In an exclusive interview to the Flash Report, a California State Senate senior staffer revealed a behind-the-scenes plot to save, or at least continue the Senate paycheck of Democrat Senator Tony Mendoza (Artesia), who in multiple media reports and news articles is alleged to be a serial sexual harasser of women in his own Senate office.
Thursday it was revealed that the #MeToo Movement may be compromised by one of its leaders, Democrat Assemblywoman Cristina Garcia, after new sexual harassment allegations against her surfaced.
For many years I have written about the horrendous challenges California business owners face because of legislatively-imposed environmental regulations, business-killing regulations and labor laws, hostile politicians and city councils, and government-sanctioned labor union attacks on non-union businesses. Few politicians have ever run a business or owned a business, and even fewer appreciate what it takes to grow a business
I'm just a Navy mom of a United States Naval Academy graduate who is currently a Navy special ops officer, and has had two long Middle East deployments. I wasn't going to weigh in on the liberal California councilman and public school teacher who told his students "military are 'dumbsh*ts" and "lowest of our low." That is, until I read that the school district officials of Gregory Salcido, El Rancho High School history teacher and a current member of the Pico Rivera City Council, were covering for him, even after he said when speaking about our military, "They're the frickin' lowest of our low," in one of three videos that surfaced last week.
California’s Democrats are on an accelerated path of destruction of the once Golden State. In Parts l and Part ll of my series on how California’s leftist Democrats have turned the Golden State into a sh*thole, I explain how California’s ruling party is doubling down on business-destroying policies, energy destroying policies, education destroying policies, and policies destroying California’s abundant natural resources. The new law claiming sanctuary state status is blatantly unconstitutional, as is “legalizing” marijuana.
The latest women's march is more proof that these leftists--and they all are leftists--are empty-headed imbeciles. Billed as demonstrations in support of "female empowerment," this march of ugly, angry leftists doesn't understand that the rest of us are laughing at them. They are having an annual emotional flare-up, a temper tantrum, but they can't articulate what they are upset about.
How many ways can California's leftist Democrats turn the Golden State into a sh*thole? In Part l, I addressed the outbound migration of California's hard working middle class, as well as millennials choosing low-tax states to live and work.
Despite so-called "progressives" promising their policies will create a Soviet-style worker's paradise, California's leftist Democrats have turned the once Golden State into a sh*thole through decades of leftist policies penalizing and demonizing employers, businesses, property owners, innovators, entrepreneurs--and really, anyone who wants to work hard and get ahead. These hard working people are responding by fleeing liberal California for conservative red states.
More is never enough for California politicians, as evidenced by our highest-in-the-nation taxes. The once-Golden State of opportunity and innovation ranks 48th in the Tax Foundation's 2018 State Business Tax Climate Index.
Environmentalists claim global warming can be mitigated, but only if humans are forced to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This pseudo-science is what California's leftist politicians have adopted to control human activity, and the unelected bureaucrats at the California Air Resources Board based its cap-and-trade carbon auction program on.
Voters legalized pot several years ago in Colorado and Washington State. They were promised increased tax revenue increases and better-educated children for their vote. For the love of money and claims of liberty, disasters are now unfolding in both states.
Are we witnessingthe collapse of journalism?
With the casting couch being front page headlines in Hollywood, New York, Washington D.C. and in California's State Capitol,"unwanted sexual advances" has become the latest unfortunate phrase in today's news pages.
