FREE AT LAST.....MAYBE - PROBABLY

by Bob Walsh

It is Monday as I tap this out on the keyboard.  If all goes well tomorrow the formerly great state of California will drop most of the Covid-19 special requirements, including the much hated and possibly unnecessary face diaper.   The God-Emperor Gavin Newsom is making a big deal of telling everyone that the state of emergency is still in effect, and his emergency powers are still valid, just so you don't forget he can hound you to death if he so chooses. 

In addition on Thursday CalOSHA is going to revisit their work-place mask requirements, presumably at the behest of the God-Emperor.  Newsom desperately wants t keep his job and will do what he can to do so.  In fact his peeps are telling me that right now he may be better off scheduling the recall election sooner rather than later, before anything has time to turn to shit.  Previously the notion had been to stall it as long as possible.  He is also making a point of telling everybody those evil Republican bastards are forcing the state to pay $215 million for this special election.  Right now the talking heads are speculating that he has slightly better than a 50/50 chance of keeping his gig.  Many of the state employee unions are considering backing his play, especially since he is throwing them buckets of cash.

Apparently this is going to be a mail-only election.  It is not yet clear if they are going to mail a ballot to every convicted felon and illegal alien in the state or just active voters.  Presumably the "everybody who has ever drawn a breath and possibly registered to vote" school seems to be winning.

I will try to keep you posted.
