California Senate passes bill that would keep Trump off 2020 ballot unless he releases tax returns

By Stephen Frank on May 02, 2019 09:03 pm
California considers itself a nation/state.  It refuses to obey federal drug laws, immigration laws, environmental laws, education rules, health care  efforts.  It has its own foreign policy with Mexico, Canada and other nations—it even has a representative to the United Nations.  Now it has decided that the Constitution which gives the qualifications for an American […]

Sacramento City Teachers Announce Another One-Day Strike

By Stephen Frank on May 02, 2019 08:53 pm
In an article in todays California Political News and Views I discuss the question of why educators get paid less than graduates that go into the private sector.  One reason is the unions—they take away the professionalism of the teachers.  This story proves my point. “The Sacramento City Teachers Association, the union representing 2,500 teachers […]

By Stephen Frank on May 02, 2019 08:48 pm
This is just informational.  When you want to know why the pension system is over one trillion in unfunded liabilities, this is where you look. “The top earners were three members of the Los Angeles Police and Fire Pension Plan, who each received payouts of over $1 million: Former deputy police chief Michael Moore received […]

Assemblyman Kevin Kiley’s Legislation to Stop the Text Tax Passes 8-0!

By Stephen Frank on May 02, 2019 08:44 pm
Good to see an effective GOP legislator.  Here you have conservative Republican Assemblyman Kevin Kiley presenting a bill NOT to tax something.  In this case, his bill would stop the taxing of text messages.  You would think the bill will be defeated, since Democrats love taxes and do not want anything to stop them. “Today […]

Diversity Quota’s in L.A. to issue Marijuana Selling Licenses—LOL

By Stephen Frank on May 02, 2019 08:41 pm
Government creates quota’s for jobs, school enrollment, business loans, arrests and more.  Now the city of Los Angeles has come up with quota’s for the issuance of licenses to sell marijuana.  Not a joke. “Under the city’s rules, people from low-income neighborhoods with disproportionately high prior cannabis arrests would be among the first to get […]

Alvord Unified cuts 66 employees so it can pay next year’s bills

By Stephen Frank on May 02, 2019 08:38 pm
Alvord Unified is firing 66 employees—just to pay the bills.  Two reasons they have financial problems.  First, CalSTRS has almost doubled their mandatory contributions to the pension plan.  Second, the unions stranglehold over the budget and contracts.  Together, the kids lose. “The Alvord Unified School District cut 66.5 positions Tuesday, April 30, as part of […]

ICE starting 90-minute DNA tests on immigrant families at border

By Stephen Frank on May 02, 2019 08:34 pm
This is great news.  Finally, ICE will be able to find kidnappers and child molesters at the border.  The use of a DNA kit, at the border will prove the lie the kids are coming into this country with their parents.  Watch for the ACLU to try to stop the DNA testing. “Federal immigration officers […]

California Water Board Faces Lawsuit Over New Wetlands Rules

By Stephen Frank on May 02, 2019 08:31 pm
To spite President Trump and to implement the junk science of Barack Obama, the State of California is inserting radical water rules for farmers and water districts.  We have the highest cost of water in the nation—and the Socialists running Sacramento want to make it higher. ““By regulating previously unregulated wetland features as waters of […]
