CA Dems Paint Rosy Picture of Failing California

  The future of California is not looking as rosy as the state's Democrat Party politicians want us to believe. Whenever challenged on the stability of his economy, Gov.

Why Voters Need to Care About More Water Bonds on June/Nov CA Ballots

Droughts are naturally occurring; water shortages are government-created and political.

Pardon Me, Governor Brown

Numbers Show The Deck is Stacked for Republicans in California’s Legislature

  Elected Republicans represent nearly a third of California’s legislators, but are only getting 18 percent of their bills passed, for eventual consideration by Gov. Jerry Brown.

Jerry Brown’s California: Devastation, Plunder, Economic Failure

Jerry Brown is the self-anointed Savior of the Planet while his decades-long policies destroy the once-Golden State. People like me have been explaining for many years that California is an example of leftist policies to avoid, and the poster child state of what not to do unless state suicide is the goal. California has become the Greece of the …

Judge Smacks Down CA Attorney General For “Misleading” Ballot Initiative Language

In a stunning court rebuke of the state Attorney General’s Office, a Sacramento Superior Court Judge announced Friday that Xavier Becerra's title and summary for the Repeal of the Gas Tax initiative is "misleading and is likely to create prejudice against the measure"— and that he'd "do a rewrite himself" to make it clear the …
