I know I don’t want the rest of the country to be like Commiefornia.

California has already bled into a number of states. I’m shocked that someone could miss this, but there are a lot of heads in the sand in this country.

indeed, visit Californication and you’ll see for yourself just how much damage the communists/leftwingers/autocrats/hightaxers have inflicted on that once-proud, prosperous, and beautiful state.

Well they did it with illegal alliens, before CA was a red state with about 66% whites back in 1980s, when they voted for Reagan and 4 conservative governaros, now whites are less than 47% and the block voting of “minorities” is what drives the state to the left-all Dem that’s the plan for the rest of USA-get th illegals in and they vote Dem

The white liberal is a media misdirection as Californians moving to Texas and Fl actually make those states more conservative as Richard Baris has shown, cuz its conservatives leaving the state

Kamala gave a good speech tonight. We’ll have to deal with it. I’m sure she won over more than a few fence sitters.We’ll see if the excitement carries outside the building.

Far too many, in my opinion.

Kamala gave read a good speech tonight.

Funny thing is, now that she has done that she can never even attempt to not use a teleprompter.

Folks will immediately see the difference, and that they are actually voting for a teleprompter, not a person.

Let’s hope so. We all know the media will cover for her. It’s good that RFK Jr. can steal her thunder tomorrow if he supports Trump as planned. Trump is measured in his response to Jr.’s potential support. Kamala’s speech-couldn’t let the cheering adulation continue to it’s proper pause. She cut it off early at least twice. Then there’s the ‘joy’ element they’re pushing. At this point Trump is outside looking in and they’re using his negatives against him. I don’t think she’s patient.

First the libertarians. Now it’s RFK. Sounds like a good consolidation.
Did he really offer to support Kamala for a cabinet position? I would think not. They said too many lies tonight for an honest straight shooter to want to be a part of it. She’s a lousy boss I’ve read. With Trump he’s more likely to stay relevant and be of use to us. Would Trump keep him on a leash? I’d be easier to fire him but only after he publicly goes after the Fauchi’s & CIA/FBI.

When Joe Biden was elected in 2020, an overjoyed Los Angeles Times boasted that his goal was to “make America California again.” Biden has fulfilled the Times’s vision, if with less than complete success.
.
Over the past few weeks, however, lunchbucket Joe from Scranton has been unceremoniously dumped by the Golden State elite — Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff, George Clooney and a passel of tech oligarchs — to be replaced with one of their own, Vice President Kamala Harris. But given the chances of a GOP win this year, the Californians have another favorite in the wings, Governor Gavin…

Yuk.

There are good bits throughout this live episode of We Are Change / DNC Night 4, with Alex Jones and Roger Stone and Luke Rudkowski.

We said the same thing in the 70s about the Homosexuals in California. “It’ll never come here!”, we exclaimed as the Sodomites were invading our State Governments and schools…

We Hoosiers are hicks
And we live in the sticks.
We are somewhat lazy,

but we sure don’t want to cut off our di...!

“Yet so overwhelming is the state’s political imbalance that even GOP analysts do not expect change in any direction soon. In fact three-fifths of Californians plan to vote for Democrats for Congress, and a hefty majority expects to back keeping them in control of the White House“

This isn’t a political party, it’s a diseased cult.
