Both Newsoms: Let convicted murderers live; kill innocent pre-born babies

Thursday, March 24, 2022, 8:50 am | Randy Thomasson

Uber-liberal Democrat California Governor Gavin Newsom was such in a rush to sign more innocent babies’ death warrants, his hair got out of place.

With his “First Partner” by his side, Newsom on Tuesday, March 22 signed SB 245 to force health insurers to 100% pay to kill pre-born babies via abortion (no more co-pays).

Said Newsom: “As states across the country attempt to move us backwards by restricting fundamental reproductive rights, California continues to protect and advance reproductive freedom for all. With this legislation, we’ll help ensure equitable, affordable access to abortion services so that out-of-pocket costs don’t stand in the way of receiving care.”

So if you’re “unwanted” or an “accident” (unplanned conception by your father and mother), Newsom and “Partner” (and all the Democrat legislators who voted for it) want you to be torturously murdered. How unjust! Mr. and Mrs. Newsom (if the “First Partner” consents to this traditional title) support and make you subsidize ongoing life for convicted murderers (no capital punishment during Newsom’s reign), and at the same time the Newsoms support and force health insurers and ratepayers (you) to subsidize the inhuman torture and murder of innocent pre-born babies. They’re evilly calling wrong “right” and right “wrong.”

A two-year bill, SB 245 passed the Democrat-controlled State Senate last year, but was “held” by the State Assembly before the recall election. This year, it was rushed through the Democrat-controlled State Assembly, with an Assembly floor vote March 17, then a Senate concurrence vote March 21.

IMPORTANT NOTE: There are pregnancy support groups in California and across the nation who are there to help women through unexpected pregnancies, whether they choose to keep their baby or place him or her for adoption. Please help mothers in crisis pregnancies to find pro-life help, not pro-death harm.

For You formed my inward parts;
You covered me in my mother’s womb.
I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Marvelous are Your works,
And that my soul knows very well.
My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret,
And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.
Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed.
And in Your book they all were written,
The days fashioned for me,
When as yet there were none of them.

Psalm 139:13-16

Why are California gas prices sky-high?

Wednesday, March 9, 2022, 4:42 pm | Randy Thomasson

A picture is worth a thousand words, right? Here are the March 9, 2022 “heat maps” from GasBuddy.com. They show Democrat-run California has the highest gas prices in our nation, even higher than Hawaii, which imports all its oil. California today has $5 gas in most parts of the state.

Since January 2021, gasoline prices in all 50 U.S. states have doubled under Biden & Co. The price of a barrel of oil on January 1, 2021 was $52.20, and this morning (March 9, 2022) it was $122.84.

The Democrat Party’s war against oil lowers the supply of oil, which increases the price. It’s the Democrat agenda, nationally and internationally, that’s doubled what you pay at the pump. Remember, on his first day of occupying the White House, Biden canceled the Keystone XL pipeline to satisfy environmental wacko groups.

As for California, the Democrat Party’s multi-decade control of the California State Legislature has prevented gasoline pipelines from other states, prohibited new oil drilling, required expensive gasoline blends, and imposed the nation’s highest gas tax. So Newsom & Co. are hurting you right along with Biden & Co.

And think about this — the Democrat politicians have worked so hard to keep a stable, cheap supply of gasoline out of California, today Hawaii, which imports all their oil, is cheaper than California!

Constitutional Assembly Republican Leader James Gallagher of Yuba City says California imposes “taxes and mandates that add $1.27/gallon to the cost of gas.”

Now, if these high gasoline taxes and burdensome regulations were done away with, and new drilling and at least one interstate pipeline were permitted, California could have the lowest-cost gasoline in the nation. But to achieve this, you’re going to have to change a lot of faces in Sacramento.

See my past blogs dealing with gas supply and gas prices

“Gas prices are going up at a far more rapid rate than anybody’s seen in a long time. We had gas prices very low, and yet we had more energy jobs than we’ve ever had,” said Trump, speaking at a time when the average price of gas was $2.879 per gallon. “[T]hey will be going up by $1, $2, $3, if you look at that, and it’s bigger than a tax increase to the consumer,” he said.

The illogic of Newsom’s half-on, half-off ‘mask mandate’

Tuesday, February 8, 2022, 4:05 pm | Randy Thomasson
Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom at the January 30, 2022 Rams/49ers playoff game in Los Angeles, a “mega-event” for which Newsom & Co. “ordered” everybody to wear masks.

Please scroll down for alert

Gavin Newsom’s public shaming at the Rams/49ers play-off game, plus the peer pressure of other Democrat governors and mayors ending their “mask mandates” helped push Newsom on February 7 to announce via Twitter (see how laws being birthed through the legislative process is so old-fashioned?) that his “indoor mask mandate” will go away for many Californians on February 15 (unless you live in a Democrat-run county that wants to keep it going, or you’re a school student or employee).

So now, California “mask mandates” are going away, unless:

1. You’re a student or employee of a government school
2. You take a bus or train or plane or other “public transit”
3. You step foot in a nursing home or “other congregate living facilities”
4. You attend an indoor ‘mega-event’ with more than 1,000 people (required “vaccine verification” or a negative test; those without either, and admitting they’re unvaccinated, will be told to wear masks.
5. You live, work, or shop in a Democrat-run county, where the ruling Democrats have decided to continue their own unscientific, dehumanizing muzzling “mandate”

So far, Solano and Marin are the only San Francisco Bay Area counties dropping their own “mask mandates” (last Friday, Contra Costa County ended its “vaccine passport” edict for restaurants, bars, and gyms). And Democrat-run Sacramento County is ending its own “mandate” too. Right now, according to news reports, most other counties with their own “mask mandates” are “undecided” or “studying” what to do. Yet in Southern California, Democrat-controlled Los Angeles County is unscientifically and pridefully continuing theirs.

The good is a lot of the unscientific, lie-based, dehumanizing face-mask tyranny is going away. More good news is you can help turn back even additional “mandates” this very week. The bad is that this evil is going to continue for a lot of California adults and children. And this, for a variant that hasn’t verifiably caused anyone to die.

TAKE QUICK ACTION: Science and momentum are on our side, so seize this opportunity to exert much-needed pressure on recalcitrant politicians. Please call and email your county’s Board of Supervisors, your city council, and your local government school board to demand they “end all Covid restrictions, end the state of emergency.”

To find your city council members, search online, “(Your city) city council.” To find your local government school board members, search similarly: (Your city) school district.”

To grant us that we,
Being delivered from the hand of our enemies,
Might serve Him without fear,
In holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our life.”
John the Baptist’s father Zacharias in Luke 1:74-75
