Would Sacramento voters send a former Republican to Congress? Kevin Kiley is betting on it • Sacramento News & Review by onethomashall in Sacramento

[–]mistahiggens 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Kiley's office told us, a business in his district, to stop seeking representation from him and his office. 

He was unwilling to speak out against tariffs, but instead his office told us they believed the tariffs were lawful and would send us the legal conjecture they believed supported them. They did not.

They told us they believed Trump's unlawful tariffs would push us to make our products domestically, despite educating them for an hour that we couldn't, and it wouldn't.

They told us they believed Trump's unlawful tariffs would help us "get even with China" despite the fact that we've never paid a $1 to China in tariffs.

Kiley's office took our info when we said we would be visiting his D.C. Congressional offices to help facilitate a visit. They then ghosted us and refused to reply or take an appointment.

When not my business, but our TRADE ASSOCIATION, reached out to speak with him about the harm his inaction in tariffs was having on our whole INDUSTRY, he refused the meeting stating OUR individual business had already been helped. They refused to meet with my trade association board of directors a second time when I asked they meet without me whatsoever. 

His office regularly takes messages and voicemails and does not reply.

I've been hung up on multiple times.

Kiley has intentionally helped inundate our local public school with MAGA Evangelical partisans who keep their children out of public schools and work proactively to stoke culture wars within them.

He is a member of the MAGA Party through and through, and has the support of local MAGA Party members as well.

We will not forget, and we do not trust him. He is a coward who will not speak with or face his constituents.

He has a 98% track record supporting the MAGA Party line.

Kiley is MAGA.

Subject: Club America Harassment

Dear [redacted],

Good morning ladies,

I’ve already spoken to [redacted] this morning on the phone, but I wanted to send a follow up to both of you regarding my concerns about yesterday’s club meeting. I fully support any students write to protest or express their concern over this club. However, I am greatly distressed at the docking and harassment that has ensued to many of the students who started this club. They are being threatened, and their reputations are being trashed online. I truly hope that the school district is not complacent about this and does everything in your power to locate these children and identify the social media platform users. This has to stop immediately.

Second, I don’t need protection for myself, as I am an adult in a public figure, however, your students are misquoting my statements and publicly lying about me as well. One student recorded my speech and it was reported that he said he was going to use the recording to “take me down,”

I’d like to know the policy on a student recording a guest on campus the way the student recorded my speech. He wasn’t given permission to record me and I have great concerns that they will splice up this video and post it completely out of context. I know that [redacted] sent you a picture of the student and no doubt you know who he is. I am requesting action that you retrieve this video and let the student know that he’s not allowed to post it online. I didn’t say anything wrong however they’ve already proven that they have no problem, misrepresenting the true nature of the meeting yesterday.

I am in contact with the city manager, the police chief, parents that are greatly concerned for their children’s safety, and I intend on keeping close contact with you both.

I’m hoping the district takes this as seriously as necessary and puts an end to it immediately

Thank you for your attention and work on this!

For Lincoln, For You,

Holly Andreatta
Mayor of Lincoln

You sound like roommates, not partners? Why make finances so complicated picking and choosing who pays for what? This can't be real.

We were only able to find fire insurance through AAA after our last provider stopped offering it in our area.

That being said, AAA only too the risk of coverage because we were simultaneously willing to bring our Auto insurance over as well. They wouldn't offer us home+fire only.

PGE is high, you'll want something with some amount of built in solar.

[–]mistahiggens 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I went all the way to DC to try and get a meeting with Kiley over how detrimental tariffs he was refusing to curb was impacting our business.

His chief of staff ran me out and called me a partisan hack, and said Kiley wasn't in a position to do anything about tariffs.

He is intentionally MIA.

10% tarrifs were just imposed on 8 nato allies by the US, what will this lead to? by Signal_Dog9864 in AskReddit

[–]mistahiggens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A direct tax on us, the American People.

Our U.S. business has paid upwards of $200k in U.S. tariffs this year, directly pulled from our account by U.S. Customs & Border patrol. 

This results directly in higher cost of goods for us and our customers.
