California needs to be Democrat-proofed

As wildfires consumed over 5,000 buildings in Los Angeles last week, killing 24 people, Democrats in Sacramento had far more pressing business to attend to: allocating $50 million to attack a presidential administration that hasn’t even taken office yet.

Asked if now was really the best time for a special legislative session dedicated to “Trump-proofing” California, state Sen. Scott Wiener, a San Francisco Democrat, responded, “I do think it’s important for California to stand up for our values,” later adding, “This funding agreement cements California’s readiness to serve as a bulwark against Trump’s extremist agenda.”
