“…when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”

History repeats.
From the Declaration of Independence: “He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers. He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance. He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation: For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us: For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States: For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world: For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent: For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:”

America celebrates the Declaration of Independence on the 4th of July.
Not the end of the Revolutionary War on September 3rd.

When governments are more hurtful than helpful, it’s OUR DUTY to de-ratify & institute our own government.
For the people, by the people.

Another out of control ICE raid in a sanctuary city.
Another violation of our First Amendment rights.

It’s day 212 of the fascist regime. They’re not stopping. It’ll only get worse.

In case you missed it– the CNP is putting forth a candidate in the upcoming gubernatorial election!

Sean Forbes is not a career politician. He is a Californian first & foremost– prioritizing people over politics with concrete solutions.

No other political party can claim the same!

CALIFORNI NATIONAL PARTY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT Join the California National Party (CNP) in our urgent mission to reclaim California's future! We need a governor who stands outside the two-party system to champion the issues that matter most to our communities. With the current political landscape failing to address critical crises like ICE kidnappings, climate change, and civil rights, it's time for a bold new direction. Support our campaign for Sean Forbes, and together, we can demand the meaningful change California deserves! CALIFORNIA IS IN CRISIS The existing political parties, including the California Democratic Party, lack concrete plans to combat ICE kidnappings, address climate change, and protect civil rights. They have ignored vital proposals, such as expanding the State Guard to monitor ICE and establishin CalDefense to unify emergency services during climate crises. All political parties in California continue to trust a judicial system that Trump and the GOP have undermined by disregarding court orders, eliminating due process, and threatening a third Trump term-actions that violate the 22nd Amendment. Responses from these partie: ignore the reality that the Supreme Court is now a politicized body, heavily influenced by Trump appointees. Despite creating an $83 billion surplus for the federal government, Governor Newsom's threats to withhold federal tax money from the Trump regime have proven empty, leaving Californians vulnerable. Our Solution: Only the California National Party is committed to reforming California's political system through a State Constitutional Convention, defending democracy, making housing and healthcare human rights, and establishing ranked-choice voting for electoral fairness. We are running Sean Forbes, Chair of the CNP, because California needs a new direction. This campaign won't be easy, but change is possible— just as it was in New York with Zohran Mamdani, who started with zero support in the first mayoral polls. The tim…

Reported 50 ICE cars & 100 agents are swarming Little Tokyo, Los Angeles.
It’s right outside Gov. Newsom’s press office.

Intimidation tactics & propaganda are hallmarks of fascism.
Fear and compliance keep them in power.

“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to break free…”

American democracy is an illusion. We live in fascism. It’s clearer every day.

LA is a sanctuary city – and we are funding these government kidnappings.

America is officially a dictatorship.

This fascist regime is in the process of eradicating our inconvenient truths for a convenient lie.

It won’t stop at federal museums… white washed history is coming soon to your kids’ K-12 education.

California needs independence. NOW!

The WHITE HOUSE (d) "Patriotic education" means a presentation of the history of America grounded in: (i) an accurate, honest, unifying, inspiring, and ennobling characterization of America's founding and foundational principles; (ii) a clear examination of how the United States has admirably grown closer to its noble principles throughout its history; (ili) the concept that commitment to America's aspirations is beneficial and justified; and (iv) the concept that celebration of America's greatness and history is proper.

It's been abundantly clear that US has a travel advisory, is detaining tourists or denying them entry, and is currently committing crimes against humanity.

But, sure, it's the Millennials & Gen Z that are not spending enough money...

If the California Republic was in Europe it would be one of the larger countries by land size & population… with the largest economy.

We need no one. The Feds are using our money to fund the ICE terror they are inflicting on us.

The Fed Fascists can use out taxes to fund our oppression because of how cheated out of representation we are in DC.

All of the states presented here in blue get two senators whereas the 10 million + folks living in LA County have to share their 2 senators with 30,000,000 other Californians.
