1973 - Watergate figure H.R. "Bob" Haldeman, a former CalArts board member, resigns from Nixon White House [link]
Haldeman


California Governor Jerry BrownCalifornia Governor Jerry Brown has vetoed three bills, including one authored by Scott Wilk, R-Santa Clarita, and signed another 28 into law.

Notwithstanding bipartisan support from state senators, Wilk’s legislation, which would have doubled the terms for bond oversight committee members, was considered by the governor to be a statewide answer to a local problem.

While Brown has a history of using his gubernatorial veto powers against particular Senate and Assembly bills, in 2015-16 the governor utilized the power on only 15 percent of bills passed by the legislative bodies.

  1. Great ?. Every time this idiot signs a bill it usually means more taxes for Californian’s. This bafoon’s term can’t be over soon enough!!! Idiot!!!

    • Makes me want to vomit. But, I doubt the voters in California will get rid of him. California has some of the worst voters. Legalize pot, get out of jail sooner, keep the death penalty, and please tax us more voters.

    • KJ Slo KJ Slo says:

      He’s definitely a buffoon. He’s chasing out tax payers and bankrupting CALIFORNIA.

    • Kimberly Jellings Shaughnessy Ditto! Voters are lazy and don’t look beyond the (D) or (R) beside a politicians name believing all the lies they spew. All I know is many Dems & Republicans pushed the Cap & Trade deal through… My vote is going to Travis Allen who is currently fighting for the people to repeal Brown’s ? gas tax. Unfortunately he, more than likely, won’t win since he’s not rich and bought & paid for by the special interests. Our political system is broken… it’s corrupt!! I can only hope the people of California will wake up do their research before voting for the next Governor of Cali and send a message to Sacramento!! God help us if de Leon, Garcetti or Newson get into office!!! UUGGGG!!!! My family & I will be looking for a new state to move to!!!!

    • Stacie Orr Stacie Orr says:

      Such a TOOL!!! Can’t stand this guy much longer…

    • My husband won’t even visit San Francisco because of Newsom and if he becomes a governor I’m pretty sure my husband would ask for a job transfer and put our house on the market ASAP. Our government is the worst. For the life of me, I have no idea why people wanted to get rid of the electoral college voting system after Trump won. Who in their right mind wants California to pick a president…our laws are ridiculous and we are soooooooo in debt!

    • Rudy Ten Rudy Ten says:

      i love this guy. XOXO

  2. Lyn O Lyn O'Kane says:

    Can’t be gone soon enough

  3. Why do we allow him to continue to do this to us there’s got to be a way to throw him out of office

  4. Any bill by Scott Will is probably a disaster for CA and lobbyists are crying

    • Dave warburton says:

      Gov. Brown is doing an excellent job and I will be sorry to see his term end! I hope we get a new governor then who is a bit more progressive, though.

  5. Rudy Ten Rudy Ten says:

    i love liberals. XOXO

  6. Carl James Carl James says:

    Now I see what a turd with hair looks like.
