[I suppose there are still other issues beyond Puerto Rico and Las Vegas that need to be recognized and resolved in our own inimitable manner.  Apologies for not having an open sandbox for the last couple of days. gjr]

    I held my nose and watched a bit od Don Lemon’s show on CNN last night. I like to hear what the left is spewing sometimes. And they did not disappoint. All those elected officials in Puerto Rico saying what a good job and just the one babe mayor in the bad mood. All the criticism of Trump all the time based on the one babe mayor. Had to turn the channel. Bit it cements why CNN is called fake news. And why Americans don’t trust them.

    Facebook has been busted for grossly inflating its advertising reach. FB claims it touches 41 mil. American 18-24 year olds but census data says there are 31 mil in that age group in the US. FB further claims that they reach 60 mil. 25-34 year old Americans but census data pegs that cohort at 35 mil. Would Zuckerberg, the lefty prince of FB lie to us? So at least now we know that FB is just another cog in the vast leftwing fakenews conspiracy. 😉

    Here is something some of you might want to consider, a company that helps conservative Californians relocate. http://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-us-canada-41434644/the-firm-helping-republicans-relocate-to-red-states
    While more folks are leaving CA for Texas than from Texas to CA, recent studies suggest the money seems to be moving in the opposite direction. Those most likely to move to Texas tend to be in the lower income brackets looking for lower taxes and more employment opportunities. Those moving to CA from Texas tend to be the more affluent looking for a better quality of life.

    Robert Cross@5:53 PM Could you please provides a reference for the study showing that wealthy people are moving to CA for the quality of life from where? Texas? Why would people with money move to a state with high taxes?
    Some so-called progressives hail these trends, as forcing what they seem to see as less desirable elements — that is, working- and middle-class people — out of the state. They allege that this is balanced out by a surge of highly educated workers coming to California. Essentially, the model is that of a gated community, with a convenient servant base nearby.
    Yet, in reality, this may prove to be wishful thinking. A dive into Internal Revenue Service data shows distinctly that, while poor people are, indeed, leaving, the largest group of outmigrants tends to be middle-aged people making between $100,000 and $200,000 annually. They may not be ideal algorithm creators for Facebook, but they do constitute the solid middle ranks critical to any healthy economy.
    Indeed, since 2010, the Golden State has seen an overall net outflow of $36 billion from these migrants (and that counts only the first year of income). The biggest gainers from this exchange are where Californians are moving, to such places as Texas, Arizona and Nevada. That some California employers are joining them in the same places should be something of a two-minute warning for state officials.
