Los Angeles Sheriff Alex Villanueva has received bitterly disappointing news from the county board of supervisors, stripping him of his title as chief of emergency operations citing his prior ineptitude in times of crisis.
The decision was unanimous and comes following Villanueva’s flirtation with the idea of closing down gun stores during the coronavirus pandemic, but was made in response to his mismanagement of the 2018 Woolsey Fire.
Per the Daily Wire:
The Los Angeles Times reports that the unanimous decision was made on Tuesday morning, several months after the board of supervisors brought up the need to remove the emergency responsibilities from the sheriff’s office. The decision does not change Villanueva’s designation as sheriff, a position he was elected to serve until 2022.
The decision consolidates the emergency response duties with the county’s chief executive, a move Villanueva has called a “brazen attempt to consolidate power.”
“This is pretty much a silent coup, what they’re trying to orchestrate,” Villanueva previously told the news agency, remarking that the board of supervisors was retaliating against him for trying to close gun shops. “We should be worried about masks, about test kits.”
“This is not about him,” Supervisor Sheila Kuehl said at Tuesday’s meeting, which was conducted online, reports the news agency. “He was not really elected to represent county residents. The five of us were,” she continued, arguing the move was a matter of public safety.

Do You Still Stand With Trump? [TELL US NOW]
Most likely a friend of Hillary’s. ” Disarm the masses , they are easier to control “. Every power mad person thinks like that. Hillary needs to change her name to ” Hitleray “
HILDABEAST. I KNOW THE CLINTON’S PERSONALLY. EVIL.
AMERICANS WE HAVE TO TAKE BACK OUR AMERICA FROM THE EVIL CRIMINAL ACTS OF DEMOCRATS………………………..TO SOLVE AMERICAS PROBLEMS MAKE THIS CHOICE WE THE PEOPLE’ HAVE THE POWER OF OUR VOICES AND OUR VOTES, TO VOTE OUT THE ENTIRE LYING,CORRUPT, TREASONOUS DEMOCRAT PARTY COME NOV 2020, VOTE TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN AND TO END ALL CORRUPTIONS IN WASHINGTON GOVERNMENT
“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” (Isaiah 5:20).
Villanueva was acting just like Clay Jenkins did in Dallas Texas. His use of the word “coup” indicates that he was thinking of himself like a POTUS. That is what a coup is. Too bad for his power grab. Just like Clay Jenkins, they reveal just how inept they truly are. And how much like Hillary in their drive to GET POWER.
God help them.
Want to remove him from office? Stop the illegals in LA from voting. The Democrats made a bad mistake. They thought they would get all the illegals to vote for them. NOT. They will put in corrupt latinos.
You patriots had better wake up and move out before God sends the BIG ONE.
Corona is just a part of GOD’S JUDGEMENT.
Sounds like the people of L.A. are sick of their cities downward spiral under inept leadership. I wonder if Waters and Schiff are the next to feel their wrath?
They should!!! If those two oxygen thieves are jailed, the State – and the Country – would be a lot safer.
I understand removing the power from this guy. He sounds like a liberal hack that is controlled by the legislature. The sheriff is elected by the people and only accountable to the people. This woman should learn history and the powers of the Sheriffs office. Apparently even the sheriff does not understand who he is accountable to.
thats california !!!!!
All American Law Enforcement officers or Sheriffs who “diminish” any of our rights–including the second amendment should be immediately recalled or fired. Any elected official that denigrates others or publicly exhorts any bias should be recalled for diminishing their office and betraying the public trust.
I live in California none of these people give a horses ass about the American people. They make it easy for illegal aliens to vote not for us Americans. This was most likely noticed by someone who has money who will sue so they did this to pretend they cared. Police protect illegals not us the people. Americans would never be dealing with a virus if they had an iota of respect of us the citizens. They have a progressive agenda I trust none.
you all elected them
HOW ANNOYINGLY INANE AND STUPID PEOPLE ARE WHO CAN’T SEEM TO GET THE CONNECTION THAT AN UNARMED NATION WILL SOON BE A SUBDUED NATION BY OUR ENEMIES….SOME OF WHICH ARE IN OUR OWN FAMILIES, NEIGHBORHOODS, GOV’T..
THE FOOLISH PROPAGANDA THAT THE NATION WOULD BE SAFER WITHOUT GUNS COMES FROM THE MOUTHS OF OUR INTERNAL ENEMIES. WE’D BE SAFER BY WEEDING THEM OUT.
I DIDN’T SEE OBAMA DISMISSING HIS SECURITY SERVICE, THE SHERIFF RETIRING HIS SIDEARM, ETC., ETC..
SO, WHAT DO THESE IDIOTS THINK? THAT WHEN ALL THE GUNS ARE MELTED DOWN FOR “OSCAR AWARDS” AND OUR ENEMIES COME FOR US, WE’LL INVITE THEM IN FOR TEA/CRUMPETS, A PRAYER MEETING, WITH CHOIR PRACTICE AFTERWARD???
THE DEPRAVITY AND SECRET AGENDA OF THE GUN SNATCHERS ARE MORE DEADLY THAN ANY CANNON.
EVEN THE CAVEMEN WERE BRIGHT ENOUGH TO KNOW THEY NEEDED SPEARS; GOLIATH WAS BROUGHT DOWN BY SLINGSHOT AND STONE, NAVAL PROTECTORS NEEDED CANNON, SWORDS, NATIVE AMERICANS, BOWS/ARROWS/TOMAHAWKS; EARLY SETTLERS, SIX-SHOOTERS, RIFLES, ETC..
BOY! ARE WE GOING BACKWARD, SPAWNING A BUNCH OF IGNORANT PUSSIES WHO WANT TO GET RID OF GUNS! MAYBE THEY’D BE MORE COMFORTABLE BEING CARVED TO PIECES WITH A MACHETE. THEY’RE THE ONES WHO’D BE TURNING TAIL AND RUNNING WHILE OTHERS ARE STANDING UP FOR THE FIGHT.
CRIMINALS ARE NOT GOING TO BE STOPPED BY GUN SEIZURE. THEY WILL BE DETERRED BY REALIZING A LOT OF AMERICA IS ARMING. HOW MANY MORE TIMES DO THEY HAVE TO HAVE THIS POINTED OUT?
THIS GOES FOR THE CRIMINAL ELEMENT OF OUR GOV’T. OF WHICH WE’VE ALL HAD A GOOD LOOK AT WITH THE 4 YR. DELIBERATE, KNOWINGLY “HOAXED” IMPEACHMENT PROCESS PERPETRATED AGAINST A PRESIDENT WORKING HARD FOR THE NATION…..IF ANY WERE ACTUALLY LISTENING TO TRUTH, WATCHING, COMPUTING….
Thank you Carole! Very insightful individual! Kudos to you! Cheers! Doug
You are so right on Carole..
Why would the sheriff be in charge for a FIRE emergency anyway? The experts in THAT field would be in the fire dept or Forestry Service fire jumpers. Sheriff’s office should have been secondary to them.
I suppose the Sheriff’s Office would be invoked with road closings, area evacuations, looter deterrence, communications, and other logistics for the survival of the citizens. The Fire Department and Forestry Service would fight the fires and determine the path of the burn to inform the Sheriff’s Office who to evacuate next.
I would no more be the one to go out and try to take the guns from any citizen, I would fine another job, Like going up to a Hells Angle club house and tell them the Gov,t sent me over here to take your guns, now give all of them to me and sign this paper.How long do you think I would stay alive. Or they would give me a bunch of kids cap pistols and bb guns.
I can’t stand the current LA County Sheriff. The story has an error. He did not take office until a month after the fire.
I’m in shock!!! L.A. did something right????
These treasonous hypocrite libs(lying sack of Schiff) don’t know the meaning of the truth! They are at it again and just as mentally deranged as the rest of the Globalists NAZI Muslim Commie Liberal Demoncrats! Deep State, Pelosi, Waters, Schumer, Hollywood, Academia, MSM Fox and the rest of Fake News, Swamp News and you know the rest!! Expose, Boycott, Sue, prosecute and bring to justice all these lying Fake News deep state treasonous Godless NAZI commie liberal demoncrats and RINOs (Mutt Romney, Susan Collins, Lindsey Grahams ,Murkowski, Justice Roberts, Bolton and you know the rest of the traitors) post-haste,Patriots! Drain the rat infested swamp President Trump!
Mini Mike Bloomberg, a failed Presidential candidate because his RACIST views became public, is the biggest threat to our 2nd Amendment rights in America. This POS makes BILLIONS in China and has his ‘news organization’ censor negative news about the Chinese communists (who have murdered more of their own people than any government in the history of humanity)….Bloomberg has armed secuity up the ying yang but fears the average American being able to protect themselves…..Bloomberg needs to be INDICTED for TREASON for collusion with the communist Chinese….
