Dallas Mavericks Will No Longer Play National Anthem at the Direction of Mark Cuban

By Stephen Frank on Feb 10, 2021 08:46 pm
In the heart of Texas a billionaire has declared the National Anthem at professional basket games forbidden.  This is a State that loves our nations yet this billionaire has decided to end a tradition that is expected at games.  I would hope that at the next home game the attendees, without support of Mark Cuban, […]

Colman: GALLOPING TOWARD MEDIOCRITY

By Stephen Frank on Feb 10, 2021 08:42 pm
Many of our California schools are no longer giving “F’s—every one passes.  Our teachers will soon have NO test of their skills—graduate from college and get your teaching credential—no need to see if you can teach.  Especially since UCLA and other schools are, in part, giving grades based on economic condition and race—not class work. […]

Cory Booker Wants to Replace Major College Football With Federally Controlled Pro Game

By Stephen Frank on Feb 10, 2021 08:40 pm
Never thought I would see this—the socialist even hate college football.  Radical Democrat Cory Booker wants to end control of football at the colleges.  Instead he wants government to control it.  Imagine a bureaucrat deciding who gets a scholarship—by race of course—who gets to play, what position and if they get playing time based on […]

Global Warming Alarmists Keep Letting Their Masks Slip, Reveal Their True Motivations

By Stephen Frank on Feb 10, 2021 08:38 pm
Global warming activist are not about a healthy climate—they are about a socialist/fascist/State where government controls your life, your food, your transportation, health care, education and more. “Ranting last month before the Vermont Climate Council, David Ismay, Massachusetts Republican Gov. Charlie Baker’s undersecretary for climate change, said that “60% of our emissions come from residential […]

Ring: The Consequences of California’s Centrally Planned Compassion

By Stephen Frank on Feb 10, 2021 08:35 pm
Do you think a bureaucrat in Sacramento can make transportation, zoning or education plans for your community?  Do you think these people ever even visited your community—yet they are making decisions that override city councils and school boards? “How California’s politics devolved between 1960 and 2020 to put the state into its current predicament is […]

Walters: Is a mini-bullet train worth the cost?

By Stephen Frank on Feb 10, 2021 08:33 pm
We could spend upwards of $100 billion over a thirty year period to create a 171 mile slow train from Merced to Bakersfield.  At that almost no one will ride the trains—plus the fare box will make only 5% of the cost of operating—the rest of the money has to come from education, public safety […]

Low kindergarten attendance creates first grade problem

By Stephen Frank on Feb 10, 2021 08:29 pm
Low kindergarten attendance?  How can any kid be enrolled in a program that does not exist.  Schools or closed, parents know it—why waste time filling out forms, getting doctors notes, etc, when at best they will be told come back, maybe next year.  We already have a significant decline in government, and private school enrollments […]

Orange County Already Had a Secret Contract for Vaccine PR Before Firm Was Publicly Hired

By Stephen Frank on Feb 10, 2021 08:27 pm
Government acts in secret.  It signs contracts for projects not needed.  Money meant for virus relief is partially going to a PR firm to make politicians look good. “It turns out the county already had secretly hired the firm for COVID-19 outreach months earlier in July – and secretly expanded the contract by $500,000 in […]

California Commission Recommends Ending Mandatory Minimum Sentences

By Stephen Frank on Feb 10, 2021 08:24 pm
How do you stop criminals from going to jail?  End the minim sentences, so probation instead of ten years can legally be the sentence.  While Newsom is locking us up in our homes, he is releasing as many criminals from jail and prison as possible.  Think you are safe in your home and streets?  Not […]

Op-Ed: Electric vehicles and their drawbacks, Chapter II

By Stephen Frank on Feb 10, 2021 08:10 pm
Think electric vehicles are environmentally sound—think about the batteries and their pollution when they go to landfills or the corner dump. “If I had to solely rely on EVgo for charging my Hyundai Kona Ultimate EV with its 250-mile maximum range, and following the EVgo “etiquette,” I would have to operate with a 165-mile range […]
