Not only does she check all the progressive boxes needed to keep the various subsets of coalitions together, black, lesbian, abortion specialist etc; but Laphonza Butler also comes from the ideological stable and network of Barack Obama/Oprah Winfrey and was a former advisor to Kamala Harris. The fact that Butler lives as a registered voter in Maryland was a trifle issue of no consequence, all things considered.
The announcement before Dianne Feinstein is even buried is simply a reflection of how the Obama network views people as disposable once their usefulness is exhausted. The media need to play up the “narrow margin, votes are needed” angle in order to pretend the impropriety is unavoidable.
(VIA POLITICO) – California Gov. Gavin Newsom will appoint EMILY’s List President Laphonza Butler to fill the seat of the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein, elevating the head of a fundraising juggernaut that works to elect Democratic women who support abortion rights, according to a person familiar with the decision.
Newsom is moving swiftly to name the next senator, two days after Feinstein’s death and just as a perilously split Congress narrowly averted a government shutdown. Senate Democrats are in need of every vote in the closely divided chamber.
The announcement was expected to come Monday, and an adviser to the governor, Anthony York, told POLITICO that Newsom is making his appointment without putting limitations or preconditions on his pick running for the seat in 2024. That means Butler could decide to join the sprawling and competitive field of Democratic contenders seeking to succeed Feinstein, with special elections now layered on top of the March primary and November runoff.
Butler is expected to be sworn-in to the U.S. Senate on Wednesday by Vice President Kamala Harris.
Newsom’s selection of Butler comes at a moment of immense change in California’s political establishment, with millions of people still mourning the death of Feinstein, the barrier-breaking Senate lioness. Meanwhile the California governor, who was mentored by Feinstein, has been grappling with his own personal grief and the political ramifications of his choice to succeed her.
The people who spoke with POLITICO ahead of the announcement were granted anonymity to disclose internal deliberations. Butler is registered to vote in Maryland but will switch her registration to California. (read more)
Keep watching closely….
Biden doesn’t stand a chance.
Chicago!
Ugh
“millions of people still mourning the death of Feinstein”
should read
“a few kleptocrats are still mourning the death of Feinstein”
I’m sure the Chinese are upset…….
Or how about “millions of voters are celebrating”…..
My sentiments, exactly.
Well, at least she’s not being hired to fly airplanes. That’s what the airlines are doing. Eek.
I just got waterboarded with diversity and inclusion training, as if decent people don’t know already to treat people as the themselves want to be treated.
We are not a serious nation any more. We deserve to collapse.
…or perform gallstone surgery!
This pick seems about as wise as Karrine Jean Pierre or Ketanji Jackson Brown,
I cannot imagine how degrading it must feel to be chosen for a job simply because of your color, race or sex but then again we are not talking about normal people, we are talking about democrats.
It is all about the IQ level of the Tribal Peoples.
Now can you imagine how happy these people are to be chosen only because of their color, race, or sex and not IQ level, Content of Character, Relevant Education, Relevant Experience,…..you know, silly things like that….from AGES ago!!!
We are living in the era of HOW TO FAIL AND BE HAPPY AS A LOSER!!!!!
Yes they are the biggest pretenders of all.
Well, our IQ is nothing to brag about considering we keep voting for our own demise.
#KILLWHITEY
You can’t accuse Americans of voting for anything unless you’ve checked into what the election machines do.
We didn’t have “machines” in 1965. This is not something you can blame on that. It’s been going on for decades.
Yes, people voted for the people who brought the machines. Or maybe back then they used the many less-technological forms of election fraud to get the people who got the machines. In any case, yes, at some point people voted for this.
But to say people knowingly voted for those in office right now is like saying people deliberately injected themselves with COVID vaccine in order to kill themselves – yes, we had agency at some point, but there was also a lot of deception, and most of the blame is on the deceivers.
Doesn’t take a machine to cheat.
Doesn’t take cheating to be an idiot either.
Or, how to be incompetent and win
Ah, Affirmative Action and the soft bigotry of
lowno expectations …… the gift that keeps on
givingdestroying our society.Didn’t Laphonza used to be on Happy Days? 🙂
She was the shark.
You jumped me on that one!
nice volley you two
No, she was a toilet in Arnold’s Diner.
Good one
They have no shame!
That’s the beauty of AA, they can blame Whitey for that, just like they do everything else.
You forgot to add Kamala!
They don’t feel degraded. They feel smug.
Tried that crap with me at work. I told them their training was triggering my anxiety.
Haven’t had to take it since.
Well played.
You are an inspiration to us all.
I wish I had thought of that.
Unfortunately, any pilot making that claim will be standing before an FAA Medical Review Board.
We just have to roll with it. “Don’t fight it, but refuse to absorb it.”
I just let it play on mute until it is done then click okay and move on…
Make Blind Pilots Great For Once!
There’s a need to end the Kenyan’s influence! It doesn’t stop there either, McCarthy and McConnell gotta go too! There’s so many of them we’ll never vote our way out! Gotta keep the powder dry, for it may be needed sooner than anticipated! Ever get the feeling we’re the incarnation of our Forefathers? The timing is about right. Trump just might be a George Washington!
While I pray you’re right about George Washington, I fear he may become this era’s Nathan Hale with the sad part being, that We the People will not do anything when he gives all except shrug and say; Oh well, too bad.
We only use Mexican airlines. Beautiful stewardesses. Super safe and great promotions. De Nada
I used to train their pilots and I won’t set foot aboard one of their airplanes. That’s not an indictment of ME, btw.
They have been in the naughty unsafe list for a long time. Our lovely Bidenbots recently removed them from it. Ill give you two guesses as to why.
About the only foreign airline I trust is BA and they’ve got pilots being fired for snorting come on overnights.
The entire world has gone mad.
Can’t edit typos. Sorry about that.
On not in.
I’ll not ill.
Understood.
The lunatics have taken over the asylum….
Great song!
Great also for a tango or two
Love the Fun Boy Three and the Specials
There are plenty of crown agents who snort come.
Melnics, you brought back memories with your comment. I used to train pilots for a Chinese airline and the stories I have from that time would water your eyes! There isn’t enough “tea in China” for me to have actually flown with them! I trained a few other foreigners as well, but the Chinese took the blue ribbon.
Ah yes… When I was in flight school the Chinese students cracked up three planes in ten days on solo flights. There were some serious policy changes after that.
Nope.
If we who love the Lord but who are too cowed by evil to speak up and to truly follow the Lord don’t repent and call upon the Lord to heal our land, then yes, we will deserve to collapse.
God has already gamed this out.
“There is nothing new under the sun…”
The’s the most encouraging thing I’ve read in days.
Praise the Lord
We are commanded to be anxious over nothing. It is by far the hardest command for me to obey.
The inmates are running the asylum. Still…
Indeed.
Yes, and they are burning it all down, then moving on to the next one!
They themselves not the. Typo.
American Psycho. Looks just like Christopher Bale that played the part and Newsome is beyond evil. His mannerisms, creepy smile, slicked back hair and annoying voice. He terrifies me
Yup. I hear that. He is as deranged as can be……
I don’t believe in the lizard people meme-conspiracy theory. It’s hilarious, but I don’t believe it.
That being said, Gavin Newsom is a Reptoid and crawled out of a cave at some point.
He is related to Nancy Pelosi, so there is that!
By marriage. They are not blood relatives.
dd_sc: Even through marriage is a stretch. The “nephew of Pelosi” stuff needs to end.
Black lesbians. A group which has been infiltrating society for some time now.
Same old leftist tactics, but just add the race element…and now nobody is supposed to say anything.
Lmao 🤣
Dynamite meme! 🧨🧨
😂😂😂😂
Holy crap, how is it possible to appoint someone for this seat that is not a Commiefornian. SMFH.
California is under globalist rule. Check out this video. To build 15-minute cities, all rights have been taken away from California local boards. This is the state whose governor locked everyone down. Now they are trying to discourage the building of single-family homes. The homeless situation is being used to argue for high-density housing. Why would you expect the governor to follow the law and choose a rep from California to represent California?
This is happening everywhere. In my town in NY the same thing is occurring. I hope these are not barracks for armies.
No, Dems just have to house their voters in non-majority neighborhoods to get more votes and “transform” society into what they think it should be.
PS This is all Agenda 2021, removing the automobile and everything else from private ownership.
This woman is 100% correct!! The supermajority leftist State of CA Legislature has ELIMINATED all City rights to create their own General Plan and ELIMINATED all single family zoning. No single family should own a home in their warped opinion. Their vision is that seen in Dr. Zhivago … when the good Doctor’s Townhome was commandeered by the Bolsheviks and 10 unrelated people were moved in.
This is communist central planning … plain and simple.
Because it’s Commiefornia and they get to do whatever the hell they want.
Do you have any idea where the Calimexistan commies came from?
Carpetbaggers from the North East.
They’ve been moving here for about 40 years…
Premier Loathsom just proved it.
100% … I am a 4th generation Californian … My great grandparents driving a Model T from Erie, PA to San Diego in the summer of 1919 … when there were barely any paved roads, and certainly no highways. It was HARD to get here. The vast majority of leftist LOONS in this State have all been here less than 10 years. And they’ve ruined the place.
When America becomes supermajority leftist … America will be OVER
Zero Sucks.
Just now looked at A’crock Ofraudo’s Seiu picture
Sundance posted.
Fabulous! The pose! The mincing! The jazz hands!
Just needs a Judy Garland trannie look alike to complete
the picture.
I’m totally convinced and have been for quite some time.
clearly Newscum did not choose this chick the ds did.
.
Oh, I’m convinced. Terrified, but convinced….
You guys have no idea. Watch California Insider: they are very accurate.

Gavin was a wrecking ball.
Every one of the frauds pretending to run for President are also aware of this.
FYI. My son us a professional landscaping contractor in California. Decemberc31st is his last day in business after 26 years in business. All his workers are Hispanic. They are voting President Trump. Sickening democrats
Are they legal?
Does it really matter anymore?
Why does a California Governor get to decide who Maryland’s third Senator is? (Sarcasm intended).
Maybe, perhaps, sorta, kinda , it’s got something to do with a
mobbed up aunt of his that seems to always be surrounded
with goons from her old neck of the woods.
That would be auntie Pelosi (aka D’Lassandro in her maiden days).
Pelosi is SUPPOSED to represent Commifornia, but she
ALWAYS has an entourage of Maryland’s worst around her.
Would almost bet Pelosi is in on this one. It fairly reeks of her doing.
Pelosi is the gal that won her first election by tricking voters. She sent out flyers with an elephant on it to make people think she was a republican l
She has been tricking people for a very long time.
Yep, mobbed-up in MD is Pelosi’s home turf.
Are even the loony Californians not incensed?
It’s cute you think our opinions as residents mean a damn thing to the tyrants in Sacramento.
The ultra deep state, does as it pleases. So feinstein’s replacement isn’t even from california, doesn’t matter, who’s going to question it? Absolutely no one.
Laphonza sounds like some kind of toilet.
Pardon me while a go to the Laphonza.
Call her The Fonz
She also answers to Arthur.
Butler Buther what’s in the name for these degenerates
I have to admit I first read the name as lalaploza.
Aren’t they the little people in Willie Wonka?
Might be.
An Oompa Loopa would have been a better choice.
My bad. I did too.🤪
Used to be a concert in the summer, “Lalapalooza”
If you’ve ever wondered what the Jewish people were feeling during Hitler’s reign, just look in the mirror.
Thoughtful point.
for what it’s worth, adam schiff must be heartbroken
Probably clued in on the game. These people have no scruples.
Ya gotta have some class to have any scruples!
One could only hope. Would be a shame if he joined Feinstein singing in the
choir invisible.
He will be paid handsomely for taking a hit.
Maybe he’ll transition.
If he had one.
Well he could have chosen Barbara Lee. Choosing someone outside of the current candidates doesn’t hurt Schiff.
I’m about one breath away from being as fed up and disgusted with my government as I can be.
The corruption defies imagination.
But Trump is on trial! The brand new USSA…
Well this is Willie Brown’s neck of the woods.
In-Your-Face-3rd-World-Communism!
Learn IT, Live IT, Love IT!!!
Never in my 74 yrs of life on this earth did I ever believe I would see the Communists actually take-over our Constitutional Republic….not E.V.E.R.
But Khrushchev warned us with the Truth of the Coming Takeover…and I was just a liddle kid…very scared…when I watched him pounding his shoe on the podium…
We ARE HERE!!
Only Donald John Trump can stop this and turn it around with God’s Grace By His Side Daily.
Pray, Pray, Pray!!!!
Yes, they do come from the stable, muck and all.
He could have appointed Angela Davis. She lives in California and is getting close to the usual age for senators. She is only 79.
She’s not stupid enough!
Harold Haley (judge) – Useful Stooges
“Davis was in love with, and secretly married to, a gangster named George Jackson, who, like her, was a Communist and Black Panther leader. After he committed five armed robberies, he was caught, tried, convicted, and incarcerated at Soledad State Prison in California. The Black Panthers later published a collection of his prison letters; Davis, for her part, spearheaded an effort to secure his release, along with that of two fellow Marxists who were also confined at Soledad. The men were collectively known as the Soledad Brothers.
On August 7, 1970, Jackson’s 17-year-old brother, Jonathan, entered a Marin County courtroom in which another punk, James McClain, was on trial for murdering a prison guard. Jonathan brought with him plenty of weapons, which he handed to McClain and to two other convicts who were present in the courtroom as witnesses. Jonathan and the three jailbirds then took hostage the presiding judge, Harold Haley, a father of three, along with the prosecutor and three of the jurors.
Jonathan and the convicts took their hostages out of the courthouse and drove off with them in a van. Jonathan’s goal was to hijack a plane, fly the hostages to Cuba, and exchange them for his brother’s freedom. But he didn’t get that far. At a roadblock, he and his pals got into a shootout with police. Jonathan, Judge Haley, and the two convicts were killed; the prosecutor was paralyzed for life; and a juror was injured. It was soon discovered that some of the guns Jonathan had brought into the courtroom had been purchased by Davis only days earlier. Charged with conspiracy, kidnapping, and murder and placed on the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted List, Davis took it on the lam; after a few months underground, she was tracked down by cops at a Howard Johnson’s motel in Manhattan.”
Angela Davis’ shotgun taped to Judge Harold Haley’s neck. Hard to believe now, but the FBI actually pursued her.
California Democrats rewarded her with a Professorship for blowing the judge’s head off.
Thanks for the reminder.
Wow! Did not know this story. Wondering how the local community college had Davis as a speaker with this history.
I had read this moming that Lalapalouza is on the UC Board of Regents. Looking on the website and she left the board in 2021:
https://regents.universityofcalifornia.edu/about/regents%20emeriti.html
She currently has no connection to California.
At this point:
“What Difference Does It Make?”
I just left this summer. I still have earnings from California in this tax year. Maybe I can run for Senator!
.
I saw that she also had some leadership position at AirBnB.
Gee. How many states could she ‘find’ an address in to claim residency, register to vote, and get ballots sent out to . . .?
Joe Joe: Excellent research. The UC Regents are all committed to the globalist, multi-culti, collectivist “struggle.” UC campuses are giant indoctrination factories. This includes the healthcare campuses.
Well she did represent AirBnB in their bid to upend housing in CA and make it unaffordable and then PG&E, who’ve started numerous fires.
The Star Wars cantina scene characters are getting jealous that the US senate members are out- weirding them…
Talk about racist and sexist!
Pay attention to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, backed/supported by Soros to register Dem voters and promote Gavin Newsom in 2024. https://jessicareedkraus.substack.com/p/has-taylor-swift-been-activated-by?
BTW, if Tucker is right abt Trump not being the GOP nominee, none of this matters.
Trump will have to run as an independent?
I’ll write Trump in if I have to. Anything else would be dishonest on my part.
D.C. is Mad Max now
U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) was carjacked at gunpoint in Washington, D.C. tonight.
Drive a stick shift and you won’t get carjacked. Dudes don’t know how to drive one.
I was asked that very question the other day, my pickup is a stick. That was my answer, I’ll never get carjacked..
All of the D’s deserve this (and most of the R’s).
You might say Newsom has jumped the shark with this Laphozie pick.
My dad always said there’s an ass for every seat.
. . . but Maryland?
She’ll be the senator for DC and vote however she is told.
It’s going to get so much worse before we have a chance at making it better.
That’s the spirit.
JeanneDark: Heh!
Wait, I thought Obama was our historic first black lesbian U.S. Senator.
INSTALLED PRESIDENT!
Most Important!
Good one, except that lesbians don’t sleep with dudes.
BFSC (Black Female Superiority Complex)
I pray that God’s wrath is delivered upon these demons(literally). I know everything is His timing. I hope it’s soon and devastating
Her bio says; She was born in Magnolia, Mississippi and Graduated from Jackson State University.
I bet she has homestead exemption and is registered to vote there too! Just like Maryland.
I feel like I’ve outgrown Ayn Rand in certain regards, although I treasure the growth that comes from studying her work, but these quotes are definitely appropriate:
–Ayn Rand
https://www.azquotes.com/author/12074-Ayn_Rand/tag/society
And this was in the late 1930’s!
Thank you for this. She tried to warn us. God bless and keep all Treepers and like thinkers and patriots, and especially Donald J. Trump!
I suppose he COULD have picked Jacinta Ardern.
I mean, why let foreign citizenship stand in your way? Nothing else does.
That woman… yuk
I think she will be Gavins 2024 VP choice.
She cannot run on the same ticket as Newsom if she is going to claim to live in California.
The Yankees didn’t want to be governed by two Virginians and the Virginians didn’t want to be governed by two Bostonians.
Eh…what’s a little Constitutional “problem” when you’ve got a country to destroy!
right her appoint now violates the Constitution, so it wont stand in their way in the future.
She’ll just switch her registration to her place of birth – Mississippi.
If she looks like a quack and talks like a quack, she might be a quack.
I’m so sick of the anti-white racism that I could just vomit. Black democrats are being used to turn the USA into a hellhole because to oppose them means you’re lower than Hitler.
13% of the population, most of the crime, most of the communists in DC. UGH!
The bastards have been blatantly anti Western European. The very ones who made this the greatest country on the earth by the Providence of God. They want to destroy us. They hope to make America a third world shithole. They will live in splendor, and we will be groveling serfs…..at least in their model. I’ll never be a servant to anyone, except my Lord. If one looks at history, this only stops when terror and devastation is brought to their doorsteps. Their pleading will fall on deaf ears
First thought – she was an advisor to Kamala Harris during several of her campaigns. Graduate of Jackson State University 96% minority which accepts 62% of applicants. Hmmm…..
Second thought on reading “Meanwhile the California governor…has been grappling with his own personal grief…” Grinning, greasy hair Newsome feels about as much grief as Machiavelli on steroids.
Then I started reading about her. Net worth – $16 million. Annual income $5 million. Owns investments and 7 properties including a lavish mansion which she has put up for sale because she wants an even more lavish mansion. More here:
https://www.caclubindia.com/wealth/laphonza-butler-net-worth/
It all fits. Maryland is really just a suburb of California. Yes, on a different coast but still a suburb. Virginia better watch out, it’s trying its best to match Maryland.
California East.
This is the way Blagojevich should have done it, instead of getting recorded on some phone call talking about his “golden thing amabob “.
Obummer must have promised Gov Nuisance the future assistance of his criminal electioneering enterprise.
Leaked video has emerged of Newsom offering “LaFawnduh Butler” the Senate seat….did I spell her name right?
Monte Python was never this crazy.
.
U.S. Constitution says must be resident of state when “elected”. This woman was not a resident when “selected”. Lawsuit? I think this is more serious than maybe some think. How could she represent the interests of California. Nnnn…
.
She owns homes and property in CA.
Hedging her bets?
.
Not determinative. Where does she vote, and what does her driver license say.
.
Exactly, if she isn’t registered to vote in a California county at the time of selection, she shouldn’t be senator. What will it take to wake Californians up and have them actual protest and demand good governance. This is not an ambassador appointment, in which wealthy donor appointments are par for the course. This is CA corruption at its finest.
but isn’t registered to vote there. You’re supposed to register where you spend over half the year if you have multiple homes. This pick is evidentiary of how little the left cares about governance election integrity.
No senator really “represents the interests of” their state, do they?
Well CA does in that it is interesting in exporting its programs to the nation – UBI, DEI, new pronouns, “affordable housing” to change demographics to their favor, house the voters they ushered over the border, and support wealthy developers who line their coffers.
I hope someone throws Any Twosome in prison for plotting to benefit from a senate pick.
Just like Frank Davis’ son did to Blago.
She doesn’t even live in California! How is this legal?
Should have been Meghan that way we could have called Harry the first douchebag
I’m not getting this one at all. What is the purpose?
It’s a violation of California law for Butler to be appointed.
Will Republicans say anything? Hahhaha!. Of course not. They’re a joke, and the joke’s on voters. Commies vote for Democrats, idiots vote for Republicans.
About the only thing McCain got right was his attack line on Obama that he didn’t need lectures from a “Chicago politician.” Too bad he was a swamp creature himself.
