Earlier this year, California Gov. Gavin Newsom admitted there are areas of the state that resemble a “third world country,” but of course nobody in particular should be blamed.
Adam Housley ~ Meantime ... this is modern day train robbery. Modern day LA not far from Union Station ... a few days ago. Unfortunately it is happening every day. As soon as the train stops, thieves start opening containers. It is quite well organized. This is the main line.
Well ... that's because the people who are quite appropriately and particularly to blame are all Democrats. So, Gavin desperately wants to sweep that undeniable fact under the rug at Democrat Headquarters, don'tcha know.
In a possibly related story, Los Angeles lost a lot of residents from the summer of 2020 through the summer of 2021:
ABC7 Eyewitness News ~ L.A. is shrinking: New figures show nearly 176,000 people have left Los Angeles. What's behind the shocking exodus? Now on ABC7.

From KABC:
Los Angeles saw a significant drop in population during the first full year of the pandemic, from mid-2020 to mid-2021, according to the U.S. Census Bureau population estimates released Thursday.
L.A. lost nearly 176,000 residents, the second biggest drop among U.S. metro areas.
Ah, yessssssssss ... it's ALL Covid's fault, right? Uh ... nope.
Los Angeles was second only to New York City in the drop in residents (NYC lost 328,000 residents according to the story, and no doubt many of them can now be found in Florida).
What are the real reasons behind the L.A. exodus? Place your bets!
I Hate The Media ~ What's behind it? Gavin, Garcetti, Gascon. The Three G's.
As long as they don’t all move somewhere else and then vote for the same kind of left-wing politicians whose mess they’re fleeing.
H ~ Shocked it’s not higher.
That's true!
The Left will probably blame climate change for what’s happening.
The article says the pandemic and housing costs are the reason, but it likely runs a bit deeper than that.
Deeper? Nah. All ya have to do is explore the shallow end of the gene pool - where Democrats are spawned.
Joel Brizzée ~ Crime. Homelessness. Cost of living. Tyrannical mandates. Traffic. In that order.
m/-=EdVT=-m/ ~ Gee, it’s a real mystery. Maybe ask @ericgarcetti and @GavinNewsom for a clue.
RAY ~ Democrats. That’s why.
An “exodus” from other big cities is also happening:
The Associated Press ~ Tens of thousands of people left some of the nation’s biggest, most densely populated and costly metropolitan areas during the first full year of the pandemic, according to new data released by the U.S. Census Bureau.
