The Republican candidate for governor of Colorado Victor Marx described body-slamming his wife, throwing his toddler across a room and claiming God had given him a "gift for violence" in a series of videos and posts.

He is often a guest speaker of Persecution-themed christian boot camp seminars, conferences, and camp meetings, for example, The Men Summit and Bethel's Men conference that held annually.

Sean Feucht is using a faith-based platform to rally support.

Feucht has thrown his visibility and influence behind Marx's campaign team, frequently promoting campaign efforts alongside other high-profile conservative and Christian figures, and now faces a new lawsuit for donations fraud.

From Redding Now Facebook page:

🚨🚨🚨 DID THE IRONMAN EVENT IN REDDING, CALIFORNIA SCAM THESE WORKERS?! 🚨🚨🚨

🖤 PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE POST. THESE LOCAL WORKERS DESERVE ANSWERS. 🖤

THIS STORY IS ABSOLUTELY UPSETTING.

IRONMAN in Redding, California, seemed to be a huge success, and our community really embraced this event.

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE CONS OF THE IRONMAN EVENT AND THE LOCAL PEOPLE WHO SHOWED UP BEHIND THE SCENES, WORKED THEIR SCHEDULED HOURS, AND WERE PROMISED THEY WOULD BE PAID?

🚨 IMPORTANT CLARIFICATION: The workers involved in this story are LOCAL Redding area people. The company personnel who came to set up and run the event came from the IRONMAN company in Tampa, Florida. This is NOT about our locally owned Redding businesses or local businesses that supported the event.

I was brought attention to this situation by one of my incredible Redding NOW followers, Chelsea Reed, who worked the event. ✨

Chelsea Reed shares: ✨

«“We really had so much fun and absolutely loved working in the event. We just wanna be paid for the work that we put in. And we advertised for this event on our social medias, had family and friends come down to purchase items. It’s just not fair that we put on all this work and have nothing to show for it.”»

There are approximately 12 workers that we currently know of who worked the IRONMAN merchandising tent at the Redding Civic Center by the finish line, and NONE OF THEM HAVE BEEN PAID. ❌

The workers found a Facebook post with a link to sign up to work the IRONMAN event for $20 an hour. Once they signed up, they were contacted by HR employees to complete their onboarding paperwork through a UKG system. They entered their direct deposit information and were told they would be paid through direct deposit.

The IRONMAN company sent people from their actual company in Tampa, Florida, to Redding to set up and run the event.

There was a store manager named Justin who was in charge of the workers.

Several of the workers worked their full schedule of 32.5 hours at $20 an hour.

They were promised a paycheck no later than yesterday.

YESTERDAY CAME. NO PAYCHECK. ❌💰

The workers tried to get answers, but say Justin wouldn't even provide them with a direct HR phone number. They eventually had to find the contact information themselves.

They called the numbers they found but couldn't get anyone on the phone who could give them an actual answer.

Eventually, they received a generic email saying there was an issue with the payroll system.

Okay, payroll issues can happen.

BUT WHEN ARE THEY GETTING PAID?

They have no new payday, no timeframe and no clear explanation.

Justin is now no longer responding to them regarding their unpaid wages, and that's incredibly frustrating.

Most of these workers are single parents who took this job to earn additional income.

Chelsea is one of those single moms. Her bank account is currently overdrawn, and she was really depending on this money to help support herself and her family.

Her birthday is also this weekend, and she may have to cancel her plans because she's still waiting on money she was promised she would already have. 🖤

And she's not the only one affected.

Several workers worked 32.5 hours at $20 an hour, which is $650 per worker.

If all 12 workers worked the full schedule, that's approximately $7,800 collectively in wages. 💰

$7,800.

That's money these local workers earned by showing up and doing the work they were hired to do.

So if IRONMAN in Redding was such a huge success, why can't these workers simply be paid the money they earned?

This isn't money they're asking for.

THEY JUST WANT TO BE PAID.

📸 The workers have screenshots of their schedule, roster, hours worked, emails and text messages regarding their pay.

THESE SCREENSHOTS ARE FROM THE ACTUAL WORKERS AND SHOW AN ONGOING SITUATION HAPPENING RIGHT NOW.

Last names have been blurred out for privacy.

There's also another worker named Tyler who received completely different information from one of the women helping run the event, who is also an IRONMAN manager. They have documentation and communication regarding that as well.

At this point, the workers are starting to feel like they were scammed.

But I want to be very clear:

🖤 THIS IS NOT ABOUT SAYING THE IRONMAN EVENT ITSELF WAS BAD FOR REDDING.

I think the event was exciting. I think Redding embraced it. I think our community deserves opportunities like this.

BUT A SUCCESSFUL EVENT SHOULD ALSO MEAN THE PEOPLE WHO WORKED IT ARE TREATED FAIRLY AND PAID FOR THEIR WORK.

They're not asking for anything extra.

THEY JUST WANT THE MONEY THEY WORKED HARD TO EARN. 💰

⚠️ SO I'M ASKING IRONMAN PUBLICLY:

🚨 WHERE ARE THESE WORKERS' PAYCHECKS?

⏰ WHEN ARE THEY ACTUALLY GETTING PAID?

❓ WHY CAN'T ANYONE GIVE THEM A STRAIGHT ANSWER?

If this is truly a payroll system issue, TELL THEM.

If there is a date when they will be paid, TELL THEM.

Please stop leaving people who worked this event wondering when or if they will receive the money they earned.

These are real people.

Real parents. Real families. Real bills. 🖤

And all they're asking for is what they were promised.

💰 THEIR PAYCHECKS.

If you worked the IRONMAN merchandising tent in Redding, California, and still haven't been paid, please reach out to me.

If you worked another IRONMAN position in Redding and had a similar experience, I want to hear from you too.

🚨🖤 PLEASE SHARE THIS POST SO WE CAN GET THE ATTENTION OF IRONMAN ITSELF AND HELP THESE WORKERS GET THE ANSWERS THEY DESERVE. 🖤🚨

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. ❤️

I truly hope these workers get the money they earned and deserve.

God bless.

Redding citizens need to keep a vigilant eye on all city and county development projects. History has a way of repeating itself in this county.

In a meeting in May 2020 to rapidly surplus and sell the roadway parcel in just 11 days without public notice or notifying the Tribe: Erin Resner Kristin Schreder Adam McElvain Julie Winter

This is what CD &W wrote;

“Here is the website: Oregon Street Improvements Project Initial Study & Mitigated Negative Declaration, where you can review the City’s MND and CDFW’s comments on the proposed project (at the bottom of the page). https://ceqanet.lci.ca.gov/2021040664.

Shortly after posting the document for public comment, the City applied for and received a Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement with appropriate avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures that include “impacts to 0.111 acre of Class I stream habitat shall be mitigated at a 3:1 replacement-to-impact ratio through the creation, restoration, or enhancement of 0.333 acre of finned fish-bearing stream within or near the City, at a location and in a manner to be approved by CDFW.”

While CDFW often recommends design solutions that support ecological function, CDFW does not have the authority to direct a lead agency to choose a different type of infrastructure. Our authority is focused on ensuring that the project, as proposed, incorporates measures to protect biological resources within our purview and complies with Fish and Game Code, when appropriate.

If you are interested in public participation in project design and review, the most effective path at this point is through the City of Redding, as they are both the project proponent and the CEQA lead agency. The city controls the design, the timing, funding, and any potential modifications. “

I met with the late Redding City Manager, Mr. Tarbox, early this year, and he stated, wanting to help the creeks and thanking the adopt a quick program for cleaning creeks. He stated that if areas of trash were not picked up timely to email him so he would ensure that this would happen. Unfortunately, he passed away due to a heart attack. The interim city manager, Michael Webb (appointed July 2026) is the Public Works Director who appears to have pushed this destructive project through quickly as part of his city manager authority with the ok from city council?

What a disgusting disgrace. Look what has happened in three weeks. Goodbye Creek!! While other cities are daylighting creeks to restore them , here we are burying them and turning them into concrete culverts.!!

Why did they go against what the Department of Fish and Wildlife recommended? Who gave this the ok?

What happened to all the restoration money that was recently given out to fix this creek.?

Whose pockets are now full of money which was supposed to be used for restoration.?

Hey City of Redding , you should have taken the signs of advice and Protected Our Waterways. Ours!!

And now Salt Creek near Oasis, which supports lots of wildlife, birds , beaver, and recently salmon, is the next creek in the crosshairs of progress. !!

The local political drama is getting worse here .

🚨: They’re trying to sneak Patrick Jones’ gun range through on today's consent calendar.

​If you think that’s an exaggeration, follow the paper trail:

​Item C7 (Today's BoS Agenda): Hidden on the Consent Calendar in intentionally vague language where no one usually pays attention.

​Planning Commission Minutes: Where Jones’ original gun range proposal fell apart.

The developer listed? Kevin Butler.

​The Expose: Investigative reporter R.V. Scheide confirmed Butler Engineering Group Inc. is the exact developer Jones hired for his range.

https://anewscafe.com/2023/10/21/redding/a-case-of-overshoot-is-supervisor-patrick-jones-gun-range-proposal-too-big-for-shasta-county/

​The Planning Commission blocked it, so now they’re using ambiguous votes to swap in a loyalist or clear obstacles behind closed doors. That explains Corkey Harmon’s blind loyalty.

​Why is an item that directly lines Patrick Jones’ pockets being hidden in the fine print from local citizens?

🚨​Please SHARE THIS IMMEDIATELY🚨—the people of Millville need to see what’s being voted on today agenda!

Some more multiple examples of local overstepping and bullying and not consulting the public approval or environmental impact studies to push things through ?

A citizen-led protest discouraged this development, but if they didn't, it would have been pushed through in multi-family occupied subdivision.

Caboose Creek:

Redding $4 million public works plan to put Calaboose Creek into a 460 foot long culvert (already done and completed). How would you rescue someone if accidentally swept in? This will increase turbulence and flooding downstream and upstream as witnessed last year. Environmentally knowledgeable cities are unearthing once covered creeks. It’s called “daylighting”. Our city uses restoring a creek money for killing a creek by putting it into a concrete channel! Where was the environmental impact report before construction?

Heads up, Humboldt Bay! High astronomical tides over the next several days may lead to localized minor flooding. Expect flooding to be possible in the two hours surrounding high tide, which on Monday night is 10:21 PM at the North Spit. This period of concern will shift about an hour later each night as we roll through Wednesday, after which we expect calmer seas. Stay safe!

A mountain lion was reportedly spotted early Thursday morning (August 6th) in the Alta Mesa area of Redding.

While sightings like this are uncommon, mountain lions are native to our area and occasionally travel through neighborhoods, especially during the early morning and evening hours.

If you live nearby, it may be a good idea to keep cats, small dogs, and small children indoors whenever possible, supervise pets, and kids when they're outside (especially around dawn and dusk)

Keep livestock and pet food secured, and stay aware of your surroundings if you are walking or jogging in the area. People might use caution and not want to plan on exercising or walking dogs at sunset or just before sunrise (primary times of mountain lion hunting activities)

If you happen to see the mountain lion, don't approach it or attempt to follow it. Give it plenty of space and report any aggressive behavior or immediate public safety concerns to the appropriate authorities.

This post is simply meant to help keep our community informed and encourage everyone to take a few extra precautions with their pets and children.

Have you ever seen a mountain lion in your neighborhood?
