After months of disinformation, it is important to set the record straight. On December 3, 2018, I was sworn into office on a promise to Reform, Rebuild, and Restore the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. After twenty-two months, one pandemic, civil unrest, an openly hostile board of supervisors, and dishonest LA Times coverage, I can report that we have done exactly that: reform a massive operation where previous sheriffs failed. ICE has been removed from the jails, patrol stations, and courthouses. There is a permanent moratorium on all transfers of undocumented inmates to ICE custody. Federal SCAAP grant funds, previously taken in exchange for selling out the undocumented inmate database, have been summarily rejected. These milestones alone set me apart from my predecessors, but we didn’t stop there...

Tucker Carlson Tonight: Hunter’s Emails & The Media Cover-Up. The mainstream media is protecting the powerful. No one even thought to ask Biden why, if the laptop is a Russian invention, there’s a letter from Hunter Biden's lawyer asking for it back. And now, no one will be able to ask him. Joe Biden has now gone into hiding until Thursday. That means the media can continue to collude unimpeded with our spy agencies to continue to lie to us. It’s the Russians. Because Russia — and repeat after us as we say this, until you reflectively believe it — is. The. Greatest. Threat. We. Face.

LOS ANGELES - Federal authorities are expected to vote Tuesday on what likely sparked a fire aboard a scuba dive boat last year that killed 34 people off the coast of Southern California. The pre-dawn blaze aboard the Conception is one of California’s deadliest maritime disasters, prompting both criminal and safety investigations into the Sept. 2, 2019, tragedy that claimed the lives of 33 passengers and one crew member on a Labor Day weekend expedition near an island off Santa Barbara. The National Transportation Safety Board will vote Tuesday on their investigation’s findings, the fire’s probable cause and any recommendations that could potentially prevent further incidents. NTSB investigators said in a report released last month that the cause remains undetermined but a possible ignition point was phones and other electronics plugged into outlets. One crew member told authorities he saw sparks when he plugged in his cellphone hours before the fire. Five crew members, including Capt. Jerry Boylan, were asleep above deck when the fire broke out — an apparent violation of Coast Guard regulations requiring a roving watch — and managed to escape by jumping into the water. Authorities said they repeatedly tried in vain to save the others. The surviving crew members also told investigators they were never instructed on emergency procedures. The NTSB is a federal regulatory agency but it has no enforcement powers and can only submit its suggestions to bodies like the Federal Aviation Administration or the Coast Guard, which have repeatedly rejected some of the board’s safety recommendations after other disasters. The Coast Guard has, however, issued additional safety recommendations following the Conception fire, such as limiting charging of lithium-ion batteries and the use of power strips and extension cords. Officials must take into account the potential impact of a proposed recommendation on the boating community, said Kyle McAvoy, a marine safety specialist with Robson Forensic in Philadelphia.
