Recall

An argument for Newsom's recall based upon his mismanagement of the drug crisis and homelessness. The proof is in the pudding. In an era of unprecedented riches in California, we have simultaneously mismanaged our political affairs to such a degree, our streets in LA and SF have turned into 3rd world blights. 

The LA Times today published 4-5 panicked pleas to vote for Newsom over the "nihilism" of Larry Elder. 

Please. 

The Democrat playbook is the same every single time: panic over the evil Republican (fill in the blank name). They are fascists, nihilists, etc, etc. 

Meanwhile, hold no Democrat responsible for anything. The LA Times articles say Newsom got unlucky with COVID and inherited problems of homelessness, drug abuse, and EDD. And he's brave for granting gay marriage licenses before the rest of the country in the gayest fricking city in the entire world -- my home - San Francisco. Gimme a break!

Meanwhile, we haven't had a real Republican in any sort of power in California for 30 freaking years. So let's ask this question: how are we supposed to register dissatisfaction with our government in California?

Seriously? Who can we call to cut this ridiculous lowering of standards in education? To cut out the anti-racist nonsense from our jobs and our politics? To clean up the streets, to help the drug addicted, the homeless, to do something about the astronomical housing costs, or the crazy amount of taxes, or the wildfires, or the gas prices, or the global fucking warming, or the EDD scandals, or rolling blackouts? Seriously, LA Times....what should Californians do? Just suck it up and keep electing the same cabal of incestuous, incompetent Democrats like Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsom, and Eric Garcetti? The Democrats have had 30 years to tackle these issues and as far as I can tell, they've all gotten worse under their watch. Is this because of George W Bush, or Donald Trump, or all the racists out in the heartland? All the crazy Republicans blocking the Democrats from brilliant policies to solve these problems? Nope.

It's a bunch of lies for corrupt incompetents to hold onto power.
