Orange County, California is slowly making its way back to normal but Gov. Gavin Newsom's COVID-19 tyranny reigns supreme in Los Angeles County.
Los Alamitos, Calif. — Orange County, California is slowly making its way back to normal but Gov. Gavin Newsom’s COVID-19 tyranny reigns supreme in Los Angeles County.
The campaign to unseat Newsom began last year as California constituents grew weary of government overreach, bureaucratic lockdowns, school closures, and restrictions on dining and shopping that were not rooted in science. After Newsom attended a maskless indoor dinner at an expensive restaurant in violation of his state’s own COVID-19 rules, the urge to boot him from office gained even more traction and launched a new era of civil disobedience
Orange County, home to tourist hotspots along the Pacific Coast Highway such as Huntington Beach and Newport Beach, turned away from its historic red streak in November to vote for President Joe Biden, who campaigned on unity and beating the virus. When it comes to the president and their state’s COVID-19 policies, however, residents in both towns are openly frustrated with more than a year of tyranny in the name of keeping people safe.
Days before the election that will determine if the Democrat stays in office, families frolicked unmasked in Huntington Beach’s chic Pacific City shopping center, ignoring the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s newest universal masking demands. Some chain clothing stores still posted signs on windows asking guests to wear masks if they are unvaccinated, but shoppers migrated in and out of the crowded shops without care for the unenforced orders. Most food booth and store employees also bustled around without face coverings. On the beach in Huntington, even more people gathered maskless.
Months after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled against Newsom and other California bureaucrats’ assault on church gatherings under the guise of protecting people from COVID-19, churches including Los Alamitos megachurch Cottonwood Church are hosting indoor and some outdoor worship services led by and filled with mostly maskless congregants eager to assemble and exercise their rights to free speech and freedom of assembly.
In Newport Beach, tourists crowded onto whale-watching boats and harbor ferries without masks or limitations. Others spent their weekend dining indoors at oceanview restaurants where, once again, posted health orders about unvaccinated people masking were not strictly enforced by staff, who, if they wore masks, let them hang below their noses.
Stay Gruesome With Newsom
I live is south OC and things have been back to normal for awhile, except for some masking. There is no mask mandate.
I am vacationing currently on Catalina Island which is in LA county. Big difference. Masks required indoors, though not many wearing them outdoors.
If the recall fails, I think Gavin will bring the hammer down. Makes mandates, water rationing, more COVID restrictions.
so, his “patience is wearing thin”?
How are restaurants in the OC, vis-a-vis Covid crap?
Anybody wearing them while swimming?
The CA recall election if fixed for NAZI Pelosi’s nephew.
Commiefornia will become even more totalitarian and use NAZI Socialist tactics to an even greater extent.
if = is
I live in Huntington Beach & the same here. Especially at the beach - no masks & very few in town or other OC cities. Nobody even says anything & hasn't for a long time. I have never worn a mask & have never been asked.
I have an office in Burbank & they have been & still are crazy there. I don't wear a mask, but I also pretty much only to to my office & no where else. It's like a whole different country in LA County.
“Anybody wearing them while swimming?”
Wouldn’t that be like waterboarding?
Fairly normal in San Diego other than the Apple Store.
Its guarded by self important college student mask nazis.
Scuba divers and snorkelers
are the gyms in L.A. County opened yet? I was relocated to OKC from Hollywood 6 months ago by my company and 6 months ago, they were still shuttered. LA Fitness never reimbursed me for 8 months of my 12 month fee - that’s about 200 bucks
As far as I know, yes they are open. I assume you probably have to wear a mask & I'm not sure about proving to be vaccinated. It probably depends on the specific location.
Another big difference between LA & OC, here in OC, my kids have been going to 2 different Crunch gyms for many many months & they don't have to wear masks. Crunch shut down for a couple of months, but reopened very quickly.
That’s his key to victory. He will survive recall.
There are many, MANY, NOT A FEW, reports from recall voters and poll workers, of voters showing up only to be told they already voted.

Recall election related...
My SIL told me of a friend of his in San Diego just received three (3) mail-in ballots.
Dems/Marxists/progressives just HATE free and fair elections, as they are the biggest threat to their accumulation of power.
Did NOT see many masks t LA Chargers Football game.
