Jeanne, thank you. Your op-ed should be required reading for policy makers. It both made me smile and cry a little bit.

Also, regarding the sheriff, I think all they have to do is apply for an ESA and then they can buy all that crap and get away with it. So many ways for those who have so much to take from those who have so little.

I don't find anything funny about the outrageous fraud perpetrated by MCSO over the past 10 years, or the insane ESA voucher program bankrupting the State, or the irony of Saudi Arabia sucking up resources of our remaining water aquifers as we fight for water rights with other states. Please remember it was Saudi Arabia who bombed the World Trace Center! Throw in the Fake Elector fraud by individuals who betrayed their oaths of office in 2020, which is still pending, or the absurdity of our current State of the Union with the shut down, and I'm just about done. Government corruption and grift is now running rampant in our state and in our country! Only voters can stop this insanity and I'm certainly going to be protesting accordingly. No one can sit this out; it's up to each of us individually to take back our gov't and our morals.

I completely agree with you. I’m angry and some nights the tossing and turning is exhausting. I think Sandy was being sarcastic. I remember during the Viet Nam era and civil rights movement we took to the streets. Now Trump would send in American military troops to arrest or kill us. Remember Kent State?

I never thought I would think Horne had a better policy than anyone, then came Yee. Also never thought I’d agree with Josh Hawley but we must have guardrails for AI. If you think the tech guys are wildly rich and powerful now, just wait. They actually call “human workers are a tax on their business.”

I’m having a terrible time with Substack. When I try to update the app it says it’s unavailable or in another country. Also to get in today I needed a verification code.
