Some songs come out of nowhere and stay with you. "See Your Face" is one of those for me. It's on my Whiteoak EP if you want to give it a listen. 🎸 youtube.com/playlist?list=OL…
Local yellowtail have been on fire this summer. This one's from a few weeks back, flat calm and blue water all the way out. Days like this are why I'm working toward my captain's license. 🎣
Paddle surfing is how I clear my head before I start the day... A few months back, but this one still makes me smile.
Not fair folks.
New York Democrats have declared WAR ON THE AMISH. Thanks to their unconstitutional attack on religion, they're now able to fine EACH unvaccinated Amish child $2,000 EVERY SINGLE DAY.
⠀
The $118,000 bill is one day, not the cap. Three one-room schools alone already owe that much for 59 children, at $2,000 each.
⠀
Health Commissioner Mary Bassett imposed it on December 15, 2022. She called the sum conservative because it assumed only one day out of compliance.
⠀
Dygert Road was billed $52,000 for 26 children. Pleasant View was billed $46,000 for 23.
⠀
Shady Lane was billed $20,000 for 10.
⠀
Footnote 9 of the Second Circuit opinion records the state's view. Each day an unvaccinated student attends is a fresh violation and a fresh $2,000 fine.
⠀
Another day for those 59 children is another $118,000. A 180-day year at that rate is about $21 million, and the families say they cannot pay the first bill.
⠀
Joseph Miller, Jonas Smucker, and Ezra Wengerd run the schools. The schools sit in Clymer and Heuvelton, plus the Canajoharie settlement, and take no public money.
⠀
They had a religious exemption for decades. On June 13, 2019, Democrats repealed it after measles spread through Orthodox Jewish neighborhoods in Brooklyn and Rockland County.
⠀
Governor Andrew Cuomo signed the bill. Governor Kathy Hochul left it in force.
⠀
A parent may not excuse a child for faith.
⠀
Senator James Skoufis said the exemption was made up and fake. Assemblyman Jeffrey Dinowitz called it utter garbage.
⠀
Counsel Aaron Siri told the New York Post the families can pay only if the state takes their land. Some in the community have talked of leaving the state.
⠀
The case is Miller versus McDonald. The Second Circuit ruled against them on June 30 in 2026.
⠀
A Supreme Court petition was due around September 28.
Make sure EVERYONE sees this. If WE don't stand up for these incredible men and women - WHO WILL?!?!?!

Where is the “my body my choice crowd now”? 
The real homeless crisis
The Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority is headquartered in a luxury high rise building where employees enjoy VIP amenities like a fitness center, rock climbing wall, an infrared sauna, a cold plunge and a helipad
Democrats are getting filthy rich and living a life of luxury off the necessary suffering of the homeless
Ohh speaking of salaries, I looked up how much LAHSA employees are getting paid
- Chief Executive Officer, Va Lecia Adams Kellum, $491,908
- Chief Financial Officer, Janine Trejo, $299,912
- Deputy Chief, Systems, Nathaniel VerGow, $257,196
- Chief of Staff, Rachel Johnson, $252,079
- Chief Operating Officer, Tifara Monroe, $248,367
- Deputy Chief Talent Officer, Keshia Douglas, $246,818
- Director, Risk Management, Holly Henderson, $233,315
- Deputy Chief External Relations Officer, Paul Rubenstein, $220,732
- Director, IT, Aamir Shaikh, $220,495
- Director, Contracts & Procurement, Lucy Lin, $218,795
No one with access to all these amenities and all making well over $220,000+ dollars per year is going to work to end homelessness, they’re going to work to make sure homelessness get worse and worse for job security and to make more money
CA taxes at work
HILTON: $928 Million for Solar Panels Went to Ballot Harvesting
"A hundred million a year since 2015. By 2025 that's $1 billion. The invoices for actual solar panels were $72 million. $928 million went to nonprofits doing 'environmental justice.' When you look at what that is, it's voter registration and ballot harvest. And that's what the scam is."
So…
US District Court for DC has 15 judges.
5 of 15 are foreign born.
2 of 15 have dual citizenship.
Amir Ali: Canada
Ana Reyes: Uruguay
Amit Mehta: India
Tanya Chutkan: Jamaica
Sparkle Sooknanan: Trinidad and Tobago
All appointed by Dems.
All Marxists.
Insane.

Stop scrolling. They said the factories were never coming back. Then Apple, TSMC, and Micron started writing checks, thousands of jobs came home, and after years of losses the trade deficit dropped to $744 billion. So is this the biggest economic turnaround of our lifetime, or the most dangerous illusion? The data says one thing, the headlines say another, and there's a catch nobody wants to say out loud. I put both side by side, and the last number changes everything. Watch to the end, then tell me which one you believe.
