By Stephen Frank on Mar 13, 2020 08:44 pm
This is a chance, during a crisis, to modernize our 19thcentury education system.  We already have an online community college system run by the State.  There are online charter schools.  We have the Kahn academy that is a better teacher, subject by subject then a local school filled with teachers who think their job is […]

By Stephen Frank on Mar 13, 2020 08:41 pm
Yet another school district is joining the brigade of layoffs, led by Oakland, Berkeley and dozens of other districts.  San Diego schools are in trouble—yet the voters said NO to every school bond expect for one on March 3.  The folks are tired of failed schools and higher costs that provide wage increases, but continue […]

Drug Cartel Uses Housing Shortage to Recruit Low Level Dealers

By Stephen Frank on Mar 13, 2020 08:38 pm
The drug cartel is smart.  It was smart enough to create legalized marina in California and many other States.  This brings cover to their illegal activities—how can a cop tell the difference between legal and illegal pot?  Plus, in San Fran and other cities where the DA was elected by George Soros, cops are told […]

‘Turtles on a treadmill’: Joni Ernst blasts ludicrous government waste in scathing Senate speech

By Stephen Frank on Mar 13, 2020 08:35 pm
Government wastes money.  Throw it away.  How else do you explain the putting of turtles on a treadmill to see how slow they go? “The Iowa Republican drew a spotlight to one particularly egregious example of waste, a taxpayer-funded study that blew almost a million dollars putting turtles on treadmills, both dead and alive, then […]

By Stephen Frank on Mar 13, 2020 08:29 pm
Finish high school, learn coding or a profession.  Get a great, well paying job.  No need to pay for college to learn how to riot and bully.  Yet, thanks to government you are paying over $200 billion to allow bigots, hatemongers, terrorists, totalitarians learn about ethnic studies, gender studies and why white people need to […]

Over-Taxed in LA … and Sick of it!

By Stephen Frank on Mar 13, 2020 08:27 pm
California is overtaxed.  The people of Los Angeles are the highest taxed in the State.  It is so bad that in 2019 an LAUSD $500 mill ballot barely received 51% of the vote in L.A. County.  Regulations, the cost of the homeless (one billion spent in 2019 and we have MORE homeless than in 2018). […]

LAO Concerned About Train to Nowhere Violating Law

By Stephen Frank on Mar 13, 2020 08:20 pm
This is no longer a high speed train.  It is a money pit to payoff unions, donors and construction firms.  It has strayed from the law, refused to return $3.2 billion it took from the Feds for a project that does not represent the money given.  Now we have this scam, per the LAO “Key […]

By Stephen Frank on Mar 13, 2020 08:17 pm
The coronavirus can kill us.  Abortion does kill babies.  The Democrats want to stop innocent people being killed by the virus.  At the same time, they wan to use the life saving response to the coronavirus as an excuse to kill babies.  How disgusting.  As Rahm Emmanuel said, never let a crisis go unused. “Senator […]

SB 902 by Weiner: State Changes Residential Zoning WITHOUT Approval by Local Voters

By Stephen Frank on Mar 13, 2020 08:15 pm
Scott Weiner hates your city council.  He hates your right to decide your quality of life and your ability to decide what your city looks like.  Worse, he does not believe in voters or communities.  Like the authoritarian he is, he prefers non-elected officials run your life. “The bill by state Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San […]
