California has seen a mass exodus of companies from their state in recent years due to ridiculously high taxes, burdensome regulations, and the draconian lock down policies of Gavin Newsom during Covid-19.

Are they trying to fix any of this in order to retain the businesses that haven’t fled? Nope. In fact, they are about to make things even worse.

California is now planning to force companies to disclose any historic ties to slavery. Is Governor Newsom aware that California never even had slavery?

From the New York Post:

The bill is facing pushback from insurance companies, which argue it largely repeats an earlier California law requiring insurers to disclose past policies issued to slaveholders that covered the death or injury of enslaved people.

New York Life Insurance Company, Aetna Life Insurance Company and American International Group, known as AIG, were among the companies that disclosed ties to enslaved people and slaveholders.

Some reparations advocates have viewed the measure as a significant step forward, while others have questioned how much of an impact it would actually have.

The bill, known as Assembly Bill 2599, would require companies with more than $100 million in annual worldwide sales to search their records for evidence that they, their predecessors or subsidiaries bought or sold enslaved people or provided financial support for those transactions, including through insurance or loans.

The measure would only take effect if the Legislature sets aside funding for it, a requirement added through late amendments.

Once funding is allocated, the California Civil Rights Department would be required to create a digital platform for the disclosures.

Companies are going to keep leaving, and who can blame them?

Hey big companies in California, just move to Texas. Get the heck out of the People’s Republic of California.

As for Newsom, if you want to start forcing people to disclose historic links to slavery, why don’t you start with the Democratic Party? https://t.co/XZ5HXeYQKE

With the midterm elections approaching, you would think that Democrats would want to campaign with the last two members of their party to occupy the White House.

Not this time.

Dems running for election in 2026 want absolutely nothing to do with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. The Gateway Pundit recently reported on how this is happening in Iowa, but it is happening all over the place. Dems are avoiding Biden and Harris like the plague.

ABC News reports:

With less than 70 days until the midterm election, some Democrats running in the most conservative areas are sending a clear message to former President Joe Biden and former Vice President Kamala Harris: stay out of their races.

In Iowa, Democratic Senate nominee state Rep. Josh Turek — who has welcomed the support of former President Barack Obama and has twice won a seat in a district that voted for President Donald Trump — was asked if Harris should campaign for him. He simply said “No.”…

Alaska Democratic Senate nominee Mary Peltola recently distanced herself from Harris after her political action committee backed Peltola in a fundraising email.

“Mary isn’t seeking endorsements from anyone from the Lower 48 — her focus is and always will be Alaska,” Peltola’s campaign told The New York Times.

The blunt rejections, coming within days of each other in two states Trump carried by double digits in 2024, underscore a reality for Democrats: candidates fighting for independent and moderate Republican voters increasingly see the party’s brand and most recent presidential ticket as a liability.

Why would Democrats want to avoid this winning team? Didn’t Biden get 81 million votes in 2020? More than even Obama in 2008?

Ed Morrissey of Hot Air points out that this isn’t even the party’s biggest problem:

The Biden-Harris Hangover isn’t even the worst problem Democrats face in this cycle. It appeared to be their biggest problem at the start of the year, when Jill Biden’s book first drew attention, and the Bidens announced that Joe’s supposed book would soon follow. (It has since been postponed.) The rise of the Democratic Socialists and Senate nominations of its radicals in Florida, Maine, and Michigan, as well in House and gubernatorial races in Wisconsin, Oklahoma, and New York have created much heavier baggage in red and purple states. The GOP is teeing up an Akin strategy for its midterm convention next week in Dallas to paint the entire party as radical revolutionaries.

At this point, you have to wonder if Biden and Harris will even be invited to the 2028 Democrat convention.

New footage shows the moment that FBI agents swarmed former Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell and seized his electronics at San Francisco International Airport earlier this month.

Federal agents seized Swalwell’s iPhone and MacBook Pro laptop as part of an investigation into allegations of sexual assault.

Swalwell was dressed in a hoodie as agents approached him after deplaning. He was not arrested.

WATCH:

In April, the Justice Department launched an investigation into allegations of sexual assault against Swalwell.

Eric Swalwell resigned from Congress and dropped out of the California governor’s race due to the sexual assault allegations earlier this year.

At least five women have come forward alleging they were sexually assaulted by Swalwell.

One Swalwell accuser came forward and spoke at press conference in Beverly Hills in April.

The 5th Swalwell accuser to come forward, Lonna Drews, is represented by attorney Lisa Bloom.

“I represent a brave Eric Swalwell accuser. Her disturbing story is forthcoming. We call upon him to resign from Congress and the governor’s race, and we will cooperate with authorities in their investigation,” Lisa Bloom (Gloria Allred’s daughter) said on the evening before the press conference.

Lisa Bloom also disclosed that three other women have contacted her with accusations against Eric Swalwell.

Lonna Drews recounted how Eric Swalwell drugged and raped her in 2018 and choked her to the point of unconsciousness in a West Hollywood hotel room.

“In 2018, while I was living and working as a model in Beverly Hills, and I also owned a fashion software company, I had contact with Eric Swalwell on three separate occasions,” the alleged sexual assault victim, Lonna Drews, said.

“I knew he was married at the time and that his wife was pregnant. He was my friend. On the third occasion, I believe he drugged my drink,” she said.

Lonna Drews said Swalwell drugged her drink and violently raped her.

“He raped me, and he choked me. And while he was choking me, I lost consciousness. And I thought I died. I did not consent to any sexual activity,” she said through tears.

“I would never have engaged in a consensual sexual encounter with Eric Swalwell,” she said.

Following Lonna Drews’ presser, the Los Angeles DA opened an investigation into Swalwell.

Swalwell is also under investigation by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office after a former staffer came forward to CNN and said the California Democrat raped her in 2024.

The Swalwell staffer said she was sexually assaulted by Swalwell in 2019.

The staffer also said Swalwell raped her in 2024, years after she left his employment.

Rep. Maxine Waters recently told followers that the Democrats are doing ‘pretty good’ with regards to the midterms, before warning people that when it comes to Democrats vs. DSA leftists, that the ‘white media’ is trying to divide Democrats in a quest for ratings.

How is this woman a member of Congress? Every time she opens her mouth, something incredibly stupid and offensive comes out.

Which media outlet do you suppose she is referring to here? CNN? MSNOW? They’re talking about this subject.

From the Western Lensman:

Maxine Waters claims something called “white media” wants a Dem establishment vs Democrat Socialist fight.

“Some of the media, mostly the white media, are interested in a fight in order to get their ratings up.”

What?

This race-grifting clown just managed to concoct one of the most brain-wormed takes imaginable.

Is there a single member of the Democrat Party who can go ten minutes without trying to make everything about race?

This is why we need term limits we get the ramblings of a 200 year old who’s been in office since 1987

That’s rich coming from someone who has made a career of exploiting identity politics and deliberately trying to turn Americans against each other. Unbelievable.

A Las Vegas jury on Monday found former Crips gang leader Duane “Keffe D” Davis guilty of first-degree murder in the killing of rapper Tupac Shakur.

25-year-old Tupac Shakur was gunned down in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas, Nevada, in September 1996.

Rap record executive Suge Knight was driving a BMW while Tupac was riding as a passenger when passengers in a white Cadillac pulled up and opened fire on the rapper.

Prosecutors did not allege that Duane Davis pulled the trigger, but under Nevada law, anyone who helps aid, abet, or orchestrate a murder can be criminally charged.

Duane Davis is the only person to be charged in the murder of Tupac Shakur.

WATCH:

NBC News reported:

The man accused of orchestrating rapper Tupac Shakur’s killing in 1996 has been found guilty of first-degree murder with use of a deadly weapon in the Las Vegas slaying nearly 30 years ago.

For nearly two weeks, Clark County prosecutors argued that Duane “Keffe D” Davis, 63, was a former “shotcaller” for the South Side Compton Crips in Los Angeles and that he sought revenge on Shakur after the beloved rapper attacked his nephew.

Following Monday’s verdict, district Judge Carli Kierny ordered Davis to remain in jail until his Oct. 13 sentencing. Davis indicated he intends to file an appeal.

Davis’ son sat in the courtroom and covered his face with one hand after the verdict was read, The Associated Press reported. Sekyiwa “Set” Shakur, Tupac’s sister, cried and reached back to a person behind her.

Davis was not charged with pulling the fatal trigger, but under Nevada law, someone who helps another person commit murder can be convicted of the crime. Davis is the only person still alive who rode in the same car as the shooter, prosecutors said.
