For the love of God and people created in His image, SaveCalifornia.com is reminding voters to do the hard math in California’s U.S. Senate contest. Because, in California’s “jungle primary,” only two candidates will advance to the general election. And every indication is that will be either be a Democrat and a Republican, or two Democrats.
If you don’t want the latter scenario, then the real question for California conservatives is: Is Republican Steve Garvey acceptable? That’s the question we unpack for you at our SaveCalifornia.com Pro-Family Election Center. Please visit and urge your friends to visit!
“For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it — lest, after he has laid the foundation, and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’ Or what king, going to make war against another king, does not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? Or else, while the other is still a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks conditions of peace.” Jesus Christ, Savior of the world and God in the flesh, in Luke 14:28-32

JANUARY 30 UPDATE:If you called, you and others helped stop this radical, pro-crime bill! AB 742 did not come up for an Assembly floor vote before adjournment of a brief floor session. And tomorrow (January 31), is the legislative deadline for two-year bills to pass their house of origin, and the Assembly isn’t meeting that day. So AB 742 is dead!
From policemag.com (1/25/24): Former police officer and K-9 unit member, Ronald Davis, says he’s puzzled by the push for this legislation. “Our dogs are there … because they help protect and defend,” he said. “Yes, they do bite people. But what the people trying to get this bill passed don’t tell you is how often they stop suspects with weapons who would have otherwise harmed an officer.”
He told the California Globe, “I don’t see how this can be passed. So many people came out against it last year, and unless they make big changes, it will entice no one else. People know how important police dogs are.”
Here’s our January 19 post with our anti-crime, pro-police-dog alert (again, thank you for following SaveCalifornia.com’s lead and calling — we knew this was a moral opportunity for reasonable Californians!):
Some Democrat Party politicians want to prohibit police dogs taking down criminal suspects. But you can help stop them — right now!
But first, to convince you that most two-year bills (bills that couldn’t pass last year) can be defeated this year, recognize and rejoice in the defeat of the invasive, pansy ban on pre-teen tackle football leagues:
Newsom – who knows he’s getting beat up nationally as being “too liberal” to be the Democrat Party nominee for president – is highly motivated to try to “improve” his image, in this case, to families nationwide who like youth tackle football.
What these radical Democrat bills show you – including the ones passed by California’s Democrat-Party-controlled State Legislature and signed by Democrat Party Gov. Gavin Newsom over the past several years – is that Democrat politicians have an insatiable lust to invade every space in order to control everyone and everything.
They are the anti-liberty party, otherwise known as New Communist Democrats and unconstitutional tyrants.
TAKE ACTION: And now, please oppose a pro-crime bill prohibiting the use of police dogs from helping police to apprehend criminal suspects.
AB 742 has until Jan. 31 to pass the Democrat-controlled State Assembly. This bad bill would prohibit unleashing police dogs to find or take down a suspect.
AB 742 is pro-crime because it stops the apprehending of criminal suspects. Because if a suspect is hiding from or running away from police, a police dog can find him and hold him.
Yet the “defund the police” Democrat Party politicians want to straitjacket police dogs and let criminal suspects get away. Police across America are shaking their heads over this.
The present danger is AB 742 is already on the Assembly floor, on the “inactive file,” where it’s been for more than 8 months. And it can be brought up for a vote any time the Democrat-controlled Assembly meets the remainder of this month.
PLEASE ACT NOW:Call and email your own state assemblymember. Tell him or her, “Oppose AB 742 — stop siding with criminals!” And yes, if your assemblymember’s voicemail is “on,” you can leave a weekend message.
For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.The Bible, Romans 13:3

Now that the New Year is here, I want to remind you of an important fact of life: People who see themselves as difference-makers indeed succeed.
As Christian motivational speaker Zig Ziglar said, “I believe success is achieved by ordinary people with extraordinary determination.”
I agree with this, as long as both the means and the end are God-approved. Because ultimately, the only successes that last are those that receive the applause of heaven.
Yet it’s also true that persistence and endurance are Bible-based qualities, as are the values of faith, hope, and love for Creator God and people.
I hope these admirable merits describe you as a follower of SaveCalifornia.com. I know they reflect my desires as the leader of our Christian-values organization since our founding in 1999.
Truth-tellers and difference-makers have an incredible opportunity in California right now. Because the pain and fear caused by the New Communist Democrats are definitely being felt. From inflation to crime to illegal aliens to transients to crazies targeting kids, reasonable Californians want solutions to big problems!
You and SaveCalifornia.com are part of the answer. As we educate the public on the cause and effect of problems, and point the way toward solutions, more people will follow, learn, and change. From the Bible, from history, and from real life, I know this to be true.
Thank you for following or even financially supporting SaveCalifornia.com’s work for you in 2023. For 2024, I wish you a Courageous and Faith-Filled New Year!
