PADILLA (DRAPER) Division SF Case Number S249859 07/18/2018 Order to show cause issued Time constraints require the court to decide immediately whether to permit Proposition 9 to be placed on the November 6, 2018, ballot pending final resolution of this matter. Although our past decisions establish that it is usually more appropriate to review challenges to ballot propositions or initiative measures after an election (Costa v.

shill: A person paid to endorse a product favorably, while pretending to be impartial. If ever you wanted confirmation that ruling structures are biased toward conflict, you got it over the past two days.If ever you wanted confirmation that public intellectuals jump to obey power, you got it over the past two days. As much as I avoid the bullhorns from New York and DC, I couldn’t escape them this time. Evidently Donald Trump had a summit with Vladimir Putin and uttered unspeakable words. After Putin denied interfering in the 2016 election, Trump said this: He just said it’s not Russia. I will say this, I don’t see any reason why it would be. And from that, all hell broke ...
Legalizing Pot Sales Means...Higher Home Values?

The last decade has seen a slow move toward nationwide marijuana legalization. The Pew Research Center reported at the beginning of January that 61% of Americans support marijuana legalization. An April Quinnipiac University poll put the number at 63%. There’s clear and unprecedented support for legal pot. But what will happen to our communities and our quality of life if marijuana is legalized? Moreover, talk is cheap: people might say they want pot legalized, but do they walk the talk, so to speak, with where they choose to live? Apparently, they do. According to new research published in the July 2018 issue of Economic Inquiry, legalizing retail sales of marijuana in Colorado ...
If You Value The Reputation Of Your Restaurant, Maybe You Should Stop Serving Cops

from the time-to-start-kicking-against-the-pricks dept Cops lie. This is a fact. As a business owner, it is in your best interest to oust known liars from your premises, if only for liability reasons. Sure, this will result in backlash from cop supporters, but so will the alternative. Cops have placed themselves on a plateau of humanity far above their fellow citizens. Any perceived slight becomes a reason to drape themselves in an appropriated American flag and decry the masses for failing to show them the respect they feel they have no duty to earn. There have been several reports of low-wage fast food employees saying and/or doing mean things to cops in their restaurants. Sometimes, ...

There are some ugly truths that need to be mentioned that are normally not discussed about retail politics. The media knows and understands them,but don't care because they exist to stir up people in order to turn a profit. Problem number 1 is Trump is not a politician. He is a private citizen and a international businessman. As such,he has lived his entire life playing the political "game" under different rules. Some rules are identical,such as describing someone you can't stand but need to temporarily ally with in order to "sell" your product,be it ideological/political or commercial as "My good friend!",while the reality is you would love to set ...

San Francisco began registering non-citizens, including undocumented immigrants, to register to vote Monday in the November election for the city school board, reported The San Francisco Chronicle. The move follows passage of a 2016 ballot measure by San Francisco voters opening school elections to non-citizens who are over the age of 18, city residents and have children under age 19, reported the publication. “This is no-brainer legislation,” Hillary Ronen, a San Francisco supervisor, told the Chronicle. “Why would we not want our parents invested in the education of their children?” “We want to give immigrants the right to vote,” Norman Yee, also a county ...
Why Libertarianism is wrong

I am feeling energetic today, and I thought I would tackle an issue that I have been thinking about for weeks now. As with many deep discussions, it started with a beer between friends. The topic of discussions were the merits of Libertarians and the philosophy. Maybe it is the contrarian in me, but I’ve come to the conclusion that I think the Libertarians’ philosophy is wrong . Before we begin, there are some ideas from Libertarians that I find attractive – I like the idea of a smaller government, and I like the idea of allowing markets to operate more freely; however, when you take a Libertarians at their word, I think the entire philosophy starts to break down. Defining ...
Nunes declares war on the media

The California GOP congressman says his local paper is working with ‘radical left-wing groups.’ LOS ANGELES — Devin Nunes is sitting on an eye-popping pile of money he's raised in recent months, with little reason to spend it yet. Except for one splurge: an unusually aggressive — and sustained — offensive against his local newspaper, which he is tearing into as “fake news.” In a campaign ad running more than two minutes — and appearing not only online, but also on radio and TV — Nunes casts the dominant newspaper in his California district as a “band of creeping correspondents,” criticizing The Fresno Bee for its routine reporting ...

First Win for Trump-Putin Summit: Agreement to Restrain Iran in Syria Joel B. Pollack Breitbart 18 Jul 2018 President Donald Trump has been criticized by the media and by Beltway politicians of both parties for his meeting with Russian president Vladimir Putin in Helsinki on Monday. But the summit has already produced a very significant win: namely, agreement to avoid a war in the Middle East by restraining Iran in Syria. As Breitbart News columnist Caroline Glick noted last month, it was crucial that Trump confront Putin over Syria, because Russia was about to allow Iranian and Hezbollah soldiers, dressed in Syrian uniforms, to move into southwestern Syria along the border with Israel ...

Update: Mueller Suspected of Giving Podesta Brothers Immunity to Indict Manafort and Is HIDING THIS FROM PUBLIC by Jim Hoft Gateway Pundit July 17, 2018 Earlier today it was reported that Robert Mueller is seeking to give immunity to five potential witnesses in the Paul Manafort trial according to a new court filing Tuesday. It’s now suspected that two of the witnesses are creepy and criminal Podesta brothers, the Democrats’ poster boys. Mueller is filing the requests under seal; Manafort is facing charges of bank and tax fraud and his trial begins next Wednesday in the Eastern District of Virginia. The five potential witnesses have not been charged and their identity has ...

Crowdstrike Analyst Who Ran Forensics on DNC Server Used to Work For Mueller at FBI by Cristina Laila Gateway Pundit July 18, 2018 To this day, the DNC servers have not been forensically inspected by the FBI so we have no proof the servers were even hacked, and if hacked, by whom? Hillary’s fake Russia dossier and Crowdstrike’s report blaming Russia for hacking the DNC server is what the Special Counsel witch hunt hinges on. It’s all fake. The crime scene, the DNC servers, have yet to even be examined. James Comey admitted in a June 2017 testimony that the FBI failed to examine the DNC servers and relied on a 3rd party contracted by the DNC [Crowdstrike] confirming the ...

Imagine the ideal food. One that contains all the nutrients necessary to meet, but not exceed, our daily nutrient demands. If such a food existed, consuming it, without eating any other, would provide the optimal nutritional balance for our body.Such a food does not exist. But we can do the next best thing.The key is to eat a balance of highly nutritional foods, that when consumed together, do not contain too much of any one nutrient, to avoid exceeding daily recommended amounts.Scientists studied more than 1,000 foods, assigning each a nutritional score. The higher the score, the more likely each food would meet, but not exceed your daily nutritional needs, when eaten in combination with ...

New Kentucky Law Puts Limits on Drone Spying, Will Help Thwart Federal Surveillance Program

By Michael Maharrey On Saturday, a Kentucky law went into effect requiring police to get a warrant before engaging in drone surveillance in most situations. The new law not only establishes important privacy protections at the state level, it will also help thwart the federal surveillance state. Rep. Diane St. Onge (R-Lakeside Park) and Rep. Reginald Meeks (D-Louisville) sponsored House Bill 22 (HB22). The new law prohibits the use of a drone for a “search” unless authorized under the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution and Section 10 of the Kentucky Constitution. In effect, the officers will now have to get a warrant based on probable cause before gathering ...
What To Learn From The Social Justice Warrior Who Was Eaten By His Own Mob

Mob compliance is a vicious and deadly cycle. The only way to stop the cycle is to stop complying with the mob’s demands. “Twilight Zone” creator Rod Serling predicted back in the 1950s that we’d soon have a citizenry unable to think. Many of his screenplays warned of the specter of runaway mob psychology. Today it seems that’s exactly the sort of citizenry we’ve got. Social media trolling drives mindless street theater, which drives more mindless social media trolling, and on and on. Most Americans aren’t taken in by it, but the illusions mob behavior promotes can wreak havoc even on reasonable people. The mob mindset seems to be in hyper-drive. ...
Is the Media the “Enemy of the People”?

If an enemy controlled the media, would the news look any different? Traveling on Air Force One to Helsinki, President Trump tweeted that the media was the “enemy of the people”. It wasn’t the first time that he had said or tweeted it. And it never fails to get a rise out of the media. President Trump had referred to the New York Times, CNN and NBC News as “the enemy of the American people” shortly after taking office. At CPAC, soon afterward, he declared, “I called the fake news the enemy of the people, and they are — they are the enemy of the people.” Trump’s comments inspired Washington Post and New York Times pieces comparing him to ...

You can watch the video below as it appears on the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s YouTube channel: Here’s a shorter version of the same video, which shows the police officer briefly take his hands off the steering wheel of his squad car to shoot at the fleeing vehicle through his own windshield. “Shots fired! Shots fired!” the officer says into his police radio during the chase.

3 Problems With Libertarianism - After Economics

Lauren Southern just released a video criticizing modern libertarianism. She’s got some points, but imo they mostly apply to the modern libertarian movement and not libertarianism qua libertarianism as an intellectual thingy. This article points out my three issues with the latter, but I largely agree with her points as well. I argue: Anarcho-capitalists are too small a share of libertariansAnarcho-capitalism alone is improved on through the addition of ChristianityAnarcho-capitalism + Christianity is better identified with conservatism than libertarianism. 1 – Anarcho-capitalists are too small a share of libertarians What does libertarianism mean to you?

Brazile, Rice, Obama Gave Russian Hackers Free Rein By Daniel John Sobieski American Thinker July 17, 2018 The conveniently timed indictments of 12 more Russians by Deputy A.G. (or should we just face reality and ditch the word "deputy"?) Rosenstein, who will never see the inside of an American courtroom, probably includes the Russian who "hacked" into John Podesta's email account secured with the password "password." Rosenstein was no doubt pleased with himself to announce that 12 Russian spies were caught – er, spying, on President Obama's watch, by the way, but neglected to include one small detail in his announcement – namely, that DNC ...
