Remove the gun Violence reduction team, and now here we sit. We see the Mayor Ted Willard. He's one day he's getting punched in the face by citizens another he's having to use pepper spray. We have riots in the street request to pick up garbage and remove graffiti is at a 300% gun violence and the homicides were at a 30 year high. This is defund the police. This is a culture of criminality. This is what it looks like. Pulliam says. A recent article in The Oregonian newspaper shows that 64% of local business owners in Portland are in fear of what could happen to their business and one third told the newspaper that they will likely leave Portland in the next 2 to 3 years and that area of the country in addition to Seattle has just been lawless.

Then local businesses that have been relentlessly attacked in Portland and Seattle over the course of not just one day, But many, many months, I think, because that's private property and city property. They relied on mayors and governors to go in there and quell that which some mayors and governors have shown a little little need or attitude toward wanting to do that. Where's the federal outrage? I mean, if it's outrageous that what happened to the capital, and it is we get that right and we understand what that but let's apply it equally, and that's one of the that is one of the qualms that people have with Washington D C right now.

Here's KQED is Katie or Like so many before him. California Attorney General Javier Herb Acerra is moving up. The Sarah has been tapped as President Joe Biden's nominee for secretary of health and human services. His confirmation is likely now that Democrats control the U. S Senate, But Sarah's resignation would mean Governor Gavin Newsom gets to pick a new Agey for the state. And the competition is stiff, says Democratic consultant Brian Broca, who's worked for Harrison Newsome is a very powerful position is very unique position. There's a reason why it's so shot after now, and every election here, there's an old joke. A G stands for aspiring governor. That may be one reason, Brokaw says. The job is drawing a lot of interest. I certainly those people in Washington who would be willing and interested in coming back to serve in the role. I think there are a lot of people in Sacramento and throughout the state who are interested in the position. Several Democrats, well known around the capital have been mentioned as contenders, including Sacramento mayor and former Senate President Gerald Steinberg and Oakland Assemblyman Rob Bonta. Both have good relationships with Newsome. Names of Los Angeles Congressman Ted Lieu and Adam Schiff are also in the mix. There is also a push to appoint a woman loyal a law school professor Jessica Levinson says Newsom will likely want someone he feels comfortable with. He may take gender or racial diversity into consideration. And Levinson says Newsome has shown he likes to break barriers with his appointments. I just think that Governor Newsome really loves being a king or queen maker, and he wants to put his stamp on And next big up and comer Whoever the pick here, she won't be in the same situation as the Sarah Woz. He served during the entire Trump administration filing more than 120 lawsuits against the president. And while that put the Sarah in a very public facing position, Levinson says, the next attorney general probably won't be as visible.
