And offshore oil drilling is better than ever, with these significant improvements required by the U.S. government since October 2011, which have proven effective in preventing large spills:
Sturdier wells
Improved blowout protectors
Robotic subs on every oil rig
Improved preparedness for future blowouts
Improved technology for tracking and controlling released oil
“Offshore oil drilling could begin in Southern California for the first time in decades, due to a proposal from the Trump administration to open federal waters off the entire state coastline.
“Drilling in the Pacific Ocean could begin as soon as 2027 off Southern and Central California — and in 2029 off Northern California — if President Donald Trump’s offshore plan moves forward. But many state leaders and residents are already mobilizing in opposition.
“Offshore operations supply about 15 percent of the nation’s domestic oil, according to the Department of the Interior. Federal estimates indicate the Outer Continental Shelf still holds roughly 68.8 billion barrels of undiscovered oil and 229 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.
“Environmental groups in California have been outspoken in their opposition, but the American Petroleum Institute and other leading oil and gas associations backed reviewing new Outer Continental Shelf leasing areas in a June letter.
“In 2050, as is the case today, more than half of U.S. demand is expected to be met by oil and natural gas,” they wrote. “Continuous exploration and drilling will be needed to meet these expectations.”
NOTE: New oil pumped offshore (federal jurisdiction) would likely have to be shipped to non-California refineries, since California’s Democrat Party politicians are expected to continue to block pipelines and trucks on “their land.”
Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” The Bible, Genesis 1:26-28

DEC. 12, 2025 UPDATE: Here’s the “official” vote on Prop. 50, as announced Dec. 12 by the California Secretary of State: YES 64.4%, NO 35.6%.
Are most Californians — getting dumber or more foolish or more sinful, or all three?
The latest count of California’s vote on the unfair, unjust, racist, corrupt Proposition 50 is 63.9% yes and 36.1% no.
Yet demonstrating the unreliability of “moderates” and too many registered “Republicans,” eight California counties won by Donald Trump just one year ago “flipped” by voting YES on Prop. 50 this year. Why did this happen?
First of all, the evidence is that most California voters (Democrats and independents) believed a barrage of lying ads. They therefore foolishly and illogically justified California’s biased redistricting in response to Texas’ fair redistricting. So they were energized to turn out in greater numbers than in an “average” special election.
Second, the evidence is that Republican turnout was weak, even anemic. It’s estimated that only one-third of California Republicans voted in the Prop. 50 statewide special election. Does this mean most Republicans were confused or cynical (so they didn’t vote), or were they lazy or unloving, or all of the above?
Of California’s 5.8 million registered Republicans, only an estimated 1.8 million had mailed in their ballots by Nov. 3. One year ago, more than 6 million Californians voted for the Republican presidential ticket of Donald Trump and J.D. Vance. Yet this election, only 3.2 million Californians voted NO on the unfair, corrupt Prop. 50 (as of the count on Nov. 6 @ 8:45 p.m).
Compare the unadmirable Republican voter turnout of this month to California’s 2009 statewide special election, which had 5 liberal statewide propositions on the ballot. In May 2009, it was a 28.40% low voter turnout (with conservatives surging to defeat the big-government propositions by an average of 65% voting no). Yet in the just-concluded statewide special election on the unfair, corrupt Prop. 50, the overall turnout was about 36%, with the NO side supplying just over a third of the votes.
It’s a harsh truth that if all the Californians who voted to elect Donald Trump in 2024 (they officially numbered 6,081,697) had “stayed the course” and voted no on Prop. 50 just one year later, Prop. 50, with about 5.3 million YES votes, would have been defeated by a greater number of NO votes.
Where were all the Republicans? It didn’t help that too many falsely believed that:
* President Trump is hurting the economy with his tariffs (he’s not) * Texas getting rid of race-based districts was unfair (it wasn’t) * Democrat Party media ads can be trusted (they can’t) * The unfair, lying Yes on Prop. 50 were true (see how they outspent the No side) * Their votes don’t matter due to election fraud (they forgot they can still win in CA)
What can we conclude from most California Republicans not voting this election, when wiping out Republican congressional districts was on the ballot?
From the Bible and experience, I know that selfishness is natural (newborn babies are 100% selfish) and that sacrificial and faithful love must be learned, and is therefore rare (which is why too many people are unfair and unjust in their hearts).
What’s more, I believe too many people have become “Republican” without knowing what it means. For these “barely Republican” Californians are not grounded, but are weak on history, fairness, and biblical love for neighbor.
Yes, they were likely “triggered” by certain issues into becoming a Republican. Yet their conservative ideals are not their default character, which is therefore not reliable, but “spotty,” so most “sat out” this special election. The math of Republicans not voting shows why Prop. 50 was approved, not defeated.
The rarity of love means biblical Christians and other faith-based conservatives, who believe voting is obedience to God and love for neighbor, are the most dependable voters.
May the failure to seize this special election opportunity serve as a correction to conservatives and Republicans everywhere. For be a good citizen, you must study the issues and vote right in God’s sight and encourage others to do the same. And this is obeying Jesus Christ, Who commanded His disciples to “love your neighbor as yourself.“
Can Prop. 50 and election fraud be stopped?
It’s awful that Prop. 50 passed. Yet realize that, in next year’s congressional elections, Prop. 50 won’t likely flip the U.S. House, because of red states’ mid-census redistricting.
The federal lawsuit alleges Prop. 50 violates the 14th and 15th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. The most likely chance of 5 or 6 SCOTUS judges agreeing would be the 15th Amendment’s prohibition of limiting or denying voters’ rights based on color or race.
It’s hard to reverse Prop. 50 because SCOTUS reaffirmed in 1997 that, according to Article 1, Section 1, individual states can prescribe regulations governing the Times, Places and Manner of holding elections; however, “Congress may at any time make or alter such Regulations.”
Therefore, if Congress were to approve a quick bill to eliminate Prop. 50, it could; however, such a law might also have to eliminate other states’ mid-census redistricting.
While President Trump probably CAN’T ban “all mail-in ballots,” we at SaveCalifornia.com believe he CAN stop illegal aliens from voting, and not just in California, but in all 50 states.
For it’s likely the U.S. Supreme Court would uphold a “citizens only” voting standard. More
Trump’s full statement on his 11/4/25 Truth Social post: “The Unconstitutional Redistricting Vote in California is a GIANT SCAM in that the entire process, in particular the Voting itself, is RIGGED. All “Mail-In” Ballots, where the Republicans in that State are “Shut Out,” is under very serious legal and criminal review. STAY TUNED!“
In response, the press office of California’s Big Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom tweeted a cartoon of “Baby Trump” crying outside the White House and stating, “Live look at Trump this morning, whining about California.”

Gov. Gavin Newsom and his Democrat Party legislators have no qualms about siding with invaders — those who have illegally crossed our borders.
And while their stance includes opposing border control, border security, and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the bill Newsom just signed to “ban” face masks on ICE agents violates both federal statutes and the U.S. Constitution.
“The legislation … is unconstitutional: state police cannot enforce the law against federal law enforcement officers due to the Supremacy Clause. It also unlawfully exempts the California Highway Patrol, the force that Newsom has dispatched to protect former Vice President Kamala Harris; discriminating against federal officers violates the Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause.”
What’s more, Scott Wiener’s SB 627 exempts big cities’ SWAT officers — another big legal weakness in the bill.
Ultimately, SB 627 is unenforceable and is merely fluff by Gavin Newsom telling Democrat Party activists to nominate him for president in 2028.
Q: Why is it important that ICE agents wear masks?
A: Because Leftist activists are actively trying to identify ICE agents, to dox them and threaten them and their families, to try to make them quit.
As publicity has increased over ICE arrests, “ICE officers are facing a 413% increase in assaults while carrying out arrests,” the U.S. Department of Homeland Security said.
Lyons said the reason why ICE agents are wearing masks is because California residents were threatening them and their family members.
During a major operation in Los Angeles, “ICE officers were doxed. People were out there taking photos of the names [of the agents], their faces and posting them online,” Lyons said. California residents were also making death threats against ICE agents’ family members, he said.
“I’m not going to let my officers and agents go out there and put their lives on the line and their family on the line because people don’t like what immigration enforcement is. They’re wearing those masks because we ran an operation with the Secret Service [and they made the arrest] someone was going online taking their photos, posting their families, their kids’ Instagram, their kids’ Facebook [pages] and targeting them,” he said.
Bottom line, you either side with invaders or you side with border security. Siding with invaders destroys nations; siding with border security preserves nations.
