California Dem Politicians Caused Homeless Crisis, Abetted by the Media

California Dem Politicians Caused Homeless Crisis, Abetted by the Media The explosion of California homelessness can be directly linked to the radical left's determination to empty out the jails and prisons through legislation and ballot initiatives, claiming to be for safe neighborhoods and the well-being of our children. Combine that with the outrageous housing costs and lack of available affordable housing, and California is ground zero for a homeless explosion comparable only to colonies of feral cats.

Starbucks: Virtue Signaling Public Potty Chain Also Serves Coffee

Starbucks: Virtue Signaling Public Potty Chain Also Serves Coffee Following Starbucks' corporate announcement that anyone can use the store's restrooms, even without buying anything, I posted on Twitter: "Starbuck's: A national public bathroom chain which serves mediocre espresso coffee topped with a frothy whip of white privilege, and an extra shot of millennial attitude."

1991 Homicidal Handyman Case: My Jury Tampering Questions Linger

1991 Homicidal Handyman Case: My Jury Tampering Questions Linger I received a jury summons in the mail last week. Whenever this happens, I stare at it for a few days or weeks, and then try to dream up an exotic excuse why I cannot possibly serve. I'm not trying to get out of my civic duty; I paid my civic debt years ago on a death penalty jury--and I was a casualty of jury tampering.

California Democrats Push Communist Holiday Over President's Day

California Democrats Push Communist Holiday Over President's Day California's elected Democrats are pushing for a communist holiday, at the expense of a U.S. President's Day. Remember during the Cold War when "better dead than Red?" was the thinking? History repeats itself because evil never goes away.

Taking the 'Boy' Out of Boy Scouting

Taking the 'Boy' Out of Boy ScoutingThe headline should read, "Boy Scouts Welcome Girls In New Gender Neutral Scouts." How hospitable. The announcement that the Boy Scouts of America will be dropping "Boy" from the name and admitting girls is sadly not surprising, but is extremely disappointing. My son, now a toxically-masculine 29, was a Cub Scout, Webelo Scout, Life Scout, and third generation Eagle Scout. During his scouting years, we observed scouting changing with more moms getting involved, disallowing boys from being boys in many cases. In 2000, he changed boy scout troops shortly after graduating from Webelo Scout to Boy Scout in order to find a troop he felt met the true sense of "Boy" Scouting. He moved to Sacramento's Troop 1, the oldest, continuous Boy Scout Unit west of the Mississippi River, started in 1916. He enjoyed Troop 1 for many years until he achieved Eagle Scout and graduated high school.

#MeToo Movement Quickly Morphed Into #MeTooBS

Sen. Nancy Skinner, D-BerkeleyLeftist feminist women are trying to dominate/destroy our youth through their envy and hatred of men. Their denial of their own power to unite, or the power to divide, is significant. Women have amazing power, but when used destructively, it is devastating. Except for some allegations of actual rape and serious violent sexual assault, far too much of the behavior spelled out in the #MeToo movement is not criminal. The women who have climbed the career ladders using sex is not insignificant and cannot be downplayed in the #MeToo movement, regardless of how many of them signed "the letter."

CA Democrats Repeating Rent Control Insanity

CA Democrats Repeating Rent Control Insanity The definition of insanity is to repeat the same mistake over and over again, while hoping for a different, better outcome. Such is the latest case of the predictable Left, turning once again to another failed sociological experiment--capping or regulating rents artificially, more commonly known as "Rent Control." Democrats in California are once again imposing rent control initiatives through state and local ballot measures, including the Sacramento Renter Protection And Community Stabilization Charter Amendment.

Attn Parents: Democrats Have Replaced Educational Curricula With Perversion

California lawmakers are not only bulldozing classic liberal education, they are legislating more LGBT lifestyle and pornographic perversion in education curricula. At the same time, they are also trying to outlaw homeschooling, removing all doubt that the left is indoctrinating your kids, and using them as revolting sociological experiments.

Gerawan Farming Taking State-Forced Unionization Case to US Supreme Court

Gerawan Farming Taking State-Forced Unionization Case to US Supreme Court Surprising no one, on Nov. 27, the California Supreme Court upheld the dubious Mandatory Mediation and Conciliation law against Gerawan Farming. The California Supreme Court heard the Gerawan case last fall on whether the state's attempting to force mandatory agricultural labor union contracts violates the constitutional safeguard of equal protection. Fresno-based peach grower Gerawan Farming is one of the largest agriculture employers in the state.

CA Gov. Jerry Brown Rejects Feds' Initial National Guard Border Plans

CA Gov. Jerry Brown Rejects Feds' Initial National Guard Border Plans After sitting silently on his hands for days, last week Gov. Jerry Brown finally agreed to allow the California National Guard to send 400 troops to the U.S.-Mexico border, but would not allow guard members to stop illegal immigrants from entering the country illegally, in exchange for money from the Trump administration to beef up the state's guard. Gov. Brown defiantly declared his troops "will not be used to enforce federal immigration laws."

California Media Re-Writing Violent Abusive History of Stephon Clark

California Media Re-Writing Violent Abusive History of Stephon Clark As with most of the fraudulent legacy media, Sacramento Bee columnist Marcos Bretón has portrayed Stephon Clark to be some sort of martyred saint after his recent shooting death by Sacramento police: He’s a “loving father of two,” and “killed in his grandmother’s backyard.” The Los Angeles Times said of Clark: “Beloved, troubled young life cut short in police shooting.”

Saint John's Program For Homeless/Addicted Women Threatened by County Bureaucrats

Saint John's graduates, with Olympian Ruthie Bolton We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.--~Mother Teresa Today, American's mental health institutions have become county jails. Especially in California, following the 2011 prison realignment which resulted in moving "non-violent" prisoners from state prisons down to county jails and letting the "non-violent" out of jails. And Propositions 47 and 57 decriminalized theft, and many drug and sex crimes.

CA Dem Sen. Richard Pan Introduces Bill to Force Websites to Use 'Fact-Checkers'

CA Dem Sen. Richard Pan Introduces Bill to Force Websites to Use Fact-Checkers Sen. Richard Pan (D-Sacramento) is the author of the "Online False Information Act," a new bill that would require anyone who posts any news on the Internet to verify all information through "fact-checkers." Sen. Pan does not name who these "fact checkers" are, but I'm sure the State of California will create a new agency of state workers to oversee this.

California AG Xavier Becerra: Corrupt Anarchist

California AG Xavier Becerra: Corrupt Anarchist, Immediately following the November 2016 election, California Governor Jerry Brown appointed U.S. Rep. Xavier Becerra (D) to replace State Attorney General Kamala Harris, who won election to the U.S. Senate seat vacated by the retiring Sen. Barbara Boxer. Many wonder why Becerra was Brown's choice given that Becerra served in Congress since 1993, and resided in a million dollar home in Washington, D.C. (his primary residence) with his wife and three children, regardless of the requirement that a congressman from a certain district has to live there.
