Progress on the People's Republic of California

These leftists govern the California schools and their curriculum; I'd say their goal is to create millions of Jerry Brown-Kamala Harris clones

The Berniefication of the Democrat Party Is Almost Complete

"Feinstein loses Cali Democrats, CAP pushes Medicare for All, and the DCCC attacks establishment Democrats

 . . . "Figures once considered fringe even among the left are now hailed as the voice of the party; these figures include self-proclaimed socialist Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and radical progressive Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA).  Sanders and more recently Warren have been strong proponents of single-payer and “free” college.  Thanks in large part to Bernie, much of the left, the Democrat base, thinks of itself as “Democratic Socialist.' ” . . .

Feinstein reminded of Lieberman  " . . . In reality, this is about replacing moderates with insane lefties who will add little to the national debate except to be more irrationally critical of President Trump.

It's hard to see how any of this will be good for California.

"In the meantime, we will likely see more talk of secession or the breakup of the state.  We will continue to hear of prohibitive housing costs and more people packing up and going elsewhere looking for sanity."  

Thomas Lifson: Calif Dems dump Feinstein from party endorsement for re-election to Senate

The Democrats now are divided with a far left base able to deny endorsements and back fringe candidates.  The jungle primary system in California only aggravates the problems.  Meanwhile, the GOP base enthusiastically backs President Trump, himself an insurgent.  The prospect of future fractures for the moment lies more on the left than the right of American politics.

One can hope. 

Rick Moran: Oakland mayor tips off illegals to ICE sweep  . . . "I think we should open the borders and allow anyone who wants to come to the United States to be welcomed with open arms - as long as they settle in Oakland. We'll see how long Schaff continues to believe there is no difference between legal and illegal immigration."

‘National disgrace’: Community fights back as California overrun by homelessness, human waste, needles

. . . "Los Angeles’ homeless problem has now spread past Skid Row to much of downtown. The amount of feces littering the streets in San Diego, Los Angeles and San Francisco has led to a hepatitis outbreak that spread throughout the state’s homeless communities, infecting 694 people. It skipped Orange County."Spitzer singled out for criticism Los Angeles and San Francisco. San Francisco’s feces problem is so bad that a website now exists to warn residents of which streets to avoid. Los Angeles raised taxes last year in order to build housing for the homeless and has started a roving toilet program." . . .

How the Dems' Crazy Wing Is Sabotaging the Party's Chances in November

. . . "The five-term former mayor of San Francisco used to be thought of as a "liberal's liberal." But today, the crazies prefer their candidates to the left of Vladimir Lenin. Her opponent, Kevin de León, president of the California Senate, sounds more like the kind of candidate the wild eyed left can get behind. He has stated that "half of my family" is residing in the United States illegally. He has proposed confiscatory gun control legislation, and was the author of the notorious "affirmative consent" law that denies male college students an affirmative defense (women are always to be believed)." . . .
