Steve Garvey moves into second for California Senate.

Steve Garvey moves into second for California Senate. The top two vote getters go to the next stage. A recent poll from Politico shows Garvey, who is running as a Republican, with the support of 19% of likely California voters, second to Congressman Adam Schiff’s 28%.

Porter and Lee are also close behind. Garvey needs the other half dozen Republicans to drop out. Hopefully the State and National RNC back Garvey financially.

What happens when you allow hate groups like BLM? Ask Seattle.

What happens when you allow hate groups like BLM. Ask Seattle. The city of Seattle has had enough. They had to go and take back their city park. BLM supposedly had a community garden. What did they create?

City officials said in a statement that the “makeshift,” temporary garden was being removed because of public health and safety concerns, as well as for maintenance reasons including reseeding and turf restoration.

The efforts on Wednesday also included the removal of tent encampments located near the garden and outside the park along E. Olive Street, which city officials said was to ensure the public spaces remain clean and open for everyone.

So far this year, the City’s Unified Care Team has cleaned up encampments at Cal Anderson Park 76 times, making the park one of the most frequently addressed areas in the city for repopulated encampments, the city said.

Yes Virginia, when you protest against the war and carry Hamas flags, you do support Hamas and not Israel.

Yes Virginia, when you protest against the war and carry Hamas flags, you do support Hamas and not Israel. You see these protests and always in the crowd are folks chanting racial slurs and making comments that support Hamas.

But you have MSM and white progressive supremacists telling us that this is just a friendly protest asking for a cease fire. Are there some folks who want a cease fire? But why aren’t they asking for Hamas and their Arab supporters asking for a release of the hostages? Why aren’t there Israeli flags being carried?

Some protesters were also heard shouting “Allahu Akbar” and “mobilize the intifada.”

Texas has a good idea. Arrest the Undocumented for Trespassing.

Texas has a good idea. Arrest the Undocumented for Trespassing. They have already arrested over 37,000 for Trespassing. This sounds like a good law for all the states to adopt this law.

Texas Spokesperson Ericka Miller said those arrested included gang members, human traffickers, sex offenders and others.

“Had we not been there, all of it likely would have crossed into the country unimpeded,” Miller told The Associated Press. “The state of Texas is working to send a message to those considering crossing into the country illegally to think again.”

Are third parties a threat to Joe Biden in 2024?

Are third parties a threat to Joe Biden in 2024? Some behind close doors in the Biden administration are really worried that Biden’s in big trouble. Without the third parties Biden trails Trump.

So, add in RFK JR, Cornel West, plus the No Labels and you just may have a landslide victory for Donald Trump. While long shots to emerge atop the field, Cornel West and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. have proved resilient as oft-competing factions of the party have coalesced around the goal of keeping Biden in the Oval Office.

Also lurking is Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), fresh off an announcement that he will not run for reelection to the Senate and continuing his flirtation with a third-party White House run.

What world dictators keep or try to keep the opposition off the ballot?

What world dictators keep or try to keep the opposition off the ballot? The United States joined several other countries that keep or try to keep the opposition off the ballot.

The Biden administration has enacted or threatened sanctions against foreign nations who have kicked opposition candidates off the ballot, leading some lawmakers to question the Colorado Supreme Court’s ruling this week to remove former President Donald Trump from the state’s 2024 election ballot.

Russia, Bolivia, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Belarus, and now the United States has joined that list. Thank a Democrat.

The United States used sanctions against these countries and asked the world community to also sanction these countries.

Smith trying to stop Trump from using evidence. Again Smith has run to the judge. This time his goal is to keep out evidence. Special Counsel Jack Smith wants to prevent President Trump from blaming provocateurs and undercover agents for the January 6 Capitol riot.

“Through public statements, filings and argument in hearings before the court, the defense has attempted to inject into this case partisan political attacks and irrelevant and prejudicial issues that have no place in a jury trial,” Jack Smith’s 20-page filing said.

“Although the court can recognize these efforts for what they are and disregard them, the jury — if subjected to them — may not. The court should not permit the defendant to turn the courtroom into a forum in which he propagates irrelevant disinformation, and should reject his attempt to inject politics into this proceeding,” Smith wrote according to the court filing

Does my heart good to be remembered by so many. 500+ and counting. Several weeks back I turned 70. What was a great surprise to me was that over 500 of my old customers across the country remembered.

Beside the wishes on social media, I also received over 100 phone calls. So, this is my way of thanking all of them. So far, I’ve returned all the calls and thanked about 300.

But, but $20 an hour was to create a fair livable wage. Pizza Hut across California lays off drivers.

But, but $20 an hour was to create a fair livable wage. Pizza Hut across California lays off drivers. So what happened? Why would anyone be surprised? This is only the beginning. The increase goes into effect come April. Don’t be surprised if more layoffs happen.

KTLA 5 reported:

Two large Pizza Hut operators in California are laying off all their delivery drivers ahead of a new state law that raises the minimum wage for fast-food workers to $20 an hour, Business Insider reports.

The layoffs impact hundreds of Pizza Hut locations across the state including Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, Ventura and San Bernardino counties and Sacramento, and involve more than 1,200 in-house delivery drivers.

The job cuts will take place through February, according to federal employment notices obtained by Business Insider.

In 2022, Gov. Gavin Newsom of California signed the FAST Act into law. It called for the minimum wage for fast-food workers to increase to $22 an hour in 2023. But corporate chains such as McDonald’s, Chipotle, Chick-fil-A, and franchise-advocacy groups fought the law. A coalition of restaurant-industry organizations said the law could raise costs for fast-food restaurants by $3 billion. They rallied to get a referendum on the ballot.

A new law, AB 1228, replaced the controversial FAST Act this year. The minimum-wage increase for fast-food workers was changed to $20 an hour. The new law was viewed as a compromise between the labor unions representing fast-food workers and the restaurant industry.

So, now those folks will have to rely on third party delivery services and you know that won’t be cheap. The law affects 557,000 fast-food workers at 30,000 restaurants in California.
