it’s not political and should not be partisan to ask “where did all the money go?” California’s functional bankruptcy threatens the nation and should be a front-and-center state and national discussion. ignore the bs. this is what matters.
Molly O’Shea@MollySOShea

BREAKING: David @friedberg says "California is functionally bankrupt" "People don't realize how screwed California is, & I worry that if California falls, so does the union. "$250 billion to $1 trillion short." "This is because for California to get rescued would be a big cost to red states, & I think it creates in the years ahead a lot of tension." "California's functional bankruptcy is a major risk to the country. & I think we need to figure out what we can change to fix it." How we got here: "California has a public pension system, & that public pension system retirees have paid into it & they get some benefits out, & the amount that they're owed back out is somewhere between $250 billion - $1 trillion dollars more than has been paid in. $250 billion to $1 trillion short. If it was the federal government, it would be like, okay, we'll just print more money. California doesn't have the ability to print money, so California has to pay this out, and you can't restructure retirement benefits. There is a Supreme Court case in California that said that once an employee has been offered retirement benefits, even if they're currently an employee, you can never restructure their retirement benefits. It has to stay forever, and the state cannot declare bankruptcy. There's no way for the state to functionally declare bankruptcy. There's no law to allow it. No state has ever declared bankruptcy, and the retirement benefits sit senior to the bonds in California. So you have to pay out the retirement benefits before you pay out all the bond holders that have loaned California the money that they use to run all their programs and services."

@CynicalPublius since it has no chance of passing it must only be meant to pacify an extremely large group of financially illiterate democrat voters

The idea of taxes on unrealized capital gains for illiquid assets is the stupidest economic policy ever dreamed up. It would be an economy-destroying measure that would basically eliminate the concept of privately owned companies (i.e., companies with equity not traded on the public markets). The death of private companies would result in the death of the major innovation engine that has made the USA the greatest economy in the world. Had such a scheme existed 50 years ago, Apple, Meta, Google, Tesla, Space-X, etc. etc. would never have come into being because they would never have been able to raise VC start-up capital. If this law were to come to pass, unemployment will skyrocket, innovation will plummet, standards of living will be reduced to third world levels, and capital will flee offshore. The nation will tumble into a decades-long Depression and none of the "social justice" ideas Big Chief Lizzie is speaking about will be affordable or even possible. This is the worst economic idea anyone has suggested in any of our lifetimes. But don't worry, Big Chief Lizzie will still get rich off of campaign contributions from the big banks and publicly-trade companies who will be the few beneficiaries of this nation-destroying idea.

Today, I'm introducing my wealth tax — and more than 50 members of Congress are joining me. It’s time for the government to start working for American families, not just the ultra-rich.

@FischerKing64 It's also a reason to aggressively pursue civil damages which I advised Sortor to do the day after he got assaulted and I'll bet he didn't 🤔

Jury nullification - juries refusing to convict people obviously guilty of the crime charged on political/ideological/racial grounds - is a solid reason for conservatives (if there are any left) to leave blue cities. They live in a place that will refuse them justice.

.@nicksortor tells @JackPosobiec about a Portland jury finding one of his Antifa-affiliated attacker's NOT GUILTY on all charges: "It was somebody that was literally attacking me on the street…It's crazy. I don't know if there's a way to save cities like this."

Look at this weasel @claytravis. Robert Mueller dies, Trump mocks him and Clay says nothing. Druski, A COMEDIAN, does skit of no one in particular and Clay falls out like a brat in the supermarket. What a snowflake
Clay Travis@ClayTravis

Erika Kirk’s husband was assassinated in September. It’s March & a black comedian is putting on white face & mocking her in a video. Honest question, if a prominent black leader had been assassinated & a white comedian put on blackface & mocked his widow, what would happen?

It’s actually unbelievable. I’ve seen this in my own life with friends, and even with my younger brothers’ friends. Especially the normal, generally non-political types, who voted for Trump in 2024 out of excitement for his coalition. I can’t think of a single one who hasn’t expressed that he betrayed them on the Epstein files and Iran. A historic coalition squandered.
The American Conservative@amconmag

Gen Z CPAC attendee says Republicans "are going to get destroyed in the midterms": "A lot of people I knew who just voted for Trump because they thought it was cool, are just now being like, 'I can't stand the guy.'"

Being on an @AlaskaAir flight that’s 3/4 full. In a middle seat and asking after everyone has boarded if I could move to a different open seat and being denied because “that’s a premium option” is crazy work. Last time I’ll be flying with them

When Audrey called 911 for help, her brother Steven was met with 9 bullets instead. Today, we honored Steven’s life and stood with his family in their grief and their fight for justice. This is the painful reality too many families face in a mental health crisis. Steven’s life mattered, and we must demand accountability and ensure families receive care, not violence, when they call for help. #StevenJones

If it is official NYPD policy to not enforce the law - then New Yorkers should take matters into our own hands. Pass my legislation to empower civilian enforcement of illegal parking and abolish parking placards.

Emily let me clue you into something that has been a standing order for decades - No Doctors, Nurses, teachers and other city agencies. Since I was the Chief of Dept -I altered this to add , Any friend of @sidrosenberg19 was a friend of ours - free pass for Sid’s friends. I did this because I could. That’s just the way it is my precious snowflake.
