Since we broke the news that Gene James is selling his house, Information has Poured in. Gene James is apparently Cryin like a B—-.
I had been wondering if there was actually truth to Gene James’ claim he was too broke to pay a $504 traffic ticket. Official court records show that James said he needed a financial hardship payment plan to pay the ticket in $50 installments. Perhaps this is why the living reality show needed a break from the court – a $12,000 mortgage payment is a lot. Wait, that is his wife’s money… how quickly I forget.
Here on the Right on Daily Blog, we have been tracking Gene James’ life since defeating an 18 year old communist for San Clemente City Council. James, for his part was a key supporter of Chris Duncan who is a flaming leftist. (The Irony is thick)
You have to ask, Did Democrats Oust Gene James?
San Clemente was a solid Republican city until Gene James blew into San Clemente. Now it appears that his adversary, then drinking buddy and now enemy Mayor Chris Duncan made good on his threat to force James to resign over his engaging in Stolen Valor. During Duncan’s last campaign for council, he saw an opportunity to advance himself at Gene James’ expense, cutting a video calling on James to resign over his stolen valor.
–
James was Democrat Duncan’s chief booster and confidant, who regularly drank and held court at a local saloon, the Red Fox, after Chamber meetings. Like a good flaming liberal, everyone is expendible in the course of attempting to acquire power. In this regard, James and Duncan were made for each other and their relationship would never survive their mutual lack of character and ambition.
–
James nominated Duncan to be Mayor Pro Tem, which is an automatic elevation to Mayor. During the last vote for the position, James did a switcheroo and nominated himself to serve an unprecedented second term, rather than nominate and vote for fellow Republican, Steve Knoblock to keep a Democrat from holding the Mayor’s position.

Recently things soured between Duncan and James. Duncan supported spending over $47,000 of taxpayer money in a failed attempt to get the city’s insurance carrier the JPOA to cover Gene James’ legal fees.
–
Gene wasn’t keen to return the favor of helping himself to public funds, and last month he finally joined a contingent of citizens, who were asking Duncan to return the taxpayer money he spend for a campaign trip to DC.
–
What we know here at Right on Daily is that Attorney Chris Duncan once worked for Homeland Security. You wonder if he finally got a hold of Gene James’ military discharge papers (DD-214), which shows a different story of James supposedly having received three Meritorious Service Medals, a Legion of Merit, being an Army Airborne fighter, and receiving an honorable discharge. It is the belief of Right on Daily that James got a General Discharge, was in a more ordinary MOS and neither medal was ever awarded to him.

It is the cavalcade of lies that has finally caught up to Gene James.
–
So like the Malignant Narcissist I believe him to be, he is now Gaslighting the City of San Clemente saying he no longer feels safe there. He has no one to blame but himself, including inflaming a kid in to assaulting him with a skateboard. In addition, he is using his current wife (he has been married 3-4 times based on what I know) as a strawman claiming she lays awake at night, blah blah blah. (Please note that this paragraph is based on hearsay from people in San Clemente that have reached out to me claiming to have heard this from James himself) So it is San Clemente, the Skateboarder and his Wife’s Fault he is cutting and running… see how that works?
–
I thought Gene James was a security consultant? This would suggest that he can take care of himself, right? Well, it turns out that was another lie that was exposed in the same deposition that exposed the stolen valor. It got worse, Gene James was also forced to admit that he never started or opened the company Genesis Security.
–
Here is the conclusion I can draw. (Conclusions I believe to be true based on what I know)
–
Gene James has lived a lie since getting kicked out of the Military. He has used exagerated claims about his military service and personal skills to get through the last 30+ years of his life. A summary put out by a local rag is linked here.
–
James lives like a gigolo. He Love-Bombs women, gets them in to a committed relationship then bleeds them dry. He uses them to pay his debts that he racks up from the results of the cons / scams that he has run his entire life.
–
James is driven by fear and shame, which as you age begins to manifest more and more as rage. (See also bullying episodes, lashing out at police, the skateboard incident, assaulting the homeless, etc…)
–
As the walls are closing in on James’ life which has been dotted with lawsuits, legal issues, violence, divorce, cons and scams, James is facing the horrifying prospect of dealing with his real self that he his ashamed of versus the false self that is falling apart in a public and spectacular way.
–
The next and only move to save face and reinstall the false self is to gaslight your faults on to current circumstances, hide behind strawmen and retreat to somewhere else where no one knows you.
–
Hopefully, wherever Gene James lands next, those people know how to use Google as this stuff will be here on Right on Daily forever.
–
James is reputed to be resigning his council seat this week (Week starting 4-16-2023) and moving out of the area shortly thereafter.

Gene James has always been a liar and a bully yet the townspeople of San Clemente turned a blind eye and still elected this clown. Maybe Mrs James should find a better mate that won’t make her feel unsafe because it’s not the City, it’s her husband’s behavior.
Today is 17 APR 2023, so did he resign?
