Yep, Iâm really going after the Orange Man. I donât care that he says, or rather said, mean things on Twitter or called Senator Karen, âPocahontasâ during the 2016 campaign. But when he doubles down on stupid, then I must strongly dissent.
In a recent interview with Candace Owens, Trump spewed some zingers that deserve response; even if its just to call a spade, a spade. Oh, sorry is that racist? Anyway, hereâs the Orange Man shooting himself in the foot (or slightly higher) with his base.
However, he quickly turned his attention to the shots themselves, defending their rapid development and deployment as âone of the greatest achievements of mankind.â He said the country would have suffered a similar fate to what was seen during the 1917 Spanish Flu epidemic, which he said killed approximately 100 million people and âended the First World War.â
âThere were no vaccines, there were no anything,â he added.
The president continued to boast about the timeframe in which the shots were developed, saying he âcame up with three vaccines [Johnson & Johnson, Moderna, Pfizer], all are very, very good. I came up with three of them in less than nine months; it was supposed to take 5â12 years.â
âNo,â replied Trump, âthe vaccines work but some people arenât taking them.The ones that get very sick and go to the hospital are the ones that donât take the vaccine, but itâs still their choice.â
Although recognizing that âthe mandates are killing our economyâ and that âpeople canât go to work ⊠because of the mandate,â Trump refused to criticize the shots, instead opting to encourage uptake.
âIâm a big fan of the vaccine. Iâm not going to give that up. Millions and millions of lives Iâve saved.â
Folks, Trump got scammed by the Swamp Monsters (Fauci, et al.). He would be better served to saying that he got scammed by trusting âthe expertsâ but his pride is too great.
Comparing Covid to the Spanish Flu is like some drunk idiot claiming equivalence between John Kerryâs war injuries in Vietnam and Truman dropping âThe Bombâ on Japan in 1945. Clearly there is no equivalence and just the thought that there could be is stupendously dumb.
Fact is that the ones with the jab are just as likely or more to be infected with Covid variants. Per an article that I saw earlier this week, those with the Covid booster are more likely to get Omicron.
In Israel, where most of the population has received a booster shot, 54 of 67 omicron cases, 80%, were people who had received three COVID-19 shots.
If the vaccine is so great, why have more people died of Covid under Biden than Trump? (This is despite Biden changing the definition of a Covid death to a more restrictive standard.)
The federal governmentâŻconsidersâŻmore than 202 million Americans (almost 61% of the eligible) to be âfully vaccinatedâ (aâŻmoving targetâŻgiven the vaccinesâ temporary nature), yet data from Johns Hopkins UniversityâŻreportedâŻin October shows that more Americans died of COVID-19 by that point in 2021 (353,000) than in all of 2020 (352,000).
The main difference between the two is that Trump did allow more treatment options than Biden; that much we know is true because Biden stopped any treatments for Covid that werenât approved by Big Pharma and/or Beltway bureaucrats even when they were found to be effective against Covid. Trump does say that he would not make the shot mandatory. A position Biden once agreed with ⊠until he took over the White House and ownership of the Warp Speed cure developed by his predecessor.
Trump is a better guy on a bad day than Biden ever was, even in the 1980âs when Biden ran for President the first time. Back in the 1980âs, Trump spent his time perfecting the art of the deal while Biden was stumbling to figure out the art of the steal. Even without the Internet, Biden couldnât get away with theft. It took him over 30 years to figure out how to get away with it. The irony is that he was showing signs of dementia before he was finally successful.
I think Trump should not lead with anything Covid related except fully opening the economy and freedom to skip the vax. Meanwhile he needs to see to it that candidates that are loyal to him are elected so instead of Executive Orders, he can put his ideas into law like they should have done when Paul RyanâMr. Fox News Network Boardâwas Speaker of the House.
My advice to Trump is simple, Biden owns Covid now. Do yourself a favor and let him keep it.
California is changing the bargain it made on solar power. Yep, if you want to be cynical, you might believe that the Public Utilities Commission has decided to hit Elon Musk in the pocketbook but theyâre really coming for you Barbara.
Ok, so letâs get the chronology correct. California has shutdown every sort of electrical generating capability in the state except wind and solar.
Nuclear gone
Natural gas gone
Coal gone
Hydroelectric goneâat least until we either get much more rainfall or ration water to LA.
Meanwhile we have outlawed internal combustion engines, forcing everyone into battery powered cars while outlawing fire fighting pumps and electric generators. Genius move!
California has also mandated that all new construction beginning in 2024 must include solar power.
Now, like Nevada did a few years ago, California has significantly altered the bargain.
At a recent PUC meeting, a taxpayer dared to complain, âI thought we had a bargain.â
To which the PUC chair replied, âI am altering the deal. Pray I donât alter it any further.â
PUC Chair with victimized citizen
So, what changed? California now has a new revenue stream. Remember that imaginary budget surplus Gavin says we have for the second year? Apparently, he doesnât either.
Yep, gullible people that think they are saving the planet are about to learn that Communism and fixing imaginary global warming has a cost, one that you get to pay, not Mr. Musk.
Enter the California Public Utilities Commission which has apparently decided itâs time to alter the deal. This new plan called Net Metering 3.0 hasnât been passed yet but is expected to be voted on next month. If it does pass, the state will start charging new solar installations a fee based on the size of their system. The fee is $8 per month for every kW of generating equipment you have installed on the roof. So if you have an 8kW system, youâll owe SCE an additional $64 per month or over $700 per year. You donât get anything for that money, itâs basically just a tax on everyone who installs solar equipment.
In addition, the new plan will reduce the amount the power company pays you for your excess energy from about 25 cents per kilowatt hour (still less than what the power company charges you for a kilowatt hour of power) down to about 6 cents per kWh. And that means thereâs no way to break even on your bill anymore unless you also install an expensive battery system to save the excess energy for your own use. Of course the batter costs almost as much as the entire system.
If this article makes you angry, you ainât seem nothinâ yet. Wait until they come after your electric vehicles, complete with the mileage tax; then everyone will get to pay.
It has been a while so we will update the goings on of former Windsor Mayor Democrat Dominic Foppoli, not that anyone cares, but here goes. Dominic bizarrely declared himself âcleared of all wrongdoingâ and decided to run for office in 2022 as mayor. Yes, some folks maybe delusional, he is just flat out dumb.
Foppoli did not respond to requests for comment. But a source close to Foppoli told KTVU that he is running for his old seat â and that Foppoli says heâs been cleared of any wrongdoing.
Town councilmember Debora Fudge said, “Iâve seen the paperwork and I have no clue what Dominicâs real intentions are because we have not spoken.
Fudge said the fact that Foppoli filed the paperwork without any explanation “is not being able to take the temperature in a room.”
She added, “I canât see that Dominic would have any support for running for any office in Windsor or anywhere at this point.”
Thank god you weighed in Debora, I was waiting with baited breath to hear from you. Iâm so very sorry Dominic didnât disclose to you his future plans in advance. Since you know youâre the benevolent queen of Windsor. As far as Dominic not being able to take the temperature of the room, he took what he wanted from his victims you douche. As far as not having support, well Bill Clinton got re-elected, stranger things have happened.
Yes, folks thatâs right, he was declared innocent apparently, no press conference by the California AG or the Sonoma County Sheriff. Sadly, that was wishful thinking. It got bad for Dominic in November, as the Sheriff raided his home; taking several pieces of electronic media.
The objects taken from Foppoli’s home last Wednesday include two laptops, three iPads, a cellphone, a recording device, camera, USB drive and a DVD or CD, according to the filed search warrant, which SFGATE obtained from the Sonoma County Sheriff’s Office. The warrant reveals the items were singled out as potential “evidence that tends to show a felony was committed.”
Allow me to explain this one, innocent people, myself included, routinely have our houses raided by the police, its standard operating procedure hereâŠok, I canât anymore.
Folks this is really bad news for Dominic, judges donât just sign off on warrants for police to raid someoneâs house. They do so after being convinced the crime was committed and the evidence seized will result in a forthcoming arrest warrant being issued. This is because if zero evidence is obtained, the judge has mud all over his face. Also, another person came forward with allegations against Foppoli, the story is behind a paywall so I couldnât access it.
Commentary: The USS Foppoli continues to circle the drain, and it wonât be pretty for him nor his supporters. That is a lot of electronic media that was seized, which tells me quite a bit of video/photo and other evidence exists. That is gross and disgusting. Anyone who films themselves, their partner or both having/doing/partaking in sexual acts has major issues. First of all, the idea of watching someone else having sex is gross, the idea of watching yourself on instant replay is disgusting. Think of not just you but your partner. However, the truth is Dominic is such a loser he is used to watching other people have sex online, itâs called porn. Sadly, it leads to bad habits/beliefs etc. being formed i.e., the idea of ârape fantasiesâ and the like. You get so used to watching it on movies or YouTube that it becomes real, much like politics, violence, etc. itâs not the real world, itâs quite literally fantasy. Dominic likely filmed these acts figuring it would exonerate him laterâŠquite the opposite will be occurring. It may be fun with your group of guy friends, maybe even the occasional female to joke about filming your sex acts, even using it as blackmailâŠbut to normal people it isnât funnyâŠitâs a crime.
Most of these women who have come forward have brought up some aspect of being filmed/possibly being filmed, never with their consent. This is likely another crime, similar to a warrantless wiretap, CA is a 2-party state, and if one party didnât consent itâs a crime. We believe evidence exists, quite a bit of it. We also believe an arrest warrant is forthcoming. We also believe Florida wants to move but California is taking the lead since the majority of the crimes took place here.
To speak directly to his followers (I know you read this blog, you forwarded it to an attorney who accused us of Libel Per Se) how do you all feel now? I hope you feel good. Congrats on defending an alleged rapist, serial sexual harasser. Apparently, you all feel recorded porn/photos/videos etc. are taboo and funny? Iâm sure you feel like Dominic still has done nothing wrong. Iâm sure you believe the videos will clear him; he is a nice man right? I doubt that will be occurring, actually I hope he does the perp walk Christmas Eve! Sadly, your leader is vacationing in Italy right now because he knows his freedom is short lived, he is on borrowed time. The joke is on youâŠthis blog is headquartered several counties away, none of these bloggers have been to Windsor, and you were convinced it was a conspiracy. You even had a low rent lawyer write a mean comment on the Sabbath no less!Â
Now if I can speak to DominicâŠnot that you would listen but here goes. I actually feel sorry for you, from some who I spoke with in Santa Rosa you were a dorky, awkward loser in high school at Cardinal Newman. You were a loner who tried to fit in too hard, you had rich parents, so you compensated that way. When you struck out with the ladies you aimed younger, and younger, and younger. This was the start of your undoing. Your actions at yourâs and my Alma Mater say it all, we met a few times, always a mid-twenty-year-old hanging with the freshman and myself. I know you fancied yourself a ladiesâ man, and you had a car and ability to ply us with boozeâŠ.it made you a disgusting creep. After the ill-fated night I had with you I was done. After George W Bush got re-elected, you insisted, I fly with you and several freshman girls to DC to see his Inauguration, I declined. You called me a loser among other thingsâŠand maybe I am. Yes, I passed on a trip where you promised me booze, girls, and other thingsâŠcongrats you are a better partier then me. You developed a taste for the grape and had money. You infiltrated groups with no intention of doing good. It was about âgetting luckyâ and in essence picking out a trophyâŠitâs sad. You became a public official and you just got worse. Dominic read the SF Chronicle Article; the stories are flat our cringe worthy. Then to find out you filmed these acts is gross, but I guess you analyze your performance and give a breakdown Monday Night Football Style? Thatâs about as bad as taking a girlâs underwear as some kind of trophy. Hope you had your fun, because its curtains for you soon. I would start Googling countries with no extradition laws, because I donât think you will be having a good year in 2022. But the good news is you arenât a loser!
Thanks for helping our blog here go viral, we average double digit hits per blog, but my stuff on Foppoli generated earth shattering records! We were contacted by the local paper, and a prominent attorney (one who I would not want to face in court mind you!) life is good here for us at the blog.
PS The enablers of Dominic had better hope a) I never get elected in this state and b) hope my preferred party never takes power. Because I will be introducing legislation to change CA rape laws. First it would be a boomerang back law, so if a case is discovered the statute of limitations would go back 5 years prior for any further crimes, and so on and so on. This stops creeps like Dominic from running out the clock, or threatening victims. The second change would be any and all enablers who knew would get charged with rape crimes as well and go on the registry. This stops the âwell I saw a lot of bad things, and wish I said something like his ex-campaign manager told me. You may not have penetrated or forced yourself into the girl, but if you didnât stop it, youâre an accomplice.
Folks have you heard the words âdefund the police lately?â Of course, you havenât, since our inner cities are now crime riddled utopias, the idea of calling to removing police from the streets is toxic. Key word in my last sentence was âidea.â You see the liberals in the country donât change their beliefs, they change a buzz word.
What is happening in big cities nationwide right now is a massive crime surge, violent crime especially. You donât need to watch the news; you can see it with your own eyes. We have been releasing ânon-violentâ folks from prison. These folks mixed with reduced morale at the local precinct, and city councils who are pressuring the local DA not to charge on certain offenses. The result is a powder keg about to blow. The Democrats saw all this, and they know the suburban moms (aka the ones who supported Trump the first time, not the second) are having second thoughts on âdefunding.â So, they changed the rhetoric, now itâs a vaccine mandate.
Cities got smart, why call it defunding when the word mandate works just as well? Itâs not about your health and safety, right? That officer standing guard on the corner? The officer who pulled you over? Well, they better not be unwashed! So as a result, a mandate works here. Again, itâs a public health crisis, right? Most know the public safety workers voted overwhelmingly for Trump and are most likely to be resistant to a vaccine. The answer is simple, order a mandate, if they donât comply fire them. Why not, we get to shrink to police force and blame the officers not elected Democrats.
This is playing out all over the country, there is discussion of entire firehouses and police precincts shutting down. Look at New York City a place where crime has skyrocketedâŠthe answer is less police due to a mandate! Remember when NYC cut one billion in police funding.
San Francisco has become a lawless region, parts of LA have vigilante justice. The problem will be getting worse not better, as these mandates are set to go into place over the next couple weeks.
Do not kid yourselves loyal readers, defund the police is alive and well, it just exists under a different name. Calling it a mandate and invoking public safety is the new buzzword. This is playing out in all big cities, hopefully it wonât come to one near you. We used to believe in freedoms here, sadly since 9/11 we have given those up, and put them in the hands of bureaucrats and a media that selectively reports and edits as they see fit. The virus isnât killing the masses, it seems like it targets specific groups. Also why is it that today we have entire generations who want to go after peopleâs livelihoods? I think some do not understand the loss of a job leads indirectly to a loss of housing, transportation, food and mental state. Arenât those things what the Left and BLM argue so much that they are in favor of?
Hiring police is not easy, it costs a ton of money and time. The candidate pool for recruiting has dried up. Now we have mandates. What will they mandate next?
Yep, I bet you missed that headline last week, but it was there if you could connect the dots. I mean what else could you conclude when you read that beginning in 2024 California will outlaw electrical generators.
California became the first state in the nation to outlaw the sale of gas-powered leaf blowers and lawnmowers in an attempt to curb emissions, a move met with both positive feedback and frustration.
Signed Saturday, the new law orders regulators to ban the sale of small off-road engines (SORE). While this is a broad category that includes generators, lawn equipment and pressure washers, it comprises a type of small engine on pace to produce more pollution each year than passenger vehicles.
Try this article for a more comprehensive understanding of the law.
California just banned the sale of gasoline powered backup generators, lawn mowers, small gas powered fire fighting pumps, and other small stationary engines, as part of their drive to reduce CO2 emissions.
The text requires regulators to consider â⊠(E) Expected availability of zero-emission generators and emergency response equipment. âŠâ, so there is no doubt they plan to cover backup generators and emergency fire fighting equipment if they can.
This is beyond serious. Imagine trying to fight the fire approaching your house, only to have a low battery light start flashing on your fire fighting water pump. Or someone who requires powered medical equipment, like oxygen generators or sleep apnea devices, struggling through an extended power outage without proper treatment for their health condition.
Gasoline powered equipment, barring a mechanical failure, works as long as you can keep it supplied with gasoline. But battery equipment needs power to recharge it. Where do you get more power, if the sky is covered with smoke or clouds, or the solar panels are covered in dust, snow or ash, and the power lines are down?
Yet, with startling shortsightedness, the state assembly has sent Governor Gavin Newsom a bill that will effectively eliminate a go-to backup: gas-powered generators. The bill (AB-1346) lumps gas-powered generators in with the offending landscaping equipment and all other âsmall off-road engines,â referring to them as SOREs. It âencouragesâ the California Air Resources Board (the stateâs own sort of EPA) to âadopt cost-effective and technologically feasible regulations to prohibit engine exhaust and evaporative emissions from new small off-road enginesâ and to consider âexpected availability of zero-emission generators.â
When the power went out last August, says Collin Blackwell of Eldorado Hills, California, âWe went out and bought an $800 generator, so that way we could have the fridge powered up in the garage at least and be able to have food and everything in the house.â Mark Galloway of Cameron Park said he lives in a mountain community where losing power is fairly common. âYou should have something, so having the backup generator and things like thatâI think itâs on you to really take care of that,â he said. âItâs not like itâs something that you canât plan for.â
Californians who have been seen power supplies become more unreliable in recent years have increasingly turned to gas-powered electric generators to keep the lights on during âpublic safety power shutoffs.â
According to the industry trade group, there are 1.5 million portable generators in use in California today. The average gas-powered generator can provide 10-12 hours of power to run lights, phone chargers, refrigerators, microwaves and more, with a simple refueling keeping them powered another half-day.
Ok, given the above, can you start to see why Newsom must think he has or will soon fix PG&E?
I mean, what utility has the most voluntary power disruptions?
What utility starts half the major conflagrations that California experiences in their service area?
What utility is driving the sale of portable generators in their service area?
What utility is responsible for the homeownerâs insurance crisis in rural areas?
What utility is even less popular than our state legislature?
So, if Newsom and his brothers under the dome have the stones to ban private sector electrical generation and portable fire pumps, then a reasonable person can only conclude that he will fix PG&E, solve fires in our mismanaged forests, and replace the current system with a more reliable and redundant electrical grid.
If Newsom has failed to fix at least these problems, then Newsom and his fellow big city Democrats have said that they are willing to forfeit the lives of everyone in rural areas. Folks this law prevents you from protecting your life and property. It hits the elderly and poor the hardest. People that need to refrigerate insulin or keep the 02 flowing or the AC on when itâs 115 outside, will have to do without. Generators are about more than preserving the stuff you bought at Costco, but shouldnât you have the right to keep it cold when PG&Eâs lawyers tell them to pull the plug on your neighborhood?
San Francisco Waterfront homes burning 1989
Can you imagine the fire department showing up and letting your place burn to the ground with grandma inside because they canât use their portable fire pump? Or the emergency workers canât cut you out of the car with their portable equipment because their equipment relies on gasoline?
Portable equipment in use by rescue workers
Does Gavin really not remember all the gasoline powered fire pumps used to keep San Francisco from burning to the ground after the 1989 earthquake during the World Series? Or the emergency equipment used when the elevated portion of the MacArthur freeway collapsed? Why is Gavin the only one that doesnât have vivid memories of where he was on that day?
Portable equipment used to free trapped folks and recover the dead
So, either Gavin Newsom and his fellow Democrats have fixed all the problems mentioned in this blog or they are willing to kill a lot of people to save us from the myth of global warming. Also, this policy has the effect of preventing poor and middle-class folks from leaving the big cities that Democrats control. Guess rural living is only for the very wealthyâkind of like dining at the French Laundry.
I get it; youâre collectively saying âwho?â Raimondo is the former governor of tiny little Rhode Island who âfailed upwardsâ by being anointed Commerce Secretary by the current Democrat Party. I wonât say Joe Biden because we all know he âaint callinâ the shots.â Raimondo who is famous for shutting her state down during Covid, might just be what pure evil is. Like all other Democrat governors and weak-kneed Republican ones, under the fake guise of Covid being the plague, she actually stopped commerce. I guess she deserved promotion?
Raimondo was approved by the Senate and most recently made headlines again for wanting to use the Defense Production Act (DPA) to produce more âelectronic chipsâ like the ones in computers, and most new cars.Â
âThe Biden administration is considering invoking a Cold War-era national security law to force companies in the semiconductor supply chain to provide information on inventory and sales of chips, Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said Thursday.
The goal is to alleviate bottlenecks that have idled U.S. car production and caused shortages of consumer electronics and to identify possible hoarding, she said in an interview.
Her team for months has sought clarity into how companies allocate their semiconductor supply. But previous meetings that convened firms from different industrial sectors havenât led to increased transparency and many companies have refused to hand over business data to the government.
The Commerce Department is now asking companies to fill out questionnaires within 45 days providing supply chain information. The request is voluntary but Raimondo said she warned industry representatives that she might invoke the Defense Production Act or other tools to force their hands if they donât respond.
âWhat I told them is, âI donât want to have to do anything compulsory but if they donât comply, then theyâll leave me no choice,ââ she said. âI said today weâre evaluating all of our options right now, all the tools. I hope not to go there but we need to see some progress and we definitely need compliance.â
I will go ahead and say it. What an evil b***h this women is. Hand over your data to the government? Fill out questionnaires? What the heck is this? Compliance of what? Just remember folks she is from the government, and she is here to help! Big shout out to the ânever Trumpersâ I say to them I hope they reap what they sow. Things may be bad but at least the Orange Man isnât tweeting mean things!
If you are wondering, the DPA is a large government order that essentially requires business to adapt and do anything possible to ramp up production of needed materials for national defense. The DPA has been around for since 9/8/1950 around the Korean War I believe. Trump used this during early Covid stages essentially forcing Ford/GM and others to make ventilators since, well every American would be on oneâŠ. because Covid.
Now apparently computer chips are a vital national security thing, I guess we need to make sure junior has a faster laptop to play Grand Theft Auto, or my new F-150 super duty can be finally put together. Since you know those are real priorities right now.
My biggest gripes are this. Benevolent Queen Raimondo shut her state down, and kept it shut, not following science, she was following Fauci. Now she wants entire industries to not only work but work harder. Yeah, did you know any person ignoring her decree about DPA is subject to a felony and a $10,000 fine? All while government workers, most corporationâs office staffs, long term unemployed, and executives stay at home, because errrrr Covid. Yeah. Makes no sense to me. Push paper? Well, you can do that at home. Work in a factory? Get your butt to work and prepare for 60-hour work weeks! No time off, no vacation. This is a decree from your benevolent queen.
Sadly, idiots like Raimondo honestly think this decree will help. The worst part is, more and more workers will simply walk off the job, it simply isnât fair to them to sacrifice while others stay at home. We have seen it play out at Frito Lay and Oreo plants across the country, with workers walking off the job due to conditions and poor work life balance. Sadly, Raimondo and the Democrats will never understand this. Maybe that is why the jobs report wasnât that great the other day?
Hopefully I can get a chip from China for my new laptop or my new truck soon!
The Chief
(Editorâs Note: President Trump was accused of xenophobia and hating minorities when he expressed concerns about microchip production being vital to our economy and saying that it should be in the US and not overseas. Raimondo invoking DPA is another case of symbolism over substance. She is grandstanding on an issue which she has no control over. )
Folks we all know that Americaâs citizens are honest, hard-working folks; just ask any politician. Conversely, we all know that our leaders would sell-out their dear old granny for another term in office. Stuck in the middle are Americaâs families.
Families are faced with the question of where to send their child/children to college. I know this process can be a daunting task. My son is looking at a college with an annual tuition of $50K plus room and board. Given the high cost of college, perhaps you should rethink college.
Why, you may ask? We have solid proof that college is a waste of money.
How? We have data from people without four-year degrees self-reporting their 2019 earnings to the government. If widely circulated, the data we are about to present would shatter the myth that college is the path to wealth. Â The data that we are about to present is not manipulated by government bureaucrats or defenders of college. Why encumber yourself with debt when you can earn the wages that we are about to present for more menial jobs?
What you are about to read is data that was randomly collected during a one-week period processing unemployment claims at Californiaâs Employment Development Department. You may ask how I know this stuff is true and all I can tell you is that the following wage information was visually verified by our blogâs staff.

Analysis
Gospel truth, the highest paid person in our list was a maid who made $950,000. I guess that she learned from Al Capone that if you report illicit income, they canât send you to prison for tax evasion.
The Beauty Operator Apprentice was one that I didnât recognize. I had to ask the wife. Her understanding of the job is that this babe is the one sweeping up the hair clippings after you get a haircut. I never knew people pushing a broom were paid $65,000.
I tried searching for Abstract Manager on the Internet but came up with nothing that made sense. Given the wage scale, youâd think they were government employees, but we all know that government never lays off anyone. With a pay range of $83K to $300K, it must be a good gig.
The last job that needs special remarks is the General Maintenance/Janitor gig. Please note the wage of $150K. Folks this person claims to have earned this wage in Nevada County California. Per Nevada County statistics, the per capita income for this county in 2018 was just over $37K.
Hopefully by now, you are suspecting that I have withheld some information. If you think this is the case, then you are correct. Remember that I said that these wages were self-reported. This is true but I didnât say why and therein is the rub. These wages were reported by people applying for California unemployment. The State category in my list is the state the person lives in now. Oh, none of these folks had any reported income on record with the State of California.
Who said crime doesnât pay? These folks are doing all right or so they would have you believe.
Final thought, I hope this small widow into the fraud making its way thru EDD would be of interest to our readers.
Well, it took about 18 months, but New York finally flattened something. Nope, not Covid, but their governor Andrew Cuomo. Cuomoâonce believed to be a top 2024 presidential frontrunnerâresigned in disgrace after the floodgates were finally opened about his repeated sexual assaults and harassment. Please donât confuse the âLuv Govâ with his weightlifter, health nut, Trump hating brother, Chris who doubles at Andrewâs PR guy on CNN. Andrew may wish to take advice from his brother Chris, since it appears the two are father son, more than brothersâŠ. just saying, but now on to the story.
Chris Cuomo
NY Governor Andrew Cuomo was accused back in December of last year of sexual harassment by multiple women. The New York State Assembly started impeachment proceedings in MarchâŠ. once they found out they werenât impeaching Trump or seeking his tax returns, they basically folded up and quit the investigation. At the end of February New York AG (Attorney General) Letitia James announced her own investigation into Cuomo. The results and report finally came out on August 10th. Trump would have been impeached about 50 times over in the same amount of time. Justice Kavanaugh ironically was crucified, in less time, with a fraction of the charges, and no evidence at all we remind you.
PDF above is complete New York A.G. Report on Cuomo.
In the meantime, prior to the report from AG James coming out, the entire congressional delegation of New York (itâs pretty big) called on him to resign, both senators, and NYC Mayor and fellow scum bag Bill DeBlasio. It was a rare showing of bipartisanship. Cuomo ignored it, and so did his brother on CNN Chris. Funny because Chris fawned all over his brother during his mishandling of Covid in nursing homes, more on this later.
Andrew “Luv Gov” Cuomo
I was not going to publish the names of the victims, but BLM always says âsay their namesâ so here goes, names and actions of Cuomo:
Charlotte Bennett
In late February 2021, Charlotte Bennett, an executive assistant and health policy advisor to Cuomo, accused him of sexual harassment, which included questions about her sex life. In a March 5 video interview with CBS Evening News anchor Norah O’Donnell, Bennett said that during a one-on-one meeting in the governor’s office on June 5, 2020, Cuomo implied “that I was old enough for him and he was lonely.” Bennett went on to claim that Cuomo’s office director took the state’s mandatory sexual harassment training for him, “I was there. I heard [the office director] say, ‘I can’t believe I’m doing this for you’ and making a joke about the fact that she was completing the training for him. And then I heard her at the end ask him to sign the certificate.”
Anna Ruch
In early March 2021, a third person, Anna Ruch, a member of the Obama administration (who later served on Joe Biden’s presidential campaign), said that when they were speaking at a wedding reception Cuomo put a hand on her back, that she removed it, and that he then placed his hands on her face cheeks and asked if he could kiss her. A friend photographed Cuomo touching her face.
Ana Liss
On March 6, 2021, Ana Liss, a policy and operations aide to Cuomo from 2013 to 2015, became the third former aide to accuse Cuomo of sexual harassment. Liss said Cuomo called her “sweetheart,” touched her on her lower back while they were at a reception, and also once kissed her hand after she stood up from her desk.
Karen Hinton
Also on March 6, Karen Hinton, a former press aide for Cuomo when he served as the US Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, said that in 2000, Cuomo had, while meeting with her in a California hotel room, hugged her in an “inappropriate” and “unethical” embrace. Hinton has more recently worked for Cuomo rival New York Mayor Bill de Blasio.
Brittany Commisso
On March 9, 2021, the Times Union of Albany reported an anonymous member of the governor’s Executive Chamber staff had accused Cuomo of inappropriate touching. On March 11, the same newspaper reported she said Cuomo called her to his mansion, reached under her blouse, and fondled her. Cuomo denied the allegation.
On April 7, 2021, an unnamed executive assistant to Cuomo alleged that she had been summoned to the governor’s mansion in November 2020 to help Cuomo with a problem with his iPhone. After reaching him, Cuomo allegedly rose from his desk and began groping her. After the aide told him his behavior would get him in trouble, Cuomo then shut the door and said “I don’t care.” He returned and groped one of her breasts under her bra by reaching under her blouse. She then left following the groping. A month later she claimed that Cuomo told her to cover-up what had occurred. Her identity was revealed on August 8, 2021 as Brittany Commisso.
Kaitlin (last name not reported as Jenner)
On March 12, Kaitlin (last name unreported), who formerly worked for the governor’s office, alleged that Cuomo had made her feel uncomfortable in various situations, with his comments, questions, requests, and invasions of her personal space. She did not allege inappropriate touching or explicit sexual propositions.
Jessica Bakeman
Jessica Bakeman, a former member of the Capitol press corps who worked for Politico New York, wrote about the atmosphere for women in Albany, New York. On March 12, for the New York magazine website, she wrote that Cuomo had touched her on her arms, shoulders, the small of her back, and waist in 2012, and put his arm around her back and his hand on her waist posing for a picture at a holiday party in 2014 (she wrote that “For years, I would relive that moment at the holiday party”), and made multiple “humiliating” comments during her time covering him. She wrote of the incident in 2014: “Keeping his grip on me as I practically squirmed to get away from him, the governor turned my body to face a different direction for yet another picture. He never let go of my hand.”
Valerie Bauman
On March 18, Valerie Bauman, a reporter for Bloomberg, said in a tweet that during Cuomo’s tenure as New York Attorney General from 2007 to 2010, there was a period of “rampant sexism and sexual harassment.” Cuomo allegedly also made her uncomfortable with unwanted flirting and eye contact. She also claimed that in 2007, upon meeting her, “He took my hand, entered my personal space and looked into my eyes as he announced, ‘Hello, Iâm Andrew Cuomo'”.]
Alyssa McGrath
On March 19, Alyssa McGrath, the first current employee to come forward publicly, spoke to The New York Times claiming Cuomo chronically ogled female aides like herself, commenting about their appearances in a way McGrath found inappropriate. McGrath also said that the aide who alleged Cuomo sexually assaulted her in the Executive Mansion “described the encounter in detail to her after it was made public in a report in the Times Union last week.” McGrath claimed that Cuomo told her not to talk with the anonymous aide about the incident.
Sherry Vill
During a March 29, 2021 Zoom news conference with an attorney, Sherry Vill alleged that Cuomo kissed her cheek in front of family members while inspecting her flood-damaged house during a May 28, 2017 visit to her Rochester-area home following a flood. Vill said the kiss was of a “highly sexual manner.â Cuomo also kissed Vill for a second time on the cheek outside her home in a âvery aggressive manner.”
Unnamed state trooper
According to the August 2021 report, Cuomo met the state trooper in November 2017 and lobbied to hire her as part of his security detail despite her not satisfying the requirements for the post; she was indeed hired, and Cuomo later inappropriately touched her stomach and back, and also made inappropriate comments.
First unnamed state entity employee
According to the August 2021 report, Cuomo met this unnamed state entity employee at an event in September 2019, where he tapped and grabbed her buttocks while they were posing for photographs.
Second unnamed state entity employee
According to the August 2021 report, Cuomo in March 2020 made inappropriate comments to this unnamed state entity employee, a doctor, who had administered a nasal swab test on Cuomo at a press conference.
Virginia Limmiatis
According to the August 2021 report, Cuomo met energy company employee Virginia Limmiatis at an event in May 2017, where he touched her chest with his fingers.
Governor Cuomo finally stepped down 8/24, but on his way out, he commuted the sentences of 4 murderers, which tells me he will be running for something again soon, likely DA. I say this because it seems like a pre-requisite to brandish your anti-law enforcement, pro crime policies to make yourself desirable to the Democrat base. (It worked in Los Angeles so why not?) Whilst doing so, he basically said he was innocent, and this was all one big witch hunt. Isnât call this a âwitch huntâ a sexist way of saying it was the womenâs fault not his?
My commentary on this is simple but may come off as male chauvinist. First off Cuomo is wealthy, son of a former governor (Mario) and has been in politics quite literally his whole life. He should be able to get with almost any women he wants, it shouldnât be that hard. (Didnât we recently write about a mayor that behaved like this? — editor) Why the harassment? And by the way I read quite a bit of the AG report, he is a gross sicko of a human. Telling aides and staffers to âsit on his lapâ like he is some shopping mall Santa Clause?Â
Andrew Cuomo, the new Bad Santa
This guy literally seemed to make lewd comments or gestures with any member of the opposite sex he came in contact with. It truly is a stunning fall from grace for a man who could have been governor until he didnât want it anymore. Especially with all the favorable press he got during Covid.
Speaking of Covid did anyone see how the new governor, Kathy Hochul, on her first day on the job released the âreal numberâ of deaths in nursing homes under Cuomoâs rule? Yeah, itâs an additional 12,000. Yup, now it makes sense ⊠all the refrigerated trucks. What a low life scumbag this guy was. Not only did he kill your grandparents/parents he then lied and covered it up.Â
Not to be outdone, Joe Biden said Cuomo did a great job as governor. This just begs for comparing trapped Americans in Afghanistan with trapped Americans in New York nursing homes.
Kind of ironic, all his harassment and assaults of womenâŠ.to think he was replaced with New Yorkâs first women governor. LOL
Troll
BTW that headlineâŠ. kind of Babylon Bee worthy, isnât it?
So, this past Saturday was the California Republican Party Gubernatorial recall election endorsing convention. It was not held in a hotel or conference room it was done virtually.Â
Folks, the CAGOP has been misrun for years, and yet no one seems to really care. You had Tom Del Beccaro drinking to excess and using the delegate list as a dating service, Ron Nehring who flew frequently to Australia; not trying to start or fuel a rumor but I heard there was a mistress involved here. I do not know much about Jim Brulte or his reign, but I know the party no longer has any money. We now have first Latinx chair Jessica Millan Patterson, and to say she is a disaster is putting it mildly. Patterson makes over $250k a year, her counterpart in the very much dominant Democrat Party makes less than half that.
But on to the endorsing convention.
First of all, why is the party endorsing a candidate? Itâs a non-partisan race, due to it being a recall. The party should only take an endorsement of; Yes to recall Comrade Newsom. Let the chips fall where they may after. Well for some reason, a rumor was started that former San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer wanted an endorsement, it was parroted around as if it were gospel. Faulconer did not want the endorsement; actually, no candidate did. This was being pushed from the inside of the party headquarters, by Shawn Steel, Harmeet Dhillon, and Jessica Patterson. Again, Faulconer did not want to seek the endorsement, and frankly why would he want to? Registration is at 24% statewide, itâs a kiss of death.
So, the week of the convention, a movement started to have a âno endorsement voteâ which led to a direct appeal from Shawn Steel and Harmeet Dhillion (there are those names again) to not endorse. The convention started and literally only half the delegates showed up to vote, roughly 800. This is due to the CAGOP making delegates pay $50 for the right to cast their vote. I call this a pole tax, yet 800 willingly paid. The motion to not endorse passed overwhelmingly with about 80% or so voting in favor. Steel and Dhillon were revered as folks who âstopped the steal;â however, the reality is that they were the conductors of this scheme. You see, the party charged $50 per delegate which times 800 equals roughly $40K they raised. Since the convention was virtual there were virtually zero expenses. Thankfully half the delegates didnât fall for this pay to play tax scheme, sadly the other half did.Â
Faulconer did not want the endorsement just to say it again. This was a drill run by Jessica Patterson via her Lieutenantâs Dhillon and Steel. You see Dhillon is a former ACLU lawyer who once was viewed as unacceptable to be vice chair of the party however she was elected and has since been re-elected. Shawn Steel is the husband of Congressperson (we donât do gender here) Michelle Park Steel. Better known to me as the serpent from the Garden of Eden. Where there is money, endorsements, or power; you can always see Steel slithering around. But the delegates and party continue to elect these folks as they now serve as national committee delegates. Sheep do sheep things.
Congrats on paying $50 to endorse no one and taking the principled stand against a candidate who didnât even want the endorsement. Hope this all works out but it sounds like the party made money, consultants likely made money, and you parted with $50. Aaron Park put it on his blog the convention lasted so short the price per minute made phone sex a cheaper alternative. (His words not mine.) Is it a wonder why several GOP electedâs always seem to side with the Democrats on tax hikes and the party doesnât care? The party apparatus just taxed their own activists, and they didnât seem to care either. Where is the outrage!
Cable must have broken an extended family member of mine. I do not know what is worse, him saying that only Republicans aren’t getting vaccinated or that he may actually believe this. First of all, you cannot be more ignorant or out of touch, secondly this is flat not true.
First of all, what happened to âmy body, my choiceâ? Also, what happened to âthis is a Trump vaccine, and we donât support itâ? Well, to answer the first, my body, my choice is only true with abortions, the secondâŠwell the dead turned out and Biden won. Now itâs his vaccine!
Letâs just delve into the vaccination stats on a state-by-state basis if you will. Letâs start with California, since the World Headquarters of Reallyright.com is domiciled there. This handy-dandy map Iâm linking shows the percentage of folks fully vaccinated.Â
Vaccination Map captured 07-21-2021
CA checks in at 47% and change. Iâm no Rhoades Scholar, but GOP registration in CA is 23% not 53%. Additionally, letâs delve into our home county, Sacramento. Specifically, I will hone in on North Highlands, specifically 95660 zip code.Â
The County tool shows 40% as of this past weekend. I pick on North Highlands as it has a very large black population, again, not GOP voters. If you wish to get technical, the southernmost zip codes; the delta, Rio Vista, etc, show north of 70% inoculation, these are GOP areas.
My point here is this has nothing to do with party registration at all; itâs ignorant to think it does. President Trump was more than willing to tout the vaccine, even getting the jab on live TV to prove its safety. Joe Biden and others have made this political. It breaks down multiple ways, as such Democrats cannot process it since liberalism is a brain disease.
First the older folks were/have been cooped up by their kids during the height of the lockdowns the shots bought their freedom, most older folks skew Republican.
Secondly the working folks who travel, they received the shot in large numbers since most places require it for you to fly anymore. While you could produce a negative test, they likely would create more hoops to jump through. Again, these are folks who work, so likely skewing heavily GOP here.
People who work in government buildings, this will be a mixed bag as rules still provide work from home options, this likely brings the average down, as if one works from home, he doesnât interact with others.
Here are the problem areas.
Folks who are black; there is a heavy distrust in their government here when it comes to vaccinations. I know several who vote Democrat (oh god the horror) who refuse to be vaccinated. This is a very large Democrat voting bloc, donât believe me, nut its true.
Folks who are Hispanic; same as above, but also add in the immigration issue. This group tends to work extremely hard and can ill afford for a complication to take them out of commission for even a day or two. Again, this group votes heavily Democrat.
This is not a blog to highlight racial tensions, itâs just to show how ignorant some folks are when it comes to vaccinations. Personally, I would peg the figures like this.
Folks over 65: 80% or more are fully vaccinated Folks over 55: 75% or more vaccinated 25-45 demographic: 20% or less. Remember this group âcanât die from Covidâ and arenât likely to even get sick from it. 18-25: Folks at a public college or university will skew the numbers higher, but I do not see high figures here either.
