10 Biggest Adjustments Fleeing Californians Have To Make In Their New States |

  Babylon Bee  Quoting:

Quote: Hundreds of thousands of people are fleeing California for states like Texas and Florida, but it's not always easy to adjust to life in an American state.

Let's look at the 10 biggest adjustments fleeing Californians have to make in their new states:

Strange wet stuff falls from the sky once in a while. Try not to drive your car into a pole when this happens. Take a deep breath. You will get through it.

People don't say "The" in front of highway names. If you're driving on I-10 in Texas, you'll feel the urge to say "The 10," but don't do it. It's wrong.

You can't wear flip-flops to church. Not even your "nice" Vans flip-flops. Put on shoes like an adult.

There's no need to call the police if you see someone with a gun strapped to their hip. It's OK. The guns can't jump out and hurt you, no matter what Newsom told you back in California.

"Bless your heart" doesn't mean "bless your heart." Well, it might mean "bless your heart," but it's a safer bet that it means "that person's weird," or "you're an idiot," or "I don't like you." Or, it's a simple ending to a statement you've made about someone that you don't want to feel bad about.

No one cares about your preferred pronouns. Go ahead and tell an old farmer in Oklahoma that you go by "they" pronouns. The look on his face will be worth it.

Man-buns are unacceptable in a professional setting. Or any setting.

You have to go into buildings without any kind of official warning that something inside there might cause cancer. You will just have to take the chance. Be strong.  (My personal favorite.TD

The weather cycles from hot to cold and back again on an annual basis. Do not be alarmed. These are called "seasons."

You might have to make your own choices and take responsibility for your actions without the government taking care of you. This is the most difficult adjustment for Californians to make when they move to America, but with time, prayer (also acceptable in red states), and willpower, you can do it!

Those are just a few of the many adjustments ex-Californians will have to make. If you've thought of any others, please leave them in the comments below to help these poor communists to enjoy capitalism away from their homeland.  End quote.

Joe’s and the Dems’ (almost) perfect out on Hunter

 American Thinker  "When life gives you Hunter, make Hunter aid you. 

"Some may say that Hunter was not born that way, but rather created by the same poor family environment that created a hyper-sexualized, sex- and drug- addicted daughter. Created or born --  whatever. (I am willing to bet that a deep dive into Biden’s dead son, Beau, would reveal interesting behaviors, too.) ". . .

. . .Hunter will have to do time.  

"Remember that part where no one can save him? Well, actually, that is not quite possible. Joe can save him after Hunter does a teeny, tiny amount of time.  

"Step Three is Joe pardons Hunter. A president can pardon someone who committed a federal crime and is being punished. Incarceration is punishment. Joe tells the nation that as a kind, loving (though sick In the head) father he has chosen to help his son at the expense of his 2024 presidential run. What else could a father do? 

"This scenario allows: 

• Joe to leave office without the disgrace of losing the election, crapping his pants on the campaign trail, and holding his head up high for choosing family over career 
• The Dems to jettison him and apply their resources to the election(s) and not defending and covering for Joe 
• The Dems to sanctimoniously disagree with his pardon but being understanding of it, i.e., distance themselves without dissing Joe 
• The critical points are to have this political theater elevate Joe, harshly punish Hunter, have Joe pardon him and free the Dems of the Biden millstone. 

"It is winners all around unless you wanted true justice done re: Hunter. In which case you are a racist."

New Billboard in Times Square Trolls ‘Elite Pete’ Buttigieg — ‘Let Them Drive Electric Cars!’

New Billboard in Times Square Trolls 'Elite Pete' Buttigieg — 'Let Them Drive Electric Cars!' (thegatewaypundit.com)

"A new billboard is popping up in Times Square to troll Biden’s Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg for believing that people who are struggling at the gas pump should buy expensive electric vehicles instead.

The billboard was purchased by the Job Creator’s Network, [a] small business advocacy organization launched by Bernie Marcus, the co-founder and former CEO of Home Depot.

The billboard reads, “PAIN AT THE PUMP? ELITE PETE SAYS, ‘LET THEM DRIVE ELECTRIC CARS'”

"It features Buttigieg’s image with a crown and scepter.

"During a hearing on Tuesday, Buttigieg, once again, said that people who can’t afford Biden’s sky-high gas prices should just buy an electric vehicle.

“ 'he more pain we are all experiencing from the high price of gas, the more benefit there is for those who can access electric vehicles,” Buttigieg said.

"This isn’t the first time he has made this type of comment.

"During an appearance on CNBC’s Squawk Box to discuss gas prices earlier this month, Buttigieg said, “I’m still astonished that some folks seem to really struggle to let go” of their gas-powered vehicles in favor of electric vehicles. ". . .

Mark your calendar for Liz Cheney's downfall

 American Thinker

Lurking in the background to all of this is a widespread weariness of endless political theater.  Meanwhile, we are suffering from a profound lack of competent governance. 

 

. . ." Burdensome taxes and inflating prices are taking a serious toll on our standard of living.  Swarms of vagrants are despoiling our towns and cities.  Rampant lawlessness is further damaging the general quality of life.  I could go on and on, but you already know the drill.

"Meanwhile, back to ol' Liz.  Why would a Wyoming people's representative go so far out of her way to enrage her constituents?  According to Byron York, not only is Liz not of Wyoming, but she's not even from Wyoming.  Born in Wisconsin, she has spent most of her life on the Virginia side of the Metro D.C. swamp.  In spite of her surname's pedigree, she has no background in ranching, mining, or living by your wits.  In some ways, she's a textbook example of the pervasive defect in American politics: reliance on the superficial rather than the substantive.

"Public-sector malfeasance has become the new normal.  As this is being written, the major Pacific port of Oakland has been shut down for the last week because the villains in Sacramento have outlawed independent owner-operator truckers from picking up and delivering freight containers  — unless they incorporate or surrender to the Teamsters union and become employees.  There can be little doubt that generous campaign donations were involved.". . .

Woke Baseball’s All-Star Game Draws Worst TV Audience Ever

Right Wire Report

 Newsbusters   "Major League Baseball showcased its very best talents in Tuesday’s All-Star Game, and the viewing public said nah, not interested. Television ratings for a fast declining woke league were at rock bottom in the history of all-star game viewing. 

"Broadcast by Fox Sports, the 2022 all-star game drew just 7.5 million viewers with a lowly 4.2 rating, and Sports Business Journal documented this being the poorest television showing ever for the Midsummer Classic. That’s a 10-percent ratings drop compared to last year’s controversy-dogged game. 

"Not only is MLB losing popularity for its wokeness, but last year it badly damaged the integrity of the all-star game by removing it from Atlanta for political reasons. The Georgia legislature had enacted new laws designed to protect election integrity. Democrats cried “voter suppression,” MLB bought into the lie and moved the 2021 all-star game to Colorado. It was a woke, bone-headed move that sent baseball’s favorability into a free fall. 

"Warner Todd Huston’s Breitbart story describes the debacle this way: ". . .

Few Watch Political Organization Baseball Game Called “All Star Game” (capoliticalreview.com) . . ."As for this year’s MLB All-Star Game, it kicked off in a city beset by troubles as L.A. has suffered a soaring crime rate, a wave of homelessness, economic despair, and drought.

"The city’s plight- especially where it concerns crime- was highlighted last week with the shocking murder of NASCAR driver Bobby East, who was attacked and killed by a criminal already on parole.

"Meanwhile, voters are so fed up with the area’s soft-on-crime, George Soros-funded DA, George Gascón, that they are in the midst of a recall effort as residents sick and tired of his refusal to prosecute criminals try to kick him out of office.". . .
