The Top 10 Governors that small business owners feel are doing a good job for them, at least compared to the President, Vice President, the Senate, and the House of Representatives.
Ron DeSantis, FL, (59% Approval Rating)
Glenn Youngkin, VA, 58%
Henry McMaster, SC, 54%
Gregg Abbott, TX, 52%
Brian Kemp, GA, 51%
Eric Holcomb, IN, 47%
Larry Hogan, MD, 45%
TIE -- Doug Ducey, AZ, 44% & Bill Lee, TN, 44%
Charlie Baker, MA, 40%
Based on the comments posted, several of these governors were popular, because they implemented more programs that were pro-small business and did not enact the same types of COVID mandates as Governors in many other states.

Legal Action
Law requires elected officials to have a surety bond (a sort of insurance policy) to pay out damages if citizens are harmed by their actions in office. If elected officials (in this case the prosecutors) are found to be negligent in carrying out the duties of their office, they can be immediately dismissed.
“Apparently every public servant has to sign for an indemnity bond,” said Deb Giehl. “That’s what we would go after and hold the prosecutors accountable if they don’t do their job.”

California Bill Would Punish Doctors Who Promote COVID ‘Misinformation,’ as Other States Move to Protect Doctors’ Rights to Treat Patients
California lawmakers want COVID vaccine mandates for all K-12 students and the right to “discipline” doctors who step outside public policy guidelines for treating COVID patients. But other states, including New Hampshire and Kansas, are eying legislation designed to protect physicians who prescribe drugs like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine.
Before the U.S. Supreme Court last month blocked the Biden administration’s COVID-19 vaccine mandates for large employers and allowed the mandate for healthcare workers to stand, all eyes were on the feds when it came to COVID-related policies.
But state lawmakers also have been busy drafting bills in an effort to shape COVID policies closer to home.
The California Assembly, for example, introduced over the past six months a flurry of bills designed to strengthen vaccination mandates and regulate treatment options for patients.
For example, Sen. Richard Pan (D-Sacramento) last month introduced legislation proposing COVID vaccine mandates for all K-12 students in California schools.
And this month, Assembly Member Evan Low (D-Campbell) introduced legislation (AB 2098) that, according to the Los Angeles Times, would “make it easier for the Medical Board of California to discipline doctors who promote COVID-19 misinformation by classifying it as unprofessional conduct.”
The bill defines “unprofessional conduct” as any action a physician or surgeon takes “to disseminate or promote misinformation or disinformation related to COVID-19, including false or misleading information regarding the nature and risks of the virus, its prevention and treatment; and the development, safety, and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines.”
Under the bill, disciplinary action could be brought against a physician for disseminating information that “resulted in an individual declining opportunities for COVID-19 treatment or prevention that was not justified by the individual’s medical history or condition.”
Additionally, doctors could be disciplined for “misinformation or disinformation” that is contradicted by contemporary scientific consensus to an extent where its dissemination constitutes gross negligence” by the physician.
Commenting on the criteria, Dr. Meryl Nass, an expert in epidemiology and vaccine injury and member of the Children’s Health Defense scientific advisory committee, said:
“I think this is clearly an attempt to legislate that the government of California or the Medical Board of California will define what is truth and what is misinformation, and medical providers will have to follow lockstep with that definition.
“This, of course, is the same thing as the Ministry of Truth in George Orwell’s “1984,” and if the California legislature actually votes for this bill, the intent of the action will be to enforce a one and only truth.
“Nowhere does this legislature define what is misinformation and disinformation. They do talk about contemporary scientific consensus but as we know in the last two years, the so-called scientific consensus — or the public health agency consensus — on masks, on vaccination, on boosters, etc. has flip-flopped all over the place. So we have adequate examples that the concept of “contemporary scientific consensus” is basically meaningless in this context.”
Contrary to typical board practice, under AB 2098, physicians could also be disciplined for public speech, including social media posts, unrelated to the actual treatment of patients.
Supporters of Low’s bill insist the legislation does not impinge on doctors’ freedom of speech.
“This isn’t a call for a policing of free speech,” Nick Sawyer, an emergency room doctor who founded a group called No License for Disinformation, told the LA Times. “This is a call for protecting the public against dangerous misinformation, which patients are parroting back to us in our emergency room departments every day.”
Nass disagreed:
“The result is removing options from doctors and patients. And the longer-term consequence is that doctors will become irrelevant if they are not needed to assess each individual’s personal risks and benefits from each type of medical care.
“The government and its partners in the healthcare industries can simply prescribe one-size-fits-all healthcare for everyone.”
Low’s bill, introduced as part of a larger effort by a group of Democratic state legislators to strengthen vaccination laws, set off a contentious debate over how far the state should go in pursuing COVID mandates.
Other COVID-related bills introduced in California include:
Assembly Bill 1993, authored by Buffy Wicks (D-Oakland), would requireemployees and independent contractors to be vaccinated against COVID as a condition of employment unless they have an exemption based on a medical condition, disability or religious beliefs.
Assembly Bill 1797, introduced by Akilah Weber (D-San Diego), allows California school officials to more easily check student vaccine records by expanding access to a statewide immunization database.
Senate Bill 866, introduced by Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) would let children 12 and older be vaccinated without parental consent.
Other states pursue efforts to support alternative treatments
In contrast to California, several state legislatures are moving to provide legal support for off-label prescriptions and alternative approaches supported by physicians.
In New Hampshire, legislators last month held public hearings on a bill that would allow for over-the-counter dissemination of ivermectin at pharmacies, provided certain treatment plan requirements were met.
New Hampshire HB 1022 would permit pharmacists to dispense the ivermectin by means of a standing order entered into by licensed healthcare professionals.
Sponsors of the bill argued many healthcare workers are unable to prescribe ivermectin, either because of hospital politics or outside professional pressures.
The bill has support from Dr. Paul Marik, who traveled from Virginia to testify at the public hearing.
A former professor of medicine and chief of pulmonary and critical care medicine at Eastern Virginia Medical School, Marik sued the hospital he worked for after it banned physicians from prescribing ivermectin for COVID patients.
Marik resigned late last year in protest of the ban.
During his testimony in New Hampshire, Marik described ivermectin as “cheap, exceedingly safe and exceedingly effective.”
“If ivermectin had been promoted at the beginning of this pandemic, we would not be sitting here today,” Marik said.
Kansas lawmakers last month advanced a bill supporting the prescribing of ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. The model legislation, also introduced in Tennessee, would require pharmacists to fill prescriptions for the off-label use of ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine.
In direct contrast to the California legislation, the Kansas bill also would mandate that doctors not be subject to disciplinary action for any “recommendation, prescription, use or opinion … related to a treatment for COVID-19, including a treatment that is not recommended or regulated by the licensing board,” Kansas Department of Health and Environment or the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
“Such actions,” the bill states, “could not be considered unprofessional conduct.”
Kansas lawmaker Sen. Mark Steffen (R-Hutchinson) supports the bill. Steffen, an anesthesiologist, said he’s under investigation by the University of Kansas Health System with which he is affiliated for prescribing ivermectin to COVID patients.
Dr. Festus Krebs III, a physician representing the Catholic Medical Association of Kansas City, also spoke in favor of the bill:
“With ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, we now have 76 ivermectin COVID-19 controlled studies which show 66 percent overall improvement and 57 percent decreased mortality.”
Meanwhile, in Florida, legislation that would extend protection for hospitals against patient lawsuits over COVID care sits on the desk of Gov. Ron DeSantis, awaiting signature or a veto.
And in New York, the state’s comptroller — citing the investment of the state’s public pension plan in Spotify — sent a letter to the company asking it to increase its screening of “misinformation” on their platform.
Talking about misinformation, the headlines and articles from the Monterey Herald
COVID-19 deaths continue to rise as case count drops in Monterey County
Monterey County has reported 30 deaths attributed to COVID-19 this month (not counting one death the health department removed last week, citing data cleaning), including one on Wednesday and eight on Tuesday. In all, the county says 697 Monterey County residents have died from COVID-19. (from or with???)
Monterey County hospitals make new COVID-19 vaccine available to immunocompromised
The federal government is overseeing the allocation and distribution process to help prevent COVID-19 infection in people who are seriously immunocompromised or who have had strong adverse reactions to COVID-19 vaccines.
Apparently these newspaper reporters and editors have NEVER heard of DOCTORS who are saving peoples lives using the importance of Vitamin D3, zinc, quercetin, Vitamin C, magnesium and the IMASK, IMATH and other EARLY TREATMENT OPTIONS.
Out of the COVID crisis, but California is still in a state of emergency
Of course, they do not discuss that Gavin Newsom (and his fellow graduate, Justin Trudeau, are both grads of Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum’s Global Young Leaders program) here to create emergencies and incite peaceful protesters in order to hold onto and expand their powers to control citizens, so that by 2030, PEOPLE WILL OWN NOTHING AND BE HAPPY…
Klaus even bragged about it…
According to Schwab, more than half of the cabinets in Canada, Argentina, and France are WEF Young Global Leaders alumni. Vladimir Putin and GAVIN NEWSOM, Justin Trudeau, too. WEF/Davos/Gates against the people.
COVID-19 cases in Monterey County continue to drop as omicron surge wanes
The COVID-19 case rate and test positivity rate in Monterey County have continued to drop this week along with hospitalizations as the omicron surge wanes while multiple new deaths have been reported.
At California, Ukraine, USA, the world in this fateful hour,
I place all Heaven with its power,
And the sun with its brightness,
And the snow with its whiteness,
And the fire with all the strength it hath,
And the lightning with its rapid wrath,
And the winds with their swiftness
along their path,
And the sea with its deepness,
And the rocks with their steepness,
And the earth with its starkness:
All these I place
By God's almighty help and grace
Between myself and the
powers of darkness!
California’s new (same old same old) plan for GETTING PEOPLE TO MOVE AWAY FROM THE STATE DUE TO THEIR RECKLESS, ILLEGAL AND LETHAL RESPONSE TO COVID-19
State’s top health official unveils a strategy for living with the virus
LISA KRIEGER … maybe she should do more bird watching and stop writing propaganda for Big Pharma, Gavin Newsom and Klaus Schwab… AND/OR SPEAK TO REAL DOCTORS WHO ARE SAVING PEOPLE’S LIVES… WITH EARLY TREATMENT PROTOCOLS …
First lie:
COVID-19 will be with us for a long time to come.
(THIS could have ended a long time ago IF PEOPLE WERE GIVEN EARLY TREATMENT PROTOCOLS THAT WOULD HAVE SAVED THEIR LIVES INSTEAD OF BEING TOLD TO GO HOME AND COME BACK TO THE HOSPITAL WHEN YOU CANNOT BREATHE AND THEN WERE GIVEN REMDESIVIR AND PUT ON A VENTILATOR AND DIED…
MORE LIES:
the state’s top officials unveiled a strategy to track, trace and tame the stealthy virus as California moves from a “pandemic” to “endemic” phase, charting a more purposeful path as we learn to live with the pathogen.
“We aren’t out of the woods,” said Dr. Mark Ghaly, California’s secretary of Health and Human Services, at a press briefing. “We’re just more familiar with the woods and don’t need to live fully afraid of what’s behind the next tree.”
The state’s plan promises more reliable supplies of essential tools so California is less dependent on unstable global supply chains. It will stockpile thousands of ventilators, 75 million masks and 30 million over-the-counter tests.
In a cavernous storage warehouse stacked with boxes of masks in San Bernardino County, Governor Gavin Newsom said preparation is well underway.
The state will continue to promote vaccines, Ghaly said. But the focus will shift to children who have not yet gotten two doses and the elderly, disabled and immunocompromised who have not yet gotten all three doses.
It also aims to improve surveillance through expanded testing and sequencing, he said. For instance, if wastewater reveals a jump in levels of virus or contains a new variant, the state will “flood the zone” with tests and vaccines, he said.
The state will continue to buy and distribute tests until the private sector takes over, he said.
December’s omicron surge showed the state’s test processing infrastructure is still ill-prepared for a sudden spike in cases, because it takes time to hire and train staff. In response, the company SummerBio, the state’s highest volume PCR test provider, is opening a new, automated lab in Menlo Park that relies on robotics. Unlike people, robots can go dormant when viral levels are low but quickly scale up when there’s a surge. The lab, which processes tests from San Jose Unified School District and others, is doubling its capacity.
The state’s updated approach won’t eliminate the COVID-19 virus, say experts. “Endemic” doesn’t mean that the virus is completely and utterly gone. Rather, it means we’ll reach a kind of equilibrium, where Californians and the virus co-exist in a milder and more benign way.
there are other things that this new plan — called SMARTER, an acronym for the words “shots, masks, awareness, readiness, testing, education and Rx,” for treatments — doesn’t change.
Dumb and DUMBER
from Justin Hart:
California Governor Newsom declared a new phase as the virus goes endemic. His SMARTER plan is an acronym which begins with “Shots” and “Masks” and we don’t need to go further to explain how much we hate this plan. Essentially, it allows him to wind down pandemic responses in his official capacity but basically keep all of the measure in place all the time and any time. It’s a disaster.
How about DUMBER
Don’t LIE, censor and do all of the useless things that you have been doing that have NOT worked AND listen to DOCTORS (INCLUDING AMERICA’S FRONTLINE DOCTORS, DOCTOR ZELENKO’S PROTOCOLS FOR EARLY TREATMENTS THAT SAVE PEOPLE’S LIVES)…
U are useless Gavin… AND THE NARRATIVE YOU ARE SPOUTING IS CRASHING TO THE GROUND…
Masks do not work (many studies have proven this) plus they are harming children.
The Bangladesh mask study written by scientists from Stanford and Yale is now published in Science!!!
They never mentioned purple cloth masks made no difference whatsoever. It had ZERO effect. ZERO.
This isn’t science folks. This is politics driving the narrative and it couldn’t be any more clear than this paper. It is Exhibit A on how to fool other scientists and the public by hiding the data.
Masks Don’t Work
Steve Kirsch
Beware of Gruesome and haul his BUTT Out of Office NOW
Eat healthy foods and take supplements (Vitamin D, zinc, via DOCTORS WHO SAVE LIVES) AND END ALL OF THE USELESS MANDATES
RECALL GRUESOME… VIA LAWSUITS
Trucking in the USA
If you want to support The People’s Convoy from California to Washington, DC, offer them Visa gift cards. This way, no one’s bank account can be affected.
All of what is said below about Justin Trudeau can be said about Gavin Newsom (and President Joe Biden)…
Justin Trudeau Destroyed Canada to Extend Policies That Have Already Failed
Yet another entry in pointless discrimination and division due to COVID policy
Ian Miller
Justin Trudeau’s inexcusable, dangerous, divisive rhetoric has been in defense of policies that have provably failed to accomplish anything in his own country, no matter where you look.
His determination to continue these policies, well after it’s been conclusively determined that there is no benefit and obvious demonstrable harms, is utterly bewildering.
There is no conceivable excuse for continuing these discriminatory policies; vaccinated people can easily get and spread COVID, mask mandates have been completely useless against the spread of a highly infectious respiratory virus, just as we always knew they would be. Vaccine passports have proven ineffective, everywhere on earth.
There is also no scientific data or evidence to suggest that forcing vaccine mandates on truckers, many of whom are already vaccinated or have likely contracted COVID, will accomplish anything valuable whatsoever.
Refusing to accept reality has been a hallmark of COVID policy throughout the pandemic, and Trudeau’s dedication to a policy with no clear societal benefit and massive harms is the latest example of a politician committing to nonsensical, disproven measures to avoid admitting their own failure and maintain an illusion of control.
Trudeau could easily acknowledge the overwhelming evidence that the policies and mandates are unnecessary, but instead he’s inflamed tensions and increased divisions over interventions that are completely useless. His only accomplishment has been to turn his country into a disturbing punchline — yet another bookmark for historians to refer back to in the years to come to illustrate the dangerous effects of government overreach during COVID.
Lordy, Lordy, Kalifornia sucks!
