… who attacked the US Capitol on January 6 is what inspired me to challenge Ken Calvert in this race. As we all know, Calvert voted to overturn the presidential election. He [Calvert] voted against the January 6 commission. He called for charges against the insurrectionists to be dropped. But as Fazia just mentioned tonight, we got some more disturbing news, and that is that state Senator Melissa Melendez, another far right Trump Republican, pulled papers to enter the June 7 primary.
