Republican candidate for California governor Sarah Stephens wants to “Make America Gold Again.” Her campaign website states that she will “bring the PROSPERITY back to California on EVERY LEVEL!

The weather was pristine on Sunday as I walked down Jefferson Street towards Tom McCall Water Front Park in downtown Portland. The sun was out and it couldn’t have been more than 75 degrees.

A Monterey County nonprofit is calling off an event where people do unpaid labor in a field to somehow commemorate Juneteenth, the newly-recognized Federal Holiday celebrating the emancipation of slaves at the end of the Civil War.
