BREAKING NEWS - NEWSOM WINS ROUND #1 IN THE CALIFORNIA COURT SYSTEM
In a sharp rebuke, the California Supreme Court today dismissed a Republican push to delay Governor Gavin Newsom’s plan to redraw the state’s congressional districts. The court ruled that four Southern California GOP legislators—State Senators Tony Strickland, Suzette Martinez Valladares, and Assemblymembers Tri Ta and Kate Sanchez—failed to get the court to even consider their case. They had filed an emergency writ which the court could have heard, or acted upon. They chose not to do either. The Republicans argued Democrats were flouting a 30-day public review rule for new bills, demanding a delay. Clearly the justices were not swayed.
It doesn’t take long for action on these emergency writs. I only just gave you a full run down of this legal action this morning [ [link removed] ]!
Below is my analysis of what this decision means. Under our new model, free subscribers still get breaking news, but you need to subscribe to get the analysis on breaking news. Subscribing will not break the bank, as we underpriced nearly 200% below what Substack recommended. It’s $7 a month or $70 a year. Except between now and 9/2, it’s even less. $5 a month or $50 a year — and that introductory rate is permanent for people who take advantage of it. Sure, support my endeavor to bring you California political news and analysis and some honest opinions (no one controls me or what I write and say). Or do it because with our publishing schedule, which has been maintained since April, a subscription means you are paying less than seven cents an item!
Reminder, if you are will the media, I will upgrade you for free. Drop me a message.
