As I have reported several times and now acknowledged by the Governor of California...Gavin and his wife are under federal investigation... what he failed to tell you... This began during the Biden Admin. Kind of a big detail.

Whatever is going on in the world, Thomas Sowell always got there first and summed it up perfectly.

They think your money is theirs
Brad, a 5% tax on Elon's trillion net worth would literally pay for free college and trade school for every American.
And with the market's growth, he still would be worth over a trillion dollars!
You don't think that's worth it?
Community note
5% of $1.2T is $60b. 8m students in BA/BS programs on average pay over $20k/yr, or ~$160b/yr for BA/BS degrees only.
That tax could not cover even half of only US bachelor degree costs for just 1 year, excluding grad, ass., or trade degrees totaling another ~10m students.

82 years ago my grandfather killed Nazis on the shores of Normandy.
Never forget D-Day.

We had a black mayor over fifty years ago and he was mayor for twenty years 73 to 93. Can you get past the race hustler and start judging people on performance

Voltaire passed away today in 1778.
There are two quotes of his I always come back to:
"I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
and
“Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.”
Community note
The first quote is not by Voltaire. It was created by Evelyn Beatrice Hall in 1906 to summarize his philosophy. The second quote is a variation of Voltaire's 1765 words which referred to committing injustices rather than atrocities.

When American POWs tried to sneak her notes with their personal information to tell their families they were still alive, she gave them to the North Vietnamese. Some of them were beaten to death. You are both commies and you can both fuck off.

Angelenos need leaders willing to stand up and speak out.
Jane has never been afraid to do either

I remember when Newt Gingrich backed Megyn Kelly into a corner, and asked her to repeat one simple phrase:
"Bill Clinton sexual predator"
She refused.
Because she was an establishment puppet then - and she remains an establishment puppet today 💁🏻♀️

Many people may forget -
Or are simply unaware
But I haven’t, I’ve never liked her or cared for her establishment takes.
Megyn Kelly has been part of a network railing against President Trump for a decade.
Newt Gingrich called her out for it 2016 when she refused to label Bill Clinton a sexual predator on air - yet had no problem saying it about candidate Trump
The temporal context is important: this was shortly after the Billy Bush, grab em by the box, “October Surprise” audio was released.
The deep state establishment believed that was the end of Trump’s campaign - they were wrong.
Notice Kelly citing polls re women hurting Trumps odds, the same as she’s doing now w young men heading into midterms.
Kelly did her best to hurt Trump through his entire campaign, siding w, and acting in conjunction w, the deep state establishment.
She’s never changed.
She’s executing the same playbook now.

On our way to Minnesota where fraudsters are about to “lear” a hard lesson on stealing from the American taxpayer.

Regardless of the outcome of Spencer Pratt’s race, what he’s doing is authentically American. See a problem, become a part of the solution. His campaign ads are unconventional, but that’s the point; it’s refreshing. Instead of speaking like a career politician, he’s speaking as an American who sees and deeply understands how fragile the simple things in life are when leadership fails.
This is what this country is all about. Citizens willing to step into the political arena, unafraid, and challenge a failing system, much like the one that has destroyed Los Angeles. I hope moments like this inspire more Americans to throw their names into the mix, run for office, get involved and stand up for what makes this country exceptional.

No one is steering this campaign except me!
This is such lazy reporting - campaign treasurers don’t steer campaigns, they handle compliance. Briana Bilbray (who is not even a Republican by the way!) is tasked with keeping my campaign compliant with all the insane forms City of LA requires! Grow up, people.

Actually, our sources are:
• A former high-ranking California prison official
• Federal prosecutors, who are pursuing charges against a prisoner for grooming a minor through his state-issued tablet
• A dozen current inmates who are enjoying your "porn for prisoners" program
This is flat-out FALSE.
This MAGA nonprofit provides ZERO evidence for its outrageous claims.
Their “sources”? Convicted murderers and a random guy who doesn’t even live in California.
FACT: Prison tablets DO NOT provide open internet access.
FACT: Communications are monitored, recorded, searchable, and investigated.
FACT: These tablets are are used for education, rehabilitation, family communication, and reentry support proven to reduce crime — conveniently omitted from this propaganda post.

Wow, I actually found it!
Of all the Scott Adams clips ... this is the one that means the most to me, personally.
This was the moment, during the initial COVID lockdown days, that I decided to cancel my low-grade depression and feeling like "I'm trapped," and replace it with "come out of this stronger, not weaker."
(I started writing affirmations shortly after this, and by the time a year had passed, I'd changed career paths, gotten three promotions, and was living in a new house. It worked, Scott. It worked.)
