By Stephen Frank on Jan 15, 2019 09:27 pm
The former Mayor of Los Angeles, Antonio, rode a bike, got hit and then spent millions cutting down car lanes and creating more and larger bike lanes.  The results, more people, wearing helmets on bikes, got hurt.  The Mayor of San Jose was recently on a bike ride, using a bike lane—got hit—he wants to […]

Law Barring Illegal Aliens From Having Guns Is Constitutional

By Stephen Frank on Jan 15, 2019 09:15 pm
Good news:  Illegal aliens can not have guns.  Bad news;  No one is stopping MS-13, the killer of Officer Singh and Kate Steinle from having a gun.  But, if you are honest it is expensive and difficult to get to use your Second Amendment rights.  This must be a joke—or a waste of the courts’ […]

LAUSD could lose control of its finances if it agrees to a teachers contract that depletes reserves, county warns

By Stephen Frank on Jan 15, 2019 09:11 pm
LAUSD is bankrupt.  Under current budgeting, it is days away from the State taking it over.  The union does not care about finances or 640,000 students.  If the union gets any of its demands, the District will shut down—period.  While the District has a $2 billion reserve, that money is legally allocated to specific expenditures—at […]

EXCLUSIVE: UC-Berkeley gun violence panelist has ‘no background’ on topic, instead will focus on ‘activism’

By Stephen Frank on Jan 15, 2019 09:04 pm
UC Berkeley does not hold a conference on guns.  It holds a conference on how to take away your Second Amendment rights—your right to self protection. “A four-person University of California, Berkeley panel on gun violence in schools does not appear to have any conservative representatives, with one member even admitting she has “no background” […]

By Stephen Frank on Jan 15, 2019 09:02 pm
Should baby parts, taken via abortion, be put into mice?  Do you believe tax dollars should be spent on this endeavor? “The National Institutes of Health will not decide whether to continue its long-term multimillion-dollar contract with the University of California, San Francisco to make “humanized mice” with organs taken from aborted babies until after […]

We pay through the nose to live in California

By Stephen Frank on Jan 15, 2019 08:57 pm
You have to be rich to live in California.  Thanks to the defeat of Prop. 6, you get another major gas tax increase in July—plus another vehicle registration fee increase.  Then on January, 1, 2020,  thanks to Cap and Trade, the gas tax goes up by as much as 72 cents.  Guv Brown raised the […]

LA County Cities Could Have Funds Withheld Under Newsom’s New Housing Plan

By Stephen Frank on Jan 15, 2019 08:54 pm
We were told by unions and contractors that we had to vote No on Prop. 6.  Why?  Because we desperately needed the tax money to fix our streets and roads.  Now, Guv Newsom is promising to withhold this “needed” money unless your city agrees to allow HIS office and Sacramento to take over zoning and […]

USC forces students to get permission for free speech two weeks ahead of time

By Stephen Frank on Jan 15, 2019 08:06 pm
If you go to USC, you need to give the Administration two weeks notice—not to quit, but to get the right to use free speech.  Sounds more like a totalitarian State.  Why does an administrator have the right to keep a student from their First Amendment rights? “Now it’s facing scrutiny for revoking students’ free-speech […]

By Stephen Frank on Jan 15, 2019 08:02 pm
Think elections are honest and fair?  We already know that illegal aliens collected absentee ballots., by the thousands in Orange County, per the L.A. Times.  We know that nine people were indicted in Los Angeles for creating over 800 phony ballots, by paying the homeless a dollar and a pack of cigarettes.  Now a former […]
