Alert: Newsom Admits Deep State Has Emergency Options to Change Election If It Looks Like GOP Will Win:
California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom said last week that he has a backup plan if Democrats get locked out of November’s gubernatorial election.
California’s jungle primary system is somewhat unique in that the top two vote-getters advance to the general election despite party affiliation.

- Federal law always trumps state and local law.
And while threats are up over 8,000%, masks is a non-starter, so good luck enforcing that...
- But remember, when Biden opened the border, he also overturned the Trump census rule, which illegal aliens would be counted in the next census.
- So they think, you know, send millions to sanctuary cities, the next census is done, it’s going to result in more seats in the House for the Democrats.
- They sold this country’s national security out for future political benefit...

Scams galore!-----The Grand Tradition of Suing the City for School Tuition
The city spends over a billion a year on special-education lawsuits brought, mostly, by white parents. - Anya Kamenetz
- Last winter, as her anxiety reached a new zenith, 7-year-old Hayley would often stop on Eighth Avenue in Park Slope and lie down on the sidewalk, staging a full-body protest against attending second grade at her zoned public school. “I’m not going,” she would wail, red-faced and sweating. “I hate it. I hate you! You can’t make me!”...
If the city settles, or the family wins in a hearing, the DoE will be liable for the cost of services, transportation, evaluations, and/or tuition at a specialized private school.
- In Hayley’s case, the payment will include an annual tuition of nearly $90,000.
- The city may also be required to pay the parents’ legal fees — typically in the four- or five-figure range — incurred to file the suit each year...

What I can tell you is that we have multiple investigations going on in Arizona, in Georgia, in Fulton County, Georgia. And that’s exactly what we’re looking at...
VP Vance just exposed a SINGLE "immigrant" in Maine who stole $15 MILLION from Medicaid over five years, claiming to provide interpreter services while providing ZERO.
Why the HELL are we paying for "interpreter services" for illegals anyway??! - Nick Sortor@nicksortor
