Survey Note: Economic Implications of California Secession
The analysis discusses the implications of California’s potential secession from the U.S., termed “Calexit,” highlighting significant economic vulnerabilities. With 45-47% of its land federally owned, including crucial resources like national parks and coastal waters, California would face severe revenue losses. The interconnectedness of its economy with the U.S. market means trade disruptions could lead to industry relocations and job losses. Internal challenges, like high poverty and homelessness rates, would worsen without federal funding. Higher taxes to offset losses could worsen business and wealth exodus, ultimately jeopardizing California’s economic foundation and suggesting that remaining in the union offers a more viable future.

The article critiques Larry Walsh’s blog on President Trump, accusing it of bias and misinformation regarding Trump’s actions toward Brazil and the investigations into James Comey and John Brennan. It defends Trump’s tariffs on Brazil as legitimate, arguing they are part of a broader precedent among U.S. presidents. The author counters Walsh’s portrayal of Bolsonaro and highlights Lula’s past corruption to question Walsh’s credibility. Furthermore, it disputes Walsh’s claims of Trump defending dictators, emphasizing that Trump’s interactions were often transactional. Lastly, it asserts that the DOJ investigations into Comey and Brennan are based on serious allegations, not personal vendettas by Trump.
The Semantics of Jeffrey Epstein’s “Client List”: Unpacking the Narrative
The assertion that “Jeffrey Epstein didn’t have a client list” is often used to downplay allegations of criminal activities within his network. While Epstein may not have maintained a labeled list of clients, substantial evidence—including flight logs, contact lists, and victim testimonies—supports claims of his systematic exploitation and sex trafficking. His sophisticated operations involved fragmented records rather than a singular document of wrongdoing. A thorough forensic investigation could unveil more about his connections. Thus, shifting focus from the absence of a client list to the broader web of evidence is essential for understanding the true extent of his illicit activities and seeking justice for survivors.
How Europeans View the American Shift
Larry’s posts make me reflect on how my mornings have shifted from my childhood reading lighthearted humor of the Sunday Comics to the predictable outrage of Larry Walsh’s Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS)-fueled posts. His latest piece, “How Europeans View the American Shift,” is yet another echo of mainstream media talking points, lacking rigorous research, journalistic […]
Riverside City Council Fails Again
The Riverside City Council once again demonstrated its troubling willingness to cede the city’s autonomy to Governor Gavin Newsom and California’s one-party system. As a charter city, Riverside has the constitutional authority to govern its own affairs, free from excessive state interference. Yet, the council’s actions—or rather, inactions—reveal a disturbing pattern of deference to Sacramento’s […]
Trump’s Strike on Iran May Spark the Nuclear Arms Race He Hoped to Prevent
Hey Larry, your post “Trump’s Strike on Iran May Spark the Nuclear Arms Race He Hoped to Prevent” is more empty clickbait from the mainstream media, dripping with sentimentality and short on research, facts, or objectivity. You’re fearmongering about Trump’s attack on Iran sparking a new nuclear arms race while downplaying the real threat—the nuclear […]
Newsom’s Budget Cuts Disability Spending While Favoring Special Interests
Governor Gavin Newsom’s 2025-26 budget proposal reveals a $12 billion deficit and prioritizes special interests over vulnerable Californians, particularly those with disabilities. Major cuts include limits on In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) and reinstated asset tests for Medi-Cal, risking coverage for hundreds of thousands. While safeguarding funds for illegal immigration programs and public employee unions, the budget fails to address chronic underfunding of disability services, echoing a history of cuts by the Democratic Party. Advocates are urged to focus their criticisms on state leadership rather than federal issues, as Newsom’s actions jeopardize critical support for the disabled community.
LA. The Rehearsal, D.C.
Larry, your latest post, “L.A. The Rehearsal, D.C” . Is the Power Play presents another media-fueled biased rant that skips factual information and focuses heavily on emotional fearmongering. Your narrative frames troop deployment in Los Angeles and the upcoming D.C. parade as evidence of authoritarian overreach but detailed examination reveals your argument falls apart. Let’s […]
Time for Honesty: The Truth Behind the Chaos
Let’s call this what it really is. The so-called “protesters” wreaking havoc in Los Angeles are not champions of justice or defenders of democracy—they are rioters. Many of them are organized, some even paid, and all of them are being used as pawns in a larger game. These rioters claim to oppose the National Guard […]
Another Response to TDS Larry
The post critiques employers hiring illegal immigrants, demanding harsher penalties for such practices. It argues that Democratic leaders exacerbate the issue through divisive language that perpetuates stereotypes about immigrant labor. Such discussions overlook the importance of legal migrant worker programs like H-2A and H-2B, which address labor shortages in agriculture and other sectors. The content highlights the misleading narrative that illegal immigrants only fill low-skilled jobs, pointing to data showing their employment in varied industries. It concludes that Democrats’ open-border rhetoric serves corporate interests while neglecting the potential of unemployed Americans to take these roles at fair wages.
