Camp David is useful because it’s adjacent to D.C. But this..? West Palm Beach golf course will become toxic in 2028 and beyond. “designed to host international summits and house presidents when they take vacations in Florida”

Explain how this is being framed as a donor funding issue, when fact is that congress approved $257 million for Kennedy Center upgrades in the Big Beautiful Bill, and Trump is holding those public funds back?

You’re correct, at least for the moment. No egress window for 4th+. But windows are required per 2027 IBC code. www.archpaper.com/2026/08/juan...

👎🏻 This is a feature of the infamous Common Core curriculum, with cradle-to-career tracking and designed to fill the needs of employers, as opposed to educating individuals and acknowledging that people can reinvent themselves as adults, regardless of how schooling went.

Love it! It’s almost as if Newsom is playing checkers with Nixon’s dog, Checkers! If Gavin is thinking about a political future, he needs big-league swings, and quit watching Fox News for framing… that’s not the solution.

I refuse to take a presidential candidacy seriously, in any way shape or form. Sure, lots of loonies have declared candidacy, but they’re not serious. Hegseth will be lucky to survive 47th admin. And his Christian sub-sect is immediately disqualifying.

Secret bills, trailer bills, gut & amend bills are not the actions of a leader. Newsom should just move along, he is not the solution.

California Forever simply does not merit a carve-out, for anything. Projects from these hugely moneyed investors should fall under the same laws as everyone else. Say no to legislative bribery.

Thankfully, U.S. District Judge Kathleen M. Williams still has say in this. She last ruled that the lawsuit was filed for an "improper purpose" and was a "product of collusion" noting that there was no real adversarial conflict because the president essentially controlled both sides of the case.

Ah, they passed a fix, an Assembly Concurrent Resolution to order ACA-13 off the ballot at the last minute.

Skeptik @skeptik.bsky.social · 26/06/2026
You can’t remove an already approved ACA-13 via another ACA. The law doesn’t work that way. They f’cked this up.

ACA-21 cannot legally removed ACA-13 from the ballot. This entire “deal” is as of yet undetermined.

When they slaughter civilians in Gaza, they demonstrate how far they’ve drifted from their principles. The rights of Israelis do not supersede the human rights of others.
