What cities are next?

 Are the California “sanctuary cities” of Berkeley, LA, Napa, San Francisco, San Jose, and others next?


“Operation Lone Star Ramps Up Busing Of Migrants To NYC, D.C. To Provide Relief To Border Communities”

"In addition to Washington, D.C., New York City is the ideal destination for these migrants, who can receive the abundance of city services and housing that Mayor Eric Adams has boasted about within the sanctuary city,”

Scooby why did you allow this hate post on this blog. The othering of migrants is a legacy of the hate from Trump. California is suffering from a problem of lack of workers we need more immigrants not less. Also California is not like the hellhole called Texas.

Hello 8/19/2022 9:26 AM
if I don't post conservative views, I am certain to get a complaint from just like yours.
Wouldn't you rather see all types of views in this blog?
I am mature enough to know when a comment is overtly racist.
Besides, I don't use my gut feeling to decide to publish comments and posts. If I did, this blog would be very short. 😀

Ah, if it’s a “legacy of hate” then why is there so much push back from the “lefty” cities regarding settlement of these illegal immigrants? No answer of course, other than the typical NIMBY response.

Legal merit based migration with moderate exceptions, is the only sane path forward, else we are economically pressing down our own poor but legal citizens of the USA.

Have you actually reviewed the USA Hispanic poles? They are in free fall support for the Dems. Your not fooling anyone.

Sex trafficking of young girls and fentanyl related USA deaths as a result of illegal and unconstrained southern border crossings, should be a concern to every American democrat or republican. Is this really that hard to admit? Come on.

Wow, how hypocritical it is to see employees working at LLNL stand up for illegal immigrants, call others racist, while just recently, fighting to keep BART and such, out of their prestigious backyard. Hilarious.

"fighting to keep BART and suc"

Sorry I thought you said fighting on BART. You can say what you want about keeping BART out your neighborhood but BART is is a horror show. Fighting, drugging, stealing, and brutality. I would love to have safe public transport to the city, but I will not get near BART after some of the stuff I have seen in the last few years.

Understood, I have serious concerns about BART safety too, it's just hypocritical among some on this blog to suggest that others are racist,
because they are in favor of controlled immigration over uncontrolled immigration, except when such matters involve their "sanctuary city"
or fake supporters of them.

The listing shows Alameda County as being a sanctuary county, so that should cover Livermore.
I see Berkeley and Oakland listed, being part of Alameda County does that mean they are doubly covered, sort of like the double secret probation in the movie Animal House?

On the serious side, some business folks wanted BART to come to the transportation hub of Livermore via an underground path. The cost and the amount of interruption to the area to put it in that way was a primary reason Livermore rejected that plan, they pushed for getting it put into the freeway median ala Pleasanton. That makes sense if your plan is to get people off of 580 as soon as possible to reduce the pollution and traffic. Routing into Livermore would have added congestion and pollution to the city with all of the cars stacking up getting into downtown Livermore.

And Finally, BART decided that although Livermore residents had been paying into the BART taxes for a half century, they simply didn't deserve it in any fashion. So are the directors of BART racist, pragmatic or just masters of bait and switch?

Well my plan paid off. I told my daughter not to pay off her student dept. I said worse comes to worse I can pay it but I bet you anything they care going to have debbt forgiveness soon. I was thinking 2024 but we got it 2022. Not all be a good chunk, I am going tell her not to pay off the rest until 2024 when I bet the rest gets forgiven. Hey 20k is good but I want all of it removed. I do not want to hear any people on my case. You play to win this game.

And Joe Biden's move is well played: Millions of new votes for Dimocrats at the stroke of a pen. The only upside is listening to the Rethuglicans squeal at being out-maneuvered one more time!

The reality is that if you want more debt forgiveness in the future you better vote Dem. However once they take your vote for granted you are not getting anything more.

One of the things that is examined for a security clearance is the financial background of the subject. Can the person be bought? It appears that price is 10K.

Please post citations for "FBI is arresting or raiding all sorts of people." You are just as bonkers as The left wingers are. Try to get normal.

Lots of people being arrested and raided. You have to very naive and ill informed not see that many of federal law enforcement agencies are now being used as political weapons. This of course is common place in 3rd world nations but I have never seen anything like what we are seeing in the past 6 years in the US. Also I am surprised you have not heard of all the cases listed in the citations below. You can also say what you want about the Jan 6th riot, but in light of all the left wing riots for 2 years sentences of 6 month to 1 year are appropriate for the Jan 6 people not these crazy 10 year prison sentences. Again all highly political and stuff you see in 3rd world nations, now we are seeing it in the US.

Excellent citations. Putting these nut cases away for a few years is a good start on cleaning up extremism in the US. Getting military assault weapons out of their hands would be a good next step. Go get'um FBI!

So not "lots of people," just lots of people who supported Trump in is asinine challenge to the 2020 election, and broke the law doing so.

Plutonium Shots on NIF.

Tri-Valley Cares needs to be on this if they aren't already. We need to make sure that NNSA and LLNL does not make good on promises to pursue such stupid ideas as doing Plutonium experiments on NIF. The stupidity arises from the fact that a huge population is placed at risk in the short and long term. Why do this kind of experiment in a heavily populated area? Only a moron would push that kind of imbecile area. Do it somewhere else in the god forsaken hills of Los Alamos. Why should the communities in the Bay Area be subjected to such increased risk just because the lab's NIF has failed twice and is trying the Hail Mary pass of doing an SNM experiment just to justify their existence? Those Laser EoS techniques and the people analyzing the raw data are all just BAD anyways. You know what comes next after they do the experiment. They'll figure out that they need larger samples. More risk for the local population. Stop this imbecilic pursuit. They wan...

Trump is to gut the labs.

The budget has a 20% decrease to DOE office of science, 20% cut to NIH. NASA also gets a cut. This will  have a huge negative effect on the lab. Crazy, juts crazy. He also wants to cut NEA and PBS, this may not seem like  a big deal but they get very little money and do great things.

LLNL un-diversity

Actual post from Dec. 15 from one of the streams. This is a real topic. As far as promoting women and minorities even if their qualifications are not as good as the white male scientists, I am all for it. We need diversity at the lab and if that is what it takes, so be it.  Quit your whining. Look around the lab, what do you see? White male geezers. How many African Americans do you see at the lab? Virtually none. LLNL is one of the MOST undiverse places you will see. Face it folks, LLNL is an institution of white male privilege and they don't want to give up their privileged positions. California, a state of majority Hispanics has the "crown jewel" LLNL nestled in the middle of it with very FEW Hispanics at all!
