Well, didn’t see that coming … The $15 minimum wage hike in California has sent financially troubled UC Berkeley into decision making mode, and “the people who clean buildings, who work in food services or health clinics,” says Todd Stenhouse, will be the ones without a job. Stenhouse, a spokesman for the American Federation of StateChancellor, also said “There’s a very clear need for those front-line services. But the question

CA Gov Jerry Brown’s war on cars and suburbs [Darleen Click]
Not only Moonbeam, mind you, but most of the socialist Democrats in the California state legislature who use the fanatical Green religion as an excuse to strip people of their means of independent transportation and single family homes. Senate Bill 350, now pending in the Assembly, sets 2020 goals of a 50 percent reduction in petroleum use, having 50 percent of electric power coming from renewable sources, and increasing energy

From the UNEXPECTEDLY!!! Files: In the Wake of Proposition 47, California Sees a Crime Wave [Darleen Click]
No f**king sh*t, Sherlock … “The Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act” isn’t living up to its promise. Also known as Proposition 47, the California ballot initiative, which was approved in November 2014 with 60 percent of the vote, downgraded drug possession and many property crimes from a felony to a misdemeanor. Proponents argued that lesser punishment for low-level offenders would enhance public safety. San Francisco District Attorney George Gascon was

Anti-Liberty Democrats FUC-ing California [Darleen Click]
For a brief few months at the end of last year, I thoroughly enjoyed paying around $2.50 per gallon of gas. Currently, local prices in the Inland Empire of So Cal are hovering around $3.80. In Los Angeles, it is over $4. We have the highest priced gas in the nation by more than $1/gal. And it isn’t just about our “summer blend” or that our Watermelon Greens have made

California Democrats consider most people children [Darleen Click]
The El-Lay division of authoritarian Leftists (but I repeat myself) do a “water-wise” campaign with text and graphics geared towards third graders: I wonder how much LA Mayor Eric Garcetti (known as Mayor Yoga Pants by many) spent on these sophisticated graphics … #facepalm

California taxpayers ordered to pay for murderer’s sex change [Darleen Click]
Is there any activity The State cannot force upon people? SACRAMENTO, Calif. – A federal judge on Thursday ordered California’s corrections department to provide a transgender inmate with sex change surgery, the first time such an operation has been ordered in the state. U.S. District Court Judge Jon Tigar in San Francisco ruled that denying sex reassignment surgery to 51-year-old Michelle-Lael Norsworthy violates her (sic) constitutional rights. Her (sic) birth

Leftism is the most dynamic, and jealous, religion of the 20th & 21st Century [Darleen Click]
In California, it means stripping university students of any competing religious club – especially Christian. When Cal Poly Sal Luis Obispo hosts its annual Open House this April, during which campus clubs typically greet and recruit prospective visiting students, one longtime mainstay at the university will be conspicuously absent: Cru. The Christian club will not be allowed to set up a table and pass out fliers, or meet and greet

California voters poised for a huge case of Karma [Darleen Click]
Just got home, glass of wine, shoes off and still pissed enough I could scream. Today was the first day of Prop 47 hell at work. As I ranted last night: AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAARRRRREEEEEEEGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!! There is no curse I imagine vile enough to thrust on my fellow Californians who are voting a big huge “Please come commit crime in our state! We don’t mind! Here’s a fruit basket” Prop 47 looks to

International Brotherhood Workers Union: If we can’t have those jobs, we’ll make sure no one gets those jobs [Darleen Click]
Union thuggery against any opposition — destroying property and smashing heads — is so well known as to become a stereotype. So it comes no surprise that an organization interested only in power and never about the welfare of individual workers, would also use a front-group to engage in lawfare and drive a business out of California. The California city of Palmdale was ready to roll out the red carpet

California forces Churches to pay for abortions, immediately [Darleen Click]
So where are the staunchiest peoples who claimed this could never happen, and promised their support in fighting it if it did? California’s Department of Managed Health Care has ordered all insurance plans in the state to immediately begin covering elective abortion. Not Plan B. Not contraceptives. Elective surgical dismemberment abortion. At the insistence of the American Civil Liberties Union, the DMHC concluded that a 40-year-old state law requiring health
