California is a third-world communist sh*t hole - nothing “great” about it.

Glad to hear it! Seems to me that every federal grant to Commie-fornia should be on hold until they reform the voting system to eliminate “provisional” ballots and institute reliable voter id. Kamala Harris got her state AG position on tens of thousands of ballots counted days AFTER the election, as did at least six CA congressmen, and heaven knows how many others.

In California, Dems just wait until the election is “over” to add however many votes they want.

GOOD! Never should have been granted in the first place! I am sure that Brown and all of his friends that bought land up in the central valley where the train was to go in at have already cashed in though.
The only part that has been started and MIGHT be completed will be from Merced to Bakersfield.
Total waste! If they are not going to connect one end or the other to the major cities, what good is it going to do?
They should chop it up and truck it down to the border for the wall.

CA wishes they had that Billion to pay for the repairs to their State owned/built/maintained and operated Oroville spillway, which is estimated at $870 Million. The original entire cost of the Orivaiil Dam was around $1 Billion in today’s dollars..

I would hate to be a GIS technician charged with the inputting of THAT data base. That would be a low paying s—t job.

How do you like THOSE apples, Gavin?

Partner, I'll betcha he will say those apples do not taste that good!!!

Partner, we need to find out how many subsidies are coming out of D.C. to pay for this kinda garbage.

These socialists/communists do not get called out by our dear MSM infantile journalists since we have not seen anything said about this subject.

I wish they all could be California trains ...

well east coast trains are pretty, and they creep from town to town,

and northern trains with the way they run, they let a lot of people down,

and Texas trains are oil cars mostly, people drive their pick-up trucks,

if you ride the Amtrak from Tacoma better hope you’re having a bit of luck ...

I wish they all could be California trains ...
