And the LA Times has connections to the communists, socialists, Democrats, BLM, every corrupt union in the multiverse, all formerly respected lib arts department in formerly respected universities, Venezuela, Cuba...and on and on.

Summary, we’re reading stuff from low IQ butt-kissing marshmallow majors who would fail at taking wires, battery and a light bulb and make light.

Journalism - when you are failing in your eddikashun major.

Wow, this guy is as much of a nut bag as Nancy Pelosi.

If you don’t want your business to fail because the dictator in the Governor’s mansion wants to play god you must be a White Racist.

Interesting, because Newsom has ties to far-left movements, including Hollywood and religious skeptics

As of Friday our official collection is 1.2 million plus. We need 1.4 million (and a cushion). We have seven more weeks.

Yep they are dusting off the old canards about our racistsexist roots now that we have them in our sites.

Tally ho
