California Introduces Stop Nick Shirley Act

Moonbattery

Conservative Tribune

"Nick Shirley is a genuine journalist, in stark contrast to the incurious propagandists comprising the liberal establishment media. To learn what would happen to genuine journalists were Democrats to consolidate power, look to places where leftism has prevailed, like China, Cuba — or California.

"California State Assemblymember Carl DeMaio sounds the alarm:

DeMaio is slamming state Democrats for voting to advance a controversial new law (AB 2624) to silence citizen journalists and shield taxpayer-funded organizations from public scrutiny.

"What DeMaio calls the “Stop Nick Shirley Act,” Democrats bleat is all about protecting the put-upon colonists they have imported from the Third World to displace American voters:

AB 2624 claims to be about protecting immigrant organizations from “threats of violence,” when in fact the legislation would apply to any left-wing group that claims to provide any services to legal or illegal immigrants. For example, under AB 2624 entities like the Somali “Learing” Daycare centers would all be covered if they operated inside California.

"These phony daycare centers set up to facilitate the massive fraud permitted by Democrats like Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison were famously exposed by Shirley.

AB 2624 would allow activists and taxpayer-funded organizations to demand the removal of video evidence — even if it captures misconduct in plain view — and threatens journalists with massive financial penalties. . ..  More...

Reasons to forgive [tone deaf] Trump his trespasses

 Andrea Widburg - American Thinker  

"Democrats have told us what they’re going to do: Pack the court, add two new states, open the borders completely, bow down to the Muslim world, escalate the lawfare they used to destroy their political opponents, double down on “transing our children,” make abortion unlimited, destroy Israel, etc."

"A friend called me today to say she was unhappy about the picture Trump posted and then deleted, in which he was shown ministering to a sick person. Although the image lacks the flowing hair and beard attributed to Christ in European and American religious iconography, it definitely has a Christ-like vibe. It was a tone-deaf thing for Trump to have done.

"Nevertheless, I hope that people, while miffed in the short term, don’t sit out the 2026 and 2028 elections to “punish Trump.” If they’re patriotic Americans, the punishment that they’ll be meting out will be to this country, not to Trump.

"In legal terms, Trump is sui generis, that is, utterly unique. He is a man of extraordinary abilities, and his core values are excellent. He’s also larger than life, blustering, self-aggrandizing, vindictive, and a counterpuncher who doesn’t always stop to think about whether it’s wiser at any given moment to pull his punches. I’m not blind to Trump’s failings, but when I look at his virtues, I still think he’s the best thing to happen to America since George Washington. 

"Big Picture things:

"Trump is a politician who keeps his promises. That’s because he’s not really a politician; he’s a businessman. And in business, especially the rough and tumble world of commercial real estate, your word had better be your bond." . . .

To see the atrocities committed on peaceful Israeli villages that October 7th: families murdered, babies cooked alive in Israeli homes, men, women and children taken away to terror in Hamas tunnels, being starved and raped, toddlers killed by bare hands of men from Gaza while "gaslit" products of Western educator's cheer those same executioners.

Gaslight  “Gaslighting” means “to psychologically manipulate someone over a period of time.” It can cause a person to second-guess their thoughts, memories, and even perception of reality. Say a friend promises to talk about an argument later, but when the time comes, they deny that the conversation or argument ever happened. This is an example of gaslighting; it can make you question your own memory of the event, which can be deeply upsetting if it happens repeatedly.

"In modern slang, people incorrectly apply this term to everyday disagreements, as in, “He said he didn’t like the movie. He’s gaslighting me!” True gaslighting distorts reality; it isn’t about differing opinions. The misuse of this term — and other therapy speak — can make it hard to determine whether the speaker is referring to the clinical or casual definition." . .

In a Democrat college town, voters finally get a taste of their own medicine

 Andrea Widburg - American Thinker   

"As for me, all I could think of is H. L. Mencken’s sardonic take on democracy: “Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.'”  . . .

"One of the things that’s so often said about affluent, white Democrat voters is that they’re insulated from the effects of their own policies. When they import illegal aliens, their enclaves don’t see rising rents and crimes, along with lost jobs. (Indeed, as Martha’s Vineyard shows, they make sure it doesn’t happen in their communities.) Likewise, sheltered in their cars and upscale homes, they don’t feel the effect of recidivist crime waves on subways and in home robberies.

"But sometimes, the nasty stuff they sent downhill to “the little people” rolls right back uphill and bites them in the derriere. In South Hadley, Massachusetts, it wasn’t a horrible crime, but it was something just as meaningful: A straight hit to the pocketbook.

"To appreciate what’s going on in South Hadley, located in western Massachusetts. You need to know a few things:

• First, it’s a college town, home to Mount Holyoke College (annual cost of a year’s attendance, including food and housing: $88,427).


• Second, it bills itself as a “gender diverse women’s college,” which means that this women’s college accepts mentally ill men who claim to be women (although I wonder whether it rejects mentally ill women who claim to be men).


• Third, its official faculty policy is to fight Trump.


• Fourth, a cohort of its students strongly supported waging a violent war against Israel.


• Fifth, Mount Holyoke is the town’s biggest employer.

"From these facts, you can probably readily discern a few other pertinent facts about South Hadley:" . . . More...

Oddly not unlike this Atlas rocket launch tower at Vandenberg Space Force Base on the Central California coast:

From the UK Daily Mail, Dec 2025: New photos show inside Obama's 'eyesore' presidential library   "The first facility at the Obama Presidential Center opened its doors, giving the public its first look at the controversial library. 

Home Court is a 60,000 square-foot structure that features the same sharp, gray, modern architecture that gave the rest of the Obama library complex viral fame. 

The presidential center invited honored guests to get a glimpse of the newly completed building designed by Black-owned architecture firm Moody Nolan. 

It features an NBA-regulation basketball court, seating, and meeting spaces.

The main court is complete with a signatory 'O' in the center and Obama's campaign slogans 'Hope' and 'Yes we can' are painted on the court.

Even the metal outside is adorned with a basketball net pattern to keep in line with the theme, according to the Chicago Sun-Times. 

According to the website, the 60,000 square-foot-building serves as 'a place for health and wellness activities, events, and a wide range of opportunities for community engagement.'

Outside the building are play areas, a walking trail, and even a hill designated for sledding." . . .
