“…What would happen if a conservative Republican became governor of deep blue California?
For the Republicans vying to replace Gov. Gavin Newsom, winning September’s recall race could prove easier than governing a state that’s become the cornerstone of America’s liberal agenda.
Any Republican who succeeds Newsom would be parachuting into hostile political territory. Democrats command two-thirds majorities in the state Legislature that allow them to override vetoes without a single Republican vote. The state’s biggest cities are run by Democrats. And all would be aiming to drive the new governor out of office in next year’s general election.
But a Republican executive could fight back through unilateral action, uprooting the state’s vast government bureaucracy, freezing spending and issuing sweeping edicts with a swipe of the pen.
Expect a year of political bedlam.
“It would be complete chaos, and government would come to a virtual standstill,” said Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg, a former state Senate leader who headed the Democratic caucus during Republican Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s tenure…”
Yes, I know the percentages are wrong. They still show the point.

CARNAGE: Scenes of Terrorism in Kabul, Plus Brutal Reactions Against Biden
It seems that the Biden Administration is unaware that Americans’ can access news, images, videos, and whatnot from sources outside government and national media control. The administration seems to think they can lie and fabricate with impunity.
Biden Mumbles, Stumbles Through Address on Afghanistan Terror Attacks
The president did not do well in his presser yesterday. He looks frail, he slurs and misspeaks, at one point he hung his head down on the podium while listening to a question, then he quickly bugged out of the news conference claiming he had other important meetings. Other important meetings apparently more important than explaining to Americans about 12 dead marines and the unfolding disaster in Afghanistan.

CNN Op-Ed: You Don’t Have a Constitutional Right to Refuse COVID Vaccine
Our media is an un-American disgrace. Focused on authoritarian minutia in a time of crisis. Many recent studies have shown significant issues with the Covid vaccines. Issues that the government and media are determined to hide or misrepresent to the public, in a mad rush to get everyone vaccinated. It is the weirdest thing I have ever seen.
Finally, for the mentally challenged SJW’s miseducated in our rotten schools:
The Right To Feel Safe Doesn’t Exist
Kurt Schlichter:
“…Rip those stars off your pathetic nostalgia costumes and resign. Quit. Tell that crusty Pinocchio in the White House and the faculty lounge Geppettos tugging his strings that you will have no more to do with his human centipede of failure in Kabul.
It’s not hard – your stars are right there, generals, right on the shoulders of those new uniforms you decided to adopt with the express purpose of evoking World War II and the memory of victory over a modern, peer-competitor military. Maybe, you thought, wearing winner’s gear would ease the pain of getting creamed by a bunch of Seventh Century throwbacks.
Yeah, we know your boss is a senile old fool with delusions of competence. His failure will be addressed at the ballot box. But your failure, generals and admirals, is something only you can address, at least until President DeSantis comes and separates the wheat from the chaff in the Pentagon.
Yeah, we know, you have to follow the orders of the civilian authorities – though not if it’s Trump, since he was not part of the in-crowd you aspired to join as adjunct military members. Your passive-aggressive mutiny against the guy the American people elected set back civil-military relations 250 years. You took the one institution most Americans still trusted and turned it into a roiling cauldron of hot garbage. And don’t try to hide behind “You gotta support the troops.” We do. But you suck, and we know you suck, and you know you suck…”
“…We hear an enormous amount these days about the problem of “Flight 93-ism” on the American right, but a great deal less about the concomitant panic that has led the Democratic Party to behave as if last year’s election represented its last gasp. Since Joe Biden took office in January, his party has been busy cramming everything it has ever wanted to do into a series of multi-trillion-dollar, must-pass bills; hawking a patently unconstitutional elections-supervision bill that would hand it full control of America’s democratic infrastructure; and engaging in a frenzied attempt to pack the Supreme Court, discredit the Senate, abolish the filibuster, and add new states to the union by simple majority vote. If you ask for an explanation of this preposterous behavior, you will be told that it is the product of the Republican Party’s dastardly scheme to implement Jim Eagle. If you look more closely, however, you’ll sense something else: fear — that, in a desperate attempt to remove President Trump from office, the Democrats tailored themselves a straitjacket from which they will struggle mightily to escape.
This fear is well-founded. Joe Biden is an aging, incompetent mediocrity whose main claim to fame, like the Delta Tau Chi fraternity from Animal House, is his long tradition of existence. Kamala Harris, his vice president, is a widely disliked authoritarian whose last run for the White House was stymied by her inability to garner support from more than 3 percent of the Democratic-primary electorate. If, prior to the disaster that was the last fortnight, the Democrats hadn’t sensed that they’d tied their party to a pair of losers, they sure as hell must have now…”
Lying, mismanagement, bad judgement, abuse of power for political or economic gain, corruption, and just plain stupidity.

On a par with other Democrats lately. Kills unarmed woman becomes hero for wacky left.
One benefit of Biden’s ineptness, is that his actions have a short life.
“…As at least 12 Americans were killed in a series of jihad suicide bombings in Kabul on Thursday, Nancy Pelosi (D-Smirnoff) kept her focus on what’s really important: Women’s Equality Day. Spectacularly out of touch, Pelosi fired off a series of tweets honoring women who fought for women’s rights, all while completely ignoring those who fought for freedom in Afghanistan. Hours after the Kabul bombings, Pelosi wrote: “More than a century ago, after generations of marching and fighting, courageous suffragists finally won full and equal citizenship and representation in our democracy with the adoption of the 19th Amendment. We honor those who moved our nation closer toward full equality for all.”…”
Nothing our jerkoff in chief does can erase the shame of his bad judgement and mismanagement.
This was a total fuckup. Americans know it.
The media can’t save him from the consequences of his own actions no matter what nonsense they concoct and repeat night after night, expert after expert.
Every single one of them needs to be publicly shamed. https://t.co/GJr1njsGQl
