Here are the pertinent quotes of Fullerton City Council member Bruce Whitaker during the discussion on Agenda Item No. 3 entitled “Consideration Of Support For The Department Of Justice Lawsuit Against The State Of California Regarding Sanctuary City Laws”.
“Since immigration is predominately and really entirely a federal jurisdiction, it leads me to lean in that direction, to lean in the direction of at least to preserving the federal government’s right to enforce immigration law.”
Whitaker continues: “But as far as being pressed into having to make a call on this, my lean is too support the federal attempts to make California as a border state comply with at least the minimum requirements of immigration law.”
Whitaker goes on to state: “There is more than a little bit of partisanship at play here and there is more than a little bit of political one-upmanship and the tactics of labeling and to shout down people from the other side of the situation. I will not be cowered by those tactics.”
Bruce Whitaker wrapping himself in the American flag
With three council members just prior to the vote indicating support in varying degrees for the Agenda Item (Whitaker, Sebourn and Fitzgerald), the vote to approve the Agenda Item incredibly never happened. Instead Council member Jesus Silva made an alternative motion seconded by Mayor Doug Chaffee to Receive and File, which means to file the agenda item away without taking any action on it.
open borders Silva
The Final Vote to Receive and File was as follows:
Doug Chaffee, Jesus Silva and Greg Sebourn: YES
Jennifer Fitzgerald: NO
Bruce Whitaker: ABSTAINING
Political fraud Whitaker shoveling more of the ….
The vote to Receive and File had indeed Bruce Whitaker cowering with an Abstention Vote.
Here are the pertinent statements from Fullerton Council member Greg Sebourn during the discussion on Agenda Item No. 3.
Seaborn
He started by providing the very recent results of a UC Berkley poll that indicated that 74% of all respondents agreed that local authorities should not be able to ignore any request to detain any person who is in this country illegally. The poll found that 82% of Republicans, 73% of Democrats and 71% of Independents opposed California’s Sanctuary State Laws.
He then went on to state that he was in favor of the City of Fullerton writing a letter in support of the repeal of SB54, AB 450 and AB103. These are all laws that foster Sanctuary State policies.
But two minutes after he expressed this support he caved like a demolished building by casting the deciding vote for an alternative motion to Receive and File the Agenda item. This effectively approved doing absolutely nothing to support his just disclosed opposition to SB54, AB450 and AB103. With a backbone like that, I do not know how Sebourn can walk on his own.
Greg Sebourn is a political fraud
Both Bruce Whitaker and Greg Sebourn were total sellouts and proved beyond any shadow of a doubt not to be men of their word. They proved that whatever comes out of their mouths should never be taken seriously. They in fact proved themselves to be worthless, spineless, and totally self-serving politicians who betrayed their own positions in the blink of an eye.
Please remember this historic betrayal by Republican Bruce Whitaker, a self-proclaimed Constitutional Conservative and Republican Greg Sebourn.
Whitaker “Give me your tired and your ………”
How could anyone ever trust them with their votes again? I for one will never support them again.
Bruce Whitaker is the untimate betrayer of the taxpayers
When a politicians’ word literally means absolutely nothing, trust has been forever broken between the people they serve and themselves.
Bruce Whitaker is a political fraud
Does anyone in his or her right mind, still believe that Bruce Whitaker is the right person to serve us in Sacramento from the 29thSenate District?
Bushala puppet and plant, phony empty suit career politician Bruce Whitaker is now officially a coward
Does anyone in his or her right mind still believe that Greg Sebourn is the right person to continue to be on the Fullerton City Council?
Bushala puppet and plant, phony empty suit politician Greg Sebourn is now officially a coward
For this and many more reasons, Bruce Whitaker’s political career and Greg Sebourn’s political career both deserve to be ended as soon as possible. That means that you do not vote for Bruce Whitaker for California State Senate for the 29th Senate District and you do not vote to reelect Greg Sebourn to the Fullerton City Council.
Bruce Whitaker is all about protecting illegal aliens
In conclusion, they have both proved that whatever comes out of their mouths can never be counted on by the Fullerton public. They deserve are scorn and our pity but not our precious votes.

Well his shameful actions on the Fullerton City Council are finally coming home to roost.
No show Bruce Whitaker lost his bid to get endorsed by the CRA last Saturday. Not only did he not get endorsed but a complete political newcomer, George Shen (who did sho up for our endorsement meeting) got endorsed by the CRA on the first ballot. This requires at least a two-thirds majority.
No show Whitaker could not face the good Republican members of the CRA and the few questions we would have posed to him. Bruce Whitaker is such a coward and such an embarrassment who could not stand before a few dozen fellow Republicans to fight for our endorsement. Yet he claims he will fight corruption in Sacramento. History is a could prognosticator of future behavior and Bruce Whitaker ignored the malfeasance and possible corruption I brought to him very well documented about the Fullerton Golf Course. He has done nothing to fight corruption in Fullerton and he would do nothing in Sacramento if the good people of Fullerton were so foolish to elect him to our State Senate seat.
Bruce would withdraw from the race if he still had an ounce of integrity and decency within him in my opinion. Yet I suspect he will not take that action. Therefore, we need to embarrass him at the polls just like he has embarrassed the good people of Fullerton for almost 8 long years of all talk and No Action!!
