Ep. 96 | Newsom's Wildfire Plan Is Less Than 1% Complete

Wildfire prevention is one of the biggest issues in California politics. Every year, after another devastating fire season, our leaders promise they'll clear the brush, improve our water supply, and cut through the red tape standing in the way of critical projects. But promises mean nothing if they never become reality. Despite years of promises from our Governor, California has completed less than 1% of its wildfire prevention commitments. We're breaking down why that matters for you today!

Ep. 95 | California’s Prison iPad Program EXPOSED

California has spent hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars rolling out iPads to prison inmates across the state. Officials say the program is about rehabilitation, education, and keeping inmates connected to family, but a recent investigation raises serious questions about how these devices are actually being used. At its core, this isn’t just a story about technology in prisons. It’s about how California defines justice, and who is being prioritized in the process!
