Breaking Updates Newsom's Making CA's Homeless Problem Worse, and So Are His Sycophants Like San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria [California’s homelessness problem is worsening.]( A recent report on conditions in San Diego revealed that the homeless population remains on the rise despite promises from the Golden State’s government to address the issue. The statistics from the annual Point-in-Time census of San Diego's homeless population, conducted in January, show a significant spike in the number of unhoused North County residents. Dramatic increases occurred in San Marcos, which saw a 1,650% increase (from two to 35), Vista (from 88 to 170), Carlsbad (from 60 to 112), and Encinitas (from 73 to 123). Franklin says the greater problem is getting the large population living on the street to accept the help of a shelter. Franklin says 94% of chronically unhoused Vista residents approached to go to the shelter have declined. “Some of them we’ve asked 20 times and developed relationships with," Franklin said. "We’ve asked them if they’d come and accept a safe, warm bed here, three hot meals a day, a hot shower, clean clothes. And unfortunately, because of mental illness and addiction, the answer is we don’t want to come.” [This development comes after California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced an expansion]( to the state’s homelessness oversight over spending on the crisis. San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria, one of Newsom’s most loyal sycophants, lauded the decision in a statement released last month. “The state has a growing homelessness crisis, so I’m glad to see the Governor making greater efforts to track spending to make sure it’s yielding results. I share his concerns about haphazard and unfocused spending by various local governments on duplicative homeless programs that don’t expand bed capacity. California’s big-city mayors are on the frontlines of tackling our state’s homelessness crisis and are putting these dollars to work. We’ve used state funding to expand shelter and housing capacity to get more people connected to care and off the streets. We’re committed to doing even more with the partnership of the federal, state and county governments and the private sector.” [The homeless problem in the San Diego area has worsened]( to the point that even NBA legend Bill Walton, who recently passed away, criticized Mayor Gloria in 2022. Newsom has come under fire on several occasions for his failure to deal with the Golden State’s growing homelessness problem. Earlier this month, he became flummoxed when faced with questions about how he intends to handle the matter. It appears that under his leadership, this problem isn’t going away anytime soon.

However, according to author and health researcher Lee Euler, that doesn’t have to be the case. He explains... “There’s a reason you may be forgetting things and finding it harder to concentrate. Your brain is missing a key “memory molecule.” This molecule is the “spark” of memory. It keeps the electrical messages zipping across every single nerve in your body. The good news is, once this memory molecule is replenished, your mind can fire on all cylinders again. And what’s more amazing, Euler has uncovered a [new discovery from Korea]( that can nearly double your ability to remember words and names in as little as 21 days! After seeing the dramatic results, he feels a responsibility to spread the word about this breakthrough. So he has created a free special report available for a limited time. In this report, you’ll discover how to recharge your brain’s “memory molecule” and ease your worries about memory lapses and sluggish thinking. You’ll also see how to sweep away brain fog so your mind works like it’s years younger! All in the comfort of your own home. Like others, you could start seeing results in as little as 21 days! So if your memory is starting to slip... If you’re finding it harder to learn new things... ... the time to act is now. [Click here to get the full story]( about this memory-saving discovery. Yours for a sharper mind, Green Valley Naturals Advertisement National Park Service Walks Back Denali Flag Ban - Meanwhile, Alaskans Respond With Flags Flying Alaskans are gonna Alaska. Part of that is a strong tendency towards patriotism among most of the population; it's pretty common in summer to see pickup trucks and SUVs flying American flags on local highways and byways. [Now, the National Park Service is trying to walk that statement back:](As drivers gather in Fairbanks and Big Lake, Alaska to convoy to the entrance of Denali National Park, the National Park Service has responded to the accusation that the superintendent at Denali National Park ordered construction workers to not fly the flag in the park. “Reports that a National Park Service (NPS) official ordered the removal of an American flag from a Denali bridge construction worker’s vehicle at Denali National Park are false. [At no time did an NPS official seek to ban the American flag]( from the project site or associated vehicles. The NPS neither administers the bridge project contract, nor has the authority to enforce terms or policies related to the contract or contractors performing the work. The American flag can be seen at various locations within Denali National Park – at park facilities and campsites, on public and private vehicles, and at employee residences – and we welcome its display this Memorial Day weekend and every day.” A good time was had by all on Sunday at Denali National Park, which some Alaskans are now jokingly referring to as “Denial National Park,” after the National Park Service denied ordering construction workers to remove American flags from their vehicles as they transit the park to and from the Pretty Rocks Landslide bridge project. That's as it should be; this is how one runs a protest, cheerfully, proudly, cleanly, with no buildings set ablaze, no rocks thrown at cops, no automobiles overturned, just a lot of proud, patriotic Alaskans showing up at Denali to say, "This is our flag, we love it, and we'll fly it proudly no matter what anyone thinks." [When the convoy arrived, the park employees were embarrassed](to find the flag that normally flies from the park headquarters had somehow gone missing: Apparently the maintenance crew takes it down every night and put it up every morning. Our team leaders asked them to put the flag back up. They went to the box that it’s always in and the flag was not there. They were very embarrassed and apologetic. They said they couldn’t believe this was happening. What this affair all seems to boil down to is this: A new park superintendent from Portland, of all places, overstepped. Alaska has now shown her what's what. The National Park Service seems to have listened. A peaceful demonstration by a few dozen great Americans was all it took, and now Old Glory will be flying at Denali again.
