Why SCOTUS didn’t overturn Newsom & Co.’s unfair and racist Prop. 50

Wednesday, February 4, 2026, 8:41 pm | Randy Thomasson

Why are Californians stuck with the unfair, racist Prop. 50?

The U.S. Supreme Court’s one-sentence denial of the Trump Administration’s emergency appeal petition on Feb. 4 means that Republican candidates for U.S. congressional districts in California will suffer confusion and loss (Feb. 9 is the start of the window for congressional candidates to file paperwork declaring their candidacies).

Why did this happen? Because the 6 “Republicans” on the U.S. Supreme Court have apparently decided to let individual states redraw congressional districts mid-term. They let Texas do it on Dec. 4, and now they’re “being consistent” to let California do it too.

Thus, the “chickens” on the nation’s high court have avoided applying to California’s Proposition 50 the “equal protection” or “due process” clauses of the 14th Amendment and the 15th Amendment’s prohibition of voting laws elevating “race” and “color” above others.

Hopefully, President Donald Trump is learning that he needs to nominate constitutional fighters, not politically-correct “conservatives,” like he did his first term. For there’s a big difference between Texas getting rid of racist maps and California promoting racism and breaking other laws in its Prop. 50 scheme.

SCOTUS’s cowardly deed means California Republicans will likely lose five congressional seats. And while some principled conservatives are happy to get rid of some RINOs, SaveCalifornia.com has consistently opposed Prop. 50 for its unfair gerrymandering.

As for the Republican majority in the U.S. House of Representatives, I think it will likely hold this year, since there are more Republican states doing redistricting than Democrat Party states. But since Congress has so many RINOS — Republicans In Name Only — who vote for the Swamp and with the Democrats — the bigger question is, will our Republic hold?

It’s going to be a wild and vitally important election year — and your active participation is definitely needed!

Contrary to House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries’ nutty claim that Republicans are trying to “steal the midterm elections” by redistricting in Texas, state legislators there are trying to correct what the Justice Department correctly calls “unconstitutional racially based” gerrymanders … Contrary to the discrimination claims they’re making in the press, it is these errant Democrats—not Republicans—who think there is nothing wrong with judging how people will vote based on the color of their skin and who want to preserve the racist redistricting.

Will election fraud finally be exposed in California?

Friday, January 16, 2026, 5:51 pm | Randy Thomasson

This California judge is wrong!

Because federal law REQUIRES states to keep voter registration data ACCURATE and CURRENT, and the federal government has jurisdiction to enforce the National Voter Registration Act (commonly known as the “motor voter law”).

I expect this unconstitutional, anti-election-accuracy opinion of Democrat Party U.S. Judge David O. Carter to eventually reach the U.S. Supreme Court for an easy ruling in favor of the Trump Administration’s and Judicial Watch’s efforts to examine the voter rolls and then require that illegals, dead people, and people who’ve moved be removed.

It’s a good start that the Trump Administration is fighting to get illegal aliens off the voter rolls. While we need the DOJ to do a full-scale investigation to expose California election fraud, it’s important and helpful that they’re demanding voter registration data from 40 states, and suing Democrat-Party-run states, including California.

Illegal aliens ARE registered to vote in California – by the millions. It was recently discovered that nearly half a million illegals requested excusal from California jury pools because they weren’t citizens – but they ARE registered voters.

Here’s the judge’s biased blatherings reported on Yahoo News:

A federal judge on Thursday dismissed a U.S. Justice Department lawsuit demanding California turn over its voter rolls, calling the request “unprecedented and illegal” and accusing the federal government of trying to “abridge the right of many Americans to cast their ballots.”

U.S. District Judge David O. Carter, a Clinton appointee based in Santa Ana, questioned the Justice Department’s motivations and called its lawsuit demanding voter data from California Secretary of State Shirley Weber not just an overreach into state-run elections, but a threat to American democracy.

“The centralization of this information by the federal government would have a chilling effect on voter registration which would inevitably lead to decreasing voter turnout as voters fear that their information is being used for some inappropriate or unlawful purpose,” Carter wrote. “This risk threatens the right to vote which is the cornerstone of American democracy.”

On the U.S. DOJ website:

52 U.S.C. § 20507 … requires procedures to maintain accurate and current voter registration lists. These requirements govern, among other issues:

  • The date by which valid voter registration applications must be accepted and eligible persons registered,
  • Changes in a registrant’s address information,
  • Limits on removal of names from the voter registration list, and
  • Administration of a uniform, nondiscriminatory voter registration list maintenance program that complies with the Voting Rights Act (VRA”).

Other recent news on this initial battle to combat fraud by cleaning the voter rolls:

Jan 12: “Voter fraud alarm: 449,000 non-citizens reportedly excused from jury duty in California, raising red flags on voter rolls”

In a state already notorious for its lax election laws and ballooning non-citizen population, a resurfaced claim is reigniting fierce debate over voter integrity: Did nearly half a million Californians dodge jury duty by admitting they aren’t U.S. citizens—while somehow remaining on the voter registration lists? 

The allegation, which has circulated for years but gained fresh traction on social media this weekend, points to a potential massive loophole in California’s “Motor Voter” system, where DMV interactions automatically register eligible voters but, critics argue, fail to weed out the ineligible. 

The claim traces back to data from California’s Judicial Council, which reported around 449,000 individuals disqualified from jury service in a single fiscal year due to non-citizen status. Proponents of the narrative assert these same people were pulled from voter rolls for jury pools, exposing widespread non-citizen registration. 

“This is how OUT OF CONTROL California is,” blasted conservative influencer Mila Joy in a viral X post that garnered over 36,000 likes and millions of views. “449,000 REGISTERED VOTERS couldn’t perform jury duty because they weren’t citizens. But they are REGISTERED VOTERS! A half a million of them.” 

Jan 9: “Oregon election officials to begin purging rolls of inactive voters”

As Oregon kicks off a general election year, Secretary of State Tobias Read is taking what he says is the overdue step of cleaning up the state’s voter rolls. That process could lead to the cancellation of as many as 800,000 registrations … Oregon currently has 3,063,747 registered, active voters. About 800,000 more voters’ registration status is inactive because their mail, including ballots or official notices, from county elections offices has been returned undelivered.

Jan 6: “DOJ sues Arizona, Connecticut for refusing to hand over voter rolls”

The Justice Department has sued Arizona and Connecticut for refusing to hand over their full voter registration lists, making them the 22nd and 23rd states to be targeted by the Trump administration in its litigious campaign over voter data ahead of the midterm elections.

The lawsuits were filed Tuesday, with Attorney General Pam Bondi arguing she is charged by Congress to ensure that states have proper and effective voter registration and voter list maintenance programs.

She also threatened that she has the Civil Rights Act of 1960 to demand the statewide voter registration lists.

“Accurate voter rolls are the foundation of election integrity, and any state that fails to meet this basic obligation of transparency can expect to see us in court,” she said in a statement.

The Justice Department has sent demands for the voter registration rolls to at least 40 states and the District of Columbia, according to the Brennan Center for Justice.

California oil: Will truth overcome the Left’s lies?

Friday, December 12, 2025, 9:47 am | Randy Thomasson

See our 12/5/25 blog, “California’s gasoline supply is evaporating.”

Is relief from high gasoline prices on the way for Californians and Americans?

Offshore oil holds great potential to increase supply and thereby lower the costs of both gasoline and natural gas — and electricity. Because around 37% of California’s electricity is generated by natural gas, which is often extracted alongside oil.

And offshore oil drilling is better than ever, with these significant improvements required by the U.S. government since October 2011, which have proven effective in preventing large spills:

  • Sturdier wells
  • Improved blowout protectors
  • Robotic subs on every oil rig
  • Improved preparedness for future blowouts
  • Improved technology for tracking and controlling released oil

From MSN 12/10/25

“Offshore oil drilling could begin in Southern California for the first time in decades, due to a proposal from the Trump administration to open federal waters off the entire state coastline.

“Drilling in the Pacific Ocean could begin as soon as 2027 off Southern and Central California — and in 2029 off Northern California — if President Donald Trump’s offshore plan moves forward. But many state leaders and residents are already mobilizing in opposition.

“Offshore operations supply about 15 percent of the nation’s domestic oil, according to the Department of the Interior. Federal estimates indicate the Outer Continental Shelf still holds roughly 68.8 billion barrels of undiscovered oil and 229 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.

“Environmental groups in California have been outspoken in their opposition, but the American Petroleum Institute and other leading oil and gas associations backed reviewing new Outer Continental Shelf leasing areas in a June letter.

“In 2050, as is the case today, more than half of U.S. demand is expected to be met by oil and natural gas,” they wrote. “Continuous exploration and drilling will be needed to meet these expectations.”

NOTE: New oil pumped offshore (federal jurisdiction) would likely have to be shipped to non-California refineries, since California’s Democrat Party politicians are expected to continue to block pipelines and trucks on “their land.”

Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”
The Bible, Genesis 1:26-28
