lol... This was a graft-filled boondoggle from the beginning.
Origanally supposed to be $10 Billion over 10 years, with gizmos and door-to-door service. Yet another in the long list of Democrat politically-correct Boondoggles

I was wondering when Brown's train from nowhere to nowhere would meet its demise.
How many billions have already been spent on this boondoggle?
I'm guessing Gavin Newsom plans to use the money to fund illegal alien health care and housing...

In his defense, Newsom enters a plea of temporary sanity.

So Newsome wasn’t included in the graft scheme for this project.

Next money boondoggle for the state: elimination of fossil fuels to be replaced by solar, wind, and fairy dust.

Kickback, you say?
Trump says no more FEMA money for wildfires until you clean up the forests.
PG$E admits fault for starting fires.
PG$E goes bankrupt.
Nothing to see here....

After reading Fred Reed’s China article, California should contract China to create their rail line. Dictatorships get things done. See Mussolini and the trains running on time.

“Let’s be real,” Newsom said in his first State of the State address. “The current project, as planned, would cost too much and respectfully take too long. There’s been too little oversight and not enough transparency.”
Who would have thought a radical left winger from SF would be the one to exercise the sense to end this folly. Newsome is still a vapid deranged out of touch with reality fool but even the worst among us occasionally experiences periods of lucidity.

It was still a terrific windfall for environmental lawyers, labor unions, and democrat candidates. Millions and millions transferred from taxpayers to democrats.
