The Legislative Analyst Office, the California legislatures nonpartisan fiscal and policy advisory [www.lao.ca.gov] stated that Newsom should consider declaring a budget emergency to tap into the state's rainy-day fund. The outlook means California could also be facing deep budget cuts by next summer, when the state's updated spending plan is due. Let’s get one thing straight. Newsom has been and will continue to be a disaster for the Golden state.

State leaders have several tools to address the problem, including the $37.8 billion the state has in reserves. The report suggested state leaders consider reducing billions for education and halting the use of funds it has earmarked but not yet spent on one-time programs including those related to the environment and transportation.

One such assemblyman, who recently took the helm of the Assembly's budget committee, said he's hoping to avoid cuts to services saying that the goal here is to avoid cuts particularly to safety net services for our most vulnerable, that is the absolute last thing that anybody wants to do.

How about we say no to frivolous spending!!!

TV cameras were rolling as the mayor's office made headlines Wednesday by giving the go-ahead to dismantle a huge RV encampment on Forest Lawn Drive, but initially said there were no plans clear any of the other hundreds of other RV encampments across Los Angeles.

"I think there are other solutions," Mayor Karen Bass told the I-Team. "The RV situation is very complicated." 

But following an I-Team report that aired Thursday night, the mayor’s spokesperson told NBC4, "I can confirm to NBC4 [I-Team] exclusively that the city is currently looking to replicate this week’s success at RV encampments in South Los Angeles, on the Westside and in the San Fernando Valley."

When pressed for specific details and timing, the spokesperson would only say the next effort would happen in "early 2024" and, "We learned a lot through [the Forest Lawn] operation and will apply best practices like resource allocation – including tow truck contracting – to ensure that we are able to move RVs out of neighborhoods where they should not be."

Sidewalk vendors in San Francisco's Mission District came together Friday to push back against a temporary ban.

The small business owners say the temporary ban on street vendors in the neighborhood is crippling them.

Several members of the city's street vendors association marched from Mission Street to San Francisco City Hall

They agree Mission Street has become violent and even deadly - because of illicit sales by illegal vendors. But the members of one group made up of vendors, who have legal permits from the city to operate say they are not the problem.

"it's kind of hard to say. It's really complicated. Because the city makes us look like criminals. We are not criminals. We are families," said street vendor Rodrigo Lopez.

 Much of the land along the Columbia Slough in North Portland is known for its long history of industrial use, and its resulting high likelihood of contamination.

“I’ve started calling this area a 'brownfield sandwich,'” said Dale Svart, who lives near the plot of land in North Portland that the city soon expects to house nearly 200 homeless people. It’s across the street from a wastewater treatment plant and borders the Columbia Slough.

Back in October, Mayor Ted Wheeler announced plans to use that land for the city’s second mass sanctioned homeless camp, also known as a Temporary Alternative Shelter Site (TASS).  

“We can’t place the most vulnerable people in our community on an already toxic site; it’s just adding to their burden … This site is not a safe site,” said Charlotte MacDonald, another neighbor.

The site was once used for boat manufacturing. About 10 years ago, the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality found toxins in the site’s soil.

Remember that SF Office of Reparations that once considered $5 million lump-sum payments to Black San Franciscans? Now the city can’t even afford the $2 million a year to run that department, and the office is gutted in Mayor Breed’s budget cuts.

Very early in 2023, it made headlines nationwide that a soon-to-be-formed SF City Hall department called the Office of Reparations was possibly considering $5 million lump-sum payments to eligible Black San Franciscans, to address historical harms to the Black community.  Right-wing media went berserk over the idea, but as the SF Board of Supervisors considered the plan, it became clear that those $5 million payments were unlikely to be part of the final legislation.

Though now amidst the city facing a more than $700 million deficit, that whole Office of Reparations found itself on the chopping block. And the Examiner reports that the Office of Reparations has lost all of its funding in Mayor Breed’s just-announced new budget cuts.

California is set to implement a new law on January 1, 2024, which mandates that stores selling children’s items must include a gender-neutral section.

This law targets retailers with at least 500 employees across their various store locations. These stores are required to display a reasonable selection of childcare items and toys in a way that does not conform to traditional gender marketing norms.

The text of the law claims that this approach allows consumers to more easily identify unjustified differences in similar products traditionally marketed to either girls or boys. It also suggests that separating these items by gender makes it harder for consumers to compare products and implies that their use by one gender is inappropriate.

“Unjustified differences in similar products that are traditionally marketed either for girls or for boys can be more easily identified by the consumer if similar items are displayed closer to one another in one, undivided area of the retail sales floor,” the text of the law says. “Keeping similar items that are traditionally marketed either for girls or for boys separated makes it more difficult for the consumer to compare the products and incorrectly implies that their use by one gender is inappropriate.”

A San Francisco home has been sold at half its original listing price, crystallizing the stark real estate climate in the city and in the U.S.

The home in the Russian Hill neighborhood sold for $9,990,000 on November 9, after being listed in October 2022 at $19,995,000. The house sat on the market for almost a year before selling at almost half the original list price in a city that is becoming emblematic of the nationwide housing slump.

Leslie Stretch, chief executive officer of software company Medallia, and his wife Heather, purchased the home for $20 million in January 2020 but listed it for sale just two years later after their youngest child went off to college, according to a 2022 report from the Sacramento Bee.

Newsweek has reached out to Nina Hatvany, the listing agent, via email for comment.

When you pull up to Mark Dahl's home in Southeast Portland, it's clear he's proud of his property. His yard, decked out in holiday decor, is meticulously maintained.

"It's a pretty area," said Dahl. "We moved here basically because of the housing affordability at the time."

But after more than three decades in his house, Dahl has regrets.

"My truck has been broken into the last two years here in the driveway," said Dahl. "We put security cameras on the house now because we don't feel safe. My wife totally does not feel safe here."

He now calls his neighborhood in Lents "a slum."

CVS is shutting down its location in San Francisco's Lower Haight neighborhood, the pharmacy chain said Wednesday.

The store at 499 Haight St. will close on Jan. 11, Amy Thibault, a spokesperson for CVS Pharmacy, told The Standard. Employees are being offered other roles at the company, and prescriptions will be transferred to the CVS at 701 Van Ness Ave., around one mile away.

The closure is part of a broader effort announced in November 2021 to reduce CVS's national retail footprint by about 900 stores as customers buy more online.

"Maintaining access to pharmacy services in the communities we serve is an important factor we consider when making store closure decisions," Thibault said in an email. "Other factors include local market dynamics, population shifts, a community’s store density, and ensuring there are other geographic access points to meet the needs of the community."

Conservatives are outraged after two people charged with burning down a Wendy's restaurant in Atlanta in the summer of 2020 were fined just $500 each.

Prosecutors said Chisom Kingston, Natalia Hanna White and John Wesley Wade set a fire that destroyed the Wendy's in June 2020 amid protests sparked by the fatal shooting of Rayshard Brooks, a 27-year-old Black man, by a police officer during an encounter outside the restaurant.

Kingston and White accepted plea deals on Thursday, just days before they were set to go on trial, WSB-TV reported. Both pleaded guilty to charges including arson in the first degree.

They will each have to pay a $500 fine, complete 150 hours of community service and serve five years of probation, according to the local station. Wade remains in federal custody.
