California Governor Gavin Newsom announced Tuesday in his

Apparently, those who were tagged to do well in this deal already have theirs, so, no reason to continue.

Look for "infrastructure" development such as opulent stations in major areas (SF, LA, etc).

BTW, it is not curious that this cancellation happened AFTER an election?

"I cannot wait to confront a co-worker with this information tomorrow! I am ready to GLOAT!!"

LOL BUMP!!!!!

[roadcat]

So they will now just rip down the construction already done on this IDIOTIC project!!!

That would be a waste. Just put paving on top, an entrance/exit on both ends and call it a high-speed bicycle trail from Merced to Bakersfield. And charge a toll to pay for the improvements. Newsom can become a hero to the zero-emission enviroweenies crowd.

It might be the 5th but ut us the first I have seen if it.

[Hypo2]

Maybe AOC can get it done...x150. LOL

IN before Willie Green....

[tob2]

Such a terrible waste of money if part of the system has already been built.

[bigbob]

As in the previous threads about it, you mean?

[ExTexasRedhead]

I pray that the Bullet Train is shoved up his Marxist arse.

[Notthereyet]

It means they’ve managed to squirrel away all the monies they could legally do and have run out of ways to steal more of the monies.

Brown Bites the Bullitt [sic]?

Sessions and 17th letter win again?

[rktman]

😹. I think someone listed the others.

[hapnHal]

I hear former Gov. Brown is now out chasing butterflies.

I said in an earlier post that unions, politicians and organized crime just lost a ton of money.

Though Italian organized crime doesn’t have near the political influence it once did.

Seems like black and hispanic gangs were never interested in climbing the crime ladder where there’s LOTS of government money to be stolen.

How are we ever going to get to Hawaii now?

[Paladin2]

Perhaps we should blow the bridges to SI.

What do you think?

I don’t know about Dianne Feinstein’s husband’s dealings, nothing would surprise me... but there is a fair enough degree of likelihood that Newsome will get to appoint her successor. She is 86 years old and just won another term. Does anyone think she can sit another 6 years in the Senate? And if she can make it to 92, Newsome will likely be in his 2nd term and could run for the seat himself; assuming she completes the term.

So he owes her no fealty at this point. He’s probably/possibly gonna replace her at some point.

In fact, being CA, I think he could even appoint himself to her seat (?)
