Sheriff Chad Bianco, Johnny Chad Bianco, is campaigning for Presidential candidate Donald Trump in uniform, in what appears to be a Department vehicle and what appears to be during department time. Here is video of his campaigning. He says he's voting for Trump and wants everyone else to vote for him too because Trump's a convicted felon. "I think it's time we put a felon in the White House. Trump 2024, baby." Sheriff Chad Bianco also speaks about local politicians in a derogatory manner. Bianco allegedly wants to run for Governor and thinks this is how you do it. His second wife Denise Jo Williams Bianco seems to support this.

It's a violation of Riverside County Code of Ethics and California Government Code to campaign for a specific candidate while in uniform, on Department property or during work hours. This is a violation of the Riverside Police Department manual here. This is also one reason Los Angeles Sheriff Alex Villanueva had problems. I reported him then he removed his uniform when he campaigned. He still ended up with a ton of problems then thankfully lost the election.

917.3 EMPLOYEE RESPONSIBILITY

(a) Employees shall not engage in improper political activity as described in state law.

Applicable Government Code sections are:

4. 3206 G.C - An employee shall not participate in political activities while in

uniform.CA Govt Code § 3206 (2023)

Standards of Conduct pg 138 316.5.8 Performance

(g) Improper political activity including:

1. Unauthorized attendance while on-duty at official legislative or political sessions.

2. Solicitations, speeches or distribution of campaign literature for or against any

political candidate or position while on-duty or, on department property except

as expressly authorized by County policy, the memorandum of understanding,

or the Chief of Investigators.

(h) Engaging in political activities during assigned working hours except as expressly

authorized by County policy, the memorandum of understanding, or the Chief of

Investigators.

(i) Any act on- or off-duty that brings discredit to this department.

This is what Chad said in the video per Daily Mail.

'I think I am going to change teams,' Bianco said.

'I think they're on to something, but I don't think they're doing enough,' he added of state leaders.

'Trump 2024, baby, let's save this country and make America great again.'

The statement came after the officer explained what he framed as a 'love affair' between state leaders and criminals.

This, he said, is based on a 'belief that criminals are not responsible for their own actions' after the crime rate in Riverside County reached 39.04 per 1,000 residents last year - one of the highest in the country.

'They're a victim of society,' Bianco continued, before citing a supposed belief sported by state leaders that 'criminals are not responsible for their own actions.

'It's society's fault,' he went on, speaking sarcastically. 'It's businesses' fault. It's cops' fault. It might be my fault.'

He went on to note how some state leaders have criticized their respective judicial systems and law enforcement for being 'systemically racist' - a claim that has seen some repeat offenders released to combat supposed 'bias.'

They 'let them out,' the sheriff continued, lamenting how leaders in California and Washington give criminals 'housing... money... ' and even 'drugs and alcohol now.'

Bianco said he was 'tired' of such treatment, conceding that his colleagues in the Golden State have 'been wrong' to implement such guidance.

Bianco, a well-known conservative who governs the city between LA and Palm Springs, said he liked some things state leaders doing, but expressed disapproval on certain decisions. Just before, he explained what he framed as a 'love affair' between state leaders and criminals

This, he said, is based on a 'belief that criminals are not responsible for their own actions' after he crime rate in Riverside County reached 39.04 per 1,000 residents last year - one of the highest in the country

The grizzled vet went on to claim that he has done all in his power over the past three decades to 'keep our community safe by arresting criminals and putting them in jail,' but leaders at the state level have stood in his way.

He lamented how these leaders and the once great state California have become somewhat pro-criminal in recent years, due to laws that have allowed violent offenders, by and large, to exploit the legal justice system.

'For the last five years I've been very critical about our governor for slashing our budgets from corrections, for letting prisoners out early, for closing our prisons,' he said, four years after taking a knee in solidarity with Riverside protestors following the murder of George Floyd.

'I've been critical of our state legislature for passing laws to make it harder to put people in prison. I've been critical for their changing laws that let prisoners out early. And I've been critical of our attorney general for seemingly not caring about crime.

'I think it's time we put a felon in the White House,' the officer went on to assert."

Here is Chad promoting specific candidates on what appears to be his Sheriff page on Facebook. He's in uniform.

Let the Riverside Board of Supervisors and the Riverside District Attorney know you don't approve of local county employees campaigning in uniform. Guess Bianco thinks being a Trumper will help him in the next elections. It sure didn't help Sheriff Villanueva.

Trans Swimmers Competing Against Women Is Unfair to Women by Mary Cummins ex Competitive Swimmer

lia thomas, mary cummins, trans, men, women, swimming,swimmer, record, team, compete, fair, hormones, penn state, olympics

UPDATE: 06/14/2024 "The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has dismissed a challenge from transgender swimmer Lia Thomas, who had asked the Swiss-based court to reject a policy that would prevent her from competing in women's races at elite competitions.

In its ruling, which was published Wednesday, the panel of arbitrators determined that Thomas did not have standing to challenge the policy created by swimming's international federation, World Aquatics. The CAS panel found that "for the time being" she is not eligible to compete in elite competitions through World Aquatics or USA Swimming, so the policy does not apply to her.

"She is currently only entitled to compete in USA Swimming events that do not qualify as 'Elite Events,'" according to the arbitral award."

https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/olympics/2024/06/12/transgender-swimmer-lia-thomas-loses-legal-challenge/74071662007/

06/14/2024 Biden lost a Title IX challenge. Court determined the law was made to protect biological women. I also read that since trans have been allowed to compete with women they have taken over 1,000 awards from women swimmers. Seems they already made another category for trans swimmers but no trans swimmers want to compete in it. They only want to compete against women swimmers and not other trans swimmers. I agree they should be allowed to swim and compete but trans swimmers should not be able to take records and awards from women. It's just not fair to women. Maybe they can compete with women but their times and place should be judged against the mens times and not womens.

https://www.ketk.com/news/politics/ap-judge-blocks-bidens-title-ix-rule-in-four-states-dealing-a-blow-to-protections-for-lgbtq-students/

ORIGINAL: I was a top ten swimmer in the United States. I started with Beverly Hills YMCA, Culver City Roadrunners, Beverly Hills Catholic School (now Good Shepherd) and was even on the USC women's swim team for a short time in 1982. The YMCA and Roadrunners had coed practice. USC had separate men's and women's workout sessions because of the large number of athletes.

During swim practice athletes of similar ability and speed work out in the same lane for practical reasons. We swim a few seconds behind each other at around the same pace with the fastest leading. For this reason I worked out with women in my same age group. I worked out with Olympians Tiffany Cohen and Dara Torres though Torres was younger than me.

The men's lanes were the first four on the left and women were on the right. The fastest swimmer was on the left. The fastest swimmers were always the older, bigger men. The slowest were always younger, smaller women.

It's a fact of life that most biological men are bigger, stronger and faster swimmers than women of the same age. Adult men swim 12% faster than women in shorter distances such as 50 meters and 8% faster in longer distances such as 800 meters (based on world records). Clearly women are not competitive against men in swimming. This is why we have different events for men and women which are further divided by age group. The purpose is to be fair to the athletes. All athletes have access to the sport of swimming.

12 year olds swim faster than seven year olds. It wouldn't be fair for a 12 year old to race a seven year old. The seven year old doesn't stand a chance as there is no level playing field. No 12 year old would want to race a seven year old because it'd be an empty embarrassing win. Imagine a big 12 year old standing next to a little seven year old on the winner's platform. The trophy would be like taking candy from a baby.

Even if a man takes hormones to reduce his testosterone, he will still be bigger and stronger than a woman if he went through puberty as a man. The only time when a man may be more equal to a woman in sports is if they take hormones before going through puberty. The hormone level is not the only determinate of fairness. So is size, muscle makeup and body type.

Lia Thomas is a trans swimmer. Thomas ranked 65th at UPenn in 2022 when she swam on the men's team against men in the 500 yd freestyle. She ranked 1st when she swam as a woman against women. Clearly, this is not a fair or level playing field in a competitive setting. It's like the 12 year old swimming against a seven year old.

"Women's sports advocate Riley Gaines, an All-American swimmer who competed for the University of Kentucky, says that she and her teammates were forced to share a locker room with Thomas and were exposed to male genitalia." I feel this is wrong. People changing deserve privacy. Women shouldn't be forced to see male genitalia when they are changing in the women's locker room. Men are not allowed in the women's locker room for this reason and others. Women would be forced to change in a bathroom stall in order to get privacy. An accommodation should be made for Lia.

I was the only woman on the men's water polo team at Beverly Hills High School. Only the men's locker room was open during early morning workout before school. I didn't barge into the men's locker room to change with the boys. They would have complained. I wore my suit under my clothes before I rode my bicycle to school. After workout I changed under a towel in the swim gym. I wouldn't want to make the boys or me uncomfortable.

Title IX is a Federal Civil Rights law amendment made in 1972 which gives all equal access and opportunity in sports in schools which receive federal funds. "No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance." This is why I was allowed to be on the men's water polo team. They didn't have a women's team. Excluding trans people from sports would be a violation of Title IX and just plain wrong. Everyone should be able to participate no matter what. Having separate mens and womens competitive events is not nor has it ever been a violation of this law. The purpose is fairness. This is why it would be fair to not allow trans men to compete for records and awards against women.

I don't have a problem with trans swimmers on the women's team. Let them work out, compete and have fun with the team. Just don't let them set official records or receive official medals for placing. It's not fair to women. It especially would not be fair if a biological woman is trying to get a swimming scholarship to college and there are only so many spots. A woman would lose an opportunity to compete or receive a scholarship. A woman could also lose out holding official records. We need to be fairer to women in sports while still including everyone.

United With Israel Rally, March at USC May 8, 2024 Los Angeles, California by Mary Cummins

israel, mary cummins, usc, united with israel, standwithus, jewish, jews, los angeles, california, march, may 8 2024, sean feucht, pursuit church, christian, let us worship, hold the line

United for Israel pro Israel, Jewish people rally and march at USC in Los Angeles, California May 8, 2024. Christian worship artist Sean Feucht, Pursuit Church, Let Us Worship, Hold the Line, StandWithUs, Concerned Women for America, Shanee Zamir, Mary Cummins were at the rally and march on Figueroa, Exposition and Jefferson around University of Southern California campus.

The national anthem on Israel and the US Star-spangled Banner were sung along with uplifting Christian and Jewish songs including I Exhalt Thee, Im Israel Chai, God of Israel... Everyone was waving Israel and US flags while singing and praying for peace and the return of the hostages.

There were two men with Palestine flags kept far away from the event by security. LAPD shut down the streets and escorted by the marchers east of Exposition, North on Figueroa and West on Jefferson to the USC campus gates. There was one crazy USC student in graduation robe grabbing her crotch telling us to "suck my dick! Fuck you! Hitler! Hamas!" There was one beat up white pickup truck with the two guys and the Palestine flag who drove by and gave us the finger. Hundreds more on the street honked their car horns, waves, supported the marchers.

The marchers were wearing various supportive tshirts and carried signs while chanting "bring them home, never again, im israel chai..." Videos on YouTube. Photos below.

Pro Palestine Protest at USC May 2, 2024 photos, videos by Mary Cummins

usc, mary cummins, alumni, los angeles, california, protest, cease fire, palestine, gaza, israel, jews, jewish, bringthemhome, hostages, usc protest, university of southern california

UPDATE: May 5, 2024 Early this morning after days of warnings, written notices and signs LAPD came in and removed the encampment. Protesters left peacefully. They're now cleaning the site. USC did everything right as opposed to UCLA. USC is also a private school and smaller so it was easier. There were also fewer protesters.

ORIGINAL: USC campus locked up tight May 2, 2024 around 4:00 pm. Only two entrances were open on Jefferson and Figueroa with security and ID check. Students, employees only or reservations. I'm alumni so I had a reservation and registered at the gate with my ID.

Tommy Trojan statue was cleaned of graffiti. So was the fountain. They were both gated with security guards and security car right in front. Lots of graduates taking photos in their full graduation gear.

The few protesters looked more like students today with just a couple of professional organizers. A guy got up once an hour and reads chants off his phone for protesters to repeat. They shouted the usual chants "from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free," ...

It was much tamer today. I wore my USC shirt with a huge blue star of David on the front. Just some curious glances with a few non protesters saying "she must be scared." #USC #marycummins #uscprotest #CeaseFireNow #Israel #jewish #LOSANGELES #california #bringthemhome #bringthemhomenow @mary_cummins @marycummins

Pro Palestine Protest at USC Was AntiSemitic, Pro Hamas. Photos, Videos by Mary Cummins

Hamas,Holocaust,usc,genocide,jewish,protest,palestine,police,cease fire,arrests,2024,mary cummins,jew, bringthemhome, bringthemhoomenow, israel

05/01/2024: The people arrested at these protests breaking the law are not students. They are anti-Jew anti-Israel agitators with criminal pasts. Look at the names, ages and mugshots of those arrested. They're not students.

https://nypost.com/2024/05/01/us-news/doctor-known-anti-israel-protester-among-the-282-arrested-at-columbia-city-college-of-ny/

The protests are being funded by groups getting money from Hamas. They're not even legal "charities."

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13363943/Pro-Palestine-group-Columbia-University-protests-funding-linked-Hamas.html

The protesters were trained by outside groups with their own agendas. The few students involved in the protests were manipulated and used for propaganda and political purposes. SJP Students for Justice in Palestine which was formed in 1993 is funded partially by Hamas. These entities want the US and world to think the Hamas Israel war is similar to the US Vietnam war. It's not. Back then students were in the right to speak out against that senseless war. In this situation terrorists Hamas broke a cease fire agreement, invaded Israel, murdered, raped, tortured 1,200 innocent civilians, kidnapped over 300 innocent civilians and bombed Israel. Hamas along with Palestinians, PLO, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad did these things. They continue to launch missiles at Israel and murder Jews in Israel.

04/29/2024: All gates at USC are still locked. Protesters who are not USC students still finding a way in. One of them graffiti'd Tommy Trojan statue. They may have to wrap it up like they do when USC plays UCLA. The protesters causing most of the problems are not USC students. I feel they are supported by some pro Hamas entities based on the fact they call Hamas "freedom fighters" and think October 7 was acceptable. They also don't talk or act like USC students. They don't know the campus and they definitely don't know the issues or history. I interacted with a few of them. I saw USC students telling them to get the hell out.

04/24/2024: I was at the pro Palestine protest at Alumni Park on USC campus April 24, 2024 from 12:30 pm to 1:45 pm. I was clearly there as an alumni to support Jewish people. From what I could tell the protesters were not USC students. They did not have USC ID cards which is why they were asked to leave. When they refused they were arrested for trespassing. USC is a private school on private land.

The USC students were mainly against the protesters. They gave them the finger and told them to go home, get the hell off campus. There was a ton of USC security and local LAPD. They taped off Vermont Ave from 27th to south of Jefferson around 36th street. I parked on Vermont and they had to lift the tape at two intersections to let me out. They also locked all the gates to the school campus. The main campus is about eight square blocks of private land. I had to walk way around to get to the main gate to get out. On my way out is when I saw the Palestine graffiti in green.

I spoke to two protesters. A young man maybe high school in Palestine headdress just came up and yelled "do you support the genocide." I said "I support the Jewish people and Israel's right to exist." He kept yelling "do you support the murder of women and children?" I said "do you support Hamas raping women and chopping the heads off babies." That was the end of that conversation.

A young woman came up and said she supports Jews but they are committing a genocide in Gaza. I told her the Holocaust was a genocide. Tell Hamas to free the hostages and Israel will cease fire. She said Israel has to cease fire first. I told her Hamas would then kill all the Jews and destroy Israel. Israel has the right to defend itself. Hamas has violated every cease fire including the one ended up October 7, 2023. That ended that conversation.

I spoke to some news crews, told them I was alumni and I support Jewish people and Israel's right to exist. I told them the protesters were clueless brainwashed kids.

For those that need basic Israel, Jewish facts, I wrote this short fact sheet.
https://marycumminsinvestigativereporter.blogspot.com/2023/12/false-claims-about-israel-jews-jewish.html

The protesters were chanting and marching in a circle in front of Doheny library. They chanted the following:

"From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free." (Israel exists from the Jordan river to the Mediterranean sea. They want all Jews murdered and Israel destroyed)

"Disclose, divest, we will not stop we will not rest. If we don't get it, shut it down." (They want USC to divest of any pro Israel entities. If not, they will shut the school down? Many of USC's buildings were built from Jewish donor funds, i.e. Mark's Hall, Tennis Stadium, Michelson Hall... USC won't turn them back on major donors)

"Hey, hey, ho, ho, the occupation has got to go."

"What do we want, Justice, when do we want it, now." (When they yelled "what do we want?" I yelled "free the hostages!" When they yelled "When do we want it?" I yelled "Free them now!" After I did that twice they changed chants.)

"While you're learning, Gaza's burning."

"Israel is a settler state." (Israel has existed for over 3,000 years. They are not settlers.)

"Free, free Palestine, USC you can't hide, ...from genocide." (USC is not committing genocide. Neither is Israel. Hamas, Palestine broke a cease fire and invaded Israel murdering, raping, torturing 1,200 people and kidnapping over 300. Israel has the right to defend itself. Hamas hides in hospitals, churches using Palestinians as human shields.)

"Tuition, not ammunition."
