17 Things That Require More Scrutiny Than Voting for Governor in California
California elections are so secure… you need more proof to buy a beer than to vote for governor.
Even the Oscars demand you’re a vetted Academy member who actually watched the films—or your ballot is rejected.
But voting for Governor in California?
No ID.
No verification.
No questions.
Drop it at 2 a.m. — they’ll take it.
Meanwhile, the state requires:
Full background checks to buy a gun
Real ID + pat-down to board a plane
GO ID and state record just for a fishing license
Vaccines, references, and deposit to board your dog
Photo ID for lottery tickets, Sudafed, cigarettes, hotels…
Make it make sense
@DrewThomasAllen
If you think the guy on the left should have gone to jail and that the guy on the right should be walking free, you either have no regard for the facts or just have a deep-seeded hatred of white people.
@TheFive@JessicaTarlov Jessica Tarlov just said if we win this “interaction” with Iran, and they will no longer try and kill us, she will not say Thank you for her daughter’s safety!
She IS ANTI AMERICAN!
@BernieSanders Does that mean you are giving up your THREE HOMES, will start flying commercial bc only rich can take private planes, you will give up your MILLIONS of $$ because the majority don’t even have thousands $ leave alone millions?
Thank you, Bernie, I believe I like YOUR sacrifices!
@GioBruno1600@RepJasmine you’re as abused and victimized as this creature! You two are ignored and disrespected because of YOUR OWN ACTIONS! You both have had lives MILLIONS of us will never imagine, leave alone experience!
You don’t DESERVE anything, anymore than the rest of us!
@TrumpsHurricane We can just restart bigotry again towards ALL BLACK people that believe the deserve preferential treatment, “because we black”. We will start with @RepJasmine that believes knives cannot kill people and continue through y’all!
Hey Jasmine…
Black pilot here.
I think you missed the plot.
Then again, that’s becoming a pattern.
I graduated from West Point.
I went through Army flight school.
I learned to fly the AH-64 Apache.
I deployed to combat and flew 55 combat missions over Baghdad.
Nobody handed me a cockpit because of my skin color.
Nobody lowered the standards for me.
Nobody looked at me and said, “Let’s check a diversity box.”
That’s what people like you don’t seem to understand.
Suggesting that Black pilots, Black engineers, Black doctors, or Black leaders need special preferences to succeed is not empowering, it’s insulting.
I didn’t want a different standard.
I wanted the same standard.
And when you’re flying into combat, the American people don’t care what race the pilot is.
They care whether the pilot is qualified.
Merit isn’t racist.
Excellence isn’t discriminatory.
And reducing every achievement to skin color says far more about your worldview than it does about mine.
THUNE ON DEFUNDING THE TALIBAN: “I HAVE NOT SEEN IT.”
LindellTV’s @Alisonintheknow asked @LeaderJohnThune why the Senate has yet to act on @RepTimBurchett's bill to stop U.S. taxpayer dollars from reaching the Taliban - despite the House passing it nearly a year ago.
Meanwhile, every week of delay means another estimated $40 million flows into Afghanistan.
When asked when the Senate would finally vote on the bill, Thune responded:
“I don’t know when. We don’t have that currently on the schedule here... I have not seen it... that’s something that we'd consider putting on the floor at this point.”
Eleven months later, the bill still hasn’t received a Senate vote.
The House passed it. The Senate hasn’t acted.
How many more months - and how many more millions - will pass before this gets a vote?
Pass the bill. Stop the money flow. Now.
