It seems that a larger segment of the population of California is in America illegally than we first thought. Here are some powerful indications. https://twitter.com/wallstreetapes/status/1936921116569911343?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ 100% illegal labor https://twitter.com/wallstreetapes/status/1937273841094689227?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ 100% illegal labor https://twitter.com/cartel_cal/status/1937226509498126793?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ No customers? https://twitter.com/wallstreetapes/status/1937351868117893240?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ Mostly illegal customers? I see a disturbing pattern here. https://twitter.com/wallstreetapes/status/1937167054752395324?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ Time to find and raid illegals at home? https://twitter.com/thekevindalton/status/1937240394330194055?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ …

…Amid Widespread Opposition

We American conservatives have had a pretty good idea of what was coming in a Biden administration, and they live lived up to the horrendous expectations we had. Every single appointment and hire for every government department and three-letter agency has been a Leftist Activist, or a DEI hire, right down to the Joint Chiefs …

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #250: Skyscapes/Cloudscapes

This week's topic is tailor-made for me.  On my computer, I have an album dedicated to photos of clouds.  Here in the Pacific Northwest, the sky is as apt to be covered with gray clouds all winter, and they are never the same one minute to the next.  But when Spring arrives and the gray …

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #239: Finding Peace

On By rushbabe49In Nature, Photo challenges, photography, Random Musings About Life, Travel and Vacations1 Comment

For me, finding peaceful places always seems to include water.  Maybe it's because I grew up surrounded by bodies of water in the Seattle area.  Wherever we travel, we like to check out local lakes and rivers.  And when we are on a cruise ship, my favorite activity is sitting out on our stateroom balcony, …

Until this week, I had never been to Palm Springs, California.  My parents used to go there every winter for a few years, but that wasn't until I was an adult, an I never had a reason to go there before.  This week, Hubby and I hopped a plane and went down to a Hillsdale …

This week, there have been some excellent stories on the state of the governments' plans to require everyone to drive electric cars.  The state of Washington had already passed their law that prohibits the sale or registration of gasoline-powered cars by 2035 (please note that the year WAS 2030, and now, for some reason, it …

[Better late than never] Last Saturday’s Wall Street Journal had the biggest bunch of crap I have ever seen in one issue.

Last week's Weekend Edition of the Wall Street Journal had a number of articles that I just could not believe.  See if you don't agree that they all add up a big pile of excrement. Starting in the Review section, the cover story was about "The Once and Future Drug War", by James Marson, Julie …

...who tried, in a Twitter post (sorry, I will not link to anything on Twitter), to humiliate Trader Joe's Grocery into changing all their generic/ethnic product names?  She did her best to bring down the wrath of the "Twitter Mob" on the grocery chain, who names some of its products after the countries in which …

Corporations Invite The Fox Into the Hen House

On By rushbabe49In Culture, Economics, government, Health care, Politics in the Age of Trump1 Comment

The title of the Wall Street Journal article reads: Firms Seek Government Mask Mandate.  It seems that some companies are asking their state governments to do what California's Gavin Newsom and Washington's (sleepy) Jay Inslee have done-issue statewide requirements that all persons wear face coverings when outside their homes.  The Journal says: Rules vary by …
