I will believe it when I see the voting results.

Democrats already tax plastic bags at $0.10 per bag but now they want to outright ban all plastic bags.  No good reason other than these idiots want to virtue signal.

Job growth is the worst in the country, inflation is higher here than in the rest of the country, signs of recession are every where, businesses are leaving the state in droves...  Greasy Newscum decides this is the perfect time for big tax increases.

Quote from: Thiel on May 22, 2024, 06:46:29 PMAs concerns mount that President Joe Biden might lose re-election, Democrats in the White House and Congress have worked to sabotage and hamstring a returning Donald Trump on issues from immigration and foreign policy to spending and classical architecture.

Agree.  That was all that fake supposed "bipartisan" bill was all about.  It blocked any future President from cracking down on illegal immigration until after 3 million per year already got in. 

From local media on a current fire in a utility level battery storage center that no one can put out:

San Diego Firefighters have flown in experts to the Otay Mesa Battery Storage to study the fire because they do not know how to put it out
The Battery storage fire has already used 5 million gallons of water
Firefighters say it will take an additional 7-10 days to put out
They estimate it will take a total of 15-20 million gallons of water to put out
LETHAL amounts of Hydrogen Cyanide were in the air for 3 hours after the Otay Mesa Battery Storage fire began
This project does not belong in a residential area.

You can tell a lot by an elected representative by how they respond to the community. When the fire at the Otay Mesa battery storage facility broke out & La Mesa/San Carlos residents expressed concern. Councilwoman Laura Lothian went to the scene to get info for residents.

You know they pump him full of uppers just to keep him on his feet

Quote from: DKG on May 19, 2024, 10:29:07 AMThe Heritage Foundation, a conservative think-tank, has filed an emergency motion in a Washington court seeking to accelerate the release of audio tapes of President Joe Biden's interview with special counsel Robert Hur, over which the White House recently asserted executive privilege.

The emergency motion, filed on May 17 at the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, seeks to modify the court's briefing schedule for three pending Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuits that seek the audio recordings of roughly five hours of interviews President Biden had with the special counsel in relation to a classified documents mishandling probe.

The motion seeks to speed up the court battle over the release of the tapes, with the Heritage Foundation arguing in the filing that President Biden's assertion of executive privilege over the tapes on Thursday adds urgency to the FOIA lawsuits and that the Department of Justice (DOJ) didn't need as much time to prepare its response to the FOIA requests as it previously claimed.

I hope they win because it is absolutely obvious Dems are hiding that testimony based solely upon political considerations.

California Republicans try to amend the sanctuary state laws to at least allow child rapists and murderers to get deported and to allow local police and sheriffs to make their own decisions...  Democrats simply cut his mic off to prevent him from speaking.

Lol!  The theft of traffic lights is so out of control in Oakland, CA that the city simply has stopped replacing them.  They gave up.  Drug addicts steal them to sell for scrap metal.

They always love to pretend to be moderate during election years but as soon as the election is over the vote far left the same as always.

EVs don't make sense financially or environmentally but that goes double for a cold country like Canada.  Look up how cold temps make batteries lose most of their range.

Quote from: Oliver the Second on May 15, 2024, 09:29:24 PMI'm surprised California doesn't put up toll booths at the border charging people fifty bucks to leave the state.

They sort of did.  They wanted to keep charging state taxes on people who left the state for five years after they left.  Federal court struck that down as unconstitutional, obviously.  It does show how badly the state is hit by rich people leaving because of high taxes.  Dems keep lying and denying but their actions prove otherwise.

Democrats were proposing raising the state gas tax from 30.51 to $1.01 per gallon but now the deficit is so high they have any to raise it to almost $2 per gallon.
