What I’m not seeing is anything about the mass influx of illegals coming over the border and heading to California.

Read up on the Governor’s trucking laws and see the impact those laws are having on the parking lot it’s causing in the Pacific. Because of those laws, the ports are clogged with no relief in sight. The damage is not confined to CA, and all of us are paying for those idiots’ laws. If I were Biden facing a 36% approval rating, I’d use whatever powers I have to augment the movement of goods from the CA seaports. But, that assumes Joe’s aware enough to see the problem.

California already buys some 30% of its energy from other states— much of it generated by nuclear plants in Arizona.

Joe is aware of the problem, and is actively seeking to exacerbate it.

Since Newsom’s antics are demonstrably having an impact on interstate commerce, wouldn’t an entity impacted (e.g. WalMart, Amazon) be able to bring a case to a federal judge to fix?

Asking for a friend.

California has long been a refuge for people big on ideas but short on realism.??? Until you come to grips with the truth your reporting is an affront realism. The realism is that Californians vote to bring down America. They are NOT short on realism. We believe our eyes. You don’t.

I hope to see them sitting totally in the dark for months on end.... I also do NOT want to see the Kalifornics moving to other states and taking their stupid ideas with them. They are too stupid to realize that they are the reason for the problem. Maybe we will get lucky and the state will just break off at the fault line and sink in to the ocean.

Interstate Commerce affected by California laws.

Hmmmmm....Seems that some of Biden’s and the Lefts birds have come home to roost.

Until we replace the DC radicals, this scenario will only repeat itself over and over again.

I’m not a lawyer, but I think they could. If nothing else, such a move would rattle some cages.

I wonder if Congress can repeal the Enabling Act that made California a state and turn the area back into a territory.

What should be even more troubling is that some 23 percent, nearly one-fourth of California voters, report they are “seriously considering” leaving the state.

Bet the rent, the majority of them will be leaving, because the situation in CA is hopeless. The leftist and the stupid way out number normal thinking people. To make it worse, illegals continue to flood the state and the public schools churn out hundreds of thousands of newly minted leftist every single year.

The old cliche....Put a fork in it.
