Is that Young Kim with Greg Bovino?

It sure is.

I saw something striking today, and I need to share.

Young Kim, the CA-40 incumbent congresswoman now desperately trying to fight off all challengers, sent out a mailing.

This mailing …

And if you’re thinking, “It seems like the once-somewhat-moderate Republican is turning hard-core MAGA,” you wouldn’t be incorrect. See, with the whole Prop 50 redistricting thing, Kim is now fighting to protect her turf not only from Democrats, but also from a fellow Trump-loving conservative named Ken Calvert, whose 41st Congressional District was turned to apple sauce and tarter.

As a result, Kim has to try and peddle herself as Ms. MAGA. So she’s talking tougher, walking tougher and telling anyone who will listen that Donald Trump is her ride-or-die bro-bro.

But there’s a problem.

A big problem.

A big, big problem.

While the new CA-40 is significantly more Republican, it also happens to be nearly 20 percent Latino. And although a good number of California Latinos supported Trump over Kamala in 2024, recent polling all shows a rapidly rising number of folks (within the Latino demographic) are fed up, disgusted, frustrated, terrified over all things ICE. The masked agents. The grabbing of innocents. Or, put differently: It’s one thing to say you’ll go after the criminals. It’s another thing to kidnap the nanny.

Yet here’s Kim, actually including a photograph of her with Bull Connor, the George Wallace of our times …

If I’m Lisa Ramirez, who I consider to be the Democrat’s best CA-40 possibility, I use this image … every … single … day. I feature it, highlight it, staple it to Young Kim’s shirt and remind people of the visual all the damn time.

But maybe that’s just me.
