Per the DOJ, no group in the U.S. commits more acts of domestic terrorism than white supremacists & right-wing extremists. Not Hispanic immigrants, not Muslims, not African Americans. That’s not hearsay or conjecture, republicans have an overt extremism problem. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

California’s sanctuary laws mostly prohibit local law enforcement from assisting with immigration enforcement, but they allow county sheriffs to transfer detained immigrants to ICE custody in some cases. In San Diego, those transfers spiked last year.

Before the Immigration Act of 1924, no one came to the U.S. with ‘papers’. They showed up at a port, were screened & stayed if they passed a basic medical/mental health inspection. Anyone who says their ancestors came here ‘legally’ is full of sh*t. Your ancestors showed up & did the bare minimum.

The sheriff of San Diego County says she is simply following the law by transferring detained immigrants to ICE custody. But local advocates say California’s sanctuary law is discretionary; it doesn’t force sheriffs to transfer inmates.

There was an attempted kidnapping in our neighborhood last year where dude blocked traffic, tried to pull on the crowd, and then dropped his gun and screamed at everyone basically asking for a timeout. More people will die until they're stopped. Many more people than we know about have been killed.

There are about 200 Tesla Semis on the road, so 0.5% of the them have already been involved in a fatal incident, which comes out to about 50 per 10,000 vehicles. That’s roughly 14x the general large-truck per-vehicle fatal-crash involvement rate. Spectacular product.

San Diego County goes 60/40 for Dems but has a Republican District Attorney because the DA election is non-partisan and it's not worth enough to anyone to send mail out that says "she is a Republican" to 3 million people. So we get results like this absurd "antifa" prosecution.
