Our History
A Political Seed Was Planted Among the Orange Trees...
The Pasadena Republican Club was founded on March 29, 1884, and its membership included every Republican in the thriving ten year old village of some two hundred families settled among acres of orange groves. This was four years after Republican Rutherford B. Hayes, the first president of the United States ever set foot in Pasadena.

Next Meeting: June 19, 2025
JENNIFER VAN LAAR
MANAGING EDITOR, www.REDSTATE.com
Jennifer Van Laar, RedState’s Managing Editor, is an unapologetic California conservative, sports fanatic, mom of three boys, and Gramie to two perfect little girls. She holds a bachelor’s degree from Boston University, where she studied international relations and became a die-hard hockey fan. Prior to entering journalism in 2014, she was a court reporter for 20 years in the criminal and civil
courts of North Carolina. She joins The Inland Empire Answer on Salem Radio Network’s AM 590 The Answer every Thursday for “Spill The Tea Thursday.”
Founded in 2004 as a community blog, RedState has grown into one of the nation’s leading conservative news and opinion outlets. Unlike most traditional news sites, RedState’s writers don’t live in the Acela corridor, and many have had successful careers in fields other than news or politics. Its writers are located in 18 states (at last count), from Alaska to Florida and from California to Pennsylvania, and are politically and civically active in their communities, giving them a perspective and depth of knowledge that few national outlets can match.
