SEIU membership in California is declining.
SEIU has been largely responsible for California’s decline.
“No One Is Above The Law”
Well, except the Clintons, Pelosi, Maxine Waters…
The QAnon Shaman
…has gotten an early release from prison.
Chansley will have some time to consider [a lawsuit], and as of now he has not been exonerated or had his plea vacated. He has simply been released early.
The January 6th prosecutions have been a farce. It’s not that the rioters deserve no consequences for their actions. They do.

There is still a lot of injustice to rectify.
The IPCC Reports
…have become bumper-sticker climate science.

California From The Inside
“How I knew they were lying.”
Slight quibble: Beverly Hills is east of the 405.
