So, either one of two circumstances is going on right now in the cloudy and cobwebby mind of California Governor Edmund G. “Jerry” Brown (D). Either he’s prepping for a run at the 2020 Presidential Primary for the Democratic Party nomination, OR, he just really, really, really egotistical and needs everyone to “LOOK AT ME!” right now.
Many of the reports dealing with California usually revolve around its “green energy” status, about how amazing Californians seem to be at conservation and maintaining lifestyles at above-average levels while still allowing nature to remain untouched. It is, in the words of the late George Carlin, a “big crock of s**t!” As it turns out, believe it or not, even New Jersey has a better environmental record than the most populous state in the nation.
With that in mind, the fact that it indeed has the highest population of all the states, it must be a goldmine for taxes. One would think that. And one would be wrong. What is failed to be discussed in many of the glowing press releases by the state and the governor’s website itself is the massive lack of money flowing through the state, at least in excess, that is. There’s plenty of money spent, no doubt about that. But as far as spare money…money to be used for infrastructure, and for support is ridiculously over-bloated pension system, the state of California is beyond broke. Issuing IOUs a few years ago to their tax return recipients is the lowest of the low when it comes to state mismanagement. And just think: If Jerry Brown wants to run for president, how much more “good” could he do for the country? I’m not suggesting that this is all his fault, because it’s not. However, he is the governor and this is his problem right now.
So, what does Jerry Brown think is the number one priority for California as it stands today? Well, before we go into that, let’s take a quick look at his many successes.
Hey, Moonbeam, wipe you butt with your agreement!
Why isn’t Jeff Sessions prosecuting Jerry Brown? Exactly what has Sessions been doing for the last 6 months because he sure as hell hasn’t charged anyone with a crime and prosecuted them. Obama and the Clintons must be laughing their asses off. Sessions has to go. He worthless
I remember when this clown served as Governor several years ago. He put the state’s finances into the hole and heavily in debt. When his father was Governor, he did exactly the same thing.
Obviously, Californians did learn their lesson the first time around with this idiot, so I guess they get just what they deserve.
Individual States don’t have the Constitutional Right to enter into treaties with foreign countries
He is a total idiot! Always has been!
Doesn’t matter what moonbeam does he doesn’t have pockets deep enough to get his state solvent let alone fund china. What an absolute moron
That could be very well be considered treason. States cannot enter treaties with foreign nations… Some of these guys should learn what is in The Constitution!
Should not happen!!
John Keogh, I make all kinds of sense. It’s better known as illegal. A governor cannot make agreements with other countries that involve the use of federal funds. If it involves California, it’s still illegal. His boundaries are California itself. Making deals with foreign countries is overstepping his position. That is for federal government only. Makes perfect sense. Moonbeam has been off the rails for some time.
Can a governor legally do this? Well what does it matter? The Democrat party is all about resistance, rebellion, and lawlessness.
