California has built a second welfare system for people who broke the law to get here. And you're paying for it.
City Journal just sent reporters into four welfare offices in Southern California. They asked if someone here illegally could sign up for benefits. Every office said yes. Cash assistance. Health care. Tax credits. Car insurance. Even free phones.
At least $11 billion last year. Medi-Cal alone runs about $10 billion a year, more than double what Sacramento promised. And they're expanding food benefits again next year.
Federal law says you can't use federal money for this. So the state just built workarounds and handed you the bill.
Meanwhile my own homeowners insurance doubled. Families in El Cajon are working two jobs to make rent. Seniors are choosing between groceries and prescriptions. Nobody in Sacramento is building them a shadow program.
And when nobody checks where the money goes, this is what you get. Last week the feds charged 12 people in San Diego County with stealing more than $10 million from childcare subsidies. Ghost daycares. No kids. Just invoices. That's what happens when government hands out money and never asks a single question.
This is exactly why El Cajon sued the state over SB 54. Sacramento keeps writing laws that tie the hands of local cities and then sends us the tab.
I'm not going to pretend this is normal. It isn't. Take care of the people who live here legally and pay the bills. Every dollar should be checked. And our leaders in Sacramento should have to answer for why that's apparently too much to ask.
EXCLUSIVE: California has created a shadow welfare system for illegal aliens. Free housing, cash, healthcare, food, phones, college tuition, even car insurance—costing taxpayers more than $10 billion per year.
We went inside the system and exposed it all.

California families: “We’re drowning at $6.17 a gallon.”
California Republicans: “Got it.” They dropped two bills to suspend the state gas tax and give people immediate relief at the pump.
California Democrats and @GavinNewsom: “Nah. Not happening.”
And y’all think DEMOCRATS will lower gas prices!? 🤣🤣

California started construction on this $114 million wildlife crossing bridge 4 YEARS, 5 MONTHS ago
As of 7 days ago, it leads to nowhere
Newsom's CA in a nutshell:
Jameis Winston just might be the most inaccurate passer I’ve ever seen play quarterback in the NFL.
@Giants
Back to back examples of questionable decisions by @Dodgers 3B coach Dino Ebel:
1) Sends starting OF Tucker, who would have been out at the plate if catcher catches the ball.
2) Gets starter Edman hosed at the plate on another play where there is contact.
Playoffs in a week!

This is your sign to stop voting Democrat
Keep in mind, DMV vehicle registration renewal fees like this are billed every year. There is no limit to how much California Democrats will steal from you
This should be illegal

Karen Bass suddenly stepped down from LAHSA a few days ago. Today, HUD Secretary Turner just revealed that $75M of fraud was laundered through LAHSA.
Probably nothing!
People always ask me, “how can we fix LA? We don’t have the money!”
We have the money…it’s just being stolen! You wanna fix the budget? END THE FRAUD. I will bust the scammers and put your tax dollars back to work for YOU.

🚨 UNREAL: Mia Bonta, the wife of CA AG Rob Bonta (D), collected a $160K salary from a nonprofit filing fraudulent IRS forms with no valid tax-exempt status.
Rob Bonta funneled $517,500 in behested payments to nonprofits that employed her. That’s BLATANT fraud, and the Bontas should both be held accountable!

California is a test for America.
If we allow obviously corrupt and incompetent people to be reelected again and again—cementing a one-party state—what does that say?
Because if politicians can lie this brazenly, steal this much money, collapse our cities into third world squalor and ruin the greatest places on planet Earth—and still get reelected—they can get away with it ANYWHERE.
Everyone in America should not just be paying attention to what happens here, you should be HELPING defeat this evil.

CNN IS WORTHLESS !!!!!
CNN: “This is an undocumented immigrant...”
Miller: “They were here ILLEGALLY?”
CNN: “I want this to be a good-faith discussion...”
Miller: “When you use language designed to obscure the truth, that’s NOT good faith. An ILLEGAL ALIEN is an ILLEGAL ALIEN. They’re not ‘undocumented immigrants’.”
CNN: “Stephen, we’re trying to humanize the debate...”
Miller: “Humanize? Then let’s humanize the Penal Code too. The bank robber becomes a ‘specialist in unscheduled withdrawals’. The con artist turns into an ‘entrepreneur of alternative financial narratives’. The guy who breaks into your house uninvited is just a ‘visitor with pending documentation’. How about that?”
CNN: “That’s a crude analogy.”
Miller: “Crude is pretending federal law vanishes because CNN’s copy desk cooked up a cuddlier euphemism. ‘Undocumented’ sounds like someone who forgot their wallet in an Uber. No. It’s someone who crossed the border without authorization, stayed, and now the press treats the legal statute like it’s a matter of writing style.”
CNN: “But many contribute to the economy...”
Miller: “Ah, the classic argument: crime stops being crime if the person washes dishes or builds roofs. By the same token, the cigarette smuggler ‘contributes’ too, creates jobs in transport. Want us to call him an ‘informal logistics entrepreneur’? Would CNN go for that?”
CNN: “You’re polarizing.”
Miller: “No. I’m rejecting the marketing dictionary. You change the word, then accuse anyone who uses the legal term of being ‘inhumane’. It’s the oldest trick in the book: first soften the vocabulary, then declare moral victory. The United States is tired of this theater. Call it what it is. Or admit the goal was never clarity—it was narrative control.”

This is your reminder that California turned a $33 billion bullet train project into a $231 billion open ended hole with no working track after 25 years.
They never selected a company to make the trains, ran a $7 billion shortfall on the first segment, missed 9 federal grant conditions,
And then Newsom blamed Trump for it.
Terrible look. Terrible example.

Just another day at the office …
