You guys in Taxachusetts have it really rough. Here in LA County the sales tax is 10.5%.

The LA Health director's dictats probably do not carry the force of law, but if a business owner keeps the business open, and someone claims to have caught the virus there, the personal injury lawyers in California will skin you alive over a turning spit. Just love this place

LA County's $465,000-per-year health director has dictated that starting tomorrow we cannot have even outdoor dining at restaurants and bars. Also, we seem to have hit the arbitrary threshold for a complete lockdown, so tomorrow the LA County Supervisors will decide whether we can leave our homes for anything other than life-maintaining food supplies. I am going to try to get myself arrested.

Are they like the pols here in Mass, who simply ignore passed referendums? --ccgirl California pols steal all the money that voters are promised will go to roads or water projects. But as far as referendums, most have been hard to overturn. Except for marriage. Judges determined that we could not define marriage in the state constitution.

Re: California Dems want mail-in ballots forever. This is a classic case of the elites versus the people. similar to Prop 16, affirmative action, that was just smacked down decisively by the voters. I think mail-in ballots will go to a referendum to eliminate them, and voters will pass it.

I'm sure Sidney Powell would be happy to go on Tucker's show if he had any audience to hear her message.

since the media is keeping a tight lid on news of election fraud, how is it that more than half of Americans in the survey believe that the election was stolen? I am so puzzled about where people are getting their information these days.

A long-ago friend of mine said that when he was young he worried that there was a fixed number of every word in his head that he could use. He worried whenever he spoke that he might run out of some words some day

Jim Sunnyvale, thanks for the info on Capital Review. I signed up. Do you get anything for that? CCGirl, I'm with you.

hilarious, Dave

JMHanes, Trump knows how to adjust to circumstances. He will make great dramatic use of the strict two minute limit. Also, I hope that he insists that the moderator not interrupt him or argue with him using "alternative facts."

Porch, as far as the three "liquid-damaged" laptops Hunter brought for repair, I'm hearing that Russian prostitutes were paid to micturate on them.

Biden, the media and the debate commission running Dean Smith's four corners offense to run out the clock.

Prayers for Owen, Rocco.

Hunter is a scumbag, but to rise to the top of scumbaggery you have to have an additional element, like be a total scum bag AND be a senator

The importance of what that computer repair store owner did cannot be overstated

Thanks much Clarice. I'll read your column

On Howie Carr they are saying that Twitter is down

Clarice, or anybody, how did someone "prove" that Scully's hack claim was a lie?

Scully is more evidence, though none is needed, that Trump can do anything

full senate quorum is 51.

according to what i've read, current committee rules require at least two opposing party members to be present to vote the nomination to the floor. But that rule could be changed by a majority vote. Also, a majority of the senate could vote a discharge petition to get it to the floor. I didn't read what the quorum number is for the final vote.

Jane, according to the LATimes, they are not yet releasing a picture of Deonte. Also, if you want to know if he is short, you should know that the video of him shooting the deputies was shot with a fisheye lens, and he is actually taller than he looks in the video. One of the charges against him is association with a gang, which might be a clue as to motive. And the sheriff's department says they have already tested ballistics for the gun and matched it.

Narciso, I believe Gabriel Allon found the menorah.

At meaninginhistory, they are asking why Brennan would brief Obama on the intel that Russia said Hillary was creating a Russia-for-Trump smear. Wasn't Obama in on it too? But maybe Brennan was telling Obama, "The Russians know"
