Good-Bye, Zimbabwe, U.S.A.: Ben Shapiro Explains Why He’s Leaving California

More than a decade ago, I began comparing California to the kleptocratic regime of Robert Mugabe in Zimbabwe: The thievish, parasitical mentality of liberals, who view taxpayers only a source of plunder, eventually runs head-on into economic reality.

Democrat Concedes in CA-25 Special Election: Not Close Enough to Steal

  Even the amazing ability of California Democrats to manufacture votes through “ballot harvesting” were not enough to elect Christy Smith in Tuesday’s special election to fill the seat vacated by naked bisexual Katie Hill‘s resignation. Republican Mike Garcia won CA-25 by a 12% margin, 56-44, an advantage of more than 18,000 votes, and Smith […]

An admission that will cost California taxpayers $50 million: The state of California [on Thursday] agreed to settle a years-long, high-profile lawsuit that accused the state of depriving low-income students of color of their constitutional right to a basic education — by failing to teach them reading skills.
