Within minutes after the phone lines opened, people reported they could not get through, by 10 a.m., an hour after it opened, many of the 'phone lines crashed'.

The State of California is offering $500 each to illegal aliens as part of a $75 million coronavirus relief program — even as it asks federal taxpayers for help paying for its $54 billion deficit.

The governor, Gavin Newsom, announced in mid-April that the state would provide $75 million in cash assistance to the 150,000 who are selected. Philanthropic organizations and private donors pledged an additional $50 million, for another 100,000 immigrants.

Newsom, at his best, is Newsom AT HIS WORST. Continuing the liberal, insane destruction of California’s demography for Democrat power and control.

Working hard for that 2024 Democrat primary slot....

That they are also asking for a bailout .d for state workers to take a pay cut is not makes this comical.

Personally-I’d move OUT of that state, before I’d sit still for MY tax funds going to these guys! AND if I owned a business, I’d bring it out with me! PRONTO!!

Why the quotes around the first two words in the title? Quotes imply that there is doubt about their status.

They are aliens, and they are here illegally.

They are not undocumented if they are at the trough looking for money, and they are not immigrants because to be an immigrant, you must have legal status as such.

California is America at large. Vast debt and massive amounts of illegal aliens. Concentrations of wealth here and there, ruled by tech and special interest groups. Migration and massive .gov spending is the virus that destroys all.

Well, what you say might be true, but unlike Illinois, California was said to have a sizable budget surplus. It would seem the Governor can buy votes with Silicon Valley tax money before crying for help

That could very well be. I recall a report not too long ago, California had a $2 billion surplus.

Excuse my laziness, but my don’t give a damn level prevents me from actually looking it up. In my mind California has seceded from America by refusing to follow the law of the land. Giving illegals free money is evidence of that secession

Yep. I truly feel for my friends living there one of whom has a large ranch where they raise beef calf for ranches.

Filthy useless animals, looking for a lifetime government “living”. Look, the woman has already reproduced another mouth to feed. And she really looks ready to contribute to our economy—in the payments OUT column.

Do the Illegal Aliens have to actually be in California to receive the money? I mean, can they just have it sent to Mexico? (And is it okay if they’ve never even been inside the USA?)

Any wagers on what bank is going to launder it?
