You expressed what we’ve been thinking. I know that there are more of us silently thanking you.
Not to beat a dead horse but Newsom is spending over $300 million of our tax dollars to make sure that in this one-party state no one with an opposition view will get any representation … EVER! And they scream about the end of democracy.
According to Noozhawk, no kings protest in Santa Barbara drew 13,000 participants! Judging from an aerial photo they posted I believe that number. I agree with every point in your rant, and we are surrounded by, outnumbered by the very malcontents, miscreants and vagabonds you and I loath. I felt a visceral revulsion walking State Street last week to survey the pedlets we paid for. I was saddened by a once beautiful attraction degraded to third world decay at the hands of our local leadership. But judging by the kings day turnout and judging by conversations with neighbors sadly, this is what this city wants.
As we have seen from yesterday, the parade of buffoonery continues. What a bizarre display and complete meltdown! I especially liked the interview of some fella inside of a shark balloon animal! Ya, nothing like convincing people you’re a complete ignoramus then living out your fantasy.
Yes, thousands of the local left’s faithful proclaiming their outrage. Outrage about what? Full employment, booming stock market, zero illegal immigration, world peace, what are these people talking about?
Meanwhile, our government remains closed and the Dems are trying to defund our military and other vital services. Sound familiar?
BYW, who is really funding these Hate America protests? Soros, American Communist Party, SEIU, Sierra Club! Time for a full DOJ RICO investigation into these troublemakers!
LT, looks like you were correct regarding George Soros; I’m hoping to get my check, along with my friends & neighbors by the end of this week.
KATONAH, NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report)—George Soros has been forced to declare bankruptcy after paying over seven million people to attend the No Kings protests, the billionaire confirmed on Monday.
“When I agreed to pay everyone who showed up at these things, I had no idea so many people were going to accept my offer,” Soros admitted. “But a deal’s a deal.”
I agree with your observations, so much for "writers' block!
Just to pile on a bit, here is some more beef to chew on.
Here are some findings on how average government compensation compares with private industry compensation in California.
According to a 2029-2020 study by the Hoover Institute, average total compensation for State government workers in California was about $143,000 per year and for local government workers about $131, 000 per year. In contrast, private-sector workers averaged about $71,000.
This implies that government workers averaged roughly $70,000 to $72,000 more per year, nearly double the amount of the private sector.
A 2017 analysis found that for a full career, of about 30 years in the public sector in California, the average pension, not including other benefits was about $68,673 a year in 2015 dollars. By comparison the average private sector pension, excluding other benefits was $54,326. A difference of about $14,000 a year in favor of government workers.
Other research suggests a premium for public sector workers including benefits of about 15% or more, than the private sector.
In broad terms, government employees in California appear to receive an average of $60,000 - $70,000 more in total compensation (salary plus benefits) compared to private sector workers.
The $14,000 difference in favor of government workers pensions is understated because of the more generous other retirement benefits given to government workers than private sector workers receive.
In case the liberal Democrats didn't think this one thru either.... Conservative Republicans will NEVER stop fighting, we NEVER give up, we have Jesus on our side, and we will continue to conquer your Evil! Newscum will not prevail either! Warriors of God always take down Evil and the devil will be thrown back down into the very depths Hell, of how he crawled out in California, then took the form of Newscum!!!
God Bless you for writing this!! I am so angry, trying so hard not to be, but you cannot get thru evilness. Their so corrupt, their doing it thru California schools, as my 14 yr old grandson thinks President Trump is bad, Harris would have been better even though she hasn't done anything except... Nothing, he's for abortion, the murderer who murdered Charlie Kirk, and so forth. Their being quietly taught this, in our schools!!! I truly believe Newscum is wanting to buy up California, that's why he's destroying it, so all Republicans move away, and anyone who doesn't agree with a liberal Democrat!! I believe, along with millions other people, he is the anti Christ, so he needs California to mold it into his Hell on earth, then have all his evil liberal Democratic minions recruit innocent people, so they can be controlled into taking state by state, then country by country, ... End Of Times?? I'm 68 and have seen so much of what he's done and trying to do. The taking of money and not utilizing it to where it was supposed to go, but his wife just bought him a brand new mansion a couple years ago, with what? The billions he's taken, the billions he's says is "lost"! It's lost by the purchase of his mansion! I guarantee he has illegals working on his vineyard!!! Why can't anyone touch him? Figure that one out. I'm sick to my stomach every day, seriously, on what's been going on the last 10-15 years. So much more to say, but I'm exhausted. I wish more then anything, and will continue to pray, for newscum and all liberal Democrats, who've done bad, be put behind bars! It's been a threat for years, but their still out doing evil. AOC is another, so many in Congress!! I pray Jesus comes very soon! Thank you for your so correct words!!
To avoid propaganda saturation, I turn to my hobby stuff. I tell my wife to avoid listening to the lies in order she may maintain sanity. She paints flowers and I work on restoring old electronics. It's nuts out there in the world. I've maintained my brown hair on my balding head at 80. I let other heads go gray <g>.
I watched the video and with the jamming approach it appears he's saturating the frontend of the drone's receiver. Keep in mind small control signals ride on top of larger, jamming signals and there's only so much head room till the frontend of the receiver clips the signal and loses the control signal which will get chopped up when the frontend is saturated. I worked at Raytheon from 1983 to 1997 and was a group leader for the angle encoder designs for electronic signal processing countermeasures systems. To perform real-time tracking of multiple missiles or perhaps drones, it's a complex task. Virtually instantaneous detection is required of detecting threats and then perform tracking of the multiple threats. And then you have to deal with counter-countermeasures. Raytheon systems will identify and start tracking a threat in the low microseconds. Meaning in that time it stores the missile's frequency of operation (via an IFM or Instantaneous Frequency Measurement device), the direction and the signal level via the Angle Encoder, determining missile direction and speed, etc. The system figures out what the threat is and in turn steers of the missile. It will take a lot of whizzy stuff to knock out a lot of drones. Simply saturating the frontend of the receivers in order to clip the control signals is difficult over a large area and that's why each individual drone probably needs to be handled one by one similar to countermeasure systems. When I was designing Omega VLF airborne navigation receivers (1978-83), I would run into interference problems with navy VLF receivers saturating the frontend of my nav receiver during aircraft approaches, such as the case when landing in Honolulu. I had to reduce the sensitivity. On a later design I incorporated an automatically tuned notch filter to detect and eliminate large signals at the interference operating frequency. This prevented worldwide Navy communication systems VLF interference used for submarines. The YouTube video was simplistic when the goal requires to engage a lot of the same threats which requires multiple tracking of the drones. In the military, the goal is to protect expensive military assets, including trained pilots, etc.
I've repaired a few Tek scopes, but they tend to be difficult to work on (compact designs) and the need for extender cards for troubleshooting. Back in 1978 I tried to purchase a brand new Tek 485 dual trace 350MHz bandwidth scope, but I was told the government had priority on these at the time and I'd have to wait a long time. Instead, I purchased an HP 1725A dual channel, 275MHz bandwidth scope instead. The HP had a larger screen than the Tek, so I was happy. One of my specialties at that time was transmission line design for digital computers, hence the fast scope requirement was for looking at fast rise and fall time signal edges. Tek scopes were made better than HP's, IMO. For signal sources I liked the Wavetek and HP brand. Now I'm into restoring old test equipment, early or novel TV's and a few radios from around the 1930's to 1950's. I did a lot of TV restoration back in the 1970's for several years as a hobby for myself and others. Find it still fun when I started doing the restoration work again. And find it more challenging because old electronics have aged with new problems.
Even when I was young(er) we would say among ourselves we liked Santa Barbara, but hated the politics. SB has always been a lefty hippie enclave. Stupid breeds stupid. Eventually the no kings fad will fade and then move on to something else to dress up like a cow and chant silly things. The impact of all this nonsense accomplishes nothing except to waste an entire day and make you feel like you did something. Trump doesn't care. He's working his butt off for all Americans, regardless how blinded you are with hate/ You won't, can't allow yourself see the truth because that would mean you would have to accept you're wrong.
If I'm right, and I pray I am, this sickness going on is not 50-50. It's 70-30. The Amrican people aren't totally naive, just mis-informed. 30% of the Democratic party rule the other 70%. It's evil what there doing. It's been going on since 2013, under Obama. Harry Reid went Nuclear. Here we are!. They cannot stop now. There all in. We know it, Trump knows it, like Hillary said, " if I go down, we all go down ". The most corrupt 10 years in our history. Time for a comeuppance! Get em Donald!.
Yep, keep reading your fake news!!! Our President is trying to right, all the wrong, the Democrats have done!!! Do you like staying poor, giving all you have to illegals, trying to keep your children safe from predators, from the massive amounts of drugs that have come in illegally, can you afford your rent or mortgage, groceries, bills, how about your medical insurance, the list goes on and on, not because of Trump, because the liberal Democrats have given it away to the illegals, while the American People Suffer!!!!
Sorry but that’s just b…s. Trump IS a predator….and….He’s protecting the worst predator of all time…Epstein. Blame everything on Democrats if it makes you feel better. It doesn’t change the fact that you are being lied to right now and the President and his cohorts are ripping everything you value about this country to shreds. I’m not suggesting defending Democrats. I”m saying…wake up to what your supposed hero is actually doing to the county.
Got an idea Elaine - Kamala Harris for President. Can you imagine that moron in charge? She probably couldn't screw up the country as bad as that fool Joe Biden did - nobody could, . . . but you can bet she'd come close!
They ignore facts such as the $20 billion "loan" to Argentina, the fact that the national debt is increasing (just as it has for decades--including under his previous term) and that he said of the ICE agents sent to D.C. "They can do whatever the hell they want". They really think he cares about them. Then, when they see comments such as mine, they often assume that I am a Democrat, not realizing that I don't support the Democrats either. (Again, issues such as the national debt, foreign "aid", and our eroding rights at home concern me.)
OK, I understand, you’re too deep in the maga cult that you’ve become a trump parrot. Well, maybe then you can justify why people need a $250 million ballroom and how it will benefit them. And please don’t bring up private funds we all know that anyone giving trump money has a favor coming, or they were extorted or bullied. How would you explain that to the federal workers that have been let go, to all the farmers who, due to trumps tariffs are losing their farms, along with small businesses having to close, to families that are struggling. How will this grand ballroom benefit them?
Please. Newsom is spending $300 Million just to take full control of California. California a perfect example of what democrats are made of. The state is an utter mess so who does that 300M benefit? Just the democrats so they can make all of us that much more miserable. And you better talk to the democrats because they're the ones holding the country hostage so they can give billions more to illegals. Who does that benefit? Certainly not Americans. You're going to lose on all fronts. I just don't have the time or patience to list all the things the democrats have destroyed. You already know anyway.
Why do you keep harping on illegal immigrants? Why do you keep insisting on that? Or is it the usual republican rhetoric hoping that if you repeat it enough times people will believe you? trump is inhumanely getting rid of as many minorities as possible, so what are you afraid of? Both political parties have destroyed one thing or another. But at present, the republicans are systematically getting rid of freedom and democracy.
Remember the hippy dippy what if they gave a war and no one came?
The issue is the opposition realizes the empire and the benefits to the kissers of the ring.
Tuesday the City of SB will hear the issue of State St., the idiot pedlets, the anger of the other side that does not care about the destruction of Santa Barbara. It is only about their point of view.
SCG has a carbon neutral product. Does the other side care that it means effective and cost effective electrical generation is available? Nope.
Remember when Blum, Schneider and the rest loved the electric shuttles because they did not produce air pollution? It was fine for inefficient vehicles used electricity from Ventura with what they considered pollution down yonder...... Let Ventura eat SB pollution.
The supposed swells are happy about E-V's but where is the Sales tax, and the calculations of energy use compared to gas $4.50 per gallon. Where is the tax base for their cars and tearing up the roads?
There is no crime in Santa Barbara unless the criminal elements like b-bike that does not pay fees, or the gypsy food trucks taking profit from brick and mortar, or the e-motorcycles blasting through intersections at 20+mph, or the people violating hedge height ordinances putting their neighbors in hock with fire insurance, the gangs openly operating even in neighborhoods like San Roque, or or or or or
It is time to boot a whole bunch of people, but the not so loyal (disloyal?) opposition does not want to be tag with their garbage so they say it is fine; no problem move along and the city crumbles.
You expressed what we’ve been thinking. I know that there are more of us silently thanking you.

Trump is not just MAGA — he's MEGA: Make Earth Great Again. And anyone who has trouble with that should just be flown to Mars.
And Newscum could be the first man to pick his nose on Mars!
Lol!
🤮🤮

Why did the city close Anacapa for their march to de la Guerra when they could have marched the closed State Street?
Fear of electric bikes

Curious, does your old electronics restorations include Tektronix o'scopes??

And while you’re busy obsessed with trashing Democrats, how do you explain this disgusting display from our President?

It says, this is as presidential as trump will ever be. These are the things that will be his legacy.
IMO: you are still blocked and add locked to that, same old thing it’s the Democrats, it’s the Democrats, you are not just blocked but blind.
Julia, there's a reason for that. It is the democrats. Every city and state run by liberal democrats are a mess.
