McCarthy: Three Reasons Democrats Should Get Serious About Border Security

By Stephen Frank on Jan 16, 2019 09:47 pm
San Fran Nan today acted like a Republican.  She tried to have illegal aliens arrested that were on HER property, her home.  While she has no problem with MS-13 and other illegal aliens flowing cross the border, stealing welfare, education, health care, housing and other public funds, harvesting absentee ballots for the Democrats, she did […]

By Stephen Frank on Jan 16, 2019 09:38 pm
Who says college is the place for students to learn about everything before they decide who they are and what they believe?  The colleges in the Maxine Waters congressional district obviously have a litmus test—support Democrats or you do not work. “The analysis found that 100 percent of college administrators and 100 percent of faculty […]

By Stephen Frank on Jan 16, 2019 09:35 pm
Great news!!!  It is possible that UTLA, by creating a strike and ending education for 640,000 could push parents into demanding charter schools and other non union run schools.  At some point parents will realize that the failed LAUSD is not educating their children and that the unions want money not quality education. “For the […]

By Stephen Frank on Jan 16, 2019 09:32 pm
I love when the media fights, and one TV station exposes the corruption of a network.  Corruption comes in many forms, in this case and out and out lie by Associated Press. “A San Diego television station has hit back at an Associated Press report that said it had “backed off” its belief that CNN […]

PUC AGAIN TRIES TO HELP UTILITIES FIGHT THEIR BIG FEAR

By Stephen Frank on Jan 16, 2019 09:22 pm
Good news for PG&E—the Public Utilities Commission may try to save it.  The reality is the company is going into bankruptcy and will, I bet, be taken over by the government.  Newsom will socialize this utility.  Then using “Community Choice Aggregation” bankrupt the other utilizes, so the total control of our homes and businesses will […]
