Cutting the Grass

So now we know precisely what Californians mean when they talk about needing illegal immigrants to cut their grass.

And, as that particular job is done by trafficked illegal immigrant children as slave labor, and as Californians really, really need their grass cut, they are not only right that Americans won't do that work for the wages offered, but they seem willing to go to war for their right to cheap (but high quality, like all California produce) cannabis. No wonder Mayor Bass and Governor Newsom are so upset. ICE is interfering with the profits of one of their most avid donors, one for whom the governor has done great favors in exchange for maximum campaign contributions. Will California secede over their "right" to have their grass cut by illegal immigrant child slave labor? I wouldn't be surprised. After all, Democrats were willing to go to war to preserve their right to have their cotton picked by slave labor, and that was a less profitable and sought-after commodity.

As a bonus, we get to find out where a few of those Biden-trafficked children wound up. I wonder if he had an arrangement with Newsom to provide that child slave labor to his big donor.

If California were to secede, the state may then need a new flag. The California State flag presents a bear, supposedly reminiscent of the Bear Flag Revolt of 1846, during which Americans (immigrants) in California (then belonging to Mexico) revolted, took control of the state, and set up the Republic of California, which was exceedingly short-lived. So the state flag is a representation of empire building by Americans who stole the State from Mexico. Perhaps California, in the event of secession, would consider changing its state flag to something less reflective of manifest destiny. I would suggest something quasi-Canadian, with modification, e.g., a flag with a marijuana leaf, rather than a maple leaf.
