California, a state whose very name used to conger up images of freedom, has passed a new law which effectively criminalizes investigative journalism. At least investigative journalism that could in any way reflect poorly on Democrats and their various propaganda arms. The “Stop Nick Shirley Act” officially takes effect on Oct. 1, 2027, after being passed by the Senate on August 18 and the state Assembly a day later. It was then sent to Gov. Gavin Newsom’s desk, and The Slick One, Hand Dancer, signed it into law a few days later.

AB 2624, the preposterously anti-American and seemingly unconstitutional law, was introduced by Assemblywoman Mia Bonta, who — get this — is married to California’s far-left Attorney General, Rob Bonta. Can you say, “conflict of interest?” “Nepotism?” This openly tyrannical law erases freedom of the press from the confines of California, at least partially repealing the First Amendment — and seems more in keeping with a China, North Korea, or Iran.
Which is ironic. Just two days earlier, Newsom was braying about Trump shutting down ‘the free press.’
The law is designed so that NGOs who receive money from government immigrant services don’t have to disclose where that money came from, or what they have done to “deserve” it. It ostensibly safeguards “immigration support service providers” from harassment, though its real intent is to protect laughably fraudulent illegal alien and undocumented immigrant businesses from scrutiny … and Democrats from having their kickbacks and other “shenanigans” discovered. They don’t want their “Learing Centers” disturbed, because if they give them millions their votes are assured.
So, Nick Shirley’s videos can be forced offline. And citizens and journalists alike can be dragged into court, financially ruined, and even jailed if they have the utter temerity to try to bring transparency to government affairs and accountability to those “public servants” who spend taxpayer’s money like drunken sailors on shore leave after a year at sea.
This legislation would have effectively criminalized the investigations undertaken by young citizen journalist Nick Shirley, inquiries that exposed the massive fraud schemes rampant across Minnesota and California.

Democrats incessantly blather on about “saving our democracy,” yet it is obvious to any sentient being that they detest democracy, this republic, freedom– and hate anyone who disagrees with them with the white-hot intensity of a thousand suns, tolerance and inclusion be damned.
The founders knew that a free press was essential to a free republic. Unfortunately, we don’t have one now, and they would be heartbroken. Incredibly, various mainstream media outlets are either ignoring the passage of this act or attempting to make it sound reasonable — or other than what it is, an all-out assault on liberty, their political opponents, and sanity. One press account went so far as to post an AI-generated meme depicting Shirley as a creepy man attempting to break into daycares.
This could not be further from the truth. Shirley believed that these daycare centers he was investigating contained no children … hence the investigation. And he was right. He is trying to expose mind-boggling levels of fraud, abuse of taxpayer dollars, political cronyism, and worse. How could he be the bad guy?! And yet, there are those who somehow blame him. For something. Gotta protect those illegal alien criminals and fraudsters!
How does one become so ill? (And there are also those proudly standing up for Lindsay Clancy and Luigi Mangione, most of them women. Monsters. Some of these same karens and Hasan Piker-likers still openly cheer — and mock — the assassination of Charlie Kirk.)
The media long ago picked sides. Which led to the death of “journalists.” The erstwhile “Land of Milk and Honey” just codified this travesty. The “Golden State” is no more.

But don’t try to investigate what happened. Or else.
