Planning Commissioner Steven Frasher said he is seeking election to the Redlands City Council because “Redlands is a dynamic city balancing its historic community character with a changing economy, compounded by the current public health closures and resulting economic impacts, and social justice concerns that demand immediate attention. I believe a people-centered, steady but determined problem-solving approach is what’s needed to guide the city through this turbulent emergency period. I think we get through this with cool heads, imagination, a sense of shared purpose and long-term vision.”
He is qualified to hold the position of city councilman, Frasher said, by his accumulated knowledge as both a resident and appointed city decision-maker, along with his viewpoint. “Experience and perspective are the biggest assets, I think,” he said. “Locally, I’ve been a member of the Redlands Planning Commission, guiding land-use decisions that shape the city, since 2012. A previous mayor appointed me to a Blue Ribbon Committee exploring budget priorities to get the city through the last economic crisis. Many of our biggest issues are not new to me. In my professional work, I’ve been a senior staff member to mayors and a chief of police in Riverside, a school superintendent in Glendale, and for a major infrastructure agency in Los Angeles County. These experiences working closely with and for residents in other jurisdictions gives me unique perspectives on best practices and how agencies interact to maximize effectiveness.”
Frasher is one of four candidates vying for the council position representing the city’s Fourth District. The top vote-getter among himself, Ivan Ramirez, Lane Schneider and Jenna Guzman-Lowery in November will take up the Fourth District position on the council in December, in essence replacing Councilwoman Toni Momberger, who in 2017 was appointed to replace late Councilwoman/Mayor Pat Gilbreath and then won a special at-large election held in 2018. Frasher said he was reluctant to contrast himself positively or negatively with Ramirez, Schneider or Guzman-Lowery.
“Respectfully, I believe the other contenders can and should make their own cases,” he said. “I don’t claim to be the most active or involved person in a town with lots of community pride, service and volunteerism, but I believe I have the combination of experience and the commitment to public service, resilience and accountability that is relevant, right now.”
In addressing what he considered to be the major issues facing the city, Frasher said, “Redlands is proud of its heritage but we need to go beyond the friendly façade. Everything is impacted right now by the current health/economic emergency. A city is all about people. We need to support our local businesses, with all appropriate care during COVID-19, but with the long-term goal of creating opportunities, jobs and an attractive community that local people and visitors want to support. Make no mistake, COVID-19 is deadly serious. I want to offer all support to our businesses that take the dangers and guidelines seriously. But, we’ll get through the COVID-19 emergency. Within the budget constraints we have to expand police/community connectivity and accountability so Redlands can be an example of justly pursuing justice and public safety. Affordable housing is needed; building the same types of tract neighborhoods doesn’t provide the diversity of housing options that grow a family-friendly community for all, not just the well-established. Homelessness needs a compassionate approach involving a lot of partners; complaints solve nothing. We still need to plan and build for a more sustainable future.”
Frasher said his formula for redressing those issues was “economic development” and to “keep drilling down on ‘shop local’ with innovative promotion of neighborhood economic zones and the historic downtown.”
In terms of jobs, Frasher said the city needs to “encourage diversity in new businesses and strategize how to maximize job recovery as businesses are allowed to fully reopen.” He said that maintaining the city’s municipal workforce is critical. “Public services are critically important to residents,” he said, stating the city should “work with labor groups to maintain as many jobs as possible until revenues recover.”
With regard to public safety, Frasher said the city should endeavor to “ensure the police and fire departments are properly trained and resourced for our public safety demands, within our budget, and are partnering for the best social justice outcomes.”
In order to redress homelessness, Frasher said the city should “work with the county, churches and nonprofits to learn from current experiences and connect as many as possible with services.”
To expand housing opportunities, Frasher called upon the city to “develop plans to diversify housing options and develop transit villages with broader public discussion.” He said city officials need to “allay fears” that many residents have about high density housing being located in multi-use districts near downtown within a walkable distance from boarding and disembarking stations for rail lines offering transportation westward.
The city needs to emphasize accountability, Frasher said, by “continuing and expanding outreach education steps, inviting residents to more fully interact with police, parks, water resources, to understand needs, responses, concerns.”
How the city will pay for those solutions, Frasher said, is “the question that will dominate every decision, at least for the next two years. Prudent fiscal management sounds like a trope, but it’s true. Cities need to live within their means and all local communities/local families have taken a tremendous hit from the COVID crisis and the necessary steps to try to effectively contain the virus, and that impact hit all cities, too. We can’t proceed as if nothing has happened. Redlands’ leaders managed pretty well and saved reserves for rainy days, but this is a deluge. Ambitious plans are the vision we have to keep our eyes on in terms of long-term planning as we inevitably manage painful cuts that I hope can be only temporary.”
Frasher said, “Redlands has a 1% sales tax measure that was placed on the ballot to meet visionary needs beyond daily maintenance, such as a new safety hall, any expansion of services, etc., before the current COVID-related budget emergency. Now, that measure will be a crucial bulwark against devastating cuts/destruction of what the city provides, if voters chose to adopt the increase at such a difficult time. That outcome will shape any decision elected officials can make for the coming years.”
In summarizing his experience relating to government, Frasher noted that in addition to his local service as a Redlands planning commissioner since 2012, he is currently employed as a public information officer involved in community relations, emergency communications response and media liaison for Los Angeles County Public Works, which also manages the Los Angeles County Flood Control District.
Frasher has lived in Redlands since 2001 and in District 4 since 2003, having moved to Redlands as an adult. He has a bachelor of arts degree in political science from the University of Washington.
He and his wife, Sharon, a kindergarten teacher, have two adult sons.
Frasher said, “The Redlands Bowl, the city’s historic outdoor theater, has a phrase from Proverbs inscribed above the stage: ‘Without vision a people perish.’ That can’t be an empty slogan that fulfills itself. Past generations built and preserved a vision of Redlands in their time. It’s our time to envision, build and preserve a sustainable and welcoming city, for today, especially guiding it through this extraordinary emergency and to have our community emerge whole on the other side of the recovery.”

Erick Lopez is competing against five others to represent Fontana’s residents in the city’s Third Electoral District on the city council in order “to give the power back to the people. As a 9-year resident of Fontana, I have grown up in this community and for too long I have witnessed our elected officials often ignoring the demands of the people they are supposed to serve in favor of corporate and self-interests. We deserve a loud, bold, and unapologetic voice in the chambers of City Hall that puts people first and that is not afraid to push for change. I intend to be that voice.”
It is his commonality from which he draws his greatest strength as a candidate, Lopez said.
“While I have studied government and have experience in positions of leadership, I think the most important qualification that I have is that I am an average Fontana resident,” he ventured. “Talking to community members, they have been very receptive to me as someone who is a product of the community. They are tired of voting for politicians and they are excited for me as a candidate who they know will be their advocate because I have experienced their struggles firsthand.”
Lopez’s reference to politicians harkens to Jesse Armendarez, the incumbent whom the top vote-getter among the six now running in Fontana’s Third District – Lopez, Lashunda Martin, Linda D. Richardson, Peter Garcia, Amy Malone and Dawn Dooley – will replace later this year. Armendarez has ambition for higher office. He has forsaken remaining on the council to run for county supervisor in the Fifth District, and has so far invested a substantial amount of the money he makes in his real estate business – a total now exceeding $91,076.83 – to propel his campaign. Lopez is intent on moving into the council slot Armendarez will be leaving in less than four months.
“I believe what distinguishes me from my opponents is that I am a progressive,” Lopez said. “If 2020 has taught us anything, it is that our social safety nets are fragile. Families are one paycheck away from poverty while wealth continues to accumulate at the very top. While these broader issues will have to be addressed at a national level, there is a lot of work that can be done locally. The need for bold progressive ideals on education, economic development, and public safety has never been more apparent. We cannot afford to continue with business as usual and to continue to push for the same policies that have already failed us.”
Lopez said, “I am running on a platform that emphasizes education, sustainable economic development, and on re-imagining the public safety model. Educational attainment is low in our city and to address that I am calling to invest in teachers’ salaries, college preparation and vocational training programs, science, technology, engineering and mathematics education, and educational technology. Another issue that hits close to home is economic development. With little council opposition, portions of our community have been overrun by warehouse developers that bring low-paying jobs with no benefits and dismal working conditions on top of significant environmental impacts. I am running to diversify our economic development and to attract good paying jobs, professional working spaces, green jobs, and science, technology and  engineering, industries that will bring Fontana into the future. Lastly, in the face of George Floyd’s death, our community has overwhelmingly called on our elected officials to reform policing in our city, and they have repeatedly ignored our demands. I am running to advocate for a re-imagined public safety model that prevents crime by investing in homeless shelters, mental health resources, affordable housing, job training, education, etc.”
Advancing science, technology, engineering and mathematics education and pushing for economic development, Lopez said, can be achieved through the use and prioritization of available funding.
“For those solutions that have a cost, I propose the city pay for them by reallocating funds from what already exists within the city’s budget,” he said.
Lopez, who attended A.B. Miller High School and attended UC Davis where he studied political science with an emphasis in public service, acknowledged, “This is my first time seeking a position in government.” He has lived in Fontana for nine years. Lopez is unmarried and has no children.
Formerly employed as a teaching assistant, Lopez was displaced as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic. Lopez is, nonetheless, taking advantage of his time off work to innovate new ways to connect to voters during an already unprecedented campaign season.

It’s blazing hot outside, but that doesn’t stop the fashionistas. Looks like the blazer is the street piece of the moment. And, it is fun to wear in many ways. You can wear it loosely with shorts, cool baggy pants mini/long skirts and dresses. The ideas are endless. The blazer is a great sun protector, too. Its light enough to wear and cover the heat from burning on your arms. Let’s not forget the classy chic look it adds to your wardrobe. The colors and patterns they come in are endless and you can find one available anywhere from thrift to Target. The blazer really pops up any outfit all the way from simple beach to out in the evening. We’re trying to have fun and still be fashioanble durng these times. Get blazing and enjoy your fashion.

“With the perfect blazer, anything is possible.” -Unknown

Sentinel 08-14-20

By Mark Gutglueck
It does not appear that San Bernardino County Chief Operating Officer Leonard Hernandez will carry out a comprehensive investigation into partisan political activity being run out of county facilities by Third District Supervisor Dawn Rowe’s staff members or any other personnel working for members of the county board of supervisors.
After more than a year of reports that suggested three of the staff members working for Rowe were gearing up for or were engaged in electioneering activity while functioning out of county government facilities, Second District Supervisor Janice Rutherford at the July 28 board of supervisors’ meeting called upon either County Counsel Michelle Blakemore or Hernandez to undertake some form of activity that would provide the public with an assurance that the staff of the county’s highest ranking officials were not using county facilities, equipment or their governmental authority to carry out political activity.
At 4:45:33 into the July 28, 2020 meeting, Supervisor Rutherford said, “I wanted to ask perhaps [County Chief Operating Officer] Leonard [Hernandez] or [County Counsel] Michelle [Blakemore], whoever feels it’s appropriate: We are entering what we refer to lovingly as silly season, that is, the campaign season where there’s lots of campaigning and politicking, and I know we have state law and county policy that we ask our county staff to abide by in terms of not using public resources to do political or campaign work. I wonder if we could just review those and give the public some assurance that we are emphasizing those and communicating those to our staff.”
At that point, a computerized voice from a teleconference line that the county maintains was, in the words of County Spokesman David Wert, “accidentally left open after it had been used,” thereby interrupting the proceedings. “Hello. There doesn’t appear to be any activity in this meeting,” the voice-over stated. Board of Supervisors Chairman Curt Hagman, who was conducting the meeting and had control over the meeting microphones and communication devices, was then heard laughing. “I think that’s the accumulation of a long day,” Hagman said, perhaps in response to the computerized voice interruption, which was either a technical faux pas or an effort to sidetrack the request Rutherford had made. Ultimately, Hagman responded to the substance of what Rutherford had said, simultaneously downplaying any suggestion that there had been any improper political activity involving supervisorial staff.
“Leonard’s here and he’ll make sure that gets out,” said Hagman, directing, in his capacity as board chairman, that the action Rutherford had requested be carried out by Hernandez as opposed to Blakemore. “He doesn’t have much to report.”
At least some members of the public observing the proceedings, which were video-recorded and streamed simultaneously and mounted on the county’s website, took what was said by Supervisor Rutherford to be a call for Hernandez or Blakemore to look into the issues pertaining to campaigns being run out of county facilities by county personnel, and investigate whether there is any substance to recurrent reports to that effect.
In 2018, then-Third District Supervisor James Ramos, a Democrat, ran successfully for the California Assembly in the 40th Assembly District. To move into that state office, he was obligated to resign his county position, with two years yet remaining on his term as supervisor, as he had most recently been reelected to that position in 2016. In December 2018, the remaining members of the board of supervisors – Republicans Janice Rutherford, Robert Lovingood and Curt Hagman and Democrat Josie Gonzales – chose Dawn Rowe, a former Yucca Valley town councilwoman, to succeed Ramos, despite Ramos’s wish that his replacement be a Democrat. Rowe is a Republican, and at the time of her appointment she was a staff member with Congressman Paul Cook, a Republican. Upon assuming office, Rowe hired Matt Knox, who was also one of Cook’s Congressional staffers, as her chief of staff, and Dillon Lesovsky, who formerly worked in Cook’s office, as her policy advisor. Both Knox and Lesovsky were Republican Party political operatives who were actively involved in the campaigns of Republican candidates for elected office. In particular, Knox and Lesovsky had an established record as “political hitmen,” who were responsible for attack ads, mailers, presentations, activities and websites which pointedly criticized, berated or characterized in a negative light the opponents of the candidates they were working on behalf of. These tactics were almost always vicious and had proven generally effective. One of Knox’s and Lesovsky’s signature attacks had been that on Tim Donnelly, another Republican whose challenge of Cook in 2018 had been so effective he found himself in the November 2018 runoff against Cook, a rare circumstance, since generally same-party candidates face each other only in a primary election rather than in a general election. Knox’s and Lesovsky’s tactics worked, and the incumbent held off the surging Donnelly, celebrated widely as the most conservative of California’s politicians when he previously served in the Assembly and ran unsuccessfully for governor, retaining for Cook his position as congressman.
In January 2019, Rowe fleshed out her supervisorial staff, hiring both Knox and Lesovsky into the chief of staff and policy advisor positions, respectively, and also taking on Suzette Swallow as her communications director. Swallow was a loan from Rutherford’s staff. Swallow had been active in Rutherford’s 2018 reelection campaign.
The hiring of three political operatives as Rowe’s staff members raised immediate red flags, such that before February 2019 began there was suspicion that a political operation was being run out of the fifth floor of the San Bernardino County administration building at 385 North Arrowhead Avenue in downtown San Bernardino, where the county supervisors have their county seat offices and where the offices of the county chief executive officer and his staff are also housed.
Almost immediately upon coming into office, a good portion of Rowe’s focus turned to ensuring that she would remain in office beyond the final two years of Ramos’s term, which in practical terms meant she and her political team needed to work toward winning the 2020 Third District supervisor’s race. Word soon came that Knox, Lesovsky and Swallow were engaged in assuring their boss’s political longevity, and that they were to lesser degrees lending support to the then-anticipated upcoming campaigns of Rowe’s allies, Republicans all, including Cook in his congressional effort; Jay Obernolte in his reelection campaign for the 33rd Assembly District in 2020; Robert Lovingood, then due to stand for reelection this year as First District county supervisor; and that they were scouting the horizon for a viable Republican candidate to seek the supervisor’s post in the Fifth District, where Josie Gonzales, the only Democrat on the board of supervisors, is to be termed out this year.
In August 2019, Supervisor Lovingood announced he would not seek reelection as supervisor, which immediately touched off a round of political musical chairs. Congressman Cook, who had previously served in the Assembly, abruptly announced that he would descend at least two rungs on the political evolutionary ladder by vying to succeed Lovingood as supervisor, an otherwise extraordinary move but for the consideration that at the age of 76, he was finding the constant transcontinental flights between California and Washington, D.C. to be wearying. That created a vacuum that Obernolte moved at once to fill, and he announced he would not seek to return to Sacramento as the 33rd District assemblyman but would instead seek to replace Cook as California’s 8th District congressman. For a brief interim, there was speculation that Lovingood would then step up to run for Obernolte’s Assembly seat. When Lovingood made clear that he was getting out of the political game entirely, the Republican clique in the High Desert put forth Thurston Smith, the one-time mayor of Hesperia, as the logical heir in the 33rd Assembly District, where the GOP holds a strong registration advantage over the Democrats.
Recurrent reports were that the political machine in Rowe’s office – Knox, Lesovsky and Swallow – were awork to maintain Republican primacy in San Bernardino County. And indeed, in the March 3, 2020 California Primary, all four of the Republican candidates the trio were said to be associated with prevailed. Rowe, challenged by four others, captured 54.96 percent of the vote to win outright in the Third District, and Cook, facing three opponents, triumphed with 64.66 percent of the vote in the county’s First District. Both avoided having to participate in a run-off election in the upcoming November general election, and will now serve on the board of supervisors at least until 2024. Obernolte comfortably captured first place with 35.71 percent of the vote against eight other candidates in the 8th Congressional District race, and Smith polled 37.9 percent of the vote for first place among seven candidates seeking the 33rd Assembly District berth. Smith outdistanced his closest competitor by more than 20 percent and Obernolte, whose opponents included four Republicans who together claimed more than 25 percent of the vote, bettered the second place finisher, a Democrat, by 7.93 percent. Both Smith and Obernolte are heavily favored in the upcoming November general election.
Thus, Rutherford’s request on July 28 was seen as a move that might force into the open the political activity ongoing in Rowe’s office, leaving open the possibility that Hernandez, depending upon how aggressively he pursued that request, might churn up documentation or irrefutable proof of the illegal activity that has been rumored to be taking place at the highest level in San Bernardino County government.
On August 6, 2020, the Sentinel emailed Hernandez, inquiring to confirm that he perceived the request by Supervisor Rutherford to be one calling for him to investigate the allegations of political activity ongoing in Supervisor Rowe’s office and whether, in the nine days since he had been tasked with the assignment, he had been able to document the activities involving Knox, Lesovsky and Swallow and thoroughly account for the time they had spent since November in their function as county employees. The Sentinel further inquired of Hernandez as to whether he had carried out a forensic analysis of the computers at Knox’s, Lesovsky’s and Swallow’s workstations, and whether he was able to document their involvement in political activity while they were simultaneously functioning in their official capacities as county employees, what that political activity consisted of and if he had ascertained which political candidates they were working on behalf of.
The Sentinel also endeavored to determine from Hernandez if he was able to determine if the political activity Knox, Lesovsky and Swallow were engaged in was being coordinated with, through or at the behest of Supervisor Rowe, and if he had come across any communications between Supervisor Rowe and her employees with regard to that political activity.
Hernandez did not respond to the Sentinel’s inquiry.
Rather, the Sentinel has learned, Hernandez – either of his own volition, at the direction of his political masters or possibly County Chief Executive Officer Gary McBride – elected to stand down in the assignment to look into political activity emanating out of the supervisors’ offices.
A multitude of factors appear to have gone into the decision to short-circuit the investigation.
Hernandez has a reputation for being both hypervigilant and super-efficient in his function, which has resulted in his rapid rise from that of county librarian in 2016 to the vaunted position of the county’s chief operating officer. Moreover, as a consequence of his position, Hernandez has access to assets, facilities, personnel, information and data that absolutely outruns that available to those outside the confines of government and which generally exceeds that available to nearly all of those functioning within the county governmental structure, with the possible exceptions of McBride as the county’s chief executive officer and Blakemore, as county counsel. Moreover, as the county’s chief operating officer, Hernandez’s access to a substantial amount of that information is more direct than that of anyone, McBride, Blakemore and the supervisors themselves included. Were Hernandez to carry out the full-dimensional investigation his position, his authority and the assets at his command make possible, he would be able to get to the bottom of the political activity that is going on within Supervisor Rowe’s office in which Lesovsky, Knox, Swallow and any others are or were involved.
The use of public facilities, equipment and personnel for partisan political activity is illegal.
Hernandez and McBride either collectively and or independently came to the conclusion that creating an evidence file establishing or otherwise documenting that a member or members of the board of supervisors was or were in violation of the law was inadvisable for a multitude of reasons. Hernandez and McBride also recognized that any documentation of the misdeeds in Rowe’s supervisorial office would potentially either indirectly or indirectly implicate Supervisor-elect Cook, as his campaign was a beneficiary of some of that political activity, and shedding discredit on two or more of the members of the board of supervisors might have unfavorable consequences for both Hernandez and McBride once Cook takes up his position as supervisor later this year.
Another issue persuaded Hernandez to eighty-six the investigation.
Ironically, it turns out, Rutherford’s staff has been implicated in ongoing political activity. Swallow, after serving as Rowe’s communications director, has now returned to Rutherford’s office, according to the county’s official spokesperson, David Wert. Additionally, Phil Paule, Rutherford’s chief of staff, has been moonlighting as a political operative.
The Sentinel has obtained documentation showing that Rowe’s supervisorial campaign made a $16,500 payment to Knox, her chief of staff, for services he rendered to his boss’s 2020 electioneering effort.
Rowe’s campaign also made a payment of $7,000 to Lesovsky as remuneration for his role as a consultant to her campaign for election on March 3 of this year, documentation in the possession of the Sentinel shows.
The Paul Cook for Supervisor campaign paid Lesovsky $2,700, another document obtained by the Sentinel establishes. That document states, without any clarification, that Lesovsy was paid that sum for rent on an office.
Additionally, the Sentinel has learned from campaign disclosure documents filed with the federal government, Paule, while simultaneously employed in the capacity of Rutherford’s chief of staff, has been working on behalf of Obernolte’s congressional campaign. The Obernolte for Congress campaign paid Paule’s company, Paule Consulting, $10,000 for his assistance in this year’s campaign.
Furthermore, information, documentation and other evidence available to the Sentinel show that Paule, along with Rutherford’s Assistant Chief of Staff Mark Taylor, Swallow and one of Rutherford’s district representatives, Ben Lopez, were actively involved in Rutherford’s 2018 reelection campaign.
Swallow served in the capacity of Rutherford’s campaign manager and as her scheduler. Finance documentation for Rutherford’s 2018 reelection campaign obtained by the Sentinel shows that Swallow received $24,262.35 in payments and reimbursements for her work, which included serving as a campaign consultant.
Mark Taylor was not paid directly by the Rutherford campaign for the work he did on behalf of the effort to reelect Rutherford in 2018. Rather, his wife, Mondi Taylor, was paid $10,948.49 by the Rutherford campaign in 2018, primarily for “professional services.”
Campaign documentation shows Lopez was paid $2,878.31 by the Rutherford campaign, $2,750 of which was for consulting work. Documentation relating to the reimbursements Lopez received from the Rutherford campaign establish that he was engaged in campaign-related activity during normal business hours when he was supposed to be functioning in his role as a county employee.
No payments were made directly to Paule or his consulting company from Rutherford’s 2018 electioneering fund. Nevertheless, in 2018 during the campaign, Paule was repeatedly present at Rutherford’s campaign headquarters during normal weekday business hours. Similarly, Lopez, Swallow and Taylor were witnessed at Rutherford’s Rancho Cucamonga campaign office during the 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. workday window on several days during the Spring 2018 campaign season, hours when, as county employees, they were required to be at their county work stations.
Additionally, Meridian Pacific, Inc., which provided the Rutherford campaign with digital advertising, campaign literature and mailings and communication services for which it was paid $279,798.31, utilized Rutherford’s staff employees as subcontractors for work it was carrying out related to the Rutherford campaign, documents show.
Upon Rutherford learning that her July 28 remarks were being interpreted as a call for Hernandez to undertake an investigation into the electioneering activity of the county’s supervisors’ staff members, including her own, she made clear that was not her intent, according to David Wert, the county’s public information officer.
Last week, on August 6, Wert told the Sentinel that Rutherford “clearly did not ask for anything akin to an investigation and she clearly made no reference to a specific circumstance. She asked for a ‘review’ of state law and county policy that we ask county staff to abide by in terms of not using public resources to do political or campaign work, and to ‘assure’ the public that we emphasize and communicate those state laws and county policies to county staff. In brief, she asked for a review of laws and policy, and an assurance to the public that those laws and policies are communicated to county employees. Even more briefly, she was asking for the county to tell the public that county employees are informed that they cannot use public resources for political purposes. I cannot see how anyone could interpret that to mean she asked for an investigation of a particular incident or incidents. I asked her about this this morning, and she confirmed she did not ask for an investigation, nor did she reference any specific circumstance.”
Wert continued, “Why was Leonard asked to handle it? Probably because Leonard oversees me, and it would be my job to make the communication requested by Supervisor Rutherford to the public. If an investigation into what you have described had been requested, neither Leonard nor Michelle would have been asked to handle it. It would have been referred to the district attorney.”
Wert asked “[W]hy would Supervisor Rutherford ask for an investigation? [N]o one has made any allegation to the county, or anyone else as far as the county knows, about anything you referenced in your email [to Hernandez].”
Wert asserted that the “only place those suggestions have appeared are in stories” which previously appeared in the Sentinel “with no attribution or sourcing.” Wert dismissed the Sentinel’s reference to “numerous” reports relating to Rowe’s staff being involved in political campaigns as falling in the class of unsupported assertions. “Are they ‘numerous?’ he asked. “Where else have they appeared besides your unattributed stories? Who has made those allegations?”
Wert made no reference to the campaign finance documentation filed by Rowe’s campaign treasurer, Bryan Burch and her assistant treasurer, Rebecca Luby, which disclosed her 2020 campaign’s payments to Knox and Lesovsky. Nor did Wert mention the campaign finance documentation filed by the treasurer of Cook’s 2020 campaign, Phil Waller, which identified the Cook campaign’s payment to Lesovsky, or the campaign finance documentation filed by Mondi Taylor, the treasurer for Rutherford’s 2018 reelection campaign, which identified the payments to Mark Taylor, Swallow and Lopez, nor the federal political campaign disclosure documents identifying Paule as a recipient of money from Obernolte’s campaign.
On August 8, Wert told the Sentinel, “I just learned Dillon Lesovsky hasn’t worked for Supervisor Rowe or any other county-affiliated entity for quite some time.” Wert did not give a precise date for the termination of Lesovsky’s employment with Rowe’s office.
Lesovsky was initially hired to serve as Rowe’s policy advisor in January 2019, effective January 22, 2019, through August 2, 2019. On August 20, 2019, the board of supervisors approved an employment contract with Lesovsky to provide support services to the Third District Supervisor as a policy advisor, effective August 17, 2019, with no termination date specified.
Lesovsky has a reputation for being indiscreet. In 2015, the Project Veritas organization, carrying out an investigation into pay-for-play politics, caught Lesovsky, then working as a staffer for Congressman Cook, on a hidden camera saying openly that political donations to Cook would earn the donors favorable treatment from the congressman. That exchange can be viewed at this link: https://www.projectveritas.com/2015/06/22/caught-on-hidden-camera-politicians-cash-in-on-export-import-bank/
That circumstance led to Cook seeking to distance himself from Lesovsky, who sometime thereafter departed as a member of Cook’s staff. Lesovsky was able to land on his feet, however, when it was arranged for him to go to work for Supervisor Robert Lovingood as a member of his staff. One member of the San Bernardino County Republican Central Committee characterized Lesovsky as a “blabbermouth” who constantly brags about the campaign work he is involved in. Indeed, elements of the Sentinel’s previous reporting with regard to the political activity ongoing in Rowe’s office stemmed either directly or indirectly from Lesovsky’s unguarded statements.
Wert was insistent that there is no inquiry into political activity involving the staff of the members of the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors, nor grounds for one.
“Supervisor Rutherford clearly did not ask anyone to look into anything,” Wert told the Sentinel. “County staff did not interpret her comments to mean that, no one is looking into anything, and that’s primarily because no one has made any allegations of the type you’ve described. You’ve repeatedly reported that allegations exist, but you’ve never reported that anyone has made the allegations. Even if allegations of the type to which you have alluded were to be made, they would not be made to the county, and the county would have no standing to look into them. They would be made to law enforcement. [I]f someone were to ask for an investigation into something of that nature, neither the chief operating officer nor county counsel would conduct the investigation. It would be a law enforcement agency conducting the ‘analysis of activity on their workplace computers’ or anything else germane to such an investigation.”
