Justice Department: 45% of Blacks at Harvard Admitted Through Illegal Race Preferences

By Stephen Frank on Feb 28, 2020 08:20 pm
Harvard University is a proud affiliate of the KKK, in reverse.  Worse they are telling white students, you are the wrong color.  And, telling black students you do not have to work as hard to get enroll in a bigoted University. “Almost half of all blacks and Hispanics who attend Harvard were admitted because of […]

Failures Of Governance Is The Reason Why The “State Of California” Is Bad And Getting Worse

By Stephen Frank on Feb 28, 2020 08:17 pm
Affordable housing does not exist in most of California.  Crime is going up, but not reported since police no longer arrest illegal aliens, those who steal under $950 worth of good, at a dime.  Drugs and addiction is rampant.  CalPERS has an unfunded liability north of one trillion dollars.  This is a State committing suicide […]

It is starting.  Previously I reported on San Fran firms with 47,000 employees leaving town or closing down.  Now the Bay Area is seeing another 8,000 job losses.  At the same time San Fran is closing streets making it more difficult, expensive and by using government transportation, unreliable for folks to get to work.  With […]

Hundreds Pack Santa Barbara School Board over Sex Ed

By Stephen Frank on Feb 28, 2020 08:12 pm
This is how democracy works.  Real people showing up at a school board meeting giving their stories and views to the elected officials.  Sadly, in a democracy the elected officials do not have to listen.  One of the reason this school district, like most in California has declining enrollment.  Parents no longer trust government schools […]

Critics argue Gov. Newsom is diverting gas tax money to projects voters did not approve of

By Stephen Frank on Feb 28, 2020 08:07 pm
Why Does it Take a Washington D.C. based newspaper to bring to Light the corruption of Guv Newsom? Guv Newsom has stolen gas tax money for his personal projects—money meant to fix roads and to build freeways.  Instead he is taking money to create traffic jams via bike and walk lanes, taking traffic lanes that […]

By Stephen Frank on Feb 28, 2020 08:01 pm
How bad are the finances of Los Angeles? “In June, Mayor Eric Garcetti and the Herb Wesson led City Council approved the City’s 2019-20 budget, knowing full well that the upcoming labor agreements that were being negotiated with the police and firefighters would blow a massive hole in the City’s “balanced” budget as well as […]
