El 31 de enero de 1848, el comandante John C. Frémont, admirado popularmente por sus expediciones de cartografía al oeste, fue sometido a una corte marcial por motín y desobediencia de órdenes, sin embargo, mantuvo su popularidad y estima entre el público estadounidense. Sus exploraciones bien difundidas de Occidente y sus hazañas en la Rebelión de California contra México contribuyeron a su elección como uno de los primeros senadores de California en 1850.
