2025/12/11

In 21 days, the California Agricultural Land Equity Task Force will release a report of recommendations for the Governor on how to increase “land equity” across our state. But, while the task force claims it is working to help right historical injustices and support socially disadvantaged farmers, their recommendations are nothing short of racial discrimination and further regulatory burden. We are peeling back all the layers today and exposing the very dangerous and radical agenda being proposed to

The California Conversation ·

2025/12/04

One month ago, New York City was completely shaken up by the election of Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani to the Mayor’s Office. This sparks a major shift in one of the country’s most prominent cities, and leaves people with a lot of questions about how the financial capital of the world will continue to run under a socialist. But, New York City might not be the only major city succumbing to this shift – a new candidate for Los Angeles Mayor might just bring that trend here to California as well

2025/11/20

For years, California has pushed faith-based families out of the foster care system. But a major legal shift and a new executive order may open the door for change. Here’s why there’s new hope for foster care in California - and why your voice matters now more than ever!Check out more content related to California politics, here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLI6CiPPZnCntOxJ2m6iAHX3sj1_Ll0RuF&si=lZza27AOR5mq4nPwFor sources cited in compiling today’s episode, check out my corresponding

Proposition 50 – the topic of last week’s special election – passed with overwhelming support from California voters. What exactly does this mean for our state and the conservatives living in it? Plus, how do we move forward from such a devastating loss? Is California truly still worth fighting for?

2025/11/06

The federal government is still shutdown, and this past weekend the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, was in danger of suspension. But while we hear the argument over and over that millions of Americans will starve without this program, we have to ask – is that really true, or is there more going on that we need to be aware of? Plus, what is the role of government when it comes to social welfare programs, and are Christians required to support the SNAP program out of

2025/10/30

Prop 50 is one of the most dangerous threats to fair representation we’ve seen in years, and it’s flying completely under the radar. It isn’t some minor policy tweak; it’s a backdoor that will reshape how our votes count in California if passed. Whether you’re conservative, liberal, or somewhere in between – this issue is not partisan and you need to know what’s really going on before you vote.Voter Resources:Same-day Voter Registration Information:

The California Conversation ·

2025/10/23

Over the last few weeks, multiple polls have shown something no one expected — rising voter sentiment for conservatives over Democrats, and even a Republican candidate taking first place in California’s race for Governor. Could this be the start of a red wave in 2026? And is it actually possible that, for the first time since 2011, California could elect a Republican Governor? I’m breaking down what these numbers really mean – and whether they point to a political shift in the Golden State.Check out

Ep. 56 | Silencing Californians? The Truth About SB 771

The California Conversation ·

2025/10/02

Free speech has been at the forefront of the political conversation over the past few weeks. Our Governor has been an active participant in the discussion, calling the Trump Administration one of censorship and tyranny. But what is even more important than what Gavin Newsom SAYS about topics like these, is what he DOES about them – so today, we need to look at a new bill that has been presented to our Governor, a bill that speaks directly to freedom of speech and that reveals the true position that

Ep. 55 | The Hidden Costs of "Housing Reform"

The California Conversation ·

2025/09/25

As of the end of June, California housing prices are twice as expensive as the typical home in the United States. Purchasing a two-bedroom home in our state is nearly twice as expensive as just renting, with the latest studies estimating the median household income needed to buy a mid-tier home is 238,000 dollars. But, as I point out so often, this problem is not inevitable. Today, I want to look at a few recent housing policies that aren’t solving the problem – and in some cases, are making it

2025/09/18

There’s been a shift in the atmosphere since the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk. A recognition of the symptoms of a deeply sick culture, and just how badly we need reform. But while many will call for change, few will be honest about what that change requires, what it must look like practically. For today, I want to speak to you from my heart – no notes, no news stories, no statistics, or facts or headlines. Just an open letter from myself to you on what we do next, and where hope in the

Ep. 53 | Debunking California's Gun Control Narrative

The California Conversation ·

2025/09/11

One common left-wing claim is that California’s strong gun control laws prevent gun violence in California so effectively that it is a model for the rest of the country. Our Governor has been an outspoken advocate for more gun control laws to prevent tragedies like mass shootings, and as a result California has become the most heavily regulated state when it comes to gun ownership. So, what are the facts about gun violence and what are effective ways to prevent it? Should the nation adopt

If you’ve been following the headlines lately, you’ve probably seen the claim that California’s crime rates are down, and our state is supposedly safer than Republican-led places like Tennessee or Arkansas. But if you live here, that may not match what you experience day to day. So, what’s the truth? Are crime rates really dropping in a meaningful way? And does Gavin Newsom’s leadership make California safer than it would be under a conservative governor? I’m breaking it all down for you today so

Governor Newsom’s appearance on The Shawn Ryan Show, In-N-Out’s move to Tennessee, his redistricting grandstanding and Trump-style antics on X, and California’s reckless decision to grant a commercial driver’s license to the illegal immigrant responsible for a deadly car crash all point to the same truth: when leaders show us who they are, believe them. These stories reveal a pattern of dishonesty, deflection, and arrogance in California leadership – leaders more focused on image than

Assembly Bill 495, the so-called Family Preparedness Act, has already passed the California Assembly and is expected to move through the Senate before landing on the Governor’s desk this fall. Its author frames it as a compassionate reform aimed at helping children whose parents, specifically illegal immigrants, are detained or deported, giving schools a faster way to ensure kids are cared for. But conservative groups are sounding the alarm, warning that the bill could put children at risk, make

Our beloved Governor, Gavin Newsom, is threatening to redraw political district lines (ahem, cutting Republican seats) if Texas moves forward with its own redistricting plan backed by President Trump. But is this fair representation or pure political retaliation?

Last week, an immigration raid at a farm in Camarillo led to hundreds of arrests and the rescue of migrant children. It’s no surprise that the raid sparked protests, gunfire, and national backlash. But the results of this raid go much deeper than just recent conversations around immigration policy – now there are serious questions of child trafficking, forced labor, and our state’s role in protecting children. We are going to get into all of it and how this raid connects to recent legislation passed

Happy Fourth of July! In this week’s episode, I take a deep dive into the Declaration of Independence and compare the colonists’ grievances with the British Crown to what we see happening in California today. From the explosion of unelected bureaucracies to the abandonment of public safety and parental rights, we explore how the very freedoms our nation was founded to protect are being quietly stripped away. Because the battle for liberty didn’t end in 1776—it begins again here, today, in
