CA Democrats Defend Gov. Newsom for Changing Date of his Own Recall
‘Gavin Newsom is cheating in the Recall, with this Legislature as his willing accomplice’
By Katy Grimes, July 1, 2021 8:15 am
California Assemblyman Kevin Kiley (R-Granite Bay) was condemning the dubious bill changing the date of the Recall Election against Gov. Gavin Newsom on Monday, when a Democrat colleague stood up and challenged Kiley’s critique of the governor.
Press play to hear a narrated version of this story, presented by AudioHopper.
“As I blasted Newsom on the Assembly Floor, one legislator actually stood up and protested that I shouldn’t be allowed to criticize the Governor,” Kiley said in a blog post on his website.
“It’s becoming overly political,” said Assemblyman Adrin Nazarian (D -Van Nuys), referring to Kiley’s critique. “It’s all about saying as many things as negative as possible about the governor right now.”
“I don’t want the [Assembly] floor to be misused that way,” Nazarian said.
“This was too much for even the presiding Speaker, who dismissed him,” Kiley said.
What did Kiley say that triggered Nazarian?
“We should be voting in the recall right now,” Kiley said. He discussed Democrats’ 2018 legislation that altered California’s recall election law, extending out the process by a few months to make it longer, rather than the previous recall process which was speedy.
“Everyone knew at the time that it was a sham,” Kiley said. He explained that the legislation was created to save Sen. Josh Newman (D-Fullerton), who was in the middle of a recall at that time. But Newman, to his credit, abstained from voting on the bill, acknowledging it would have been a conflict of interest.
“That was way too much to ask of Governor Newsom,” Kiley said. “This trailer bill was negotiated by his administration… apparently his own campaign had a hand in it, as they’ve refused multiple requests for comment by the Associated Press. And the bill will only take effect when the governor signs it. So we have the unprecedented circumstance where Governor Newsom, with the stroke of a pen, will be changing California law in order to try to beat back his own recall.”
This is where Assemblyman Nazarian objects to Kiley’s references to Gov. Newsom, calling it “overly political.”
But as Kiley said, in the dead of night, Gov. Gavin Newsom signed SB 152, “changing the timing of his own Recall in an attempt to suppress votes against him. It’s possibly the most corrupt act in California history.”
As Kiley said, “the Legislature itself violated international human rights standards by changing rules in the middle of an election.”
“Every child knows the word for changing the rules in the middle of the game,” Kiley added. “It’s cheating. And every California voter should know: Gavin Newsom is cheating in the Recall, with this Legislature as his willing accomplice.”

This is just more ammunition for a viable candidate.
Now all we need is a viable candidate!
Why not put a D next to everyone’s name on the ballot????
Maybe that will level the playing field a little!
@Tomorrow,
Now that is a winning idea!
Aww, I see it now, what would a low information voter do?
Go alphabetically perhaps?????
That means we’d be stuck with “Angelyne” – the one who’s “famous” for being “famous” in LA LA land….
#Facepalm
She couldn’t be any worse than what we have now. Equally bad maybe but not worse.
Ouch Comrades

ROUNDS COOKING OFF: On the Nazi-Fascist Democrat party’s “ENEMIES LIST”
The Democrats have this “enemies list” — denominated in epithets and insults aimed at the people whose wallets they wish to hijack and take up residence inside. You can be a “Racist!” and you can be a “Terrorist!” and you can be a “Dictator” and you can be a “Hostage-taker!” and you can “Wear a tinfoil hat!” and you can be a “Homophobe!” and you can be a “Teabagger!” — a homosexual man taking his partner’s scrotum into his mouth. You can be “Selfish!” and you can be a “Wacko!” and you can be a “Hick!” and you can be a “Rube!” and you can be “Uneducated” and you can be an “Extremist!”
You can be a “Right-wing-nut!” and you can be “Mentally Ill” and you can be “Deranged!” and you can be a “Flake!” and you can be “Sexist!” and you can be a “Warmonger!” and you can be “Unenlightened!” and you can be a “FatCat!” and you can be a “Greedy!” member of the productive class, and you can be a “Nazi!” and you can be a “Fascist!” — although no one more closely approaches the precise description of “Nazi!” or “Fascist!” than the usual Democrat propagandist — either official, or self-appointed.
Lies, after all, are the heart and soul and the sword and shield of the Nazi-Fascist Democrat party — and of all other left-wing trash. Their next-best debate tactic is censorship — to shut-up their critics — whom they are too intellectually incompetent to best in debate.
So all you have to do to occupy multiple epithets on the Democrats’ enemies list is to insist that they take their hands off yourself, off your wallet, off your property, off your kids, off your diet, off your healthcare, off your household appliances, off your car, off your bank account, off your weapons of self-defense, off your liberty, and off your freedom of speech.
Insist on all these good things — and that qualifies you to be spat upon by nasty, mean-spirited scum — by The Friends of All Mankind — by a mob of lying, thieving, dope-smoking, pill-popping, coke-snorting, sticky-fingered, bloodsucking, tax-eating, gun-stealing, predatory humanitarian hoodlums, thugs and gangsters, by their pickpockets and pecksniffs, by their spies, spooks, sneaks and snoops, by their bumsniffers and peckercheckers who seek to silence their critics — by their defenders in the fascist, Democrat-captured media — Sniffy, Snippy, Snotty, and Snooty, by their Mikhail Suslovs, their Josef Goebbels, and their Leni Riefenstahls, by their principal attorneys, Manny, Moe and Jack, Rooty, Tooty, Fresh and Frooty, Brutish, Nasty and Short, Snap, Crackle, and Pop — by the freakshow — by the bloody zoo — by the Star-Wars-bar-scene Democrat party, in other words.
What a bloody gaggle of gargoyles! They suffer from self-inflicted bullshit wounds to the head. We are ruled by their armed force and by fraud. No political party in the history of America more profoundly deserves absolute and outright destruction. If they attack you, destroy them.
==========================
Start a prairie fire!
Start a tea party tsunami!
Start a taxpayer rebellion against the tax-eaters!
Share these sentiments with your family, friends, and neighbors, today! $
This looks like an email chain letter. I didn’t need to know what a “teabagger” was either. Hopefully, your comment gets removed.
Good! A pissed off libtard. Love it.
One of the best, most precise comments I’ve ever read.
Beautiful and poetic. My I use this in my commentaries? It is sure to piss off numerous libtards much to my glee.
A hand of applause and appreciation for warrior Kevin Kiley with his relentless, unselfish and charging full steam ahead efforts in this fight to ostercize and be rid of the cancerous corruption of Newsom and his fellow croonie officials in OUR California…….We Thank You Assemblyman Kiley !!
Did Kevin Kiley just hint that he will be on the ballot for Governor September 14?
He’s the only potential serious candidate (possibly Grenell) and I’m hoping that Moorlach will return from the sidelines, or perhaps it’s finally McClintock’s turn – he should have won in ’03 – if he HAD, I’m sure CA would be in better shape today than it is now…
God, I hope so!
Lord hear our prayer.
Looks like it, Stacy. Also Larry Elder is mulling a run.
I will be adding Kevin Kiley’s name to my ballot if its not on there. “Get rid of government shit, vote Kiley”
