Shawn E. Moore of National Talk Radio Had Me Back On to Discuss Lack of Oaths, FTB Paying NGO’s to Sign Up Migrants for ITINs, and FTB’s Customer Service Failures

We immediately launch into content with virtually no chit chat. I give a quick recap of what we’d discussed in the previous episode.

At 2:00, I read off the names of the legislators who do not have current oaths on file with the SOS.  Here is a list of oath laws. In a nutshell, not swearing an oath is a penalty punishable with three years in prison. However, government employees will choose not to take oaths if they know they are going to be committing treason of oath, which has a more severe penalty.  Here are all of the oaths that I have collected from CA state level government employees. Scroll all the way down to nearly the bottom for the State Assembly and State Senate.

Update on the Oath/Bond Situation for 2025/2026

In my last post on this topic, I had stated that I’d ordered copies of oaths and bonds from the State Senate Rules Committee on December 3, 2024 for some state senators and many staffers. Those oaths/bonds were due on December 17. As of that post on March 7, 2025, the State Senate had not provided any oaths. In that document, I’d also requested other information, as well.

In my last post on this topic, I’d also stated that I’d ordered oaths/bonds from the Secretary of State on 100 people. On February 10, 2025, the SOS stated that only two of those people had current oaths on file, and no one had a bond on file (the images of the letter are at the bottom of the previous post on the topic).

I always said that the large number of people lacking current oaths could be a mistake and that I was trying to confirm that the SOS information was accurate. However, the lack of bonds is intentional — it seems that the State of California stopped following the bond laws when Reagan was governor.

Charlee Simons of “Do Not Talk” Had Me Back to Talk About Oaths, Signing Up Migrants for ITINs and FTB’s Disguising Criminal Schemes as Customer Service Failures

I come on at the 4-minute mark and we greet one another and talk about the previous episode we did together.

At 5:15, I give the background information about oath laws and explain why government employees choose not to take oaths.

At 6:30, I read the names of the legislators that the Secretary of State confirmed do not have a current oath on file for 2025 – 2026. Here are all of the oaths that I have collected. Scroll all the way down to nearly the bottom for the State Assembly and State Senate. 

At 9:00, I talk about my next strategy: Since it is illegal to pay government employees who don’t have fully executed oaths, I plan to contact State Controller Malia Cohen to ask her to halt pay on these people and claw back funds already paid.
