Roxanne Beckford Hoge and Bob Hoge

Man makes plans, God laughs.

It’s an apt description for all humans, and we are no exception. When we first thought about collaborating on a Substack, we had many thoughts and we weren’t sure about the best way to help move the needle from here in deepest, darkest blue Los Angeles.

Then Bob cranked up his writing and breaking news commentary on RedState, and Roxanne worked so much as a volunteer Communications Director of the Los Angeles County Republican Party that she was elected its Chairman.

Both of us love being in the fight, and want fellow Angelenos, Californians and anyone else who’s a conservative minority to know that they are not alone.

Here is where you can find our musings:

BOB HOGE

RedState archive—everything from rescued moose to dropped indictments.

Twitter aka X—little bit of snark and hot takes and open DMs for tips. Also, occasional posts of his stories by the likes of Scott Adams, DJT, Ted Cruz, Karoline Leavitt and more.

ROXANNE HOGE

Twitter—she refuses to call it X and shares political hot takes so strangers can take shots at her instead of doing it on Facebook where family and friends could be mean.

YouTube—an incomplete archive of making the case for common sense.

Writing—some articles for American Greatness, LA Daily News, and RedState.

We have both visited Fox News shows. Find Roxanne here and Bob here.
