Nicely done. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a whole lot of skeletons in CalPERS' closet since Grayout has been in office...

Ernest, thanks for the find and posting it as a thread.

Remember, grand children, that Grampa Dave has been warning you about Cal Pers for about a year now.

When these two conservatives leave, the Cal Pers board will be dominated by either socialist Rats or Fascist Rats.

Just remember what the Socialists Rats in the Kali legislature did with their Fascist Leader, Herr Davis, to the 12 to 14 billion state surplus they inherited when Herr Davis became their head elite fascist in Kali.

Coming soon to the investors in Cal Pers, the fabulous T$rd Whirled Junk Used Electricity Bonds that will not find many buyers on Wall Street on in Chicago in the bond market.
