Blue State Disaster

Well this is appalling:

  • From the State of Washington - 

    Late Friday night, House Democrats voted to raid $4 billion from the law enforcement and firefighter pension plan to cover the multi-billion-dollar budget deficit they created.

    Every Republican in the state House voted against House Bill 2034.

    Democrats plan to deposit $569 million in the Climate Commitment Account.

No idea what their pensions look like, but given it's a blue state and lousy with panti-fa supporters, we imagine it ain't the greatest - and now it just got worse.

We better make sure what safe guards we have in place here to prevent that from happening. Also why only police and fire pensions, how about the teachers, laborers and civilian office workers pensions.

Fake climate change. I recall a cold winter this year and a hot summer last year it’s called SEASONS. Remember the acid rain threat of the 80’s? Remember the ice caps (no ice caps) melting threat? Remember a hole in the fake o zone layer threat? All resulted in more taxes and less freedoms. Every serious scientist will tell you there is no climate change but they listen to Greta Dumbberg.

This is what the Act is:

“Washington's Climate Commitment Act (CCA), passed in 2021 and enacted in 2023, is a market-based program that aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. The CCA is the state's primary policy for emissions reduction and is the second such program in the US.”

A major scam by the Democrats that has no science based proof of what they say.
Just a transfer of money to their connected organizations and the globalists. Al Gore predicted a lot of things that would occur with climate change that never came true, and he is still out there with the politicians and globalists peddling more lies and people believe him.

Notice the Democrats did not vote to take the money from their own pension plans.
Will be coming to a State near you so buckle up.

Mean while in NYC...
Mamdani with the path he has presented as “much more damaging”: raising property taxes and pulling from reserves to fill the remaining gap. The proposal includes a 9.5% property tax increase, which would need to be approved by the City Council. It would also include drawing down $980 million from the Rainy Day Fund this fiscal year and $229 million from the Retiree Health Benefits Trust in fiscal year 2027,

Pretty easy to look up. They have a surplus, which is why they decided to raid it

Similar thing here in Chicago going on. Money for everything else but not for the police and fire pensions.

From what I read is the pension fund is over funded to a degree that taking $4 billion still keeps them around 96% funded.

Mamdani said they need to do the same thing in New York. Seems to be a trend starting up, steal police and fire pension and retirement funds.

Absolutely disgusting! Freighting! Democrats can’t be trusted to manage money. The federal government needs to take over all first responder pensions otherwise it will be very difficult to get anyone to do the job. To risk your life and then get fucked over in retirement is unconscionable.

They need money from somewhere, and Trump is plugging all the holes. They are going to go to the easiest source they can find.

That shouldn’t be a reason to take from it. The pension is half contributions from the state/city/county (as promised when getting on th job) and half is an employee contribution. Let the employee decide if anyone can “borrow”

what safeguards are you talking about? Look at the Police Pension Fund, there is no transparency. The fund was raided by former Mayor Daley's Nephew for millions of dollars, and the monies were not paid back. what is the fund's investment strategies? The fund is at approximately 24%. What strategies are going to be used to strengthen the fund? The Fire Departments fund is worse than ours, funded at 18%. What are the managers of that fund going to do to help strengthen that fund? Questions, questions, and more questions.

Exactly. Everyone who says “but it’s in the state constitution” and “it’s law” will be quite shocked when the satiate amends the constitution and fucks with our pension.

Now that's some serious Chicago-level corruption. Reminds us of Obama. JB Pritzker’s downtown Chicago hotel has scored more than $180 MILLION in taxpayer-funded renovations. That includes almost $10 million last year alone. But here's the craziest part:

After Whoopie Goldberg broke up with him in the 90s, actor Ted Danson tried to regain relevance by making a public commitment to Saving the Oceans, which he said would die in 10 years, citing the whale thing, you know. The oceans and whales are still alive, the Japanese are still eating blubber and Ted is doing commercials. I don’t know if he’s covered by a pension.

Simple....If they do that to them they can strike and you can't. That said I wouldn't worry about it....not sure there is enough in your pension funds left to rob.

I golf with several retired Officers from Spokane Washington here in Arizona whe told me that their pension had a 2 billion surplus. Several years ago everyone collecting from the pension received a lump sum check of around 30 grand because of the surplus.
