Newsom has a serious math problem?

 MAZE

This actually happened.
2022. California Governor Gavin Newsom announces that California has the biggest state budget surplus in American history.
Newsom: "No other state in American history has ever experienced a surplus as large as this."
Gavin proposed returning some of the money to the people. With everything being so unaffordable in California, people were happy to be getting a few dollars back from the state. 
The only problem? It was all a lie.
The $97.5 billion surplus was a four year projection that Newsom's people based on faulty revenue assumptions.
In 2024 Newsom's team quietly put out a revision that said the 2022 projection of a $97.5 billion surplus was off by $165 billion.
The biggest surplus in American history was actually a massive deficit. Absolutely on par for Gavin Newsom.

How did his staff not catch an error of this size?  Did Newsom call in those responsible for the error and ask them what happened?   I have followed government spending in Texas and don't recall ever seeing an error of this magnitude.

The Gavin Newsom connected NGO that is stopping farmers from getting water in California just got awarded a $2.7 million dollar taxpayer funded grant 🚨 You can’t make this up, only $78,000 goes to their project, THEY POCKET THE REST. “The Nature Conservancy, who initially helped broker the deal to shove farmers off of their ranches and dairies in point raise, is now cashing in on the deal. They're going to be awarded, granted, $2.7 million to quote unquote help rewild point raise. And of that money, only $78,000 is going to the actual project itself. The rest is in wages for planning and indirect expenses. defenses, complete bogus.” (Receipts shown in video) - The Nature Conservancy NGO has several connections to Gavin Newsom, he has signed legislation directly requested by the NGO - Get this, Gavin Newsom appointed Sandi Matsumoto who was The Nature Conservancy Director of the California Water Program, to the California Water Commission - Gavin Newsom also appointed Liz Forsburg Pardi, who was The Nature Conservancy Policy Director, to the California Board of Forestry and Fire Protection The corruption is off the charts

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
