TOPICS: Society
KEYWORDS:
Both ran as Democrats. Caruso’ conversion from Republican to Independent to Democrat was viewed as suspect by his naysayers. (Well maybe there’s something to be said for pandering aye?)

Being white, male, and billionaire didn’t help despite the public spaces he developed — like “The Grove” being among the most frequented (and among the only remaining walkable) prime public spaces near Hollywood frequented by international tourists and local residents from every walk of life. Caruso also helped transform and revitalize the gang-ridden neighborhood of USC, his alma mater.

LA Times endorsed Bass as did Barack Obama. Kamala Harris did Bass’ swearing in.

Jeffrey Katzenburg of Dreamworks was Bass’ primary sponsor, BUT the most notable member of Bass’ list is arguably Ari Emanuel. Brother to Rahm Emanuel and Ezekiel. He is head of William Morris Endeavor Agency, often nicknamed “the man who owns Hollywood” —

and he just lost his home.

I doubt that the Liberals learned a thing from Bass’s cut in the fire department’s budget. Indeed, some of them probably don’t know that you can use water to put fires out.

“They” always want to have folks in charge that are dumber than they are. This obviously creates a laughably low standard which the politicians must go under. And so they got the slime molds in charge along with the results that the rest of us knew they’d eventually get.

California has entered into a post Republican/Democrat two party system era.

The political affiliation in Californai is now the Totally Bat Shit Crazy Party and the The Still Mostly Normal and Sane Party.

It is impossible to act completely sane and normal in today's California for even the the most completely normal, sane and stable people because coping with the daily California ration of insane woke BS makes living a normal, sane and balanced life style all but impossible.

The list of Bass voters includes some real sick puppies, alright. People who have sold their souls to the devil.

So sad about Jennifer Garner. She seems to be so cute on those Capital One commercials. Apparently she wants to be like the typical Democrat who wants to know what is in your wallet for nefarious reasons.

Her and Afflecks kids are a hot mess. Trannys and leftist morons and they are not out of their teens yet. Those two haven’t been together in years so it appears most all parenting is on her. FAIL!
