Judge rules California cannot stop Huntington Beach from having Voter ID.

Huntington Beach can ask for ID to vote.

Judge rules California cannot stop Huntington Beach from having Voter ID. Last March the good citizens of Huntington Beach passed a law that made showing a ID to vote mandatory.

This outraged the Progressives, Undocumented, Gang members, and leftist politicians. Newsom, in a thinly veiled act of retaliation, signed a state law aimed at preempting local voter ID measures. The affirmative action DA stepped in to represent the lowest of low. He filed a lawsuit.

Orange County Superior Court Judge Nico Dourbetas delivered a decisive win for election integrity, rejecting California’s lawsuit against Huntington Beach and upholding the city’s voter ID law. “The City’s Charter is permissive … and thus currently presents no conflict with state elections law,” Dourbetas wrote in his ruling.

Poison to the left.

Get over it Virginia, California is seeing the light.

So we saw that ten counties that voted for Biden in 2020 would have nothing to do with toxic spill Harris. Trump turned those ten to the pretties shade of red.

Those counties include Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, Inyo, Fresno, Merced, Butte, Nevada, San Joaquin, and Stanislaus counties.

California here I come. Trump to visit SouthernCalifornia.

President Donald Trump is coming to California this weekend, and plans to speak near Coachella. The question is why, given that no Republican presidential candidate has won the state in more than three decades, nor will he.

The answer is that there are several close congressional races in California that could determine control of the House of Representatives. Plus, there is lots of fundraising cash in California, even among the remaining Republicans.

The Cook Political Report rates ten California seats as competitive. If financed, the Republicans have a good chance of taking all ten. Why?

The most closely-contested areas will be Orange County; the Inland areas of Southern California; and the Central Valley. Each of these areas has large numbers of Latino voters, whom the Democrats once considered a reliable voting bloc, but who have been trending towards Republicans in recent years.

California passes law to make it illegal to make fun of Democrats. Judge says no way.

California passes law to make it illegal to make fun of Democrats. Judge says no way. So Newsom was all upset about a video that was really funny. Made Harris look like a dunce.

A federal judge has issued a preliminary injunction blocking enforcement of a recently passed California law aimed at curbing the spread of AI-generated deepfakes depicting political candidates. In his decision, Judge John Mendez wrote,

 “While a well-founded fear of a digitally manipulated media landscape may be justified, this fear does not give legislators unbridled license to bulldoze over the longstanding tradition of critique, parody, and satire protected by the First Amendment.”

Killer drones. California Police have them, why not the Border Patrol?

Let the drones fly.

Killer drones. California Police have them, why not the Border Patrol? In California the police have drones that are armed. Why not equip the Border patrol with this technology?

Recently there was a law passed that tried to take this crime fighting tool away from law enforcement. Newsom had another rare good deed. He vetoed the bill.

California law enforcement won’t be prohibited from using killer drones anytime soon, after Gov. Gavin Newsom this weekend vetoed AB 2681.

The bill, by Assemblywoman Akilah Weber, D-San Diego, would have made it an infraction offense to manufacture, modify, sell, transfer or operate a robotic device equipped with a weapon.

Yes Virginia, California has 24 new gun laws to keep you safe. NOT.

More laws that don't work.

Yes Virginia, California has 24 new gun laws to keep you safe. NOT.

So, my friends in California can sleep safe now. They have 24 more-gun laws to protect them. Who cares if the other 50-100 laws are already on the books. Strength in numbers, I guess.

California is already No. 1 for gun control among states in the Union, according to Mike Bloomberg-affiliated Everytown for Gun Safety, yet Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) signed 24 new gun controls on Tuesday.

Two out of the last three years, despite all the extant gun control, FBI figures showing California led the nation in “active shooter incidents” in 2021 and 2023.

How funny is this? California passes a law that makes it illegal to make fun of Progressives.

What an ass.

How funny is this? California passes a law that makes it illegal to make fun of Progressives. Not making this up. Here’s the official language.

Newsom this week signed into law a bill that makes it illegal to ‘knowingly distribute an ad or other election communications that contain materially deceptive content, including deepfakes. Watch.

California and their wasting of water.

California and their wasting of water.

In case you missed it, President Trump was in California at a fundraiser held for him by a relative of the Governor. One of the things he pointed out was the misuse of water.

Heavy storms have flooded parts of California, but the state has been unable to capture billions of gallons of water that are flowing unchecked into the ocean. Not me saying this, but MSM.

Since the beginning of January, a series of atmospheric rivers has disgorged trillions of gallons of much-needed moisture across drought-stricken California, but only a small fraction of that water has so far made it into storage. In the delta — the heart of the state’s vast water system — nearly 95% of incoming water has flowed into the Pacific Ocean, according to data from the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation.

Berkley trying to pull a fast one. Gas Hook ups. What’s next? Gas stoves?

Last year the 9th told California that you can’t ban gas stoves or building hook ups. Several cities passed these asinine laws. Berkley being one.

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals last year struck down the city of Berkeley’s ordinance that sought to ban natural gas hookups in new buildings, finding it conflicted with federal law. But Berkeley’s climate obsessives are trying to do an end-run with a November voter initiative that would tax owners of larger buildings for consuming gas.

Another day another mass shooting.

California. Murder state USA.

Another day another mass shooting.

Yesterday we had another tragic mass shooting. Four dead and nine wounded. This time it was a fourteen-year-old boy who did the killing. So, I’m sure we will see another call for gun bans and new strict laws.

I looked at the numbers from Statista from 1982 to June of 2024. California by far leads all states with 26. As a matter of fact, looking at the top 13 states (four states are tied) here’s the breakdown.

Blue states 55 mass shootings. Purple states 13 mass shootings. Red states 30. So how are those strict gun laws working out?

Speaking of California, when you look at mass shootings that kill or injure? Between 2015 and 2023, California saw about one mass shooting per week. Around 400 hundred incidents. This according to The Public Policy Institute of California.
