Wednesday Oct 19, 2022
Wednesday Oct 19, 2022
Prop. 31 asks California voters whether we should ban Flavored Tobacco.
But we are not voting up or down on this issue. Instead, we are voting on a 2020 Referendum that bans some FLAVORED TOBACCO products.
Here is what your Yes or No vote means.
A Yes Vote means you support that law. Yes means you DO NOT want flavored tobacco sold in California.
NO means you don’t like the law. Vote No if you want to be able to buy flavored tobacco cigarettes or other flavored tobacco products.

Jan. 6 Congressional Committee Subpoenas Former President
Friday Oct 14, 2022
Friday Oct 14, 2022
Here are my Highlights of the final January 6 Committee's Investigation into the Attack on the U.S. Capitol:
- Unanimous Committee Vote to issue a Congressional Subpoena to Former President Trump to answer questions and share documents regarding his involvement in planning the attack on the Capitol.
- Video of Speaker Nancy Pelosi calling on the National Guard, asking the Governor of Maryland and Virginia to help.
- Trump secretly ordered U.S. Troops out of Afghanistan.
- The F.B.I. and the Secret Service knew there would be an armed attack on the Capitol and failed to share the information.
Speaker Pelosi threatened to Punch President Trump in the face if he showed up at the Capitol.
I sourced some of the material in the podcast episode from Jamie Dupree; he is the author of the newsletter called "Regular Order." He is a veteran Capitol Reporter and a good friend. I highly recommend you subscribe to his newsletter.

REDISTRICTING OUR VOTING RIGHTS AWAY - WHY WE NEED TO WATCH THE SUPREME COURT.
It's happening right now in States across the country. Republican legislatures use redistricting, also known as Gerrymandering, to make it more difficult for Democratic or Moderate candidates to win.
On Tuesday, the U.S. Supreme Court heard a case from Alabama that is another effort to dismantle the Voting Rights Act. If the court rules with Alabama, other States will follow suit. And make it more difficult to hold free and fair elections in this country.
For more on this story, please read my post.

I have included a clip from Tuesday's Supreme Court Hearing at the end of this podcast. In that clip, our newest Justice shines.
