Gov. Jerry 'Moonbeam' Brown's Warning to Fellow Democrats
Larry Elder | December 20, 2018
Listen to this dick.
Outgoing California Gov. Jerry Brown recently said, "The weakness of the Republican Party has let the Democratic Party, I think, go get further out than I think the majority of people want." When a tax-spend-and-regulate Democrat who signed legislation making California the first "sanctuary state" says the Democrats have gotten too "further out" for the majority, that party would be wise to take notice. In the November elections, California Democrats won veto-proof supermajorities in both chambers of state government. No Republican currently holds an elected state-wide office.
Brown seems to recognize that there are only so many "rich" people and that one doesn't become rich by being too stupid to know that the rich have options. California has the highest state income tax in the country, with a top marginal rate of 13.3 percent. Even left-wing, Trump-hating California resident Bill Maher complained about the state's high income taxes in 2013: "ln California, I just want to say: Liberals, you could actually lose me. ... Rich people ... actually do pay the freight in this country ... like 70 percent" of the taxes.
As to who bears responsibility for the Democratic lurch to the left, Brown blames Republican "weakness." Follow that? Republican "weakness" practically forced the Democrats to pursue a hard-left agenda: abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement and pursuing "Medicare-for-all," $15 minimum wage, tuition-free college, and climate change alarmism.
Brown is warning the Democrats that President Donald Trump's agenda is closer to what Americans want than that of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the House's newly elected self-described socialist. And Brown is looking at results. Even the international community is grudgingly acknowledging the merits of Trump's positions.
Take, for instance, Trump's actions against China over the country's theft of intellectual property and the forced transfer of proprietary technology as a condition of doing business. Nicolas Chapuis, the EU ambassador of China, also recently sounded downright Trumpian while complaining of this practice: "This has to stop or to be regulated ... so that there is no so-called 'forced tech transfer.'"

Wonder if CNN will award him Fake Journalist of the Year ?
Award-winning journalist Claas Relotius wrote fake news, German magazine Der Spiegel says
BERLIN (AP) — An award-winning journalist who worked for Der Spiegel, one of Germany’s leading news outlets, has left the weekly magazine after evidence emerged that he committed journalistic fraud “on a grand scale” over a number of years, the publication said Wednesday.
Spiegel published a lengthy report on its website after conducting an initial internal probe of the work of Claas Relotius, a 33-year-old staff writer known for vivid investigative stories. The magazine said Relotius resigned Monday after admitting some of his articles included made-up material from interviews that never happened.
The Hamburg-based magazine said Relotius contributed almost to 60 articles published in print or online since 2011, first as a freelance writer before being hired full-time last year. The reporter previously worked for other German and Swiss publications and won numerous awards, including CNN Journalist of the Year in 2014.

New York Jets Players, Coaches Pledge $800K to Fight Social Inequality

Dec. 20 (UPI) — The New York Jets announced that players, coaches and team executives will donate $800,000 to five non-profit organizations to fight social inequality.
Players and individuals from the team’s coaching staff committed $200,000 to the cause, which the organization matched. Jets Chairman and CEO Christopher Johnson also contributed a $250,000 donation.
The New York Jets Foundation and the NFL Foundation’s Player Matching Grant committed additional funds to help the team’s mission of social equality.
“I am extremely proud of our team for their commitment to empowering our communities through their donations and participation in outreach programs,” said Johnson in a statement. “While it was a collective effort within the organization to make this donation possible, the players desire to make a difference fueled this endeavor. We are excited to help position these five organizations to continue their work in our communities.”
The Jets have a leadership committee, which formed in 2017, that is comprised of players Kelvin Beachum, Ben Ijalana, Steve McClendon and Josh McCown, along with Johnson, Jets President Neil Glat and other executives of the team. The group selected the non-profit organizations that received the donations.
The Black Alliance for Just Immigration, JustLeadershipUSA, Breakthrough New York, The Legal Aid Society’s Decarceration Project, and The New York Foundling each will receive a $160,000 contribution from the team.
The aforementioned non-profits have core values based on education opportunities, community and police relations, criminal justice reform and other issues that relate to poverty and racial inequality.
“Inadequate access to resources for education, poverty reduction, or racial equality has effected every member of our locker room,” said Beachum in a statement to the team’s official website. “From the communities we came from, to the one we now call home, it is abundantly clear that these organizations are not only needed but are causing direct change in the fight against social inequality.”
The recent community outreach from the Jets is nothing new from the franchise. Johnson pledged $1 million to the American Red Cross for Hurricane Harvey relief efforts in 2017

“But no one really talks about it.”
Gov Gavin Gruesome was Mayor of Fecal City from 2004 to 2011.....He owns it.
The NEW Mayor ( London Breed )....Get This is trying to get her brother Napoleon
Brown an early release from Prison for for Killing ...Yes ..Killing a woman in 2000...
" San Francisco Mayor London Breed has written a letter asking for outgoing Gov. Jerry Brown’s help to free her brother, who is not eligible for parole for another 15 years in a notorious homicide case.
Back in 2000, he pushed a young mother out of a car and into Golden Gate Bridge traffic. Napoleon Brown, 46, is now serving a 44-year term in Solano State Prison for manslaughter, robbery and other crimes tied to the death of Lenties White.
Both White’s family and legal experts question Breed’s letter, which was obtained by NBC Bay Area’s Investigative Unit.
Breed wrote to the governor as part of an official application in October that while she did not think the four-decade sentence against her brother was fair, “I make no excuses for him. His decisions, his actions led him to the place he finds himself now.”
She says her brother has been through addiction, parenting and other programs in state prison. Outside, she assured, he would have “strong” family support.
“I guarantee we can secure him access to a job, to a good home, to the counselling and services he and every other addict need for the rest of their lives.”
His freedom, she says, is “what’s best for both Napoleon and society overall.”
But Sandra McNeil, the mother of the 25-year-old victim, disagrees.
“I don’t think it would be justice,” she said. “She’s the mayor, so she’s got a little power, so she thinks she can get her brother out.’’
Veteran prosecutor turned defense attorney, Chuck Smith, said the mayor’s letter raises all sorts of ethical questions.
“The timing of it is troublesome,” Smith said. “She could have written this letter six months ago, when she wasn’t mayor -- and she didn’t. The governor obviously is leaving office soon.”
In writing the governor, Breed left out that just last year, according to court records, her brother was caught with heroin in prison. As a result, he had another two years tacked onto the sentence he was already serving for manslaughter, robbery and other crimes.
Brown had a prior robbery on his record when he was originally convicted of murder and robbery and sentenced to 44 years in prison back in 2005. While the murder verdict was overturned by a judge for technical reasons, Brown ultimately agreed to plead to involuntary manslaughter. He was eventually resentenced to 42 years.
The extra time for the drug offense brings his term back to 44 years. He is eligible for parole in 2032.
McNeil says another thing Breed left out in that letter was that Breed herself tried to provide her brother with an alibi, testifying in the trial that Napoleon Brown was sleeping on their couch at midnight. That was when prosecutors said Brown robbed a Marina District restaurant and later pushed White from the getaway vehicle.
The jury heard evidence that White’s dying words implicated Napoleon Brown as her killer.
The governor’s office declined to comment, citing a policy of not discussing such pending requests.
Breed issued a statement, stressing that she was joining in her family’s request to reduce her brother’s term, given that he has already served nearly 20 years.
“I do believe that people need to face consequences when they have broken the law, but I also believe that we should allow for the rehabilitation and re-entry of people into society after they have served an amount of time that reflects the crimes committed,” she said in a statement issued Tuesday.
“Too many people, particularly young black men like my brother was when he was convicted, are not given an opportunity to become contributing members of society after they have served time in prison. I believe my brother deserves that opportunity.”
“I am not asking for my brother to be pardoned or for his conviction to be wiped away, but simply for the Governor to consider initiating the commutation of his sentence. This would only be the first step in a long process that involves a thorough investigation by the Parole Board and a decision by the California Supreme Court.”
“My family and our community is ready and willing to help support my brother, and we will take this responsibility seriously if his sentence is commuted. I believe he will better serve society, the community, his family, and his children outside of prison. Ultimately this determination is up to the Governor and the courts, but I join my family in making this request.”
But attorney Smith said he is troubled by the fact that the letter leaves out key information, like the heroin possession and Breed’s role as an alibi witness.
“If there are negative facts,’’ he said, “it is the obligation of the office holder to bring forth those negative facts and address them. Rather than just try to sweep them under the rug…. It smacks of ethics which are not exactly up to par in my opinion.”
McNeil said the clemency effort, and the mayor’s letter, is reopening old wounds.
“I thought it was done and over,” she said, “Justice was served and that was the end of it -- I never knew there was going to be another beginning of it.”

Ahiza Garcia of CNN Money reported May 18 that only two people of color owned or co-owned professional NFL teams: Shahid Khan of the Jacksonville Jaguars and Kim Pegula of the Buffalo Bills. The lack of diversity spreads through all major American sports leagues, with the NBA having the most people of color own or co-own teams (only three). The same goes for management and coaching positions as well.
James is one of a few people to call out the league and/or its owners over a "slave mentality" or something similar after NFL owners approved a national anthem policy whereas players must either stand or stay in the locker room. The policy was in direct response to NFL players protesting racial injustice and social inequality during the performance of the song.
San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman, in response to Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones stating his players must have their "toe on the line" and stand during the anthem, said Jones had an "old plantation mentality."
Solomon Jones of Philly.com wrote that "team owners sometimes think and behave like slave owners."
Per Glen Martin of California Magazine, Cal sociology professor emeritus and civil rights activist Harry Edwards said the policy, which stated that players must stand for the anthem or stay in the locker room, is representative of a "plantation mentality." Edwards noted NFL owners "are wealthy, entitled and arrogant, and they essentially view their players as property, not human beings with rights guaranteed by the Constitution. ... [NFL team] owners are acting like plantation owners, insisting that any act of ‘rebellion’ must be squelched.”
James has never been afraid to use his platform to express his feelings on the world's most important issues, as Cord Jefferson of Bleacher Report noted in a July 23 piece. Chances are this won't be the last time we see James shun the "shut-up-and-dribble" request.

Here’s a bipartisan question.
Trump has lost on the wall, obviously.
But, what if he comes back to the Dem house in January and says “not a wall, but I need 2 or 3 billion to enhance our immigration enforcement. Tracking flights, tracking down folks who have overstayed their visas, southern border tightening, etc etc”
I think that could be successful and would do more than a wall to secure against illegal immigration.

no wonder youʻre so confused about what an asset is.
Are stocks an asset? Like when you list your assets and liabilities on a financial statement, you have told us you don’t include your house as an “asset,” correct? How about your stock holdings? Say like during the last month or so...would those be an asset?
