California has officially signed the “Stop Nick Shirley Act” (AB 2624) into law. This bill was created only after I exposed widespread fraud in immigrant communities across America, specifically in California’s Medicaid, nonprofits and other welfare programs funded by our tax dollars.

These politicians need the fraud to continue and they sadly use immigrants to do so often. They fund nonprofits and NGOs with hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars every year for immigration services, including free healthcare and have now made “immigration support service providers” essentially a protected class in California.

For example, if I film a hospice or a “learing center” with no patients receiving millions through Medicaid and the owner gives me a paper saying I cannot publish the video, I cannot publish it. If I publish it to expose them and they claim it caused them “fear” or a third party threatens them, I face a minimum $4,000 civil fine plus the legal fees of the individual or group suing me.

This bill was created by the Attorney General’s wife and co-sponsored by CHIRLA, a nonprofit that has received over $80,000,000 in taxpayer dollars for “immigrant support services.” Do you understand how this works yet? When the fraud is exposed, they create new laws to protect the fraudsters and penalize those who expose it.

By signing this bill, the Governor and California politicians expose themselves as the corrupt politicians they are. This is not the end, the fight has just begun. More to come soon, this is far from over.

Look I’m not saying that you should be able to slap your wife but what I am saying is they didn’t do this kind of stuff back when you could.

This is the first time Guns N' Roses ever played "Patience" live, a cramped room at CBGB, October 1987, about 100 people watching.

Appetite was stalled at #65. Axl's reading the lyrics off a sheet because they'd just written it. Weeks later, everything changed.

🚨 CNN is clutching their pearls over the Secret Service doing their job.

Anderson Cooper and Kaitlan Collins spent an entire segment shocked — shocked! — that President Trump’s team used decoy planes, lowered window shades, and even a catering truck to move him after a serious Iranian threat on his life.

They watched him board one plane.
He wasn’t on it.

He was already on a different aircraft.

Their reaction?

“Is there any precedent for this kind of deception?”

Yes. It’s called protecting the President of the United States from people who want him dead.

They make it sound like the scandal is that the press got left out of the loop.

Not that Iran tried to kill the President.

Not that the threat was severe enough to force multiple plane switches.

Just that reporters didn’t get to film every second of it.

This is the same network that spent years treating every security measure around Trump as somehow illegitimate.

When the Secret Service actually does its job and keeps the President alive, CNN treats it like a cover-up.

Priorities.

[Boston Radio Watch®️ @bostonradio]

40 years ago today, August 8, 1986, Rob Reiner-directed “Stand by Me” premiered in a limited 16-city release including Boston (nationwide release on August 22).

Dang it, Mesthead made a few excellent films. This was one of them.
