Divert/Attack. Fear/Avoid.
We’ve witnessed California’s
ludicrous Governor Jerry Brown use all of these tactics to divert
responsibility for the demise of the once great Golden State.
Yet California is a glaring example of radical leftist policies to avoid,
and in far too many places resembles a third-world banana republic. In 2017, Brown said the world needs ‘brain washing’ on
climate change. Sounding indeed brainwashed, Brown said,
“The problem … is us. It’s our whole way of life. It’s our comfort … It’s the
greed. It’s the indulgence. It’s the pattern. And it’s the inertia.”
California has one of the worst
failing education systems in the country, the highest income taxes, highest gas
tax, highest poverty in the nation, a billion dollar budget deficit, the state
pension system is underfunded by $1 trillion, and violent crime is on the rise.
But we now have transgender bathrooms, and a new law that says knowingly
transmitting HIV to a partner will no longer be a felony
offense.
According to
Republican State Senator John Moorlach, a CPA, many of California’s 482 cities
are in financial distress, facing a tipping point to insolvency mainly due to unfunded
pension liabilities. Moorlach says:
- California has the nation’s
highest income taxes. California also has the highest corporate tax in the
Western United States. According to the Tax Foundation’s 2016 Facts and Figures,
California is ranked 48th overall.
- The governor raised the
minimum wage earlier this year to $15 per hour. His own estimates show
that it will cost the budget $4 billion per year in additional personnel costs.
- For the 12th year in a row,
California was named the worst state for business in a survey of 500 CEOs
by Chief Executive Magazine.
Those are the facts. Yet a recent op-ed by
Bonnie Castillo, the Executive Director of the radicalized California
Nurses Union, summed up what she says is wrong with California. Only
she claims “these glaring needs are a testament to the worst inequality in the
United States since the Great Depression,” ignoring that it is the Democrat
Party’s own socialistic policies which gave us:
- a major affordable housing
and homelessness crisis;
- a lack of jobs that pay a
living wage;
- a health care system that
leaves behind millions of Californians because they have no health
coverage or because they have exorbitant out-of-pocket costs for health
insurance;
- escalating public college
and university tuition that limits educational opportunity or leaves
students weighted down with debt for decades.
Her solution? More and higher taxes.
“Legislators should continue to require the wealthiest among us to contribute
to the societal common good,” Castillo said. She also took a shot at
Proposition 13, which cut property taxes down to 1 percent and limited the
growth rate of future assessments to 2 percent. Even with Proposition 13,
California is ranked 17th out of all 50 states in property taxes, according to
WalletHub.com.
High Taxes = Outbound Migration By Millionaires
Ms. Castillo’s and Jerry Brown’s
socialistic attacks on the wealthy have so dramatically impacted California,
that according to new
research from Stanford University and members of the
California Franchise Tax Board, California lost an estimated 138 high
income individuals due to the passage of the Proposition
30 – a tax hike pushed by Gov. Jerry Brown and approved by
voters in 2012, ZeroHedge.com reported.
Prop. 30 retroactively raised taxes on the state’s highest earners to 13.3%,
leaving California top-earners with the highest state income tax rate in
the country. It also hiked the tax rate on income between $300,000 and $500,000
by 2%, while raising the tax rate on income over $500,000 by 3%.
“How viable
are millionaire taxes when lower-tax states are a short distance away?” the
study asks. “Can states sustain these new millionaire taxes without suffering
out- migration of top tax payers? How attached are millionaires to the places
where they currently earn their income?”
Water Lies
Droughts are
nature’s fault; they are naturally occurring. Water shortages are the fault of
government officials, and California’s water shortages fall squarely on Jerry
Brown. The state of California hasn’t significantly invested in water
storage since the 1970s when Jerry Brown was governor the first time around.
“This is an era of limits and we all had better get used to it,” Brown said
upon being elected governor in 1975, embracing the “small is beautiful” way of
thinking. Since then, California’s population has doubled, as have
environmental demands. And, more than fifty-percent of the state’s water
resources are allowed to flow out the San Francisco Bay to the Pacific Ocean.
Rather than build the desperately
needed infrastructure projects to collect and store water during the wet years,
Gov. Jerry Brown recently signed into law a new water conservation act that
will limit each citizen to just 50 gallons per person per day by
2050. According to the San Jose Mercury
News, Governor Brown “signed two bills, SB 606 by Sen. Robert Hertzberg (D-Van Nuys) and AB 1668 by Assemblywoman Laura Friedman
(D-Glendale), that require cities, water districts, and large agricultural
water districts to set strict annual water budgets, potentially facing fines of
$1,000 per day if they don’t meet them, and $10,000 a day during drought
emergencies, Daily Wire reported.
The truth is
that 50 percent of California’s water goes toward environmental purposes. Of
the rest of the water, only about 10 percent goes to “urban” uses for homes and
businesses, and 40 percent is used by agriculture. A full 50 percent of the
water is used for environmental purposes.
Democrat lawmakers and federal environmental regulators have
authorized more than 81 billion gallons of water to flow out to the ocean,
instead of being used for human consumption. This is environmental extremism at
its worst, and it is killing California agriculture.
More than 80,000 acres of farmland could be back into production,
if only farmers and ranchers had the 81 billion gallons of water running off
into the ocean.
In 2015, when California’s 5-year drought was still in full force,
Gov. Brown’s hand-picked appointees at the State Water Resources Control Board ordered the release of massive
amounts of water from the New Melones Reservoir and Lake Tulloch, to save a
dozen fish. This occurred at the same time Brown was threatening to fine
residents who water “their little green lawns,” and for lingering in the shower
too long.
So while the
governor and his environmentalist water gatekeepers were going to empty
reservoirs to save a few fish, farmers have been deprived of water.
“Friday, the board’s regulators released their plan to disrupt a century of California
water law and demand twice as much water flow down the Tuolumne, Stanislaus and
Merced rivers in a purported effort to save salmon,” Mike Dunbar wrote in
the Modesto Bee over the weekend. “This is a water grab, pure and simple. And
we must fight it, not just talk about it.”
“This
declaration of economic war is not just about water. It’s a war over our homes,
our jobs and our children.”
California
is home to one-third of the nation’s welfare recipients. California is home to
the most residents living below the poverty line in the country. And now with
our politicians’ disregard for federal immigration laws, more than a quarter of
the 38 million Californians were not even born in the United States.
California’s Oligarchs
“Why would a labor union, for
example, support open borders?” Ed Ring wrote in
a recent op ed. “Don’t they understand that if you continue to import
low-skilled workers, wages will remain low? But maybe these labor organizations
don’t want things to improve for California’s low income communities. Maybe the
worse things get, the more members they’ll recruit, the more resentment they’ll
exploit, the more agitators will join their army. Maybe this is just about
power.”
Governor
Brown’s aberrant style of leadership has been as maniacal as a third-World
dictator, and his legacy is a complete and total failure, tainted by frequent
lunatic ravings.
Brown says humankind would face dire
straits if his climate change policies are not fulfilled. “Maybe not in my
life, I’ll be dead…Most of you people, when I look out here, a lot of you
people are going to be alive,” Brown said at a legislative hearing one year ago
extending his cap and trade legislation for another decade, despite no evidence
of air quality improvements. “And you’re going to be alive in a horrible
situation. You’re going to see mass migrations, vector diseases, forest fires,
Southern California burning up. That’s real guys. That’s what the scientists of
the world are saying.”
“I’m not here for some cockamamie
legacy that people talk about,” Brown added.
“This isn’t for me. I’m going to be dead. It’s for you. It’s for you and it’s
damn real.”

A study by Tom Wong of the University of California at San Diego

Eliseo Medina: Revolution Through Illegal Immigration
https://www.theepochtimes.com/eliseo-medina-revolution-through-illegal-immigration_2748588.html?ref=brief_Archives&utm_source=Epoch+Times+Newsletters&utm_campaign=6432f3abd5-
“Before immigration debates took place in Washington, I spoke with Eliseo Medina and SEIU members,” said then-Sen. Barack Obama, addressing the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) at a stop for his 2008 presidential campaign.
Eliseo Medina, Obama’s informal immigration adviser, has dedicated his life to obtaining citizenship and voting rights for America’s illegal aliens—now at an estimated 22 million—with the expressed goal of transforming the United States into a one-party state.
As a Communist Party USA (CPUSA) supporter and former honorary chair of the largest Marxist organization in the United States, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), Medina is undeniably the leader of today’s amnesty movement.
At the far-left “America’s Future Now!” conference in Washington on June 2, 2009, Medina, then SEIU’s international executive vice president, addressed attendees on the vital importance of “comprehensive immigration reform”—a code phrase for amnesty.
Medina failed to mention the plight of illegal aliens, focusing instead on how—if given amnesty—they would eventually vote for Democrats.
Speaking of Latino voting patterns in the 2008 election, Medina said:
“When they [Latinos] voted in November, they voted overwhelmingly for progressive candidates. Barack Obama got two out of every three voters that showed up.
“So, I think there’s two things that matter for the progressive community:
“Number one: If we are to expand this electorate to win, the progressive community needs to solidly be on the side of immigrants. That will solidify and expand the progressive coalition for the future.
“Number two: [If] we reform the immigration laws, it puts 12 million people on the path to citizenship and eventually voters. Can you imagine if we have—even the same ratio—two out of three?
“If we have 8 million new voters … we will create a governing coalition for the long term, not just for an election cycle.”
Medina’s “governing coalition” refers to Democrats having control of the federal government for the foreseeable future, “not just for an election cycle.”
Who Is Eliseo Medina?
Medina‘s road to power began in 1965 when, as a 19-year-old grape-picker, he participated in the United Farm Workers’ strike in Delano, California. Over the next 13 years, Medina worked alongside labor leader and beloved socialist Cesar Chavez, eventually surpassing his mentor as a skilled union organizer and political strategist. Medina met his future wife Liza Hirsch during this period.
Medina had met Chicago DSA comrades in the 1970s when he was in the Windy City organizing a grape boycott for Chavez. From 2004 until 2016, Medina served as an honorary chairman for the organization.
Like many DSA members, Medina also worked closely with the CPUSA.
Medina gave the keynote speech at the CPUSA publication’s People’s Weekly World (PWW) banquet in Berkeley, California, on Nov. 18, 2001.
The PWW quoted Medina praising the communist publication: “’Wherever workers are in struggle,’ Medina said, ‘they find the PWW regularly reporting issues and viewpoints that are seldom covered by the regular media. For us, the PWW has been and always will be the people’s voice.’”
In 2007, Medina personally endorsed the People’s World (by then renamed from People’s Weekly World).
Medina’s Wife and Flexible Socialist Ethics
Medina’s wife, Liza, is the daughter of Fred Hirsch, a self-described “communist plumber” and his even-more-radical wife, Virginia, known as Ginny. In the early 1960s, Ginny Hirsch left her husband and young children in San Jose while she drove to Guatemala with nearly a ton of smuggled ammunition destined for leftist rebels.
From the age of 12, Liza Hirsch was partially raised by Cesar Chavez and, at his personal request, committed herself at an early age to earning a law degree so she could serve as an attorney for the movement.
Though a sometimes-socialist himself, Chavez had no time for illegal aliens (who he dubbed “wet-backs”) fearing they would “scab” against his strikes and take jobs from his members. Chavez even launched an “Illegals Campaign”—an organized program to identify illegal alien workers in the fields and turn them in to the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS).
Hirsch was put in charge of this program. In 1974, just before she went to law school, she “distributed forms printed in triplicate to all union offices and directed staff members to document the presence of illegal immigrants in the fields and report them to the INS,” according to the book “The Crusades of Cesar Chavez” by Miriam Pawel.
Hirsch would later marry New York DSA member Paul Du Brul. After his untimely death, she married Medina, also a card-carrying DSA member by then.
Socialist ethics can be very flexible.
Changing the Democrat Position to Pro-Amnesty
Medina joined the SEIU in 1986, where he helped revive a local union in San Diego, building its membership from 1,700 to more than 10,000 in five years. Medina became international executive vice president of the 2.2 million-member SEIU in 1996.
The SEIU has a huge number of illegal alien workers in its ranks. Medina used that leverage to promote amnesty in the union movement, as well as in the organized left and in the Democratic Party.
In the mid-1990s, most unions were still hostile to illegal alien workers who worked at a much lower rate, taking jobs away from union members. But in 1994, several far-left union leaders led by DSA member John Sweeney took over the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO), setting the stage for a major policy change for the unions—and ultimately for the Democrats.
Claiming U.S. immigration policy was “broken and [needed] to be fixed,” the AFL-CIO on Feb. 16, 2000, called for a new amnesty for millions of undocumented workers and the repeal of the 1986 legislation that criminalized hiring them.
According to the DSA website in 2004, Medina was “widely credited with playing a key role in the AFL-CIO’s decision to adopt a new policy on immigration a few years ago.”
From his union position, Medina reached across the labor movement into the social movements and the Catholic Church to create the widest possible pro-amnesty coalition.
“Working to ensure the opportunity to pass comprehensive immigration reform does not slip away, Medina led the effort to unite the unions of the Change to Win federation and AFL-CIO around a comprehensive framework for reform. Serving as a leading voice in Washington, frequently testifying before Congress, Medina has also helped to build a strong, diverse coalition of community and national partners that have intensified the call for reform and cultivated necessary political capital to hold elected leaders accountable.
“Medina has also helped strengthen ties between the Roman Catholic Church and the labor movement to work on common concerns such as immigrant worker rights and access to health care.”
In August 2008, the Obama campaign announced the formation of its National Latino Advisory Council. The new body consisted of several Democratic Congress members, a Catholic bishop, a former ambassador, two former cabinet members, and Medina.
After the election, Medina became Obama’s informal adviser on issues concerning immigration and amnesty. The fact that a DSA member and CPUSA supporter was advising the U.S. president on issues of vital national security importance appeared to concern no one.
Eventually, Medina and his movement were able to get an amnesty bill passed through the U.S. Senate. If they could only pass a bill through the House, the United States would be set on an irreversible path to socialism.
Fortunately, Tea Party-aligned Republican Congress members refused to sell out their nation. They held the line against intense pressure, and no amnesty bill was passed through the House in Obama’s eight years in the White House.
‘Fast for Families’
In November 2013, Medina, along with Cristian Avila of amnesty advocacy group Mi Familia Vota and Dae Jung Yoon of the National Korean American Service and Education Consortium (a hard-left group that supports communist North Korea), started a 22-day “fast for families” in front of Capitol Hill “to demand Congress approve comprehensive immigration reform,” according to People’s World.
The staged protest gained worldwide media attention. Several Democratic members of Congress dropped by to offer support, along with then-President Obama, first lady Michelle Obama, and Vice President Joe Biden.
Still, House Republicans did not budge.
On May 17, 2016, Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign announced that long-time DSA activist Dolores Huerta and Medina would join the team as senior advisers in California.
“Huerta and Medina will build on the campaign’s robust outreach to the Latino community in California and work with the campaign’s senior team to organize and engage Californians in conversations about Hillary Clinton’s plans to break down barriers and help move the country forward.
“’We are thrilled to be joined by two incredibly accomplished and admired leaders in the Latino, immigrant and labor communities, Dolores Huerta and Eliseo Medina,’ said Buffy Wicks, State Director for Hillary for California. ‘Their advocacy and leadership … will go a long way in continuing the important work of reaching every California voter in advance of the June 7 primary.’”
Clinton promised to introduce a “pathway to full and equal citizenship” to legalize and grant voting rights to every illegal alien in the country “within 100 days of taking office” if she were to be elected president.
Had President Donald Trump not won his shocking victory on Nov. 6, 2016, Medina’s dream of a permanent, unbeatable progressive “governing coalition” would today be a reality, making it virtually impossible to elect another Republican president.
