One department of the Federal government spent $37 million last year on DEI—the Democrat version of the KKK employment policy. Professors are telling their students that the world has ended. So far, no riots. We have script readers, actors and actresses telling us we have become a dictatorship and Colbert, Fallon and Kimmel—all soon to lose their jobs—cried on the air over the democratic vote of the people.
MSNBC Tuesday night complained that Vivek is not qualified to cut government spending. Why? Because Musk is a billionaire and Vivek is not. Is that the evidence you need to admit has a mental illness crisis in Hollywood and in the media?
“Return end of year festivities to be called the Christmas Holidays once again. Trying to please every group from Jews, Muslims, to atheists, in the name of woke fairness standards is more than “one take over the line.”
Lets get rid of the notion better decisions are made by a team rather than an individual. Who ever came up with concept that “it takes a Village to be successful.” Just ask Elon Musk. This stupid concept is part of woke lore that diminishes the power and judgement of anyone not following the prescribed party line.
Please avoid trying to impose the description of Latin X in the news and social media. It so happens that most people whose ancestors came from South of the Border are proud of where they came. Just ask my two son-in-laws from Mexico and El Salvador what they think about being described as Latin X?
We need to halt the concept of the Green New Deal to be the required religion of the State. Purchasing a hybrid or even a gasoline powered car, rather than a fully electric powered model, should not be considered a modern day hate crime; especially in California.”
We need to WAKE up before the WOKE put us to sleep permanently.
Un-woke us please! By Richard Eber

As the Presidential election has mercifully concluded, can civil discourse reign supreme once again?
I am sick and tired of constantly being on my tippy toes with concern of offending woke censors. My critics on the left depict me as being part of the alleged basket of deplorables, an admirer of Hitler, and a piece of Joe Biden’s pile of garbage.
This is not who I am.
Following the election, I almost felt guilty when confronted by depressed Progressive acquaintances. My views garner less respect from them as Rodney Dangerfield received on a bad day!
These self-proclaimed woke judges have subverted freedom of speech guaranteed under our Constitution . They have imposed PC-Identity Politics standards of behavior on all of us.
Such pressure has resulted in a bad case of insomnia. I lay awake at night with these horrible nightmares. The worst one is having PETA being given authority for euthanizing the Budweiser Clydesdales to combat teen alcoholism. What might be next?
Woke Justice has to end. After Donald Trump’s historic victory, where do we start the roll back Leftist ideology contaminating our democracy?
Stop trying to pretend differences of gender between men and women don’t exist. Using pronouns to avoid description between these two distinct groups is absurd and ridiculous. And to think I once pondered “To separate the men from the boys”.
As a corollary, let only biological women compete in sports that involves the fair sex. We must also protect the civil rights of those who declare themselves to be transgender. At the same time we should stop devoting billions of dollars of government resources catering to this tiny sub-group.
Return end of year festivities to be called the Christmas Holidays once again. Trying to please every group from Jews, Muslims, to atheists, in the name of woke fairness standards is more than “one take over the line.”
Lets get rid of the notion better decisions are made by a team rather than an individual. Who ever came up with concept that “it takes a Village to be successful.” Just ask Elon Musk. This stupid concept is part of woke lore that diminishes the power and judgement of anyone not following the prescribed party line.

We need to halt the concept of the Green New Deal to be the required religion of the State. Purchasing a hybrid or even a gasoline powered car, rather than a fully electric powered model, should not be considered a modern day hate crime; especially in California.
Gavin Newsom and his environmental mafia need to realize technology currently does not exist to replace diesel powered heavy duty trucks and those vehicles designed too operate under snowy conditions.
At the same local governments who are banning gas powered appliances in new construction, have to take a step back. This means you Berkeley! Natural gas is plentiful, relatively inexpensive, and minimaly causes pollution.
As a sauté style cook, the thought of being tethered to an electric stove horrifies me. Just ponder what real chefs might think?
Utilizing Wind and solar energy use should be encouraged but not be considered a solution for the foreseeable future. Presently alternative fuels can not be produced in enough volume to take care of California’s needs for the next quarter century.
We might also be a good idea to revisit using non-polluting nuclear power once again. Anti-nukes should take a look at France who
Safely utilizes nuclear energy for the majority of their needs. Modern technology has made this energy source safe. The Tree Hugger crowd should acknowledge this and stop depicting Republicans favoring the use of nuclear power as “Climate Deniers”
Lets turn back the clock in California to return public education to emphasizing literacy. This means teaching skills in reading writing, arithmetic, and science are to be priority #1 in the schools. California has long been in the bottom 10% in the nation when it comes to test performance in these areas.
Stop promoting critical race theory and Diversity-Equity-Inclusion (DEI), and unneeded sex education. Instead of promoting such garbage, lets endeavor to bring up test scores and encourage the expansion of trade schools.
It is much more important to teach basic learning skills than employ an army of overpaid psychologists, consultants, and administrators.
In many cases they have aimed to usurp the power of parents in directing the educational process. Let’s allow families to make their own school choice decisions.
Combat anti-semitism, especially rampant on University of California campuses. This means firing administrators and teachers who spew hatred of Jews while sympathizing with Iranian backed terrorist groups.
Time to modify or end Sanctuary City policies before President Trump performs this task. Lets face it, Kamala lost the election. Times have changed in Washington D.C.
Decommissioning these havens harboring illegal aliens will be curtailed by the new administration. Failure to do so will mean Federal assistance drying up. Why not admit preserving Sanctuary City’s is a lost cause rather than fighting city hall so to speak.
With California Republican Chairwomen Jessica Patterson being forced to step down because of term limits, its time this organization put those in charge to winning elections and promoting conservative values in 2025.
A top priority for the GOP is fielding a viable candidate for Governor in 2026 that actually has a chance to overcome the Progressive monopoly in Sacramento.
As results on November 5th at the ballot box mercifully concluded the Biden-Harris Presidency, its time for Republicans to smell the coffee (or de-caffeinated) They need to assume the responsibility of un-woking our country to bring back social values that have made us the land of the free and the brave.
I Hope no woke is offended by this column or is in need of special counseling. They will need additional couch time with Trump in charge once again.
Hopefully all this does happen — hopefully, it happens with minimum of drama and name calling, and “with malice toward none.”
