Yesterday Newsom delivered his State of the State speech. It lasted 17 minutes. Asked to address our state’s problems, the unbearably long-winded Governor had little to say. He certainly had nothing to say about crime. Earlier in the day, I’d held a major press conference to end the Prop. 47 mess Newsom helped create. I […]

Last Monday a deranged man killed his 3 daughters, another man, and then himself in a Sacramento church. We’ve now learned he was in the country illegally.  Not only that, a few days before the murders he was arrested for assaulting a peace officer. ICE asked to be notified of his release, but never was.

Newsom has extended the school mask mandate through March 11. Because why not give kids a couple more weeks of pointless misery.  Meanwhile, as CalMatters reports, all the obsessive new vaccine bills would make California “an outlier among states.” You can see the full list here; as always, our state is leading in the very worst

Newsom has announced the State of Emergency will remain in place for the “endemic” phase. This is blatantly illegal. Late Friday morning, I started getting a lot of calls from reporters. Newsom, I was told, had just convened a secret press briefing. It was “embargoed” until 2:30, meaning they weren’t allowed to report anything until

Two weeks ago, when Newsom extended the school mask mandate, I wrote it would be “widely ignored” throughout California. That’s exactly what has happened. I’m proud my hometown has led the way, with Roseville Joint Union High School District passing a mask choice Resolution. Dozens of districts have now followed. History will record that Newsom’s one-man rule

Our bill to repeal Prop. 47 has incredible momentum. It is now up to 25 co-authors, has a hearing date in two weeks, and is getting wide national coverage. See my latest interview on Fox News here. It’s a pretty radical idea: make crime illegal again in California. The vote by the Assembly Public Safety Committee

America’s most liberal city just recalled from office 3 school board members who refused to open schools. The political earthquake of 2022 has begun. It was not even close. 79% of San Franciscans voted to oust Board Member Alison Collins. Board Member Gabriela Lopez was recalled by 75% of voters and Faauuga Moliga was removed

Newsom just announced he’s extending his school mask mandate even as almost every other state has ended theirs. This will be widely ignored throughout California. This comes a day after LA hosted the world’s biggest sporting event. Mayor Eric Garcetti blithely roamed the stadium, neither covering his face nor holding his breath. What will future

A new Assembly bill would make all California employers force their workers to get vaccinated. The fanatics at our Capitol need to give it a rest. This latest affront joins SB 871, which mandates the vaccine for kindergarten and up, and SB 866, which removes parent consent. I’ll fight these bills every way I can.

California Democrats just voted to continue the State of Emergency even as we host the Super Bowl. Here is the vote tally. To even get a vote, I had to make use of a special parliamentary procedure. At least now they’re on the record – and they will never live this down. The entire press corps came out for our press conference.
