Wishful thinking aside, California did not participate in the realignment that, on November 5, 2024, may have transformed American politics forever. The positive spin on California’s dismal failure to liberate itself from failing Democrat policies rests on what are, in the cold light of day, modest achievements. California’s voters approved Proposition 36, a ballot initiative that made criminal behavior a crime again; they recalled a few Soros DAs, and GOP candidates logged a net gain of two seats in the state assembly and one seat in the state senate. It’s not enough.
To begin with, the fact that voters had to overrule a corrupt legislature and judiciary to compel law enforcement to once again enforce the law is no reason to celebrate. It’s just one first step, in just one area, against a party that wields layers upon layers of stupefying power in every area of policy. The State Supreme Court is still packed with Democrat appointees. The state bureaucracy, consisting of a bewildering and almost innumerable collection of regulatory agencies and commissions, is under the absolute control of public sector unions.

Update (1420ET): After 2.5 hours of arguments, the Supreme Court on Wednesday appeared to lean towards upholding Tennessee’s ban on ‘gender-affirming care’ for minors.
During arguments, several conservative justices questioned the Biden administration’s claim that there’s “overwhelming” evidence supporting supposed benefits of giving children puberty blockers and hormone treatments.
“I wonder if you would like to stand by this statement, or if you think it would now be appropriate to modify that and withdraw the statement,” said Justice Samuel Alito, who pointed to several European nations that have banned the practice.
Justice Prett Kavanaugh, meanwhile, said “If it’s evolving like that and changing, and England is pulling back and Sweden is pulling back, it strikes me as a a pretty heavy yellow light, if not red light, for this court to come in, the nine of us, and constitutionalize the whole area.“
