Anaheim city council stripped a commissioner of his title after comments he made about the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) virus.
Council unanimously voted to remove Larry Larson’s commissioner status from the sister cities commission during an April 27 city council meeting.
“They’re going to destroy me and my reputation, kick me off sister cities—which you voted to put me on—because I said, ‘China virus,’” Larsen told council.
The issue began when the sister city commission, which works to develop Anaheim’s cultural and economic relationships with international cities, considered partnering with Pudong, China on Feb. 22.
Pudong is a district within Shanghai where the Shanghai Disney Resort is located. Anaheim and Pudong have a “friendly city” relationship, but are not full-fledged sister cities.
Larsen said he was shocked by the commission’s consideration with a Chinese city, given how the CCP had lied for weeks about having the virus before informing the World Health Organization.
“I am stunned that anybody in Anaheim would consider such a thing,” Larsen said.
During the Feb. 22 meeting, commissioner Dara Maleki said: “I don’t know who our bigger enemy is—foreign or the domestic. We’ve got a pandemic; we’ve got a serious virus.”
Said Larsen: “It’s called the China Virus. The City of Anaheim is in the tank, and we’re going to invite them into our house?”
Chair Taline Cole interjected: “Larry, I’m going to stop you there. This isn’t the place to have political conversations.”
Larsen fired back: “I’m blown away that this city has taken that invite from China. And now we’re going to smack happy with these people? I’m absolutely stunned.”

To find out who rules over you, simply find out who you’re not allowed to criticize.
Seems like some old French dude said something like that.
Falsely attributed to him.
That’s>> Truth sounds like hate to those who hate truth.
The truth is a terrible thing.
having politically sodomized federal and state officials, china is now going deeper and politically sodomizing local politicians. they all seem more than willing. i suppose we will witness war in our lifetime. hopefully the good guys will at least leave a mark...
The “one world” goal came with the mantra that the capitalistic West owes it to the Communist world to share with them everything we’d developed through ingenuity, investment and hard work. Those who plotted this brainwashing convinced governmental and academic administrators to welcome and teach invited delegations of Chinese Communists who came with translators, as they familiarized with cutting edge Western technology. The department I ran was tasked by our boss with doing this for a full week. The visitors paid close attention to every concept and technical detail. Many likely recall the scandalous news that highly classified technical information was given by a well-known Senator. Once armies of learners joined our academic departments and top labs and extracted the technologies, there was no more scandal.
Council must have China ties or Biden tramps.
