Never forget that the same liberals who tell you we should eliminate the electoral college and determine the president by the popular vote, have passed a law to try to block Donald Trump from receiving any of the popular vote in California.-Mike B.

Here are some of the things we learned on 9/11 that we've forgotten. Multiculturalism is crap. There are better cultures, bad cultures, and even worse cultures. Ours is better not because we're better people, but because we've inherited better ideas like individual freedom and equality before the law.-Andrew Klaven

California - The New Rustbelt?
Back at the turn of the century, around 2001, my new job took me back to Ohio for an nationwide company meeting. We met in Akron. The hotel we were staying at provided a complimentary newspaper. I remember seeing for the first time, page after page of near microscopic type, listing all the delinquent tax bills of individuals and businesses, and statements that John Doe was no longer responsible for the debt of Jane Doe, etc.
On the way from the hotel to the meeting site, we'd pass by many closed and boarded up buildings on the main street of town. The Rust Belt, I thought. Being from California, I gave it little more thought than to feel sorry for the residents.
Fast forward two decades. You'll never guess what I've been seeing on the pages of my Dead Tree Newspaper. That's right! Today, there were two and a half pages full of near microscopic type, listing delinquent tax payments. And it wasn't the first time. Just like Akron, 2001.
The next time I hear Gavin Newsom or some other California Democrat crowing about how wonderful the California economy is, I've got a list two and a half pages long, microscopic type, who people who might want to disagree with them.

Corn Pop Joe
Joe Biden never made it to a Wheaties box, because of the asthma that kept him out of Viet Nam, but not life guarding or college sports. He has related though, an incident where he fought off a serial gang offender. At least, I think that's what he said!
Cup of Joe for a Joe
Green Beans Coffee has a program, Cup of Joe for a Joe that I like to contribute to now and then. Here's a sample of some of the responses I get from the troops:
Thank you so much! Much love and respect to you!

Thank you for the cup of coffee, I really appreciate it. It’s nice to know people back home keep us in their thoughts.
Service member serving in BPC Mall, Qatar
The link is here: GreenBeansCoffeeCompany if you want to give a cup or three. I don't know about you, but the cost of a cup of coffee to someone far away from home serving their country is a small price to pay. And the rewards are worth it to me! Nobody is paying me to say this, because it makes you feel good! It's $2.50/ cup. You can write a short message, as I usually do, or not. You can be anonymous if you wish or you can even post your email addy if you are open to corresponding.
C'mon! You've got $2.50 in the couch cushions! Give it a try! You'll be glad you did!

The Trouble With Tribble
A former top administrator of FEMA was arrested on Tuesday in a major federal corruption investigation https://t.co/yu1eY9s9gn [We’ve deleted an earlier tweet to this story that lacked clarity and contained a grammatical error.]— NYT National News (@NYTNational) September 12, 2019
We have heard scornfully that she was Trump's FEMA employee. That is true, however, the former FEMA Official arrested was Ahsha Tribble, hired by FEMA in 2015, during the Obama administration.
"She has traveled with President Obama and Vice President Biden to disaster areas to provide technical support on Federal response activities."
Some of it must have rubbed off!
