Mike Garcia, a retired U.S. Navy Fighter pilot running in California’s 25th congressional district special election upcoming on Tuesday, is aiming to try to launch what he calls “a red shockwave” across the country by retaking the seat for Republicans.

The district, which had been Republican for many years, fell to the Democrats in the 2018 midterm elections when now former Rep. Katie Hill (D-CA) won it as part of the “blue wave” on election night. Hill has since resigned after being caught in a scandal encompassing lewd relationships with staff members, forcing this special election on Tuesday.

Garcia, the GOP nominee, appeared on Breitbart News Saturday on SiriusXM 125 the Patriot Channel to discuss his background and the campaign—laying out the national implications for the race next week. Garcia flew over 30 combat missions in Operation Iraqi Freedom, where he would take off from an aircraft carrier to provide air support to ground troops hunting for Saddam Hussein.

“From our perspective, we had the easy job—we’d take off from the aircraft carrier and be in the air anywhere from four to eight hours and fly close air support for the Marines and the Army guys on the ground,” Garcia said. “Those are the guys that have the tough job. At the time, we were still looking for Saddam Hussein, so the mission was to continue to gain ground in Iraq while we were looking for Hussein. So, being there to support the troops on the ground and being there to be able to be sure they could do their jobs and get home safely—and sometimes we’d use kinetics and weapons to do the job, sometimes it was just the jet noise and hearing the sound of freedom above them to keep the enemy hunkered down long enough so they could move up and progress—so, 30 missions. Landing on an aircraft carrier at night is never relaxing. It’s never something you take for granted, and it’s one of the most challenging things you’ll ever do, but absolutely the thrill of a lifetime and truly an honor to be able to do that and represent America around the world with that show of force and that kind of strength, so I really appreciated the opportunity. It was everything that I had dreamed it would be as a career.”

US House candidate, CA-25

I am running to serve again; to protect what I fought for as a Navy fighter pilot. With CA's problems of high taxes and homelessness threatening to spread across the nation, we need a fighter in Congress, not a career politician.

I am ready to answer the CALL once again.

So in California, the Democrats, who fought like crazy to get all mail in only ballots, and succeeded, have just opened a voting booth in the most Democrat area in the State. They are trying to steal another election. It’s all rigged out there. These votes must not count. SCAM!

Governor @GavinNewsom  of California won’t let restaurants, beaches and stores open, but he installs a voting booth system in a highly Democrat area (supposed to be mail in ballots only) because our great candidate, @MikeGarcia2020, is winning by a lot. CA25  Rigged Election!

More About the Person Who Single-Handedly Decided to Shake Up California's 25th Congressional Special Election
Townhall, May 9, 2020

Democrats are clearly worried about losing seats, especially in the House of Representatives, after Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) allowed an impeachment witch hunt to take place. Democrats have to work to keep every seat, and right now their focus is on California's 25th Congressional District, the seat that's been vacant since last fall when Rep. Katie Hill resigned after the House Ethics Committee launched an investigation into her personal life. She was allegedly having an affair with her Legislative Director, Graham Kelly, and a throuple relationship with a female campaign staffer.

In a last-minute decision, the Los Angeles County Democratic Party asked the registrar to add an additional polling location in the city of Lancaster, citing concerns about the need to "ensur[e] that every voter has the opportunity to exercise their right to vote, change their voter registration and more, especially in communities of color."

Los Angeles County Recorder, Dean Logan, agreed with the decision and established an additional polling location in Lancaster. Looking deeper into his Twitter history, it's not all that surprising. After all, Logan is a Democrat himself – and someone who supports Joe Biden. Of course, he would do everything in his power to advance his party's cause.

Couldn’t Garcia just strafe the polling location?

Well, it’s just a thought.  happy77
