What starts in California spreads like cancer to the rest of the country. Newsom must be voted out and never voted back in (not even as school janitor), assuming American ballot boxes aren't so captured that stopping him is impossible.

Interesting. That place had dominated agency regulations because of its humongous population but now is losing that population so fast that maybe illegals will not make up the losses. Then sane,regulation can commence.

like I said.. I just heard from a friend of mine.. his "sister" called him.. after five years.. for no other reason but to tell him that "THEY WENT TO CALIFORNIA" and didn't like the 'Tremors'.. yeah right.. I could write a BOOK on how much I HATE CALIFORNIA. ESPECIALLY SAN FRANCISCO.. been there too.. never met a more arrogant self serving group of people in my life. The Hotel, the infamous Wharf.. so called.. (I was on a job) was so rude I moved to the Army Base the Presidio in San Francisco to avoid all the junkies.. homeless people and bums.. yeah,, I mean that..

Amen! All along our west coast it is painfully evident! When individuals usurp personal responsibility in deference to government control, this is the ultimate result.

I'm seeing recent reports that 315k illegitimate ballots were counted in Georgia alone in November 2020. I don't dig down too much, knowing the key questions are NOT about the truth of the matter, but rather are about whether the so-called authorities will demonstrate any official interest in massive fraud. And I still ask the question to myself: Are there really that many people who'll look at the handiwork of Gavin Newsom, and say, "More, please." (?)

I could work myself into a lather about the stupidity of voting for a Newsom. But I know there are my 180-degree counterparts saying the same thing about Trump and Trump's voters. We come face-to-face with irreconcilable differences.

"Suicidal empathy." In the language of globalist inversion, "empathy" is camouflaged malice, and "philanthropy" is population reduction and subjugation.

For me, litigating this travesty re: 2020 election is moot ( indeed, it may also be mute 🤣 (sorry, not)); what’s not moot, nor should it be is the civil lawsuit Rudy lost over his allegations there was something fishy (sanitized vocab in use) about the ballot counting there. I fear this may be moot as well but if not I hope Rudy and some very powerful people are looking into this.

We are dealing with a class of people whose ruthlessness is effectively infinite. And they have worked their way to the levers of power, enabling them to work havoc so immense that no human justice could ever set things aright again.

Rudy is a casualty of a just struggle. I don't know about what might have transpired behind the scenes, but I never saw even Trump step up for Rudy as the latter was enduring these official torments.

As a Californian, I can say that Gavin Newsom hates us, and does everything he can to punish us because he knows the feeling is mutual.

God forbid he becomes president. He’s continued and expanded the destruction of California, and he will do the same to US if he gets a chance. Will barely survived Biden and his clowns. We don’t need another clown in the WH.

Seems to me that all one needs to do in political adverts against political weasels squirming out of California is to show, with or without voice overs, Malibu today - perhaps with flashbacks of the fire(s), empty reservoirs, and canceled firemen who were politically incorrect.

Newsome won’t be president. He’s not a likable guy for independents. He talks with his hands which just makes him look weird. He tried a podcast to speak with republicans which he quit when he was getting destroyed on public policy. He has taken California so far down the toilet that most of the state hates him. California only needs LA and SF to control the whole state. Which is where he gets his support from. The other states that follow California are all in the same boat yet haven’t suffered as much yet but are getting close. New York plus Illinois and NJ are all high tax states that people are fleeing by the thousands. His policies aren’t popular across the country. He would be as bad as Biden but worse because he does have a brain that works.

As were others who locked down their states and countries, like Gretchen Whitmer and Justin Trudeau, and and all too many U.S. politicians.

California Voters are either stupid or vote counters are acting in their own self interest. $4.50 for gas, parents have not right to parent their children, gun owners have no right to defend themselves, Doctors are prohibited from prescribing Ivermectin when it’s over the counter in 4 states, among the highest taxes and the worst management of our taxes, 30 billion stolen in Plandemic fraud from jail cells, billions spent on homeless management while the homeless population grows, billions spent to study building a bullet train but not even any track and the money is gone, closing nuclear power down while trying to force EV’s, no attempt to build more water storage in decades, banning paper bags and requiring plastic only to now ban plastic and require paper, ban plastic straws, require recycling then dump all the trash in the same place, pay illegal immigrants health care and schooling… I’ve lived long enough in CA to see this idiot of a governor destroy San Francisco and now the entire state. He’s really a Tim Waltz clone in sheep’s clothing.

What was done to CA, really the entire west, is not the result of the incompetence of one man. It seems way too strategic for Newsom to pull off. It was really stunning to be an eyewitness to the disintegration, watching exquisite places trashed with the government’s outspoken encouragement to trash ever more. Certainly every illegal who feels CA is stolen land will vote for Newsom, every person who thinks the state should be dismantled will vote for him, any ties to China will probably support him, any person who can’t make it there and needs handouts will vote for him and then there are the “progressives” who ideologically can’t vote Republican. This is a mess. Investigating the NGO’s and any ties to foreign countries should be immediate. And as they try to fill the financial gap with taxing the rich, hopefully it will be judged unconstitutional, if possible. Starve the corruption.

California was a beautiful state. A place where we Idahoans like to vacation in the winter and spring to get out of the cold. I love palm trees . If I can see palm trees it means the weather will be warmer. Now I love my state but sometimes the winters can be long and cold .

I can’t believe the Californians can be so twp ( a Welsh word meaning stupid) my Welsh grandma used this word. Newsom has ruined a beautiful place. How can a residence of California vote for such a corrupt, evil man? It makes no sense.

Have a wonderful Christmas Eve!

Both my parents were from Santa Barbra, I was born in California back in the 50s into a family that moved to California in the 1840s. Now the only thing I have in California are the graves of my ancestors

"2016"? Did you not mean "2026"?

When will Gavin make home-schooling illegal?

Expand full comment
Joy Metcalf's avatar

He didn't, but the homeschooling in California requires parents to legally set up a private home school which adheres to the California Education Code or hire a tutor. IOW, jump through those hoops, plebes!

I grew up in Sherman Oaks (next to Van Nuys in the San Fernando Valley). I attended Van Nuys High and we all thought the “Valley Girls” were silly, self-centered airheads. They were nothing like the rest of us who concentrated on learning and not which high class label was sewn on the expensive jeans you were wearing. “Plastic people” we called them. They are all grown up now but you can see their offspring on the “Real Housewives” shows. If your purse doesn’t have a name sewn on it and cost at least four digits, you just aren’t worth knowing. There are much more important things in life, but they haven’t a clue. Everything is fake…..eyelashes, bust, hair, facelift, injections, surgeries galore. They never stop to think how hard that is on their bodies to be under anesthesia….time and time and time again. There was a young woman in our church who had two babies and wanted to have a firm bust again. She went in for surgery and never came off the table alive. Her kids grew up without a mother. Now really…was that boob job worth it?

I had suspected for a long time that the "like...like...like...like" that's so sprinkled through the speech of so many came from California. Now, did Frank Zappa cause it or just report it? Just one more banal thing to come from California culture. I always want to slap someone up the side of the head and tell them to spit out the verbal tics and just speak, for goodness sake. What's most disturbing is that I hear so many podcasters, even those past middle age, scattering "like....like....like...." throughout. No wonder so much of the world considers Americans uneducated dolts. Even those who are intelligent and educated use the same annoying "filler" words.

California (and maybe the entire country) need mandatory Toastmasters classes!! It was so eye-opening when I joined years ago, to have filler words called out, and other speaking faux pas!
