I’m sorry you have to live there. The handwriting was on the wall as far back as the 1950’s, but when the state was gerrymandered in the ‘70’s and ‘80’s it became impossible for “the people” to do anything about it. We left almost 20 years ago and the only reason we look back is in behalf of our daughter in Redding who also has to live there. There are pockets of reasonableness, but you’re right. The state is a lost cause. What a waste of God’s natural beauty! Praying for you all.
The 20MM-30MM recent crimigrants have been disbursed everywhere. Everywhere.
Rumor has it they've been told they can keep what they take. That would be your stuff.
I live rural as well, I've been shoring-up defenses and getting ready. Now is a great time to make a trip to the neighbors to exchange ideas. One idea is the notion of "mutual aid".
It works like a force-multiplier, a neighborhood banding together for a friend in need. If thugs are banging on your door, others have them in their sights. No worse place to be for the door bangers.
Roger that I think everyone with a brain knows that this weekend is going to be insane cuz demoncrats are preparing for what we been ready for‼️‼️‼️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸✝️✝️✝️
I know you, you're my neighbor bubba with the washing machine yard ornament you stole from my yard! Don't even think of stealing my 65 Fairlane up on blocks by the road, that's got my mailbox mounted on it! (ツ)
I know how much of a heart breaker this all is. But it's not just California. NYC is even worse. When mayor Giuliani made NYC the safest major city in America, look at how short of time it took to crash it all back down. The very next mayor. I don't care what political party they are. When the Governor of NY, tells Republicans to leave NY and move to Florida, this is a real problem; that she would even have the guts to say such a thing. What would she do if they did? Her entire tax base would be gone. I don't believe for a second NY actually voted her in. She came from Buffalo: No where.
And look at Washington DC, once the brightest star in our country, go from that to the murder capital of the world, and no one even blushes. Tourism is down because people are afraid to come here, and L.A. is burning as we speak. Who can blame them?
Meanwhile, Moscow! Of all places, is the cleanest, safest city in the world, and has 12 million people in it. You can easily walk its streets, in every neighborhood at night in complete safety. It's subways are not covered in graffiti, they're works of art. Complete with portraits on the walls. And they're spotlessly clean. You can eat off the floors in the subway. Can you even imagine that? And this is in Russia? WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?
When I served in the Army in 1975, and was much younger, I took my motorcycle coast to coast 6 times here in America. And explored everywhere I went and always felt safe. Even in South L.A.. Black people always cheerfully gave me directions, even in Baltimore and in Harlem. People in Alabama were so friendly, they would offer me dinner and a bed for the night, and you felt bad if you said no. Maybe they were just happy for the company, I don't know. But the whole United States was like this and we were all a family. What happened??? Who the hell is responsible for this? And it has to be somebody, or somebody's. Who got rich off of doing this to our country? SOMEBODY DID!
I am 68 years old this August, and the United States isn't even recognizable to me anymore. So much so, I'm rooting for Russia in the war. Our Government is the most corrupt in the world. You can't even trust the FBI anymore. If that's progress, NO THANK YOU! What a F_ ing shame.
Well said about a decade younger and still it’s not the same as it used to be and I grew up in New Orleans when we were the murder capital years in a row but I was 10 rollerskating through the city at Mardi Gras now I live away from the city and I don’t think about going there anymore! So sick of hearing about politicians are trying to destroy our country and rino are worse like cassidy. Finally a President who is putting Americans first and they are fighting for criminals and their stealing of our tax dollars should have gallows built in front of every capitol building and hang traitor’s
All true. I don’t understand why people keep voting for this craziness. I don’t understand why they haven’t recalled Bass. Deplorable leadership. They have destroyed the state.
They don't keep voting for this craziness, it's foisted on us by stealing elections. When Gruesome had a recall election about 2 yrs ago, 93% of Californians voted to recall him. I got this info from 2 separate sources, both of whom worked the election and counted the votes themselves. They both lived in different areas of CA. Last time I voted there I saw cheating myself. Dems have a serious grip on the state. However, looks like Trump is doing something about it, you may want to read this very short summation of what's really going on there right now:
It's bewildering that most Americans know that the Drats stole the Biden/Trump election but then they are perpetually saying, "you get what you vote for" and can't seem to understand that other elections can be rigged as well. Once the voter fraud is entrenched in a state - it's permanent.
I saw how the Drats rigged the AZ gubernatorial election in AZ in 2022 and it was not via the usual methods. It was very clever. Americans are pathetically stupid on the topic of voter fraud. The Drats can organize and fund riots across the nation but Americans refuse to believe that election results can be rigged too INCLUDING RUCKER!!!
EXCELLENT point! And good job of observation on your part. 4 yrs ago I went to a townhall meeting re: voting machines. The head of the town's election committee explained to us that there is NO way these machines can cheat. (He went to great pains to brainwash me on this exact point a few months before when I was at another townhall meeting, asking questions. He spent several hours trying to tell me they couldn't cheat.) Anyway, at this particular meeting, others were asking questions too and not buying what he was selling. Finally, he brought up something about the machines that gave me a clue that YES cheating can be done, when he told us that the machines were connected to the internet. I asked him if they're connected to the internet, can't someone intervene and change the votes. There was stunned silence, then he finally admitted that yes the machines can cheat. There are places i can't go to in that town any more because I asked that question. I find that interesting and wonder how many people are in on this? Glad I left that town and moved to next county where 97% voted for Trump in 2020 and probably even more voted for him in 2024.
Like everything else, if you don't put in the time and energy to maintain it, it eventually turns to scrap and dust. Cally is the only state in the lower 48 I have not visited. We were planning to visit this month as my wife's daughter lives there but some medical issues cropped up.
Do you need a passport to enter? Proof of mRNA poison injections? An "I Love Liberals" bumper sticker? Maybe be a card carrying member of the US Socialist Party? Have a copy of "Rules For Radicals"? Suscribe to the NYT and the Washy Compost? Just wondering.
I am a fourth generation Californian on my mother's side. Both of my parents were born in LA. My wife is a fifth generation native. Our roots are obviously deep. I agree with you JD. If you doubt California is lost to the likes of Newsom, Bass, (and by extension the Gettys), take a drive into LA paying close attention to the side of the freeway. Trash, homeless. graffiti mark the way. It breaks my heart. I too am here until I wrap up family business. I will then go somewhere safe and sane,
Prior to saying too much, i need to see what happens with the 2000 troops and possibly Marines deployed to LA.
However, imv, those who think and still live in CA, if able to move, should. There is an unimaginable amount of rot throughout California. Ok, there are some conservatives around Bakersfield and Redding, etc., but they are completely dominated by the wealth and supporters of blm, antifa, etc., around Silicon Valley, SF, LA, etc. Depending on whether the DOJ actually punishes those who rioted against ICE, it possibly could be a lost cause. It appears anti-civilizational and indicates America may be farther along in its decline than we previously thought. There appears to be more resist to the enforcement of our legitimate Immigration Law than a military invasion of Mexico would experience. That is, if we were to invade Mexico, i doubt the Mexican citizenry would be up more of a resistance than we are witnessing in LA. LA no longer belongs to the list of great cities of the globe. Neither does NY, Chicago, etc., for that matter.
I remember the Propositions the people voted FOR, only to have their choices replaced with what the democratic politicians wanted instead. California is a hell hole of corruption and greed. When will the voters say "Enough is enough"?
And gay marriage is a good example. The people overwhelmingly voted it down, so the 9th circuit told the people to go to Hell. Why did they even bother with the vote? It was all a sham to begin with. Hollywood was going to have their way, one way or another. The people didn't vote for any of this stuff. The Government just ran them all out. Even Tesla.
Why did we bother to even acknowledge the unconstitutional Circuit Court's judicial supremacist "ruling"? You're right. We don't get what we "vote" for. We mostly get what we voted "against"!
When I got out of the military, I had the opportunity to stay in Sacramento. the table was set. My girlfriend's family generously offered to put me up on their property. I was set to move over to a local Air National Guard unit I wanted to finish college desperately. everything was lined up for Cal State Sacramento. Only problem was I couldn't start for a full calendar year. I knew if I stayed, I'd never finish college. Pull up stakes in January 1990 and never looked back. graduating college in 1994. One of the three best decisions I ever made. thank God, I made the right choice
Yes I agree with you about California becoming a cess pool of filth it started with San Fransicko with it's Sodomites don't forget Hollywood: a cess pool of pedophiles, Satan worship, beastiality; the list goes on and on no wonder the God of Heaven is angry He's ready to pour out His wrath on California I think it's to late to save California wait for the big one "Earthquakes in divers places."
Additionally, blue states take more money than they contribute, contrary to false claims. DOGE just found that CA received $19 billion in improper medicaid money from the federal government! That’s just one example, which far exceeds their $8 billion tax contribution. 🤬🤬🤬

Cause of death: Incurable voting habits. Even those killed in the riots will still vote democrat.
There’s no integrity in their elections. I’m sure fraud plays a huge part in the continuing election of Dems.
Good summation of the situation.
Well, they ran all the Republicans out of the State, so I guess so.
Not all of us, just the ones who could afford to leave.
Thankful I live in a very red redneck state. Rural as heck, in the country. So peaceful!

Gettin' the rattle ready. Actually, the rattle is pretty much ready now.
Damn crimigrants think they're "Murican now, and can change Her as they wish.
Gonna git sum reality with that attitude.......
Onward, Christian soldiers!
I know you, you're my neighbor bubba with the washing machine yard ornament you stole from my yard! Don't even think of stealing my 65 Fairlane up on blocks by the road, that's got my mailbox mounted on it! (ツ)
Me too, Kelly. I'm a Cali native, left 20 years ago, it was already beyond hope.

Evidently stupidity is highly sought after in the Democratic party, especially in their voters. Bring back sanity!
I figured as much but had never read anything to disprove it. Thank you for the article. I’ll take a look!

Great rant! Spot on- as a CA native- now retired and hiding in the sierra’s- it’s embarrassing to live here now~

Prop. 187 was the last gasp for california. It's all over except the natural catastrophes, I reckon.
Maybe "gifting" the state to the CCP isn't all bad.
Onward, Christian soldiers!
"Maybe "gifting" the state to the CCP" - CCP already controls it. Examine the money that flows in to the corrupt politicians.
"Onward, Christian soldiers!" - I like that!
Yes I agree with you about California becoming a cess pool of filth it started with San Fransicko with it's Sodomites don't forget Hollywood: a cess pool of pedophiles, Satan worship, beastiality; the list goes on and on no wonder the God of Heaven is angry He's ready to pour out His wrath on California I think it's to late to save California wait for the big one "Earthquakes in divers places."
