They might be trying to empty the shelves but they aren’t empty now.

California is a land of magical thinking, where unintended consequences never happen.

What a FANTASTIC article. Greenfield is the first writer to really explain what has gone on with imports coming into California. I’m not surprised one bit, either. This is what you get when “Green” and Union trumps everything else in a Democrat, one-party state.

This is only a prelude to what will be happening to the entire USA with the communists in control.

I live in Spokane and remember the day several years ago when truckers went on strike and Trader Joe had no food. because it had to be trucked in from CA. Larger stores had a little more.

I went to two supermarkets today and there was no hint of their being out of stock on anything.

Here in North Idaho, one of our top supermarkets (”Super One”) has three or four empty spaces on every aisle. Maybe I was there yesterday when restocking was yet to occur, but I doubt it.

I’ve been buying lots of TP. I got seriously clobbered in April and May 2020 when there weren’t any paper towels to be found anywhere (that was in California then). I eventually bought flat, folded paper towels (the kind you used to find in gasoline station rest rooms) at Home Depot and I’m still using those!

Houston does not have a back log. The Panama canal is open for business.

Yeah. Spring 2020 the shelves became bare.

We bought so much tp from Cosco years ago (by mistake, really) we still have plenty.

Wow, this is up there with Victor Davis Hansen’s piece about conservatives hell being liberal nirvana.

These two guys are at the top of their game this week.

California has violated the Commerce Clause. Imagine the uproar if other states did the same to them?

Communists are only good at one thing, brainwashing the people into their own destruction.

One more ‘success story’ in a real thin journal of what total Dem control is all about these days. Backward.

I feel sorry for ANY FReeper who believes Gavin Newsom LEGITIMATELY won the recall election..

If a party can STEAL a Presidential election and get away with it, the other elections are a CAKE WALK TO STEAL and everyone here KNOWS IT.
