President Trump broke from his inspection of border wall samples on Tuesday to castigate California's Democratic state government, saying that Gov. Jerry Brown is "doing a terrible job running the state."

Trump's first visit to the nation's most populous state is to be brief — just one day — but long on symbolism. He spent about an hour inspecting border wall prototypes built at his direction in San Diego, and plans to speak at the Marine Corps Air Station Miramar and travel to a fundraiser in Beverly Hills that is expected to raise $5 million for the Republican National Committee.

Blame your Republican Congress. They have worked with the Democrats to stop all progress.

Are you really that petulant?

Unless you are in the business of mining or fishing, as a bookkeeper, I cannot think of many more commercial ventures that ‘CANNOT be moved out of the state”.

Clarify?

It is a small but highly profitable extortion racket exclusively serving Rich, Greedy, Wealthy and Famous people on the Westside of Los Angeles, and every other wealthy neighborhood you can think of between Santa Barbara and San Clemente.

I can not tell you exactly what I do because I am very well known.

Moonbeam vetoed a bill that would have allowed guards at State Hospitals and Veteran Homes to be armed.

Hostage crisis prompts California police union to ask for weapons*

A hostage crisis at a state veterans home on Friday prompted a California law enforcement union to repeat its appeal to arm the officers who provide security at state hospitals and veterans’ facilities.

Fewer than nine unarmed state public safety officers work at the Yountville Veterans Home in Napa County, where a man armed with a rifle exchanged gunfire with police and took three employees of a veterans counseling program hostage.

The California State Law Enforcement Association, a union that represents a variety of public safety employees, released a statement on Friday afternoon urging the California Department of Veterans Affairs to begin arming officers at Yountville.

“Despite being unarmed, they are tasked with the responsibility of protecting a very large campus of residents, staff, and visitors 24 hours a day, and local law enforcement relies on these public safety officers as the front-line security for the hospital,” the statement read.

In 2012, Gov. Jerry Brown vetoed a bill that would have required the Department of State Hospitals to begin arming CSLEA-represented officers at its sites. The bill passed unanimously in the Senate and by a 78-1 margin in the Assembly.

*Albert Wong, the killer apparently came into the building with Ammo hanging around his neck and a rifle in his hand. Then, he told the other vets, they could leave.

Next, he called out the names of the 3 women, whom he killed later and took them to a second floor room and then killed them. One was pregnant. Then he killed himself.

If there were armed guards, they might have prevented the slaughter.

Jerry Brown is an F rated governor here. The CA legislators are corrupt as hell. I am shocked that these dirty, rotten shenanigans are not behind bars. CA Taxpayers need to get a pair and take action against the CA SWAMP.
