sticking together in tough times

  John: I know there’s a lot of anxiety over the Coronavirus. Besides those battling the virus, my heart aches for those that are losing work over this. I’m not sure if I can do anything for you, but if I can I’m here. Now is the time to reach out to those around us and do our best to h…

3pm Today

  John: My radio show resumes today on NewsRadio 600 KOGO - 3 to 6pm! I’ve missed using the show as our daily bully-pulpit to inform and engage voters in the fight to take back California. Today we’re talking Coronavirus and Gov Newsom’s Executive Order banning any event with 250 people…

crushing blow
