The Wicked Witch of the West

Central Coast Assemblywoman Dawn Addis promotes wicked policies.

Dawn Addis may be lovely at a block party, a treasure to her close friends, a great mom to her kids. But our State Assemblywoman is the Wicked Witch of the West to American boys and girls in King City, Greenfield and Salinas. Their hardworking parents are going broke filling the tank and paying PG&E. Punching a clock doesn’t go as far as it used to when groceries break the bank. Forget a family vacation. Yosemite will have to wait — again.

Things get worse, much worse, if someone from a middle class family has to visit CHOMP. That can be ruin, all because of what the Wicked Witch of the West fights for in Sacto.

"Sacramento hashes out $321 billion budget"

A recent front-page article in the Pine Cone proves the point. It said that a wannabe President of the United States proposed cuts, before asking "lawmakers" to back off.

Lawmakers agreed to limited healthcare services for undocumented immigrants but not to eliminate the program altogether.

How did the chair of the Budget Sub handle this?

Local representative Dawn Addis chairs the Assembly Budget Subcommittee on Health and said this budget was incredibly challenging to craft. "Given the uncertainty of the moment, we are being proactive and delaying the most drastic healthcare coverage changes while we monitor the federal government’s decisions for our state."

IOW, she advocated that we keep spending $12 billion a year of California taxpayer money on illegal aliens. TWELVE BILLION DOLLARS a year not going to American citizens. Mrs. Addis must be big sad over those kids losing healthcare. She should be, but that’s not the point.

The citizens of Sand City & Big Sur & Seaside & Cachagua are the point. CITIZEN KIDS like Jack & Jill, Jose & Juanita are the point. AMERICA FIRST means AMERICANS FIRST.

Mrs. Addis apparently thinks otherwise. She pushes policies that put aliens over Americans.

Does this mean that Illegal Aliens should self-deport? Duh, yes. But that’s their decision. Luckily for them the Trump administration will pay for their flight home. Good deal.

Californian taxpayers can’t continue paying anywhere close to $12 billion a year on illegals. We the People CAN NOT DO IT. The Wicked Witch of the West will get that soon enough.

Monterey County Republican Party Denounces Dawn Addis

The burgeoning partnership between Burkean Nation & the Monterey County Republican Party (MCRP) took another step today with a press release denouncing Dawn Addis along the lines of this post. That's no coincidence, since I wrote both.

My hope is that this message strikes a chord with working folks in Del Rey Oaks, Marina, Monterey, Moss Landing, Pacific Grove, Sand City & Seaside. Not to mention Atascadero, Paso Robles, Morro Bay, Pismo Beach, San Luis Obispo, Soquel and Watsonville.

I appreciate that the MCRP is using its megaphone to urge citizens up and down the Central Coast to vote out Dawn Addis in November 2026.

Addis had a common sense challenger last time in Dalila Epperson, and may again. Given Addis's wicked performance this term, next November should go the godly Epperson's way.
