Criminal illegals and gang members claiming fear of torture or assassination if returned
to their country have a new, very LARGE, problem. Reportedly probable deportation to
South Sudan ! ! ! ! .
A country having lets say, a low tolerance of criminal behavior. {look it up}
.
OR, they could get a free plane ticket and cash to self deport.

Am incredibly impressed by work arounds Trump administration comes up with.
On a calm summer evening when it’s quiet, can almost hear knickers of hate
Trump progressive liberals twisting, severely restricting blood flow.
IT’S GLORIOUS ! ! ! !

Mamdani, the new face of the Democrat party.
This was a huge tactical error.
The Democrats are finally admitting who they really are!
I just read a long article about this radical kook in the WSJ, and not once did they mention the fact that he hates Jews. Weird.
If its not proven or he never said he does,then it is slander to say something that seems serious to the race baiters, and say it about him on a public forum.Remember the Liberace slander case,although he was gay,he never said he was ands there was no proof,so he won a slander liable case against the Daily Mirror in 1959 when they stated in an article that he was gay.He was still in the closet.
Warren Buffet just donated another $6 billion to his pals charitable foundations. That brings his lifetime donations to these foundations to near $60 billion.
While philanthropy plays a vital role in society, understanding the public cost of these deductions is important. Some estimates are that Warren Buffet has effectively evaded pay almost $30 Billion in taxes. Multiply this by the several hundred or so Billionaires that are using the same strategy and the
amount of taxes legally evaded is staggering
Ask yourself “Is that fair to the average American taxpayer” … shouldn’t the tax system be changed? Wonder if Congress will ever address this or are they afraid of the backlash from the Billionaire Cabal?

nobody cares
More Don Quixote worries,or is it jealousy?
Evaded? Our kept what was earned and worked for.
If you think that’s wrong, and don’t agree that what one works for and earns belongs to them, then maybe a move to a socialist/ communist country where most everything one earns goes to the government would fit you better.
A huge banner in Venice had a picture of Jeff Bezos with the caption “If you can rent Venice for your wedding, you can pay more taxes.”

Apparently the swamp known as congress are still influenced by lobbyists and
campaign contributions to give blue collar employers large numbers of foreign workers.
Unemployment stands at 4.2%. U3 on https://tinyurl.com/3tzxz94u

“Republicans on the House Appropriations Committee joined Democrats in
approving a plan that will allow United States businesses to import vastly more
foreign workers for blue-collar American jobs in construction, landscaping,
dairy farms, and carnivals, among other industries.”

Seems to me American would be better served expanding blue collar training
programs. ETEC program at LMC (Los Medanos JC) is a model that should
be what congress should make a priority instead of taking the easier softer
way of importing workers. Then again it would crimp their time being wined
and dined by lobbyists and corporations. Partial solution, TERM LIMITS.
.
My opinion, congress should be doing everything possible to get unemployment
below 3%. In doing so, supply and demand regulates wages rather than
politicians arbitrary setting wage rates, thereby sabotaging incentive for
employees to gain skills in order to raise their standard of living.
Came across this on Reddit, r/electricians,
‘Leaving California‘

Last couple decades or so prior to retirement worked with half a dozen engineers,
who wrote code, trouble shoot and we did in-house replacement of older equipment.
One in particular was both a mechanical and electrical engineer who was
highly proficient in writing code for Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) an
Incredible guy to work with.
.
He had signed contract before moving to South Carolina and is incredibly
happy there. Another traveled the world specializing in Large project startups,
who commuted in from his Florida home base. It’s all about having a skill set
that’s in demand. Of those six, I believe five of them moved out of California.

CA democrats are continually driving businesses out of California, would
not be surprised when cumulative effects of their uninformed chaotic
brain farts and their unelected bureaucratic sycophants eventually cause
a pronounced economic downturn.

Relocating state resources and tax payer dollars to accommodate and
support non citizens whose skill sets and education are likely sub standard
for the most part.
.
There is an unstated goal, a plan to increase state’s headcount for upcoming
Census, non citizens are included in the Census count. A way to increase
both federal dollars tothe state and increase number democrat of seats
in House of Representatives in a long planned attempt to gain an
unbreakable majority lock on control of the U.S. House of Representatives
that could last for decades.

democrats in control, there is a chance, long term, entire nation could turn into
a copy of California.
Texted URL to engineer now in South Carolina, he texted back,
“I have absolutely no regrets. Love the Charleston, NC area.”
New York City voters stab Jewish Democrats in the back! (and it serves them right!).

“In choosing Mamdani as their candidate for mayor, Democrats in America’s most Jewish city have nominated an outspoken critic of Israel, alarming some in New York’s Jewish community and signaling a sea change in the priorities of one of the party’s most loyal voting groups”

I love how you cherry picked one line from the article and left out that the Jewish guy also running for mayor endorsed Mamdani
It wasn’t cherry picking.
I had not heard of the “Jewish Guy” whose name I assume you do not know either.
He’s obviously just another political whore like Jerry Nadler & Chuck Schumer who fell all over themselves scrambling to support Mandani when it looks like he will be the winner.
Like I stated earlier….
“Jewish Democrats stabbed in the back! (and it serves them right!)”.

I wonder if New York’s self hating Jewish Democrats will ever decide if it’s more important to be a deranged left wing politically correct liberal or to be a Jew who is proud of their heritage & religion with a love for their people.
I found it.
Brad Lander, he and Mamdani cross endorsed each other because their most important goal is to beat Cuomo.
I missed that the first time around (didn’t really care enough to read the whole article).
Shame on me.
New York City Democrats have obviously learned nothing from the 2013 failed New York City mayoral bid of disgraced former Congressman Anthony Weiner and the 2013 failed New York City Comptroller bid of disgraced former Governor Elliot Spitzer. Fast forward to 2025, and New York City Democrats run disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo for Mayor of New York City. New York City residents are getting the candidates Democratic Party voters have voted for because the Democratic Party keeps running disgraced former politicians as candidates. With current Mayor Eric Adams and former Governor Andrew Cuomo remaining on the general election ballot as Independent and Third-Party candidates, we’ll have to wait and see how many votes they and Republican Curtis Sliwa can pull away from Zohran Mamdani. Ranked Choice Voting often results in a surprise candidate winning an election. That’s how Jean Quan became the Mayor of Oakland.
Are you sure? I heard his name was Clancy Patrick O’Bannion……
Hardly. People are tired of establishment candidates. Cuomo? Really? There was no better candidate than that for the Dems? No lessons learned from trying to push Kamala Harris on voters?

Its very sad but the extrimists running almost everything in this State are out of control! California has become the BOHICA state, That we endure because we have ties here. I can’t take much more. But where to go? Some of theser fools are leaving and screwing up anyplace I might want to go!
Cowards run, stay here and fight…VOTE!!!!
I agree, we made it this far. Keep fighting, we need everyone

President Trump is using his “Magic Wand”, turning around 12 years of
gross incompetence, and he has been in office for only 161 days.
democrats fasten your seat belts, imagine what he will do for the country
in his remaining 934 days.
“Sanctuary policies were the driving cause of the violence, chaos, and attacks
on law enforcement that Americans recently witnessed in Los Angeles.
Jurisdictions like Los Angeles that flout federal law by prioritizing illegal aliens
over American citizens are undermining law enforcement at every level –
it ends under President Trump.”
