Tonight, as a lifelong Republican, I formally announce my support for
@JoeBiden
for president. We cannot afford four more years of indecency, incompetence, and immorality from this administration. Let us work together as patriots to get out the vote and put #CountryOverParty

Hold Donald Trump up to a mirror and that bulging, scowling orange face is today's Republican Party

I am here to bear reluctant witness that Mr. Trump didn’t hijack the Republican Party. He is the logical conclusion of what the party became over the past 50 or so years, a natural product of the seeds of race-baiting, self-deception and anger that now dominate it. Hold Donald Trump up to a mirror and that bulging, scowling orange face is today’s Republican Party.

Vulnerable immigrants conned into spending life savings on worthless land in California City

Silver Saddle now sits closed and remains in state receivership following a lawsuit slapped on it by the California Department of Business Oversight.

Along the way she spoke with several people, many of them immigrants, who had invested upwards of tens of thousands of dollars in land sales deals only to come away with empty wallets and shattered dreams.

“I went looking into Silver Saddle and spoke with a number of people who invested with Silver Saddle, all of whom had very similar stories of what had happened to them there,” Guerin said, including how those people had felt they had been pressured into buying investment products they barely understood.

California City
Deep in the Mojave Desert, there is a little town with a big name and a bizarre history: California City. For decades, real estate developers have sold a dream here: if you buy land now, you’ll be rich one day. Thousands of people bought this dream. Many were young couples and hard-working immigrants looking to build a better future. But much of the land they bought is nearly worthless. In this new podcast from LAist Studios, host Emily Guerin tells a story of money, power and deception.
