As I have reported several times and now acknowledged by the Governor of California...Gavin and his wife are under federal investigation... what he failed to tell you... This began during the Biden Admin. Kind of a big detail.

[Flopping Aces @FloppingAces]

California just did something incredibly stupid at the worst possible time.

By openly kneecapping Spencer Pratt in the primary, the state didn’t just protect Karen Bass from a competitive November race. It handed the rest of the country fresh, undeniable proof that their election system is designed to prevent any real challenge from ever reaching the general election. And they did it right as the Supreme Court is preparing to rule on late-arriving mail-in ballots in Watson v. Republican National Committee.

That timing matters. This wasn’t some quiet, behind-the-scenes adjustment. It was a very public execution of a candidate who was gaining traction with a modern campaign and a straightforward message. Everyone watching saw it happen in real time. The ballot drops, the sudden surge of a no-name candidate, the abrupt removal of the only outsider who was making noise ... it was all too obvious to ignore.

What California just proved is that their system cannot tolerate even the possibility of a close or uncomfortable race. Not because they fear losing power overnight, but because they fear voters seeing that the machine can be pressured at all. That revelation travels. It feeds directly into the growing national understanding that what’s happening in places like Los Angeles isn’t normal governance ... it’s managed decline protected by procedural games.

They showed their hand. And they did it at the exact moment the highest court in the country is about to decide how much longer these games are going to be allowed to continue.

Welcome to Newsom California where you pay taxes for millionaire celeb that defunds law enforcement. But will take those LEO to be guarded with the same “high capacity magazines” they detest! And then are told you can’t ask about it “respectfully”! Excuse me “respectfully” you better tell me who I’m paying you to guard! And how much it costs!

Thank you @SBA_Kelly for coming to the Palisades today!

@marcuslemonis @BedBathBeyond @FoxNews As a current resident of CA I support this.
80% + of our shopping is done online now with the exception of the occasional grocery item or birthday gift. Life is less stressful and in some ways cheaper just having it all delivered.

Not a coincidence the player that Ekblad takes a cheap shot and tries to injure is Brandon Hagel

You caused this @NHLPlayerSafety

[Chef Andrew Gruel @ChefGruel]

Funny you didn’t say anything about raging inflation for 4 years. You know damn well nothing is going to change in 1 month. But more importantly, government is finally being sliced and diced, just like the people want. Heck, even California is calling people back to the office.

Memorize this. Bookmark this. Refer it to friends. Retweet it. Let the world know. The truth. The brilliance of Jeffrey Sachs. This is the score. The real deal. The bottom line. What the radical left proxy media sockpuppets never want you to hear or know. Verity. Brutal truth.

[Megyn Kelly @megynkelly]

See how it works? Murphy meets w/Zelensky prior to Zelensky’s oval mtg w/Trump/Vance, urges Z to reject the deal thereby sabotaging the agrmt. Then when Trump calls out Z’s grandstanding/disrespect at a mtg that was supposed to be celebrating the deal, Trump is a Russian agent.

Duly noted. Thx for letting us know. We’ll put you in the system. Talk soon, M’am.

[Secretary Sean Duffy @SecDuffy]

Over a decade and $16B of taxpayer dollars wasted with zero results on this rail project. If protestors want to shout at someone, they should direct their outrage at Governor Newsom and complicit Democrats who have enabled this fraud and waste for a train to nowhere. @USDOT will be investigating.

[Kevin Kiley @KevinKileyCA]

Today I joined U.S. Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy to announce an investigation into CA High-Speed Rail, which could claw back $4.3 billion in federal funds. Amusingly, a few protestors showed up in support of the boondoggle.  

The High-Speed Rail disaster is the worst public infrastructure failure in U.S. history. It is a blight on our landscape and an embarrassment to our state.   It is a symbol for the decline of modern California, showcasing political ineptitude on an epic scale.  

It exemplifies the failures of transparency and accountability, of governance and planning, of vision and leadership, of competence and common sense that have turned the greatest state in the country into the most popular state to leave.  

It represents the disregard for taxpayer dollars, for property rights, for democratic accountability, for economic reality, that have caused our beautiful state to lead the nation in all the wrong ways.  

And it highlights the small-mindedness of our politicians, who think of themselves as visionaries for plowing ahead with a 20th century project that won’t be complete until the 22nd century, at best.  

The failure of High-Speed Rail represents all that has gone wrong in modern California. And that is precisely why this is such a hopeful day; the end of this ill-fated project will serve as a new beginning.

We are turning the page in California. A coalition for common sense is ascendant.

[DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican]

Hey Mark,

Let me break this down for you. Most databases, including USA Spending, work in an "append-only" way. That means they store entire records as a whole, adding new ones over time. Their search systems (indexes) are built to find whole records or parts of records efficiently—but they aren’t designed to search for specific words inside a giant chunk of text.

Now, USA Spending is massive—about 1.5 terabytes—so if you want to find a specific word or phrase buried somewhere inside, the system struggles. It’s just not built for that kind of search.

What I did with https://t.co/jpUi2v8oVa was add a reverse index on top of as many USA Spending records as possible. This makes searching much faster. When I run it locally, it’s 40% faster than grep—and that includes all the extra work like unzipping files, handling the user interface, and managing search requests. In other words, I made it as fast and searchable as possible. As a bonus, it is all client side, so it can never get overloaded like USA Spending so frequently does.

So instead of mocking the fact that we’re "rediscovering" data, maybe ask yourself why it’s been made so hard to search for this information in the first place.
