This TEA PARTIER Has Ties To Terrorist Groups … And HE'S RUNNING FOR GOVERNOR






Has California Assemblyman Tim Donnelly (R-33rd District) made it his goal to overthrow the government of California, and to hold onto that power with the threat of violence? That is one way in which his actions can be interpreted, anyway. In October he declared that he would work to recall his fellow politicians who voted against him in California’s state assembly over gun regulations, as you can see here. Because he lost a vote, he now demands the political death of his opponents. He has also thrown his hat into the governor’s race, and is hoping to unseat incumbent Jerry Brown. Do realize, the recall elections will now be held apart from the general election. It would seem that he is preparing for a takeover of state government by bypassing the voters’ will.


Meet Tim Donnelly, father, husband, terrorist.

In checking Assemblyman Donnelly’s policy and platform page, a scary realization comes to the forefront. Words he uses, like claims that the people are “sovereign,” is the language one finds from the Sovereign Citizens domestic terrorist front. Tim Donnelly is the leader for an organization affiliated with this front, the Minutemen. The Minutemen have a record of legal issues, including charges of murder against its members. Despite these ties, he remains an active member of this group.



Social media giving rise to new terror tactics.

The concern of Tim Donnelly ultimately is his disconnect from understanding civics. Proclaiming that citizens are above the law shows a gross distortion of how this nation, and his home state, are set up. According to the founding fathers, the US utilizes what is called “Popular Sovereignty,” a concept whereby the right to rule was a collective, not an individual right, and invested in to the people’s representatives.

They are voted in from racist enclaves within the state, and have zero chance of accomplishing anything besides frequently masturbating in public to their racist xenophobic political fantasies.
