California is a Mess

Six-Figure California Superintendent Of Equity Living In Pennsylvania Resigns, December 16, 2021 By Tristan Justice

California’s Superintendent of Equity Daniel Lee resigned in disgrace Tuesday after Politico reported the six-figure-salaried education chief works as a life coach in Pennsylvania. California Republican Assemblyman Kevin Kiley pressed the state’s secretary of government operations Monday over whether Lee’s employment was legal. “Mr. Lee’s taxpayer salary is more than $160,000,” Kiley wrote. “In a recent interview, Amy Palmer, spokesperson for the California Government Operations Agency, stated that ‘State employment is for California residents unless the job requires a different location.’ She made it clear that there were few exceptions to this rule.”.........

The Death of California, Ben Shapiro December 16th, 2021

In “The Hunchback of Notre Dame,” Victor Hugo told the tale of Esmerelda, a gypsy dancer falsely accused of attempted murder, set to be hanged by an unjust state. Quasimodo, the titular hunchback, swings down from the cathedral of Notre Dame and saves her, carrying her off while crying “Sanctuary!” In fact, throughout European history, churches provided places of safe haven for accused criminals; the claim of “sanctuary” is made to this day by people seeking refuge from the law.

It is strange, however, to see the language of sanctuary adopted to protect precisely the sort of activity abhorred by anyone of religious bent: abortion. The secular sacrament of abortion has become so sacred, however, that the governor of California, Gavin Newsom, recently announced his intent to make his state the first abortion sanctuary in the nation. “We'll be a sanctuary,” Newsom announced. “We are looking at ways to support that inevitability and looking at ways to expand our protections.”.............

Seeing Beverly Hills Elites Arming Themselves in Fear Tells Us Something Big and Bad Is About to Happen, by Natural News December 16, 2021

Editor’s Commentary: When I first moved to California in 2007, I quickly learned the difference between neighborhoods. Beverly Hills lived up to its reputation for luxurious excess and an abundance of safety. I remember driving through in my beat up, out-of-place 1994 Jeep Cherokee and noticing the close inspections I’d get when passing law enforcement. One even made a u-turn and followed me for a while as I took in the scenery............... Things are bad. They’re going to get worse. When they do, it seems nearly unavoidable that this “paradise” will quickly become the epicenter of America’s complete degradation.

Los Angeles is the heart of west coast commerce. It’s the New York City on the left side of the country. If what I fear is happening does come to pass, LA will collapse and the whole state will quickly follow. Our radical leftist leaders are ill-equipped to handle a panicked exodus as the only thing keeping the state from collapsing financially is the heavy flow of tax dollars. States like California and New York may drive the economy for the nation, but they’re also the most susceptible to sudden changes..........
