Who carries the Republican banner in 2028?
Vance
DeSantis
Sanders
Abbot
Rubio
Hayley
KempVance and Rubio will have to figure out a way stay just close enough to Trump’s policies to claim them as their own if they economy improves. Ending the Ukraine Russia conflict won’t hurt.
It would be fun to watch Newsome run on his record. Outside of liberal strongholds, Newie would be as polarizing as Harris. He will pivot to the middle, alienating leftists, but won’t be able to convince conservative voters he has moved on from his socialist agenda.
meh. 🙂
An attractive young lady interviewed for an admin job (20 years ago.) I thought her email address looked like a web address. Yep- Full on lingerie model.Fortunately, she disqualified herself by answering her cell phone a second time after I asked her to turn it off during the interview.
Thinking back to my first office job in ’73, micro minis were a thing. 🙂
The reader comments are priceless.
Kamala running and probably winning will be the final nail in the West Coast’s coffin. I say west coast because it is hard to discern one entrenched left liberal super majority from another. I believe there is a weekly conference call between governors of Cali, OR and WA to exchange creative ways to milk taxpayers.
Mick, your story reminds me of the baseball strike in 94.
Young Dawg (10 at the time) was talking to his grandfather about the strike. His question – that grandpa couldn’t answer – was players make a lot of money. Why do they need more?
“It’s hard to see the difference between this policy and what you’d get if a bunch of 10yos locked the teachers in a closet and rewrote the rules.”
I’ve got 8 yo granddaughters, and they object to you baseless and unfounded characterization. They would laugh at this, stating it looks more like summer vacation than school. Of course, mom is a public school principal.
My dining and living room are the most under utilized rooms in the house. I could board up access to those rooms and never miss them, about 800 sq ft.
Looking at median home prices, cost per sq ft has not gone up that much since 1970. Median home price in 1970 was $24,400 for a 1500 sf home. CPI adjustment puts that home at close to $205k today. Today’s median home is 2200 sf, with a median sell price of $420,000, or roughly $190 sf.
These are not typical California or any west coast metro numbers, but it shows home prices may not be as crazy as they seem. New construction on that 1500 sf home today gets you $285k, which is not surprising when factoring in permits, fees etc.
Someone should burn in hell for this. Starting with Jill Biden. Of course the dems will say it wasn’t the first time a first lady was calling the shots.
Interesting to read differing accounts about who knew what and when regarding Biden. Jake Tapper’s indignation is laughable.
So here is one more point- 14 months ago, Biden gets a clean bill of health. Today, he has stage 4 Prostate cancer. Nothing to see here, move along.
So….when Fetterman was running for Senate it was off limits to discuss his health and ability to serve. Today, dems are alarmed he might not be in full control of his faculties?
Seems the only thing missing is a poor performance in a debate and you have the “Get rid of Biden playbook part II”. His health was fine until he became a liability….
California does not look quite as impressive when you take Chevron, Meta, Tesla and Google out of the picture. Chevron is already out the door, the left is hell bent on destroying Tesla, Meta and Google could leave tomorrow if they choose to do so.
Since 2019: Over 200 companies have relocated their headquarters out of California, including major firms like Chevron and Hewlett-Packard.
In 2023, corporate tax revenue was approximately 50% below forecast, partly due to businesses reducing their presence in the state
Movie production is abandoning LA, finding states other than California much less expensive. Ben Affleck recently blasted Newsome about his lack of support for the movie industry. Rob Lowe noted it was cheaper to fly a hundred people to Ireland than walk across the parking lot to film at Fox.
Ranked per capita, Cali comes in fourth, well behind New York, Massachusetts and Washington, but just ahead of Connecticut, North Dakota and Alaska. California’s GDP as a percentage of US GP suddenly does not look as impressive when figuring in it’s percentage of the population.
OK, I read this 3 times. Twice to make sure it wasn’t from the Onion or Babylon Bee.
For the record, Todd has been blasting Demo Party elites, commenting the rise of Trump has been 10 years in the making as the party failed to address key concerns for most Americans. I assume this is code for DEI, Immigration and reproductive rights.
Blaming party elites and water carrying pundits for covering up Biden’s cognitive decline makes me wonder what type of “journalist” Todd really is.
Mick, seems like a lot clerical errors are happening. Letter to Harvard and another DoD messaging melodrama as recent examples.
A different take on the Harvard dispute. It is fascinating to me that so many businesses and universities just rolled over and spread their collective legs when Biden (aka someone in the WH) issued Executive Order 13985. While the EO did not explicitly state there would be a loss of funding, there was an implicit threat of less favorable treatment in competitive grant programs with a potential loss of funding.
Just my opinion, Trump would have been better off to quietly end EO 13985 and let the DoJ loose, asking universities such as Harvard to explain how their DEI programs, which offer special rights and protections to a small group of individuals, is not a violation of the 1964 Civil Rights act.
