Collapse all
|I a Christian conservative, a mother of a teenage daughter, and a small business owner,
- I believe we need to be tougher on crime. Rudy Giuliani had the broken windows theory and when he became mayor of New York he proved that it worked. He believed that if people were doing low level crimes that they most likely were doing high-level crimes as well. He was right! Crime went down exponentially because of him!
- The children are our future and we need to protect them from indoctrination. In the 1960s there was a push to stop teaching biblical values in the schools. Democrats screamed separation of church and state. Now we have the Democrat party pushing their own religion that for many religious people including myself is completely satanic. Telling children that they can pick their gender. This is a dangerous philosophy. This is why kids are put on hormone blockers and getting butchered by doctors. When you follow the money you will follow the corruption. This is a big business for big Pharma and for hospitals. Once they destroy the child's body that child will be dependent on both medication's and hospital visits. This needs to stop!
- We need to secure our borders and not encourage lawlessness. Even though we are in a $68 billion deficit, Gavin Newsome is encouraging this lawlessness by making us a sanctuary state. Telling illegal aliens that they get free medical on our tax dime. Honestly, I don't know why this isn't considered treason when he's aiding and abetting foreign invasion. I'm an immigrant myself but I am here legally. I have no problem with legal immigration. People need to be properly vetted and they shouldn't be burdening the taxpayers.
All three of the above issues. I'm an advocate for small businesses, parent's rights, & we have to stop allowing the very politicians that are creating the problems with they're crazy executive orders along with their crazy bills to continue to do so. They create the problem. We react. Then they say they're going to be the solution by taxing us higher. This is their blueprint.
President Donald J Trump is a wonderful example of a leader! This guy left a life of luxury and lost almost half of his wealth becoming president. He has to deal with an onslaught of lies and lawfare yet he still keeps his head held high, I've had a deal with some of this on a microlevel so I really admire him dealing with it on a macro level. Our borders were secured up to 90% under Trump. He lowered taxes and regulations. We were energy independent under Trump and we were the biggest transporter of energy under Trump. He signed the trillion trees campaign which helps clean the air from pollution.
I fear if Trump is not elected in 2024 that we're not gonna have a country anymore.
Obama's America, Hillary's America, & Death of a Nation.
I really believe that people that believe in God believe in accountability. Those that don't believe in God have a philosophy of, "do as thy wilt." This is why we are constitutional republic. IN GOD WE TRUST!
I started a rally and had almost 6000 participants in 2020. I'm an honest person that won't lie to people just to get their vote. I really love people and I think my love will shine through with my legislation.
Repealing bad bills and authoring good ones. Encouraging people to read the bills themselves so they can really govern themselves rather than listening to the big pharma funded corporate government run media that lies constantly to us. When Obama passed the Smith Mundt Modernization Act he legalized propaganda. Anderson Cooper, was an intern for the CIA. Josh Campbell, also works for CNN while he was the assistant of the former disgraced FBI Director, James Comey. This is called Joint State Actors and it used to be completely illegal. Our media is not supposed to be government run. Our media is supposed to put the government in check. We are not supposed to be run by the government. We are supposed to run the government. WE THE PEOPLE! BY THE PEOPLE! FOR THE PEOPLE!
I would like California to be the Golden State once more. It's sad to see it looking like Gotham City. We have to go back to being a moral society and hopefully as a representative I can encourage that behavior. Let's go back to love thy neighbor as thy self.
The birth of my daughter. It was the happiest day of my life. It was also very scary that I was responsible for someone else. I was 37 years old.. I remember looking at her face thinking that she was the most beautiful baby I ever saw. I was so thankful to God to give me this wonderful gift of motherhood. She is the most important person in my life.
Dance Teacher at age 15. I'm still teaching dance to this day and I'm 50 years old.
The American Story The Beginnings. I love how America became America and this was written by a father and son that owns Wall Builders Museum in Texas. David Barton & Tim Barton
There's no fictional character I want to be. I like being myself. Lol.
Sweet Caroline. One of my sweet elderly clients loves to dance to this song. Every time I hear this song outside of hanging out with her I get a warm feeling. I just love her so much!
I really am grateful for my life and everything that God has given me. I don't really have personal struggles right now. Most things that I've had in the past have been ironed out.
Listening & doing what's best for the citizens.
Reversing terrible legislation that has made a huge exodus out of our state. The last three years we've averaged about 500,000 people leaving this state. We are the highest taxed state in the country for the lowest quality of life.
No. We see the people that are supposed to be experts doing a horrible job so it's time for regular people with common sense to step up and fill these government positions. I think a lot of it has to do with corruption. Like the words of George Carlin, "They are in a big club and you ain't in it!"
Absolutely. I think most people want to do what's right for the citizens. I'd like to think that at least. I think many people get misinformation from the mainstream media. They are told what to think rather than think for themselves. At least the ones that are not bought and paid for. I can't be bought. I work for one which is God.
Senator Rubio. I know he was one of the co-authors of Senate Bill 14 which makes it a serious felony to traffic a child. I was shocked when my opponent, Rick Chavez Zbur voted no for this bill the first time it came to his committee.
Probably not. I'm interested in authoring good common sense bills.
Many parents come to me and tell me about the indoctrination going in the schools. They send me pictures of what their child took in the classroom and it is absolutely frightening. I also know that this is happening because my child tells me so. This makes me really want to fix this problem because I don't want a bunch of broken young people. This is how you can destroy the future of a country. I want Children to know that they were not a mistake. God made them in the image that he wanted them to be.
I don't really have a favorite joke. Life is funny enough without telling jokes.
Yes. That is how it's supposed to be done according to the constitution. This is why it's very important to get people in that are going to do the bidding of the people. Not their owners.
The Child Protection Act
LA & CA GOP, LA CRA, Craig Huey, Latinos United For America, Patriot's For Freedom, Make California Great Again.
Public Safety, Parent's Rights, & Immigration.
We need more transparency and government accountability! How come we keep throwing money at things and the problem gets worse? Where is the accountability to these non-elected bureaucrats? It's like they're trying to make the problem worse so they can keep asking for the money. What really upsets me is some of these non-elected bureaucrats are making more money than the president doing a terrible job.
