When you think of San Francisco, you probably don’t think of a place that is politically moderate. The Bay Area has historically been a political lightning rod, known for its progressive policies and the unlivable outcomes of those policies. But what if the most ‘radical’ thing San Francisco did recently…was start agreeing with conservatives on basic realities? The city has begun to shift, and it just might have rediscovered common sense.

What if I told you California just introduced a bill that could make it a felony to expose fraud, just for posting what you find online? That would be crazy! Well, unfortunately for us that is the case in California, as lawmakers once again hide behind “immigration” and “protecting the vulnerable” to pass a much more sinister agenda.

Breaking news in California’s race for Governor as Democrat frontrunner Eric Swalwell drops out of the race after being inundated with sexual assault claims, and what does this mean for his seat in Congress? Plus, we’ve got some very important updates to cover on court rulings that we’ve discussed in the last few months, as the highest court in the land weighs in on matter directly affecting California.

Welcome to California – the place that spends hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to build bridges that go…literally nowhere, and aren’t even for people, but are for animals! What kind of crazy dimension have we stepped into?

With California’s primary election coming up fast on June 2^nd, voters are being asked to decide who should have a real shot at governing California. Yet, the field has not narrowed. Who are the worst candidates for California governor and why should we avoid them at all costs?

This month the California DMV cancelled approximately 13,000 commercial driver’s licenses following public and federal pressure over non-citizens being granted CDLs in the state. What is going on, and how should we think about it?

In recent weeks, a political firestorm erupted between California Governor Gavin Newsom and Dr. Mehmet Oz, the administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services over one key issue: hospice fraud in California.

The news cycle is a lot. Trying to keep up with what is happening, especially when what is happening is divisive or depressing, is both stressful and unsustainable. Just preaching the principled necessity of engaging in politics is not enough to practically help those who feel burdened by it. In effect, the question I want to help answer for you is not why, but how to engage in politics, and how to do so without losing your mind.

A California child predator received three life sentences…now he’s being released on parole. How did this happen? And what does this say about crime policy and leadership in California? With the primaries approaching, this case raises serious questions about accountability, deterrence, and public safety.

Governor Gavin Newsom is siding with Republicans for once and opposing the more radical wing of the Democrat Party. What magical issue could be bringing this about? Well, California is considering one of the most aggressive tax proposals in the country – a 5 percent tax on the net worth of every billionaire living in the state. Would this save California from its budget crisis, as supporters champion, or are there other implications we need to consider?

What if instead of paying taxes at the gas pump, California charged you for every mile you drive? That’s not law yet, but our state just took a major step closer to it. That step is called AB 1421, and today, we’re going to unpack what it is, what it isn’t, and why this conversation matters right now.

If you live in California, it can sometimes feel like politics is a one-sided affair. After all, there is a supermajority in our legislature! But in just the last few weeks, higher courts have stepped in and delivered major blows to some of the most aggressive policies our state government has treated as untouchable. From gun rights, to parental rights, to immigration enforcement, we are watching federal judges remind California of something it has tried so hard to forget: the Constitution still applies here.

Medical freedom is at the forefront of the political conversation today, but it isn’t just a national conversation. Here in California, decisions are being made that reshape who controls health policy, how scientific guidance is evaluated, and whether individuals retain the ability to weigh risk for themselves and their families. As the federal government steps away from global health institutions like the World Health Organization, California has chosen a different path.

California is a state known for protest. We saw mass protests break out in 2020 over the death of George Floyd, and in 2025 we watched familiar scenes break out in protest against federal immigration enforcement. Most recently, we’ve seen protests once again erupt, but this time over two very different things. When we see demonstrations like this break out, we should stop and question: what is really at stake? And what kind of injustice truly rises to the level of protest?

Fraud isn’t a theoretical problem. It’s real, it’s measurable, and it robs taxpayers of the money they work hard to earn. In recent weeks, Minnesota has become the clearest example of what happens when oversight fails, and quite frankly, no one is watching the money. Now, the federal government is signaling that Minnesota may just be the beginning, and that California could be next. After all, if this level of fraud was hiding in plain sight in Minnesota, what do you think is hiding in California?

One year ago, leaders stood in front of cameras and promised that the Palisades would be rebuilt quickly, safely, and stronger than before. They promised urgency. They promised support. But one year later, we have to ask: did they deliver on these promises? Where are the people who lost their homes today? And should we feel sure that this won’t happen again?

Governor Gavin Newsom insists he’s not anti-gun. He says he supports the Second Amendment, respects lawful gun ownership, and just wants ‘common-sense safety measures.’ But policy is best judged, not by its intentions, but by its outcomes. That brings us to Glocks, one of the most common, affordable, and widely used handguns in the world, and why California is about to make them effectively unavailable to new buyers in 2026.

A new year always brings change – and in California, it also brings a long list of new laws. In 2025, Governor Newsom signed 794 bills into law, touching nearly every aspect of daily life. And while I’d love to believe all 794 were thoughtful, effective, and necessary...that just usually is not the case in our state!

Just this week, the FBI announced a planned terrorist attack in California that it intercepted and thwarted. The suspects are in custody and facing federal charges, but the details of the plot are shocking and unsettling. This planned attack goes far deeper than a random act of violence or extremism. It shows us that ideas, beliefs, and ideologies matter.
