California Now Officially Handing Out Senate Seats Based on Race
The great debate over replacing Kamala Harris wasn’t about qualifications. What qualifications? California Democrats are qualified for little except virtue signaling and racial quotas. And so the debate came down to whether Governor Newsom would replace Kamala Harris, who is half-Jamaican and half-Indian, with a black woman (the assumption was that another half-Indian and half-Jamaican wasn’t an option) or a Latino.

Pharmacy giant Walgreens has closed its 10th store in the San Francisco area, prompting residents to blame rampant shoplifting caused by the city’s soft-on-crime policies.
San Francisco Is Paying $5,000 Per Month For Each Homeless Tent
Homelessness is really expensive for the people who are paying for it. Last year, San Francisco set up six “safe sleeping villages” during the pandemic, including one right outside City Hall. Basically these sites are sanctioned tent camps where the homeless live on city property with bathrooms and free meals. It turns out the city is paying $5,000 per month for each tent.

Rural Californians are fighting to reclaim their state, even if that means starting their own
REDDING, California — Mark Baird is a third-generation Californian who hopes to one day be a first-generation Jeffersonian.
Baird, like many in California’s sprawling, mostly rural north, is disillusioned with his state’s Sacramento-based government, which he believes no longer represents northern interests.
That’s why Baird and many others in the 23 counties above Sacramento have officially declared the reclamation of their state, even if it means breaking away and starting anew in the proposed 51st state of Jefferson, named for the third U.S. president.
California is collapsing – Once seen as a progressive’s paradise, the state is drifting towards a new kind of feudalism
If one were to explore the most blessed places on earth, California, my home for a half century, would surely be up there. The state, with its salubrious climate, spectacular scenery, vast natural resources, and entrepreneurial heritage is home to the world’s fifth-largest economy and its still-dominant technological centre. It is also — as some progressives see it — the incubator of “a capitalism we can believe in”.
A San Francisco Murder Sets Leftists and Social Interest Groups at Odds
On January 28, while attempting to take a photo of a suspicious vehicle cruising in front of his San Francisco home, 76-year-old private investigator Jack Palladino was grabbed by one of the two men in the car and dragged forty feet before falling over backward and lethally striking his head.
Not since the Zebra killings of the 1970s has one murder caused San Francisco’s leftist worthies so much consternation. If you do not know of the Zebra killers, there is a reason why. The killers were black. All 21 of their victims, 14 fatal, were white or Asian. The Zodiac killer worked the same area at roughly the same time, killed far fewer people, and got ten times the attention.
Canceling San Francisco
The city’s school board is busy stripping the names of public schools that honor Lincoln, Washington, and others, even as it refuses to reopen its classrooms.

“All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle,” wrote the city of San Francisco’s namesake, St. Francis of Assisi. Catholics revere the Italian friar — canonized in 1228 — for his great love of animals and all of God’s creation. As the current pope said in adopting Francis as his papal name, St. Francis also advanced the “idea of poverty against the luxury, pride, vanity of the civil and ecclesiastical powers.”
