Petition to the United States Congress and President of the United States

The Issue

Petition to the United States Congress and President of the United States: Invoke the People's Right to Redress Grievances Under the First Amendment – Demand the Permanent Removal of California Governor Gavin Newsom from Office as a Traitor to the United States, Trial for Failure to Uphold His Oath, and Federal Intervention to Restore Order and Justice in California

To: The Honorable Members of the United States Congress, President Donald J. Trump, and the American People

Whereas, the First Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees "the right of the people... to petition the Government for a redress of grievances," affirming the foundational principle that We the People hold ultimate sovereignty over our elected officials and may demand accountability when they betray their oath to protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic;

Whereas, Article VI of the United States Constitution mandates that all executive officers, including state governors, "shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution," and any willful violation thereof constitutes a profound betrayal of public trust, rendering such officials unfit for service and subject to removal under principles of federal oversight and the Supremacy Clause (Article VI, Clause 2), which ensures federal law prevails over state actions that undermine national security and unity;

Whereas, 18 U.S.C. § 2381 defines treason as "levying war against [the United States], or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort," punishable by death or imprisonment, and extends to actions that endanger American sovereignty through foreign entanglements or domestic chaos; and 5 U.S.C. § 7311 prohibits federal and state officials from advocating the overthrow of the government or engaging in conduct incompatible with their oath, providing grounds for disqualification from future office;

Whereas, this petition invokes these sacred constitutional protections not as a call for state impeachment – which has been rendered ineffective by partisan gridlock – but as a unified cry from Americans across all 50 states for federal intervention under Article IV, Section 4 (the Guarantee Clause), which obligates the United States to "guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government" and protect against "domestic Violence." We urge Congress to pass a joint resolution directing the Department of Justice to investigate, indict, and facilitate the removal of Governor Gavin Newsom, barring him permanently from public office, and to deploy federal resources to quell unrest in California;

We, the Undersigned Citizens of the United States, from every political persuasion – conservatives seeking law and order, liberals demanding equity without betrayal, independents tired of elite failures, and all patriots who cherish the America of our youth – hereby petition for the immediate removal of Governor Gavin Newsom from office. His actions constitute treasonous aid to foreign adversaries, a dereliction of his oath to protect Californians, and complicity in the fomenting of political violence that has scarred our nation. This is not partisanship; it is patriotism – a clarion call to Make America Great Again for the resilient generation of the 1990s, who grew up on dreams of unity post-Cold War, and for the next generation, who deserve a future free from the shadows of betrayal and chaos. By honoring this redress, we reclaim the promise of the Founders: a government of, by, and for the people, where no one is above accountability.

The Betrayal in the Ashes: Newsom's Handling of the Palisades Fire and Treasonous Land Giveaway to China

The Palisades Fire, ignited on January 7, 2025, in the Santa Monica Mountains, ravaged 23,448 acres, claimed 12 lives, and obliterated 6,837 structures across Pacific Palisades, Topanga, and Malibu – the most destructive blaze in Los Angeles history. Fueled by record drought and 80 mph Santa Ana winds, it displaced thousands of families, many of whom lost lifelong homes in this affluent yet vulnerable coastal enclave. Governor Newsom toured the devastation on day one, publicly vowing swift aid: "We owe it to [displaced families] to help," he stated on July 8, 2025, while announcing $101 million for rebuilding.

Yet, facts reveal a sinister pivot: Newsom's administration has funneled this funding into multifamily low-income housing projects prioritized for "geographic proximity to the fire perimeters," using county-wide income thresholds that ignore Palisades' median $3 million home values – effectively rezoning scorched luxury lots for subsidized developments that locals decry as "unfair" and character-altering. President Trump himself condemned this on September 16, 2025, via Truth Social: "Gavin Newscum's plan to build Low Income Housing (at the Super Luxury Pacific Palisades Fire Site) is what caused the destruction... How unfair is that to the people that have suffered so much!" Newsom's office denied targeting Palisades specifically, but the funding's scoring preferences for "occupancy for wildfire victims" and rapid construction (within 180 days) mask a broader agenda: state acquisition of fire-ravaged lots via bills like SB 549, passed by the Senate on July 15, 2025, enabling Los Angeles to buy properties for "equitable" redevelopment – displacing original owners while enriching developers.

Worse, amid this displacement, Chinese nationals have snapped up 5-6 scorched lots at a time, transforming neighborhoods with Chinese signage and contractors – a direct result of Newsom's refusal to block foreign ownership. On May 2, 2025, Newsom told Nikkei Asia: "California remains open to Chinese trade," even as Trump's 145% tariffs loomed, prioritizing Beijing ties over American security. This echoes his 2023 China trip, signing MOUs with CCP officials, and June 2025 attendance at a Beijing summit with Hong Kong's finance chief – actions critics label as "building deeper ties with CCP actors" at the expense of U.S. sovereignty. By selling fire-scarred American soil to a foreign adversary amid reconstruction, Newsom aids China's influence network in California, violating his oath and committing treason under 18 U.S.C. § 2381 – he must be removed and tried.

A Pattern of Oath-Breaking: Public Statements Exposing Newsom's Unfitness for Office

Newsom's own words betray his contempt for his constitutional duties. Upon taking office in 2019, he swore to "support and defend the Constitution," yet his record is one of fraud and failure: Overstating wildfire mitigation by 690% (claiming 90,000 treated acres when only 11,399 were), per a June 2021 CapRadio probe, endangering lives in blazes like Palisades. He defied federal border enforcement, declaring California a "sanctuary state" in 2017, aiding "foreign invaders" and criminals, as one 2019 petition charged – a direct assault on Article IV's faithful execution of laws.

In 2025, amid Trump's tariffs, Newsom directed "strategic relationships with international trading partners" like China on April 4, urging exemptions for California goods – "putting all options on the table" against federal policy, per his July 16 statement on high-speed rail defunding. On education, he touts "nation-leading investments," yet only 13% of Bakersfield students meet math standards and enrollment dipped below 6 million – prioritizing "toxic curriculum" over basics, as the Transparency Foundation documented in 2024. His COVID mismanagement prolonged school closures longer than any state, drawing Hoover Institution critique: "Was it morally right... to keep children out?" – a failure echoing 35% of Californians in poverty and 17% affording median homes.

These statements – from false claims to foreign favoritism – prove Newsom unfit, warranting permanent bar under 5 U.S.C. § 7311. He shall never hold office again.

The Flames of Chaos: LA Riots and the Urgent Need for Federal Intervention

The June 2025 Los Angeles riots, erupting June 6 after ICE raids arrested 45 immigrants, devolved into arson, looting, and assaults – 561 arrests, 12 officers injured, federal buildings vandalized with "ICE out of LA" graffiti. Protests spread nationwide, blocking highways and burning flags, as H.Res. 516 condemned on June 27: "Local and State leadership failed... despite LAPD declaring violence had spiraled out of control." Newsom asserted "local law enforcement didn’t need any help," rejecting federal aid even as Trump deployed 4,000 National Guard and 700 Marines – a deployment California sued over on June 9, escalating chaos via Newsom's June 10 lawsuit against the "illegal takeover."

This defiance violates Article IV, Section 4, inviting "domestic Violence" by undermining federal protection. Californians and Americans nationwide – 39% supporting protests but 40% opposing per polls – demand federal intervention: Deploy resources to restore order, investigate state failures, and remove Newsom to prevent further bloodshed. Polls show widespread frustration: 70% of Californians cite homelessness, crime, and housing as crises under Newsom, per petitions with thousands of signatures. From red states decrying sanctuary policies to blue voters exhausted by inequality, all agree: Federal action now to guarantee republican government.

Incitement to Assassination: Federal Probe into Maxine Waters, Rhetoric-Fueled Violence, and the Martyrdom of Charlie Kirk

Rhetoric from elected officials has poisoned our discourse since George Floyd's 2020 murder and COVID lockdowns, inciting riots and culminating in the September 10, 2025, assassination of Charlie Kirk – a patriot gunned down on Utah Valley University stage, shot in the neck before 3,000 amid his "American Comeback Tour." Suspect Tyler Robinson, 22, left a note: "I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I’m going to take it," texting his intent days prior; DNA links him to the rooftop perch. This "political assassination," per Gov. Spencer Cox, follows a wave: June 2025 Minnesota legislator killings, May Israeli embassy murders, April Shapiro arson.

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) bears responsibility: In April 2021, amid Floyd's trial, she urged Brooklyn Center protesters: "If nothing... happens, then we know... we’ve got to not only stay in the street, but we’ve got to fight for justice... get more confrontational." Judge Cahill called it "abhorrent," risking appeal; Republicans sought censure for "inciting violence." During 1992 LA riots, she defended unrest: "If you call it a riot, it sounds like... crazy people... It was an uprising." In Trump's era, she taunted: "Create a crowd... push back" on officials; June 2025 LA footage shows her shouting at agents: "You better shoot straight!" Pelosi defended as "civil rights confrontation," but victims like a 2021 shooting survivor blamed her words.

Similar rhetoric from officials – e.g., calls for "disruption" during COVID protests – fueled 250+ threats in 2025's first half, per Princeton's Bridging Divides. This led to Kirk's martyrdom: A Trump ally preaching "patriotism, faith," his death drew 6.9 million viewers, vigils nationwide, and Erika Kirk's vow: "I promise I will never let your legacy die." We demand a DOJ probe into Waters under 18 U.S.C. § 373 (solicitation to commit violence) and accomplices, censoring hate to heal divides.

Honoring Charlie Kirk's Legacy: A Unified Path to National Renewal

This petition honors Charlie Kirk by channeling his fight for "American Comeback" into action: Removing Newsom ends the cycle of betrayal, probes rhetoric to prevent assassinations, and federal intervention restores California's promise. For 1990s kids who saw walls fall and tech rise, this is redemption – no more elite games. For Gen Z, it's inheritance: Safe streets, secure borders, accountable leaders.

We call on all 50 states to endorse via resolutions, invoking Article V's spirit for unity. Journalists – from Fox to MSNBC, independents to mainstream – this is your story: The people's First Amendment thunder, demanding justice. Share it; amplify it. Sign now – for Kirk, for California, for America.
