CA Gov Newsom Shuts Down Majority of State’s Wineries for 4th of July – But Not His Own

He pays no political price for decisions like this. He has a super-majority in the state legislature and the almost full, fawning support of state media. Also, and this is the major point, California voters vote for this kind of crap over and over.

Of course you know the media reaction if LaJoie fails to win!

University of Massachusetts Nursing Dean Fired After Saying “Everyone’s Life Matters”

Jonathan Turley:

“…We have been discussing the growing fear of professors and students over the loss of free speech on campuses for years, but recently those concerns have been greatly magnified with the investigation or termination of professors for expressing opposing views about police abuse, Black Lives Matter movement or aspects of the protests following the killing of George Floyd.  There is a sense of a new orthodoxy that does not allow for dissenting voices as campaigns are launched to fire faculty who are denounced as insensitive or even racist for such criticism.  The most recent controversy involves the recently installed University of Massachusetts-Lowell Dean of Nursing Leslie Neal-Boylan. Dr. Neal-Boylan had only been in her position for a few months when she was fired.  The reason, according to many reports, is that she sent an email on June 2 to the Solomont School of Nursing on the recent anti-racism demonstrations across the country that include the words “everyone’s life matters.” As a blog dedicated to free speech, it has been difficult to keep up with the rising number of cases of the curtailment of speech or academic freedom on our campuses.  What is equally alarming is the relative silence of most faculty members as individual professors are publicly denounced by their universities, forced into retirement, or outright terminated for expressing dissenting views.  This case however raises an equally serious concern over the loss of due process for academics who find themselves the focus of a campaign for removal — or simply summary dismissal…”

JIM TREACHER:

“…In the six weeks since a multiracial group of Minnesota cops killed George Floyd, America has learned all sorts of things about what caused the crime. It wasn’t just those cops’ fault, you see. It wasn’t just the responsibility of the city of Minneapolis or even the state of Minnesota. As it turns out, every white person in the world is responsible for Floyd’s death. That’s why we now need to tear down any statue of any historical figure who was Caucasian, even the guy who signed the Emancipation Proclamation. That’s why any white person who voices a black character on a cartoon show needs to step aside now. That’s why we need to expunge that episode of The Golden Girls where they wore mud masks and the dumb one said, “We’re not really black.” All of those things are racist. All of those things made those cops kill that guy.

And we’re just getting started. Everything that white people enjoy is racist, because they’re white people. Even going to national parks is racist now, because most of the people who go to national parks are white.

Seriously.

Did you get all that? It’s racist to go to national parks, even though you’re not keeping anybody else from going there. It’s “self-segregation,” even though the parks are open to anyone who wants to go. And if you’re a white person, it’s your fault if people of color don’t want to go to the parks, especially if you’ve never done anything to hurt anybody. None of the black people interviewed by ABC News can point to any specific instance of racism, which is what’s so nefarious about white people. There’s nothing more racist than not being a racist.

The message is clear: Mother Nature is a white supremacist…”

Check the tweet that apparently shows the authors of the ABC news piece. These are the people our universities are turning out. Credentialed, but young, stupid and uneducated. They apparently view everything, everything through the lens of race. Twisted. Sick.

ABC apparently interviewed and hired these “journalists.” If they are free-lance, then some editor at ABC apparently thought the story was good stuff. What has happened to people?

US Intelligence Says Leak Of Russian Bounty Story Was ‘A Crime,’ Jeopardized Investigation

Who cares if it jeopardizes an investigation, if it temporarily hurts Trump. Every other priority in the world is secondary to hurting Trump, even if the hurt lasts only one or two news cycles before it is proven false.

Democrat. Journalism.

Chriss Street:

“…California’s super-majority Democrat legislature just passed, and the governor has signed, a “balanced budget” that looks like Orange County before it filed for bankruptcy.

It has been 25 years since “AA” credit-rated Orange County filed the world’s largest municipal bankruptcy, following a $2.6 billion loss involving a failed leveraged borrowing scheme and accounting fraud. But despite bankers, lawyers and accountants paying $750 million for allegedly aiding OC risky taking, “AA” credit-rated California has not filed audited financials and is using leveraged borrowing to offset its $60 billion shortfall.

Since about a third of the money lost in the OC bankruptcy involved federal grant program dollars, Congress tightened the A-128 Single Audit Act in 1996 to require all state and local recipients of federal grants to file an audited financial statement within six months of fiscal year detailing each “noncompliance” that could ‘have a direct and material effect on these individual Federal programs.”

The U.S. Office of Federal Assistance Management (OFAM) that provides administration and assurance of the financial integrity regarding about $750 billion in federal grants has mandated that each state and local grant recipient must submit an audited Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) within nine months of the last day of their fiscal year. Consequences for grant recipients that to comply with the OFAM mandate include withholding a percentage, suspending or terminating federal grant monies.

In spite of over one-third of California’s budget coming from the federal government, the state defaulted by not filing its Fiscal Year 2017-2018 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) until June 2019. Furthermore, California also chose to sell billions of dollars of municipal bonds in 2019 without an audited financial statement.

The California Auditor issued a 33-page warning after the 2017-2018 CAFR was filed about 90 days beyond the nine-month OFAM deadline stating: “Deficiencies in the State’s internal control system could adversely affect its ability to provide accurate financial information.” In spite of the federal mandate and State Auditor warnings, California has been in default since March 31 for not filing its 2018-2019 CAFR on time.

California’s $202.1 billion budget that began on July 1, 2020 relies on spending $8.8 billion in a so-called “rainy-day fund” and cutting spending by $11.1 billion, including $2.8 billion in savings by slashing state worker salaries by 10 percent. But the California State Controllers’ monthly ‘General Fund’ report for May indicated that the state can internally fund its budget shortfall from $59.7 billion in “Borrowable Resources”.

California’s revenue collapse means that about 40 percent of its 2020-2021 state budget and “Borrowable Resources” are forecast to come from federal grants. Given the state has been in default since March 31 for not filing its 2018-2019 CAFR, up to $80 billion of federal grant funds is at risk from being withheld, suspended, or terminated.

Gov. Gavin Newsom seemed optimistic that the state’s economy and tax revenues would continue recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic when he signed California’s “balanced budget” on June 29^th. But with the number of new cases rising, Newsom on July 1^st ordered 19 counties to close all bars and ban indoor operations for all restaurants, wineries and tasting rooms, movie theaters, family entertainment centers, zoos and museums, and cardrooms for a minimum of three weeks…”

“…The coronavirus surge is real, and it’s everywhere” says Axios and most of the DNC media.

Time to panic. They pile on, “The coronavirus pandemic is getting dramatically worse in almost every corner of the U.S.”

We are told new cases are rising by double-digit percentages, including: “The number of people hospitalized with coronavirus.” Hospitalized with or from coronavirus? Is this really a surge or simply fear-mongering fake news?

Texas features prominently in the surge scare. Coincidently Texas is a red state that if flipped to blue would prevent a Republican from ever winning the White House for the foreseeable future. Everything is bigger in Texas, including the Chinese coronavirus surge.

A Texas hospital CEO lets the fake news cat out of the bag.

Health officials in Texas are logging every single COVID-19-positive hospital patient in the state as a COVID-19 hospitalization, even if the patients themselves are admitted seeking treatment for something other than the coronavirus.

Most hospitals require a COVID test before elective surgery. This means that patients coming to the hospital for a non-COVID reason are tested for COVID, and if positive are being counted as a “COVID hospitalization.” If a patient goes to the hospital for a new hip or cataract surgery, and happens to test positive for COVID, they are counted as a COVID hospitalization.

Just like inflated death counts, there is a big difference between dying or being hospitalized due to coronavirus or with coronavirus. George Floyd tested positive for COVID but no one is attributing his death in Minneapolis to COVID. Yet that is how hospitalizations are being counted, leading to this so-called surge in cases.

This surge hit the news about two weeks ago, after the BLM protests and riots peaked and agitators were starting to be arrested. Is this the latest chapter in the ongoing saga to beat on Trump and interfere in the upcoming presidential election?

States experiencing this surge began reopening two months ago, including Florida, Texas, and Arizona. With a coronavirus incubation period of 5-6 days, according to the World Health Organization, any surge due to reopening should have occurred a week or two after states reopened, not two months later.

Not mentioned are the BLM protests, all within the past month. Mass gatherings in many U.S. cities, without masks or social distancing, everything the basketball player and scarf queen warned against, are far more likely the cause of increasing positive tests.

The CDC director recommended protesters get tested for COVID and likely many did, driving up the case numbers or so-called surge. Most infected young people are asymptomatic, especially teenagers where about 80 percent of those infected show no symptoms.

It’s young people out protesting, not senior citizens. Ignoring distancing and mask recommendations, many get infected, then tested, and voila, we see a surge in cases. Don’t forget the George Floyd funeral in Houston with over 6,300 attendees and over 60,000 marching, without distancing. Could this have contributed to the Texas surge?…”
