That’s not football.

I was replying to this, along with the rest of the same post, where you describe California as the biggest economy, biggest mfgr., and had an influx of illegals in the last three years. “Back on track,” unless you designate it as the wrong track, is saying that things are going well, but they’re not. Newsom is being sued for his egg prices, he’s preparing to raise taxes some more even after cutting healthcare for illegals. Cities are being vandalized, and law enforcement officers are being attacked. Things are getting worse. You said “back on track.” Then you try to deny saying it. Maybe you forgot, which would be understandable. You’re not fairyin your way out of this one.

Does that mean you’re an expert in idiocy? Or just an ex spurt?

Yes, California is a large, populous place that manufactures quite a bit of stuff, so is China. Lots of states have more manufacturing jobs per capita than California. The economy is large for the same reason, but to say it’s good means you haven’t bought a house, or gas, or paid taxes there recently.

Do you just make stuff up and run with it?

Non responsive. That’s not an answer to the question I asked. You said: I asked:

Most of the country, save Martha’s Vineyard, has experienced population growth over the last three years.

California is a beautiful state with wonderful weather, but it’s like a bowl of cereal. If you take out all the fruits and nuts, all you’re left with is the flakes.

No, it’s just a dog on thread.

Are there climatologists who claim to be experts? Or is that a badge that only you can bestow?

I’d trust a good, experienced, meteorologist over a climatologist. They both use the same data, the same tools, but the meteorologist is a lot less prone to groupthink.

Comprehensive FBI opens 'grand conspiracy' probe on weaponization, opening door to special prosecutor “The “grand conspiracy” case was opened several weeks ago after new FBI Director Kash Patel took over, and it could get a significant boost if Trump were to declassify two secret tranches of evidence that identify a potential ignition point to the alleged conspiracy in the summer of 2016, according to several people directly familiar with the inquiry, who spoke to Just the News on a condition of anonymity. The first piece of evidence is a classified annex to a years-old inspector general probe of Hillary Clinton’s improper email server sought by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley. That annex is believed to show that credible information about possible wrongdoing was intentionally ignored by the FBI. The second tranche of evidence was identified by former Russiagate Special Counsel John Durham in his final report. The evidence was dubbed in the report as the “Clinton plan intelligence," and it was also placed in a classified annex kept from the American public and even many members of Congress.“ https://justthenews.com/accountability/political-ethics/monfbi-opens-grand-conspiracy-probe-weaponization-opening-door Evidence may be presented to Grand Jury empaneled in Florida to avoid partisan courts in D.C.

“There is a good-faith debate on whether the existing record supports a claim that Mamdani is a communist. However, there is ample reason to suggest that he is a Marxist. That should be a matter of significant concern, particularly as the possible head of government in the world’s greatest financial center.” Jonathan Turley https://jonathanturley.org/2025/07/02/the-end-goal-of-seizing-the-means-of-production-yup-mamdani-is-a-hardcore-marxist/

I still find it difficult to accept that even New York City would elect this guy.

“The lede of the CNN piece contained details only someone with advanced knowledge of the meeting would know. “Classified documents presented last week,” the four CNN writers said, included “allegations that Russian operatives claim to have compromising personal and financial information about Mr. Trump” and that “there was a continuing exchange of information during the campaign between Trump surrogates and intermediaries for the Russian government.” Material was presented in “a two-page synopsis that was appended to a report on Russian interference in the 2016 election,” and “came, in part, from memos compiled by a former British intelligence operative.” That’s what Brennan means by going to “extraordinary lengths” to protect information. The CNN story in one swoop outed classified intelligence, blew its source (all of Washington knew which “former British intelligence operative” CNN meant, which is why Buzzfeed could publish Steele’s dossier within hours) and betrayed the target, Trump. That’s a rare trifecta of incompetence. A coked-up Tourette’s patient would have done a better job guarding information. Are there really people left who believe these people?“ https://www.racket.news/p/brennan-msnbc-cant-stop-lying-about

I’m not going all eclectic on this, but socialism is just communism lite. But the major thinker missed one small detail in his plan. Human nature. Socialism goes against the grain of human nature so much that it can’t hold up on its own. It either has to convert to capitalism or move on to full communist dictatorship. And I don’t see much difference between the ayatollah and chairman Xi. Palestinians haven’t done anything to support in over a century, other than attack and kill Jews. I don’t fall for mandami’s mealy mouthing about intifada. We all know what it refers to. Globalize it means they intend to continue until everyone is a Muslim, one way or another. Then they can go about killing each other. This country was founded on Judeo-Christian principles so politics and religion are interwoven. I go by the way the women dress. If their women are dressed in garb that hides the fact that they’re women, then they’re one of the bad ones. If you have to treat women as inferiors to be content with your life, then you’re the one with problems.

I hadn’t heard that. I had heard that he supported Palestinians, but don’t understand how he gets Palestinian from Uganda and India. Sunni and Shia tend to hold court, but in my mind, any who follow sharia are no different, possibly worse, than Nazis. There’s no need to deeply analyze how wrong mamdamy is for New York and the United States. He sides with Palestine (Hamas) is a Marxist, and every part of his plan will lead to ruin. Uganda is mostly Christian. The U.S. is mostly Christian and capitalist. He chose Muslim and Marxism. The only thing he got right was dimocrat.

How so?

And he is Muslim, as were the 9/11 attackers; facts are facts. Charlie Kirk, nor I, made any mention of violence, unlike the dimocrat candidate. That’s the difference; one is calling for violence, the other is calling for votes.

She linked to a speech by one person. She’s saying we missed one. You can’t comprehend what she’s saying or who she’s talking about, yet you’re fully outraged. I’m guessing you missed that it was also an attempt at humor. Here’s your “Dismantle the United States, Decolonize, Support Palestine” girl:

So, now you’re accusing me of saying it? It’s not directed towards a group, it’s directed toward the person in the video she posted.

Under a rock?

Horsehair , I believe. But I might have spelled that wrong.

Dollars stashed under the mattress get hit the hardest when that happens.

The woman who xitted that took it down herself, realizing it was the wrong way to express her disgust with a miserable miscreant.
