I’ve put my “compelling” arguments on here, too long to list mind you…The editorial you linked to has numerous misspellings, grammatical errors, and errors of fact. It’s not the compelling argument you think it is.
Finally!
Even Nancy Pelosi stuffed her pockets. There should be a federal investigation on that scam. It would be to their benefit if the citizens of California woke the fuck up!!!Finally!
No. The cost overruns and delays have been staggering so they are killing it.No one knows how to waste money like Republicans. I’m sure they’ll be in here soon saying “one more lane will fix it”.
People should stay put.Always wondered why Americans have to drive or fly between, say, New York and Boston or New York and Washington. If you had decent railways there would be more room on the roads and less strain on the airports.
That’s why I made the statement that no one wastes money like Republicans. All that money and thanks to Tepublicans nothing to show for it. I’m sure the Republicans will schedule a huge parade to celebrate the money they wasted.No. The cost overruns and delays have been staggering so they are killing it.
You obviously don’t follow California government. Democrats own the HSR failure. They have held the governorship and veto proof majorities in the legislature since the project’s inception.That’s why I made the statement that no one wastes money like Republicans.

LOL! The Dems aren’t the one who spent the money and killed the project.You obviously don’t follow California government. Democrats own the HSR failure. They have held the governorship and veto proof majorities in the legislature since the project’s inception.
You obviously don’t understand the legislative process. Republicans cannot pass anything in CA without support from the Democrats veto proof majority in the state legislature and the governor.LOL! The Dems aren’t the one who spent the money and killed the project.
So now you’re saying Republicans didn’t kill the HSR?You obviously don’t understand the legislative process. Republicans cannot pass anything in CA without support from the Democrats veto proof majority in the state legislature and the governor.
It’s very simple. The boondoggle project failed miserably under Democratic leadership in California so the Trump administration is pulling federal funding.So now you’re saying Republicans didn’t kill the HSR?
Please make up your mind and learn how our government works.
The willful ignorance I read daily from the True Faith Radicalized dems is amazing…You obviously don’t follow California government. Democrats own the HSR failure. They have held the governorship and veto proof majorities in the legislature since the project’s inception.
How did it fail if it wasn’t complete??It’s very simple. The boondoggle project failed miserably under Democratic leadership in California so the Trump administration is pulling federal funding.![]()
I love that the irony of your post is lost on you. Keep believing though, it’s hilarious.The willful ignorance I read daily from the True Faith Radicalized dems is amazing…

https://forum.literotica.com/threads/elizabeth-holmes-riots.1556275/[Elizabeth Holms riots] Geez, the case hasn’t even gone to the jury and the rioters in CA are already looting the high end fashion stores. If the verdict goes the wrong way the streets of Walnut Creek, San Francisco, and LA could be filled with blondes in black turtlenecks. Not even going to guess how this would all go down if she were black.

If you live in CA, this is on YOU. You voted this in. The waste is EPIC on this boondoggle.I love that the irony of your post is lost on you. Keep believing though, it’s hilarious.
The state government’s betrayal has continued ever since the incomplete and deficient 2008 business plan was not submitted on time. The project continued without adequate planning, supervision, or oversight. Not surprisingly, it continued to go south. The LAO found the HSR’s 2009 report to be flawed: “Discussion of risk management is significantly inadequate, lacking any description of mitigation processes or detailed considerations of many key types of risks”; and “Few deliverables or milestones are identified in the plan against which progress can be measured. Also, inconsistencies in the proposed order of events create some uncertainty.”—LATimes
But Trump is the one who left people with nothing. All this money spent and nothing to show for it is on Trump. As you pointed out Trump was president for a few years of this project, so this is also on him.If you live in CA, this is on YOU. You voted this in. The waste is EPIC on this boondoggle.
Just to set the record straight. The project since its inception been plagued by incompetence. First it was voted on without the business plan being released until after the bond session had been voted on. Things like; train capacity, service levels, break-even points, and how monies would be secured…you know…basic shit that any high school project could come up with! Not to mention the biggie for CA…environmental reviews!
Cost overruns, timeline and schedule delays…yeah…not President Trump’s problem. You do realize that out of the 17 yrs this pie in the sky project has been attempted, it’s been overseen by Democrat governors for 14 of that.…correct?
Here’s the ultimate poke in the eye. It’s costing, right now, $2.7 m (that’s Million you for democrats) per MILE! That’s not even considering the projected cost overruns for the finish line in…Jesus, what is it now, ‘35?
Typical of you to comment on things you know nothing about. Lol. The $33 billion project was approved by CA voters in 2008. They were promised it would get commuters from San Francisco to Los Angeles in 2 hours and 40 minutes and go into operation in 2020.How did it fail if it wasn’t complete??
Yes, Trump allowed billions of dollars to go to nothing. You’re starting to see how it was Trump who wasted the money.
So thanks to Trump all that money that was spent has gone for nothing instead of a HSR that would have linked SF, LA & LV.Typical of you to comment on things you know nothing about. Lol. The $33 billion project was approved by CA voters in 2008. They were promised it would get commuters from San Francisco to Los Angeles in 2 hours and 40 minutes and go into operation in 2020.
Fast forward to 2025. After consistently blowing through budget estimates and missing countless deadlines, costs have exploded to $128 billion and continue growing, and there is literally no completion date. It was all a fantasy. With tails between their legs, Democrats that govern the state have drastically scaled back their ambitions. They now hope to have a train run between Bakersfield and Merced sometime between 2030 and 2033.
Transportation Secretary Duffy is putting a halt to the bleeding. Taxpayers across the country will no longer be throwing good money after bad to subsidize California’s grossly mismanaged choo choo train calamity.
