Enemy of the Day: California

Judge says… Judge puts stop to…Judge stops Trump….Judge grants injucnction… These are the top headlines today. Every headline involves TOM and a judge.

The second set of “well isn’t that interesting” headlines involves the great state of California. Yup, right over here kids. “In the annals of ill will between California and the Trump administration, Thursday may have been a record-breaker.” SIX. TOM came after “us” six times Thursday.

“The U.S. Education Department announced early in the West Coast morning that it would challenge a major state law protecting transgender students. Two hours later came the revocation of federal waivers that had let California colleges include undocumented students in certain programs that receive federal aid.” (This is the same Dept of Ed that soon will not exist? Hmmm. Let’s wait that one out). “The afternoon brought a flurry of investigations into suspected affirmative action in California higher education By sundown, the Agriculture Department had sent Gov. Gavin Newsom a letter saying it would review its education-related funding in California in connection with transgender protections. And the Justice Department announced that the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department was under investigation for allegedly taking too long to approve applications for concealed-carry permits.”

Woof. That’s a lot of serves to volley with. Distract. Distract. Distract. Look over here. No here. No here. Because what I’m actually doing is so much worse than what you think I’m doing….
