@spencerpratt It baffles me how Karen Bass is even a viable candidate.
Please make it make sense.

California gave ONE nonprofit $1 BILLION.
To put solar panels on poor people's roofs.
You know how much solar they actually installed?
$72 million.
That's it.
So where the FUCK is the other $928 MILLION?
I'll tell you exactly where.
The same nonprofit that WROTE the law that gave them the money ALSO got the contract to run "community outreach."
Same guy runs the nonprofit AND the program. Chris Walker. Two paychecks. Look it up.
And their SISTER organization — same building, same staff, same donors — is a 501(c)(4) that endorses Democrat candidates and runs door-knocking operations in the EXACT SAME NEIGHBORHOODS.
Connect the dots, idiot.
You pay $7.50 a gallon for gas.
Cap-and-trade takes a cut at the pump.
That money flows to "climate justice nonprofits."
Those nonprofits funnel it into Democrat get-out-the-vote machines.
You. Are. Funding. The. People. Who. Are. Robbing. You.
Every time you fill up your fucking tank, you're paying for a Democrat campaign volunteer to knock on a stranger's door and tell them how amazing Gavin Newsom is.
$928 MILLION.
GONE.
And not one journalist in this state asked a single question until @jennyraeca and CAL DOGE pulled the receipts.
You think this is the only one?
There's a hundred more like it.
This is how California works now.
This is how a "blue state" stays blue when only 48% of the voters are Democrats.
Wake the fuck up.

CORRUPTION: California's free diaper program is $12.5 million routed through a Democrat NGO co-led by megadonors that pays 6 Democrat donors six-figure salaries. Newsom is paying Democrat donors to hand out diapers. The babies are the props. The donors are the beneficiaries. The taxpayers are the victims.

The woman who runs Baby2Baby - the NGO that will be funded by state money to deliver on this promise - sits on the board of Gavin Newsom’s wife’s company.
This is just graft hidden in plain sight.

Gov. Gavin Newsom has announced California will be the first state in the nation to provide free diapers to newborns. Families will receive 400 diapers when discharged from the hospital.

The so-called "Wealth Tax" is one of the worst proposals in California history. The state has increased its annual budget by $150 billion in just a few years, with little measurable improvement in our public services or fiscal standing. There is little reason to believe a sudden one-time windfall of $100 billion will make a fundamental difference.
Yet the promised windfall isn't actually coming. To the contrary, independent assessments find the Wealth Tax would lead to a revenue loss because of people leaving the state and no longer paying income taxes. Many billionaires have already done this simply on the chance that the measure will pass. Worse, there is enough ambiguity in the language to create a real risk that the legislature would apply the measure to more people every year. That's why the exodus started with billionaires but is already cascading down the net-worth distribution.
The impact on jobs, key sectors of our economy, and California's standing as the innovation capital of the world is impossible to overstate. What's more, as a seizure of assets applied even to former residents, the proposal is plainly inconsistent with the U.S. Constitution. I have introduced legislation in Congress to preempt that unconstitutional provision.

On page twenty-six of “The Billionaire Tax” proposal in California, it explains how the state legislature can convert from a Billionaire Tax to an Everyone Tax without voter approval. They can also adjust the tax to be a yearly tax, not just one time…again, without your approval. Intelligence test for you: if this was meant to just target Billionaires, why did they write this in?

@iluminatibot In California, local/state government can't manage money, yet they want more to cover their mistakes.

Hollywood star @PatriciaHeaton : “I wasn’t happy when Clinton, Obama or Biden won, but I didn’t call them fascist… I went on with my life with gratitude. Friends on the left, please try this. Your life & our country will be better.” Take notes from Patricia Heaton.

They named it the “Billionaire Tax” so you wouldn’t read it.
I read it.
Page 26 lets Sacramento convert it to a tax on EVERYONE without your vote.
Same people. Same trick. They did it with AB 130.
Newsom said he’d never sign a mileage tax.
Page 137. Already signed.
Now page 26.
Your house. Your 401k. Your savings.
No vote required.
Watch before they bury it 👇
