California: Did you expect a different outcome?...

 if you did, you need a reality check.

It progressed to its logical conclusion just as I expected. It's sometimes nice to not have surprises.

California is lost.

Sympathy and prayers for the remaining conservatives who live there.

As usual, I have tabs overflowing with great stuff to read and synthesize, with no real time to do so. I'll leave you with some links at the bottom to educate, and even entertain you.

First:

Pay Attention to Everything you Hear or See

I'm going to take just a moment to address "conservative" radio since I don't watch TV.  I have the radio going most days while I'm working on my many projects. Yesterday, while moving the washer and dryer out of their cubby hole (a nightmare job) to finish painting the walls, I was listening to Clay and Buck who took over Rush's timeslot. 

Their guest was a doctor, from John's Hopkins, whose main message was "everyone should get the jab."  Well, who can argue with a doctor from John's Hopkins? Now Buck and Clay maintain everyone should make their own decisions concerning being injected with an unknown substance, and there may be certain risks associated with the jab thereby quasi maintaining their status as conservative. And yet, this is what that doctor said concerning natural immunity vs the "vaccine": emphasis mine

Well, ignoring natural immunity has put the credibility of public health, because we really want to encourage — I want to encourage, most doctors want to encourage — all adults who have not had the infection to get vaccinated and to do it quickly. And that message got really hurt by all this dishonesty around natural immunity, ignoring it, blowing it off.

So that was a big setback, and I think part of the issue right now is that they are coming around way too late. It’s sad because, to be honest with you, tens of thousands of Americans died December through April when we were rationing our limited vaccine supply and we were giving it to people with natural immunity. We should have had them step aside. Dr. Marty Makary 

Farther down the program transcript: my emphasis again;

BUCK: And what about the numbers of those who are in the ICU who are vaccinated versus not vaccinated? Are we getting really good data on that?

DR. MAKARY: I think we are, but what they’re actually doing is when they’re saying people are in there who have been vaccinated, some of those are just incidental and some people are saying they’ve been vaccinated, and they really haven’t. So really almost everybody in the hospital with covid and very sick is an unvaccinated adult, and that’s where we should be focusing all of our efforts.

That is a provable blatant lie! 

Following Clay and Buck is mouth breather, Sean Hannity.  Seriously folks, if I have to hear him say one more time, "People are begging me to tell them what to do, but I'm not a doctor, so I won't do it."  Are you serious?  People are begging for advice from Hannity concerning their health?  If you believe that, it's time for another reality check, or maybe checking yourself into rehab. 

Day after day he touts the party line of consulting with your doctor, looking at your situation, blah, blah, blah.  Yet, his only guests are ones who push the jab.

It harkens back to a question I asked back on July 26: Who Do You Trust? The answer is, no one!

Do not even attempt to tell me these people are not coerced into spreading propaganda in order to keep their cushy jobs.
