NOTES on the Aftermath of the California RECALL.

The failed recall election left California 
with lingering problems .


 

(1)>>CALIFORNIA is a sinking ship with titanic problems
. Homelessness , high taxes , crime rampant , mismanagement of state funds . YOU'D think the state RECALL would have changed anything ? HARDLY .  (2)>>
Newsom's win was all about money  . Newsom flooded the state with cash , pumping every institution with billions of dollars . It’s a strategy other governors have deployed to sell their spending priorities to voters,specter of the looming recall — combined with the unusual hardships of the last year and the enormous windfall of money — have added some drama to what’s normally a routine step in the annual budget-making process at the Capitol. He is exactly trying to sway voters to his side . Let explain , (3)>>FIRST WE KNEW that the election was heading for a Newsom win. Come ON NOW you'd think that the recall was not rigged ? I am going tell you how it was rigged , you need NOT to throw out mail in ballots , or use voting machines with evasive software . HERE IS THE TRICK . There is a vast majority of ignorant people in California , they work for the state public sector out of 30 million people , they  live in the state they are  over 3 million public union members . I was at one time a public school employee before I took a early retirement , I  was one of them for 30 years . I saw how unions operate , how they rouse their members , how they do this is easy : INJECT FEAR INTO YOUR MEMBERS . So if your union leaders tell you " you don't vote for Newsom it's your job". this alone sends a union member into a panic   . Unions do this all the time to their members.   (4)>>California state unions have more control over the state than the regular people do .They include California’s largest teachers union and its most vocal charter school advocates; nurses and the hospitals they sometimes clash with; Realtors, developers, building trades unions and corporate landlords who have differing views on the housing crisis; defense contractors at Lockheed Martin; abortion rights advocates; new car dealers; and the financier-turned-liberal-megadonor George Soros. All have found common cause in keeping Newsom in his job. NOW THE MONEY TRAIL is even stranger than the fact where it came from , but to who's pocket it lined . REMEMBER the Newsom camp received over 70 million dollars in campaign donations . This money never goes back to who donated it. LIKE I suspect in dirty politics the money probably was sent to Newsom's estate and bank .
Exposing  recall Racism in California 
BESIDES this , the whole recall turned into a racist attack on Larry Elders a black man  running as a Republican was labeled " a Trump clone " by US President Joe Biden . Now just look at this disgusting headline from the La Times. “ Larry Elder is the black face of white supremacy. You've been warned”. ITS SHEER UTTER STUPIDITY on the Democratic left . This whole thing could hurt any one of color running for office in this state  . People don't think California is a racist state , people will always say Alabama , or Texas .  (5)>>The worst racist offender is California really, the state has only one black senator. But besides the racist smears didn’t stop there, Governor Gavin Newsom himself blasted Elder as he spoke in Long Beach alongside President Joe Biden. During his speech, Newsom explained that voting for Larry Elder is a vote against “diversity” and “racial justice.” It obvious the "white elites " are scared of a black man with different views. Democrats are having a meltdown because Elder, a Black man, dares to say things like, "I submit to you that systemic racism is not the problem and critical race theory and reparations are not the answer." Elder would have unraveled the status quo that has been plaguing California for decades which is REAL RACISM .[ see notes comments below to explain this controversial subject ]

SO WHAT IS NEXT FOR CALIFORNIA ?
NOW that Newsom won .  (6)>>THE BIG QUESTION Can California survive another year in 2022 AD ? The year ahead is not so a sweet victory for Newsom . If 36 % of "yes" recall looks like a small number , it's really pretty large , as I explained above , the public sector Unions played a large part why Newsom survived . Larry Elder got 47 % of the vote , that too is significant . It shows that the Blue state of California has a large base of Republican voters , its MUCH LARGER than we are told to believe , I can say that the demographic maps that show red and blue on CNN are crap . They don't tell the whole story for county per county . BUT AGAIN the Unions saved Newsom's ass . NOW that is said , California has huge problems that where expressed in the recall movement that has to be addressed . California can't go on with it's high costs of living , high taxation . Homelessness is a issue not just for Democrats or Republicans in the state . California is own reputation world wide is in the dumps , its images of people living in the streets for example is now used by the Chinese government as a example of America's failed capitalist system . California , many blue states have similar problems . The next few months are going to be a challenge , there is a probability of further restrictions because of covid virus mutations . The drought is going to get worse , will it lead to more  Draconian rationing of water . FOR THOSE WHO SUPPORTED THE RECALL they should start by clearing out the Democrat legislature , if many Democrat holdings in the Senate begin there . Democrats crushed the state GOP, cementing a supermajority in the legislature and winning four congressional seats. The biggest question after the recall election is: How will Newsom serve the rest of his term? He may interpret his resounding defeat of the effort to oust him as approval of his liberal policies, or he may be humbled by the fact that Democrats had to spend tens of millions of dollars to ensure he retained his seat.  Asked about a 2022 run, Elder told a radio station : “I have now become a political force here in California in general and particularly within the Republican Party. And I’m not going to leave the stage.” Elder it seemed to backed off for a run in 2022 . BUT FOR NOW .

NOTES AND COMMENTS:
(1)>>CALIFORNIA is a sinking ship with titanic problems THIS IS WHY I LOVED THE RECALL ELECTION !!! EXPOSE THE HORRIBLE CONDITIONS IN THE STATE .We should be asking, where is the outrage? A picture that should have incited a mass response provoked hardly a whimper. It garnered minimal local coverage and nothing at the state, much less national level.   Having now earned the lowest bond rating of any of the 50 states, the rates it pays to borrow keep getting higher. Yet borrowing seems to be all California can do to get through from day to day. That is what is known as The Road to Bankruptcy. Democratic state government is failing to deliver basic services to Californians like adequate water, reliable power and basic education for children. No meaningful water storage has been added to our water supply in 50 years. Reliable electricity from natural gas generation and nuclear power has been significantly replaced with unreliable solar and wind power resulting in blackouts and the highest cost electricity in the country.The most obvious and visible, indeed inescapable manifestation of the state’s failure remains the homeless crisis. The staggering human costs are on display in every neighborhood, on virtually every corner, on nearly every block.Make no mistake: Officials from Governor Gavin Newsom to the lowest level bureaucrat are encouraging hundreds of thousands of people to come to California and destroy themselves.(2)>>Newsom's win was all about money  .  Unions contributed against the recall. Union money is not enough to fill the coffers of the sly governor .Gov. Newsom is the direct financial beneficiary of these corporate donations via his wife’s salary.AT&T or PG&E are writing huge checks because shareholders are clamoring to Newsom's pockets.  Mrs. Newsom’s income is part of what Gov. Newsom and his family live on. Those corporations effectively are helping Gov. Newsom pay his living expenses while they lobby his administration for favorable treatment. Gov. Gavin Newsom and his wife, First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom. Mrs. Newsom operates a non-profit foundation called The Representation Project.The Representation Project skyrocketed from a paltry $600,000 in 2011, the year Gavin Newsom became lieutenant governor, to $2 million in 2019, his first year as governor.(3)>>FIRST WE KNEW that the election was heading for a Newsom win. WE SUSPECTED why Biden , Kamala , Pelosi all flew over to California was to protect their poster boy . I wrote in a past blog post that as a alternate reality that Gov. Newsom is being groomed for a future run for President of the US as a Democrat  ! If Biden, who will be 82 years old in 2024, does not run for re-election (because he and those around him believe he's not up to it, either physically or mentally), who will be their nominee? Biden's age has already led some Democrats to begin casting about quietly for a 2024 alternative. Prior to Tuesday's California recall results, the hushed private conversations about possible 2024 candidates focused on 2020 also-rans. The only thing that could thwart his ambition would be Kamala Harris being elected president in by sheer circumstance like Biden dying in office . Not only would that stop another serious Democrat from running until 2028 — at which time there will be a ton of new faces on the scene — it is extremely unlikely that the public would vote for back-to-back presidents from the state. But STILL you can't trust Madam Pelosi either .(4)>>California state unions have more control over the state than the regular people do .California Labor Unions control everything in the state , their lobby is strong enough to influence the sate budget , with that many of the state's problems go undressed . Today, public sector unions are the most powerful political force in our State. They control a majority of our State Legislature and might control a supermajority in November if a few swing districts fall their way.  No politician, Democrat, Republican or Independent, acts without considering how it will affect the union agenda.   (5)>>The worst racist offender is California really, the state has only one black senator. California’s state Senate currently has 39 senators, and only one of them is African American. The question of racism in California is serious. It's often unchecked because California is a blue state . Besides racism , there is also sexism, a lack of a woman governor  . AS a example last year Gov. Newsom picked a Latino over a Black to fill a seat in the US senate . The choice seems to reflect appeasement to a growing majority of Latino's in the state for votes . It's like the vote counts to keep in the white elite in power in the state . I would question why would anyone in California who is black would vote to keep Newsom in is beyond logic or scruples with out realizing how racism is playing out in California .(6)>>THE BIG QUESTION Can California survive another year in 2022 AD ?  If by 2022 California has survive the big predicted overdue Earthquake , the yearly fires . I think the California government is not longer capable to serve the interest of its people like the rest of the American government . BY 2022 you see Gov. Newsom trying for a second term . Because of Joe Biden’s age, there has been speculation that he may not actually survive the next 4 years. He will be 82 at the next election. NEXT would be the BIG SHAKE UP that sends Newsom to Washington D.C after Nancy Pelosi has to fill in the shoes of Biden , by calling her Nephew . There could be a serious vacancy in California . It starts NEXT year leading to 2023 .
