$3.2 Billion Shipyard that was slated for Solano county, NOPE, going to Texas.
Wise move, considering how badly California democrat politicians and their
green police treat businesses.
.
Any business needs to be able to make business plans and to be able to do
so there needs to be political stability and regulatory certainty, neither of
which has existed in California in decades. They’ve forced refineries to close.
.
CoCo county, the state and their unelected green police minions drove a
profitable steel mill, the ONLY mill, west of the Mississippi producing tin plate
product for canning industry to close. In case you were wondering why price
of canned products increased.

The sneaky billionaires who tippy-toed into Fairfield, Solano Co in the middle of the night, buying up land at premium prices, and did it with so much stealth it took a couple years to buy up a dominant amount of land… thousands of acres along the Big River…. HA HA HA
Up jumped one billionaire who took a second look at the Newsom-land Tax State.— and the tippy-toed night raiders… got a few-billion-dollar snip in their knickers! OUCH! Serves them right.

What a freaking surprise, – – – – NOT ! ! ! !
.
Taco Bell explosive diarrhea traced to lettuce.
.
In a statement posted Friday, Taylor Farms said,
“Based on information provided yesterday by the FDA,
Taylor Farms de Mexico is voluntarily removing all iceberg
lettuce sourced from central Mexico.”
.
Cyclospora is a MICROSCOPIC food borne parasite primarily transmitted
through fecal oral route.   Food becomes contaminated when an infected
person with poor hand hygiene handles it.
.
Central Mexico where hand washing with soap, maybe not so much.
.
Once again, grow a garden and you prepare what you eat.
An if packaging says MEXICO, – – – – – NEVER BUY IT.

FDA now unsure

Olive Garden: where verifying your ID for the unlimited pasta pass is a stricter process than voting in U.S. elections…

@Bayslashers
Same at ACE Hardware and mulch. Just bringing your receipt with you to pick up your mulch order isn’t good enough; you have to show I.D. But getting your pasta and mulch is way more important than voting for the President of the United States.

⚠️ NEIGHBORHOOD ALERT: High Bills & Environmental Risks Hit Our County!
Dear Claycord Neighbors,
Are you tired of paying more than your fair share while local bureaucracies ignore our community’s best interests? Two major regional issues are hitting us right now, and it is time to make some noise.

🚨 1. The Pittsburg Data Center: Threatening Our Regional Water & Air
The city of Pittsburg is moving forward with a massive tech data center on the old Delta View Golf Course (West Leland Rd). Even if you live 15+ miles away, this affects YOU:

  • Water Risk: The site sits directly adjacent to the open-air Contra Costa Canal—a vital artery for our county’s drinking water.
  • Air Pollution: The project includes 37 industrial diesel backup generators running near local homes and schools.
  • Lost Land: 76 acres of open land are being handed over to big tech instead of being used for parks or residential housing for local families.

🚽 2. The Central San “Unfair Flush” Scheme
Have you looked at your property tax bill lately? The Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (Central San) charges a flat fee of over $900 per year for sewer services.

  • The Inequity: A single person living conservatively pays the exact same amount as a house next door with 8 people flushing all day long!
  • The Lazy Bureaucracy: Many cities across the country use “Winter Average Billing” to fairly tie sewer costs to actual water consumption. Central San refuses to do this for residents simply because a flat tax fee is easier for them to collect.
  • The Double Standard: Central San already charges commercial businesses based on water usage because they know it’s the fair way to do it. Why are residential homeowners being penalized?

🔥 HOW TO TAKE ACTION TODAY:

  1. Sign the Petition: Search Change.org for “Stop the Pittsburg Data Center” and add your voice. Regional water security affects the whole county!
  2. Speak Out to Central San: Contact the Central San Board of Directors. Demand a fair, water-usage-based tiered billing system for residential properties.
  3. Spread the Word: Share this information with friends and family in neighboring towns. We share the same water district, and we need to stand together.

Our community, our water, our wallets. Let’s protect them

“…the open-air Contra Costa Canal...”
Which will likely be undergrounded into a pipeline.
.
“…37 industrial diesel backup generators…”
Which would only run during a power outage.
With California’s clean air regulations on generators, do not pose a hazard. 
.
As to rest of it, sounds much like anti fracking hysteria that was created by a
mid eastern oil producing country.
.
Stop and THINK,
communist china stands the most to gain by data centers being delayed
or cancelled so they can get an advantage over America OR a housing
developer and unions coveting land so they can turn a profit.
.
IF data center is such a problem consider the following,
.
“If you want to understand any problem in America,
you need to look at who profits from that problem,
not at who suffers from that problem.”

democrat party – – – – – couldn’t be bothered to run an in depth background check.
platner drops out, and this is what they pick to represent democrats of Maine.
.
What they picked is an insult to democrat voters of Maine,
Transgender Maine Democrat Senate Candidate Claims

An in the lower part of the North East commie corridor,
.
“…if a private store in New York City is put out of business by one of the
government-run grocery stores in the city, “then maybe they shouldn’t
have been in that business in the first place.”
.
“…nobody has the right to double-digit returns on their investment and
“That’s not in the Constitution.”
.
New Yorkers collected $2.6 billion in welfare cash payments last year, city data shows’
“The 71% increase since 2022…”
.
This democrat socialists of America (DSA) fantasy logic reminds one of a ten
year old child explaining their view of how world should work. It’s going to implode.
Just as democrat politicians taking direction from unions are destroying California.
.
The problem with socialism is that you eventually
run out of other peoples’ money”

After I managed to stop laughing I gave it some serious thought…. it could be diverticulitis, or it could be a recurring hemorrhoid…. or he could just be nuts (or all 3).

In the if it’s Monday it’s about goofy Maine . . . . .
Turns out the little thing wrote a “memoir”,
.
A transgender Democrat vying to be the Maine senator was caught using an
exceptionally flattering AI image of herself to promote her memoir
.
Compare reality with AI image . . .

What’s the deal with Maine democrats, bad water, air filters not being changed
often enough ? ? ? ?

Would be interesting to get to the bottom of, from where in world financing
for anti data centers is coming from. My guess is communist china

I think a lot of anti-data centers is coming from where they are putting many of them. In the center of neighborhoods…like Pittsburg. This is to take advantage of power and water infrastructure that is already there. But it won’t be enough so a new power plant and water source will be needed, and where there simply isn’t enough power…it will take 10-30 years for power plants and source material (gas wells and lines) to be built. In the mean time… Meta, Amazon, etc etc refuse to wait for that infrastructure, and are in the works, as we speak to develop mini-nuclear hubs (also in the middle of neighborhoods)… and @Original G, I love the little bit of AI that I depend on…. but the real issue is simply that BIG DATA isn’t coordinated with power/water, etc in most circumstances. SO they bully and buy their way in! City parks are being sold–to build data centers… Maybe its OK to sell Solano Co Fairgrounds to build Data Center. Or the Cow Palace? Is PG&E putting very important maintenance etc aside for Microsoft? Who can say what $$$ changed hands? PG&E is heavily upgrading its grid infrastructure specifically for Microsoft’s new data center campus in San Jose. Rather than building an entirely new generation “power plant” somewhere out in the boonies… PG&E is installing substantial high-voltage transmission lines and substation upgrades… Power Towers…coming to a neighborhood near you…… A Santa Ana-based company named Global Stack LLC is targeting public land and fairgrounds across California for “edge” data centers. Their pitch includes a small 8-10 megawatt data center, a multi-level parking garage, and a helicopter landing pad.(The Vallejo Sun)
They are specifically targeting the Cow Palace in Daly City and other fairgrounds like the San Mateo County Event Center, pitching the developments as “blackout-proof” community infrastructure. Blackout-proof for them, maybe. How about us? We already can’t claim to be black-out proof.

wow, throw everything at the wall and see what sticks – – – – –
.
Pittsburg location, as I’ve posted twice already, NO grid infrastructure
upgrade is needed.
.
What is unique about Pittsburg site is it’s being next to a high voltage
transmission corridor. Use mouse to zoom out, shows a SEVEN
existing high power transmission line corridor, next to DATA CENTER site.
Cost to connect up will be minimal.
.
For so much negativity about data centers being pushed out across America,
there has to be big money behind the effort. Amount of coordination, to me
indicates a state actor. Who stands to gain the most by delaying America’s
roll out of data centers, think Communist China.
.
Need to start looking for Chinese BOT activity, and paid posters.
.
Why would the Governor of “commie corridor” New York sign an executive
order banning data centers for a year. Kinda falls inline with what we’ve
been seeing out of that area, socialist / communist leanings
.
An without paragraph breaks, reminds me of AI

Here IT is back in 2025, first 30 seconds, threatens a cop,
obvious problems – – – – – and needs help.
.
Can only hope name / names have been added to Federal gun background
check no buy list and has NO access, to any weapons. Hope Florida DA and
Courts mandate needed mental health services.

American AI code has watermarks embedded, Federal government is alleging
code has been lifted and used by Communist China.
Plus they are actively courting companies to use their AI products.
.
An what better way to gain advantage than to gin up an anti Data Center
movement similar to Anti Fracking movement,
‘The Matt Damon movie that blasts fracking was partly funded by Abu Dhabi
.
Anti Data Centers movement will eventually be found to have been financed
by communist china, to gain the advantage over America.
.
communist china is adept at manipulating American liberals.

I would advise Trump to not even wear a watch today.
I can just imagine some Socialist Dem asking him “what time is it?” at the most inappropriate moment.

Governor Newsom, who has not been charged with a crime, has hired lawyer Abbe Lowell.
To do what?
California is a sanctuary city, so why would he need a lawyer anyway?
Let’s face it, after the many shady deals he’s been involved in, he’s never been charged with anything. And likely never will be.
He’s Teflon, and knows it.
So why the lawyer?
He never bets (or buys houses) with his own money, so who is paying for it?

“Please let this statement serve to represent, until further notice, that from this point forth, any and all damages done to Ships, Cargo, or anything related thereto, will be paid for by Iranian Money that the United States has in its possession, and controls. These damages may be very substantial but, nevertheless, this is the fair and equitable thing to do. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

White House Correspondents Dinner is supposed to start in a few minutes.
I bet Trump’s speech will be epic!

Meh….
