  • Economists have suggested that California's reparations bill could amount to $800 billion
  • Earlier this month, the number was estimated to be $640 billion
  • Experts said that it's possible that the new number will need to be increased at a later date
What's next ?
California asking the federal government to " bail " the out ?

The Los Angeles County Police Chiefs Association says it was blindsided by the proposal, only learning about it on Friday, and believes it is conspicuously timed to occur during the same week as two major local law enforcement events — the Baker to Vegas Challenge Cup Relay and the Tri-County Police Chiefs Conference.
“In the midst of surging crime rates, pre-arrest decriminalization policies, and a complete shift away from sound public safety responses, it appears the County BOS is poised to exacerbate our current plight,” says a letter from the group to the supervisors, obtained by the Southern California News Group. “We do not stand against reform and we have been active participants in these efforts. However, we are concerned with the rushed motion under conspicuous circumstances, that does not allow for stakeholder participation.”

Damn. Didn't see this one coming.


When they said he was killed in a strange place at 2:30 in the morning I just chalked it up to him being another weird tech CEO who sleeps 3 hours a night or walks 5 miles each way to work or meditates in the desert for a week with no water or food.

Who was saying that we would be surprised by who the alleged killer would be ?

I'm not surprised at all.
They had tried to play it up as it not being another resident of SF.
But it was.

Southern California Edison, Pacific Gas & Electric and San Diego Gas & Electric filed a joint proposal this week for a flat-rate charge based on income.

The plan would break monthly bills in two parts: The fixed-income rate, plus a reduced usage charge based on consumption.

Under the proposal, it would cost as little as $15 a month for low-income households and up to $85 more per month for households making more than $180,000 a year.
The income-based bill proposal is part of the companies' compliance with legislation passed by the California state government last year requiring these types of plans for utilities.

The California Public Utilities Commission would have to approve the proposal and make a final decision by mid-2024. The fixed rate could start showing up on bills as soon as 2025.

“Firstly, the question we must address is, why are we affirming the mental confusion of this boy and putting the safety of women in jeopardy by allowing mentally confused men to use women’s spaces?” the female student questioned during public comments at the Riverside Unified School District Board Meeting.

She added that the teen boy, who allegedly believes he is female, has been accessing the girls’ restroom and locker room.

“Of course, any man who claims he is a woman will accept it, but what about the women? What about the true girls like myself who are female down to our DNA?” she continued. “Why don’t we ever get a say in whether or not we are comfortable with this? The truth is, we aren’t. The majority of us aren’t, and yet nothing has been done to protect the safety of these women.

“I will conclude with this. It all starts with you. You are in charge of the safety of us women…so please do something about it. Thank you,” she said.

The boy in question is huge, the video shows him to be at least a foot taller than the girl.
