The following barely touches the surface of all that’s wrong with California. It would take a thousand pages to list the mess and corruption of the state.
Yes, gas is high, and California is the winner in that price category. Some things cost more than we like. But we were being told it’s the worst it’s ever been. Under Biden gas hit over $5 across the nation and inflation reached over 9%. Memories are short.
California has all its glaring ugliness staring right at us. And yet way too many of her “voters” ignore the obvious. They are determined to hang tough with the failed office holders of this state who are solely responsible for driving us into the cesspool of despair. I don’t understand why they imagine doing the same thing over and over again and continue soaking our feet in the septic tank.
California is the petri dish for stupid. It produced Adam Schiff, Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsom, Eric Swalwell. And even though I think Nancy Pelosi is about as corrupt as they come, I give her kudos. She’s shrewder and more cunning than all the above combined. Don’t like it, but it’s a fact.
I don’t need to state the political affiliation of the two men who ran for governor of California.
One has been in government for too long already and has still shown to have accomplished nothing. He made no effort to run a campaign because in his mind California had already redistricted the state in his favor, had cheating dialed in and knew there’d be enough Californians whose gray matter doesn’t care. They are content to continue with the same policies of corruption that keep his party in office. And most are do so purely out of hate for the current president. Makes sense. Not.
This political inept puppet is perfectly happy using our money to pay for people who don’t belong here. Very pleased to be importing oil from foreign countries and is proud California gas is the highest in the country. Has no problem having our streets look like they belong to the poorest nations in the world while taking place in the wealthiest nation on the planet.
Too many voters, despite having the ability to control their minds, don’t. Their brains can’t decipher what their eyes see and allow their “feelings” to be their guiding light.
The other candidate ran a hard campaign against an entrenched political army. He was up against a machine that passes laws to fine and arrest those who expose their corruption. Not fix anything, just shut people down who get too close to the truth.
The other candidate, with a British accent, wanted to eliminate state income tax on the first $150,000 earned. Reduce utility bills by half. Stop with all the massive over regulation. Get gas back to a normal $3 a gallon (which in my day would have seemed insanely high but is just below what the rest of the country is paying today). Get all the building regulations back under control, reduce all the fees and stop with the outrageous delays. Pacific Palisades, still a permitting nightmare after two years.
He also promised to go after the homeless campgrounds on our streets. Pay attention to the wasted spending and stealing. To be more prudent and efficient with homeless dollars for more sober living homes and mental treatment.
He was hoping to make sure students learn how to read. Less than 50% of high school students in the state can read proficiently. Get rid of teachers who can’t teach.
Get back to producing our own oil and gas. Make California self-sufficient again. What the heck are we doing bringing oil here by ship from other corrupt governments? What anti climate protection nonsense.
Stop paying illegals with our money for health care. End the complete nonsense of a sanctuary state. Go after the criminals and build the prisons to hold them. All the above are pure common-sense ideas. And the other candidate – the one who won – was against them all.
How long can California put up with all the irresponsible and dangerous policies? Keep the money earners from fleeing the state? The money they want to steal is driving out the back door in U-Hauls leaving scratch marks.
Californian politicians are operating on a very small percentage of their brains. They use band-aids to try and heal the deep wounds they caused.
In the meantime, the Kings of California will be enjoying themselves marching in another nonsensical No Kings rally. Laughing how easy it is to control their serfs to do their bidding.
More Tomorrow

Great article but the real reason Hilton didn’t sweep the seat are non voters and worse, those well-meaning but ignorant conservatives who split the vote in the primaries. Had all of us with common sense banded together behind Hilton, he would’ve taken the seat easily.
