If California Democrats follow their usual pattern, they’ll express delight that he’s going to leave, and announce plans to build a California-run railroad to replace it. Of course, this will be followed by a series of huge demands for federal financing from the Brandon administration.

I’m okay with all legitimate commerce, large and small, leaving LA. The jobs and working people will follow, leaving only the criminals. Sounds like a bad movie plot but would be real.
The police and prosecutors are an obstacle to the enforcement of property law.

Start shooting the perps. Not to wound, either.
