I hate LA. NOT really, but I'm a lifelong Giants fan, what can I say. Growing up in Fresno, many of us chose either North or South. I went Bay Area all the way. Still - I've many happy experiences and memories made in LA. Today, we are all LA. We are all Senator Padilla. We are all California.

POTUS and his administration have no qualms about withdrawing from alliances, wishing to redraw borders, and planning to invade sovereign nations. Is it time for California to contemplate secession? Or a Pacific States of America?

Any members of the Administration/ federal authorities who are deliberately staging events in California have a professional duty & obligation to perform competent advance intelligence & due diligence: know who the 2 CA senators are & what they look like. Same for Reps but we have 52. Unacceptable.

More heroes we need now: Tom Joad, Abe Lincoln, Mister Roberts, Juror 8. Henry Fonda brought all to life & more. He openly supported Democrats but had a strong 50-year friendship with conservative Jimmy Stewart. Lessons for us? (And how to avoid Fail Safe.) Honoring his screen performances & civics!
