It's Official!
California Dem Party REFUSES To Endorse Her For Re-Election After What She Did!
California Democrats have once again proven that they are about 8 shades of insane.
When left to choose between CRAZY and CRAZIER it seems California chooses CRAZIER every
single time!
This time is no different as the state of California Democratic Party has refused to
endorse incumbent and current Senator Dianne Feinstein and her bid for re-election this
year.
Instead, the party's annual convention has chosen to give the majority of their votes
to her top primary challenger – the progressive State Sen. Kevin de Leon.
Feinstein at 84-years-old is considered the oldest member of the Senate and is currently
seeking her sixth term.
Currently, De Leon has 54% of the vote, as compared to just 37% for the more moderate
Feinstein.
Luckily, neither candidate will receive the state party endorsement due to the failure
of both candidates to reach the 60% threshold.
However, according to recent RealClearPolitics polls averages, Feinstein leads de Leon by
29% points in the primary race.De Leon stated while speaking to Politico – "The outcome
of today's endorsement vote is an astounding rejection of politics as usual, and it boosts
our campaign's momentum as we all stand shoulder-to-shoulder against a complacent
status quo.
California Democrats are hungry for new leadership that will fight for California values from
the front lines, not equivocate on the sidelines."
Many Conservatives and Republicans will remember De Leon from when he was mocked relentlessly
a few years ago after making a significant number of inaccurate statements while promoting
a bill that would require individuals who manufacturer homemade firearms to undergo
background checks.
De Leon's ridiculously uninformed and uneducated expose on the so-called "ghost gun" was
caught on video for all to see.De Leon begins, holding an unloaded rifle in his hands and
then claims – "This is a ghost gun.
This right here has the ability with a .30-caliber clip to disperse with 30 bullets within half
a second.
Thirty magazine clip in half a second."
Except even the left-leaning Associated Press states – "…the rifle on display in the
video is indeed a homemade fully automatic rifle.
Still, a rate of fire of 60 rounds per second — or 3,600 rounds per minute — is unlikely
with a "homemade" rifle.
Fully automatic weapons are also essentially banned already, even if they are homemade.
The average rate of fire for a semi-automatic rifle is roughly 120 rounds per minute, depending
on the shooter and reload time."
De Leon may also be remembered for proclaiming on the California Senate floor that "half
his family" was in the country illegally, using false documents, and eligible for deportation
under President Trump's new executive order against "sanctuary" jurisdiction while
introducing a bill known as SB54, which was the bill to make California a "Sanctuary
State."
He said – "… I can tell you half of my family would be eligible for deportation
under [President Donald Trump's] executive order, because if they got a false Social
Security card, if they got a false identification, if they got a false driver's license prior
to us passing AB60, if they got a false green card, and anyone who has family members, you
know, who are undocumented knows that almost entirely everybody has secured some sort of
false identification.
That's what you need to survive, to work.
They are eligible for massive deportation."In the meantime, the more moderate Feinstein
has been taking heat for actually being rational.
She took heat last fall after she was heard by many of her leftist counterparts actually
voicing optimism about President Donald Trump becoming what she termed "a good president".
Feinstein also voiced criticism of former President Barack Obama's Deferred Action
for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, stating it was on shaky legal ground.
In California that is tantamount to blasphemy to voice any opposition to illegal immigration
or DACA on any level.
For those that do not know, President Trump has ended DACA and the current debate rages
on as to exactly what to do with them.
DACA provided a level of amnesty to certain illegal immigrants — many of whom came to
the United States as children.
Many believe that Feinstein will be incredibly difficult to beat however due to her establishment
support, as well as her standing among independents and women.
Both of which are considered two key voting blocs in the state.
A San Fransisco-based pollster, Ben Tulchin admitted – "It will be tough to outflank
her in that capacity."
Many other Californians took to social media to voice their displeasure at the decision
to support De Leon over Feinstein.
Feinstein is not without her faults as she is currently calling for what she termed a
"full out assault weapons ban" in the wake of the recent Parkland school shooting.
She states in response –
Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) last week issued the following statement calling for
a hearing on her bill to ban assault weapons:
"Over this past week, we've heard passionate pleas from students who survived a massacre
and lost their friends and teachers.
There have been 239 shootings at schools since 20 first graders were slaughtered at Sandy
Hook—the last time we said 'never again.'
These shootings resulted in 438 people being wounded, 138 fatally.
There's no other country where school shootings are a monthly occurrence, no other country
where children are afraid they are going to be killed at school, and we've got to stop
it.
"Through their pain, these students have been demanding lawmakers take action to make
sure an AR-15 isn't used to perpetrate another mass shooting.
At a rally this week, one of the Parkland students said, 'We can't protect our guns
before we protect our children.'
We owe it to these students to listen.
"Our country is in the midst of a significant conversation on gun reform, and our bill to
ban assault weapons, which is before the Judiciary Committee, deserves a hearing.
"From Aurora to Sandy Hook, San Bernardino to Las Vegas, Sutherland Springs to Parkland,
one common thread that runs through mass shootings is the use of AR-15 military-style assault
weapons.
These weapons are designed to kill the greatest number of people in the shortest amount of
time and we need to get these weapons of war off our streets.
"Republicans falsely claim that the federal ban in 1994 didn't work.
When the assault weapons ban was in place, the number of gun massacres fell by 37 percent
and the number of people dying from gun massacres fell by 43 percent.
After the ban expired, the number of gun massacres increased by 183 percent and the number of
people dying from gun massacres increased by 239 percent.
"The ban was effective, but Republicans still blocked its extension at the behest
of the NRA.
Today, however, the tide is turning and the public overwhelmingly favors stronger gun
laws.
We deserve a hearing."
