he Soboba Casino Resort Event Center was full of music, laughter and good cheer as Soboba Elders were invited to ring in 2022 with a lavish dinner party on Dec. 29. From 3 to 7 p.m. about 100 guests were entertained by the rhythm and blues band Sly, Slick & Wicked, DJ Mike Nevarez and Aalon, a soul group formed by lead singer and guitarist Aalon Butler. Luis “Lou” Pizarro of the television show “Operation Repo” offered comedic relief as the night’s emcee.

Elders and their guests were treated to a choice of chicken, roast beef or salmon accompanied by mashed potatoes, a variety of vegetables, a wide array of salads and a bottle of wine to toast the new year. There were prize raffles and a photo booth to keep everyone engaged throughout the event and each guest received a one-pound box of See’s

Jodi Newkirk is the second woman lost at the ranch in the past 18 months.

CBS 8 obtained a telephone recording of the man who reported to Riverside Sheriff that Jodi Newkirk had died in an accidental ATV rollover two days before Christmas.

A relative of Newkirk, who does not want to be identified, recorded the audio of Keith Harper on a telephone call, a few days after Newkirk’s death.

“Jodi was an amazing individual. You know, you had to just love her,” Harper said during the telephone conversation.

He apparently did not know the call was being recorded.

“She’s been an awesome help here, an amazing person to have on the ranch,” Harper said.

Newkirk, 46, had been working at the ranch in Mountain Center since early August as a horse handler.

Harper has been acting as trustee of the ranch since June

“I don't know if you know this, but my fiancée, she disappeared a year and a half ago,” Harper said on the recorded phone call. “She disappeared and we've been dealing with her missing.”

During the telephone call, Harper claimed Newkirk rode off on a quad just after sunset on December 23, 2021, to cut down a live Christmas tree.

“She wanted to go get a Christmas tree and she took the ATV up on the hill and, I don't know, I don't know if she turned the wheel wrong, or what happens. But the machine flips and when I find her, she has been under that machine probably a half-hour, I would suspect,” said Harper during the call.

“The only thing I could see was her face and probably six inches of her chest, the rest of it was underneath the machine. You know, because it was on her chest she couldn't breathe. I moved the machine off. I moved it off so I could do CPR on her,” he said.

California Launches Program to Compensate Survivors of State-Sponsored Sterilization New law creates Forced or Involuntary Sterilization Compensation Program GOV.CA.GOV | CONTRIBUTED

ontinuing the state’s leadership to redress historical injustices, Governor Gavin Newsom announced the launch of California’s new program to compensate survivors of state-sponsored sterilization, created as part of the 2021-22 state budget package.

Beginning Jan. 1, 2022, survivors of state-sponsored sterilization can apply for compensation through California’s Forced or Involuntary Sterilization Compensation Program, which is being administered by the California Victim Compensation Board (CalVCB).

“California is committed to confronting this dark chapter in

the state’s past and addressing the impacts of this shameful history still being felt by Californians,” said Governor Newsom. “While we can never fully make amends for what they’ve endured, the state will do all it can to ensure survivors of wrongful sterilization receive compensation.”

The state is providing $4.5 million to be split evenly among all eligible individuals who apply, in addition to $2 million for administration and outreach for the program and $1 million to establish markers or plaques at designated sites that acknowledge the wrongful sterilization of thousands of vulnerable people.

It is estimated that at least 600 survivors of forced sterilization are still alive today and eligible

for compensation.

From 1909 through 1979, under state eugenics laws, thousands of people who lived in California state-run hospitals, homes and institutions were sterilized. Those laws were repealed in 1979. However, it was later found that forced or coerced sterilizations continued to be performed on people in custody at state prisons or other correctional facilities under the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.

Assemblymember Wendy Carrillo (D-Los Angeles) proposed the program in AB 1007. The budget provided legislative language establishing the forced sterilization compensation program and appropriated $7.5 million to fund the program.

Survivors are encouraged to visit www.victims.ca.gov/fiscp or reach out to CalVCB at 800-7779229 or fiscp@victims.ca.gov to obtain an application. They can also send a letter to P.O. Box 591, Sacramento, CA 95812-0591.

Applications will be accepted from Jan. 1, 2022 through Dec. 31, 2023. Applying is completely confidential. Compensation paid to the claimant or claimant’s trust will not impact a survivor’s Medicaid or Social Security status or benefits and will not be considered income for state tax purposes or for community property, child support, restitution or a money judgment.

For more information on the program, please visit victims. ca.gov/fiscp.

Woman found partially buried in Riverside County desert decades ago identified through DNA CNS | CONTRIBUTED

A

Bellflower woman whose remains were unearthed near Thousand Palms almost 30 years ago was positively identified based on a DNA match, authorities said Monday.

The body of Patricia Cavallaro, 57, was discovered partially buried on Oct. 24, 1994, in the area of Date Palm Drive and Ramon Road.

Riverside County Sheriff 's Department detectives ultimately determined that she was the victim of a homicide. However, clues about her identity were nil, despite a detailed sketch being circulated publicly at the time, and the case soon went cold.

The investigation was eventually taken over by the District Attorney's Office's Regional Cold Case Homicide Team, whose personnel focused on genetic material recovered from the victim's remains and placed in the California Department of Justice's

Missing & Unidentified Persons System.

Based on an extensive search stemming from a 20-year-old missing persons report, investigators were able to track down a potential DNA match to the woman -- Cavallaro's son, whose identity was not dis-

closed. He provided a DNA sample that was processed by a private laboratory, Woodlands, Texas-based Othram Inc. The company coordinated with the DOJ in issuing a report last month confirming that the remains found in 1994 were Cavallaro's, according to the D.A.'s office.

What happened to the victim remains a mystery.

According to the Desert Sun, Cavallaro's husband, also not identified, reported her missing in 2001, saying only that she had vanished after leaving home. The man died in 2017.

The unsolved murder case remains open, and anyone with information was asked to contact investigators at 951-955-5400.

California lawmakers unveil plan to hold gun makers liable for shootings HANNAH WILEY | CONTRIBUTED

G

ov. Gavin Newsom's plan to target the gun industry through private lawsuits is coming together in legislation unveiled Tuesday that would allow gun violence survivors and other citizens to sue firearm manufacturers and dealers.

In December, the governor called on the Legislature and Atty. Gen. Rob Bonta to model legislation after a Texas law that bans most abortions after six weeks and gives private people the ability to sue providers and clinics as tool to help enforce it. The U.S. Supreme Court declined to block the law, and Newsom responded by pledging to implement the same legislative prototype in California to go after firearms.

"So long as the United States Supreme Court has set a precedent which allows private citizens to sue to stop abortions in Texas, California will use that same ability to save lives," Newsom spokesperson Daniel Lopez said in a statement Tuesday.

Assembly Bill 1594 would hand the state, local governments, gun violence survivors and victims' families the power to pursue legal action against "irresponsible, reckless or negligent gun manufacturers, importers and dealers," said Assemblyman Phil Ting of San Francisco, one of three Democrats pushing the plan. The proposal predates the Texas bill and replicates a 2021

New York gun control law that targets manufacturers, Ting said, but still "gets at the spirit of what the governor called for."

"The governor was asking for the ability to sue the gun manufactures, the gun industry, and we believe this achieves that," Ting said.

"This puts the power back in the hands of people."

The bill would leverage a loophole in federal law that largely shields gun manufacturers and dealers from liability when their products are involved in a crime, Ting said. He noted that companies and sellers are still liable under state regulations, and AB 1594 aims to hold them accountable to those in California such as required rigorous background checks and a ban on sales to people prohibited from owning firearms. The proposed law would ensure distributors and manufacturers are not causing a "public nuisance" with their products or "engaging in unfair business practices," Ting said.

"What we are quite simply trying to do is just to make

sure gun manufacturers are really held responsible for the harm that guns do on our streets everyday here in California," he added. "We think that if the manufacturers, importers and dealers will take greater responsibility that will make our streets much safer."

Lopez said the governor was working with lawmakers on a package of gun control measures and will "closely monitor" them as they move through the Legislature.

Assemblyman Mike Gipson (D-Carson) said he plans to introduce a second bill this week that targets assault weapons and "ghost gun" distributors through private legal action, which Newsom explicitly called for in his December statement.

"If we can sue car dealers, if we can sue lawyers for malpractice, if we can sue a barrage of individuals, why should not the people of this state of California have the same ability to sue a gun manufacturer?" Gipson said.

The efforts could still prove risky despite Califor-

nia's affinity for gun control, said Loyola Law School Professor Jessica Levinson. Unlike abortion access, Levinson said, gun rights are explicitly written into the Constitution. That means not only could the Supreme Court strike down any new law targeting the industry, but Newsom and the Legislature might unintentionally welcome legal scrutiny for policies already on the books.

"He's not even proposing a law that is clearly unconstitutional, but it is a little risky because he is going to call attention, an enormous amount of attention, to those restrictions and subject them to challenge," Levinson said. "And we know with this particular court, that's risky business."

Levinson said the effort will still be a win either way for Newsom, who overwhelmingly thwarted a recall effort in September and now has more freedom to test his political boundaries.

"It's very Newsomian. He just cherishes being first in the nation, and this is popular in California. And the more he has first in the country, first in the nation on his résumé, the happier he is," Levinson said. "He resoundedly swatted down this recall and now he's taking his political capital out for a little ride."

In a statement, spokesperson Daniel Lopez said Newsom is working on with lawmakers on a "package of gun measures and will continue to closely monitor these bills as they develop."

Pam Valdez, who is the group’s current vice president, said they had barely started planning out events for the year when she was elected in January of 2021 before things had to be cancelled or postponed.

“Since June or July we’ve been doing pretty good with bingo nights, a trip to Laughlin and other short trips,” Valdez said. “My hope for 2022 is to get rid of COVID for good and be able to go out more.”

Johnna Valdez, who was enjoying the music at the event, said she is looking for the new year to be a more healing year. “I want everybody to be safe,” she said. “I always say I’m going to lose weight on January first and that’s out the door by January second, so I don’t make resolutions anymore.”

Current president of the Elders group, Rosemary Morillo, said she’s looking for the virus to be completely gone and see everyone enjoy good health. “It’s

she said.

She said the group took its first outing of the year in April when a small number of them went to Knott’s Berry Farm as restrictions were lifted. An outing to San Diego was another day trip they were able to enjoy.

Morillo is thankful for her new grandson that was born Dec. 18. The mother of nine has 27 grandchildren and 14 great grandchildren. She said the past couple of years they have had to drop off food and presents for birthdays, but all live locally which made things a little easier. She is optimistic that there will be family in-person get-togethers for special occasions in the new year.

The Placencia family was enjoying the Dec. 29 celebration. Tara Placencia, with her husband of 33 years, Pat Placencia, was looking forward to her New Year’s Eve birthday. She said a highlight of 2021 was the wedding of their daughter, Tatiana, in May. The couple were happy to be spending the evening with family. “I am just hoping for a better year for everybody,” Tara said.

Each January, elections are held for a new board of directors for the Elders group of tribal members who are 55+ years of age.

The board oversees the establishment of what types of events most of the membership wants to have. But already being organized is a trip to Scottsdale, Arizona to visit some of the baseball spring training camps, Schenk said, adding that “people are looking forward to the new year after COVID-19 put a halt to many of our past events.”

H

ere we are again another New Year to usher in and along with it the proverbial New Year’s resolutions! The list, of course, is endless and is usually framed around self-improvement— read more books, be a nicer person, exercise, don’t eat so many jelly donuts, etc. But almost 50% of those who make these resolutions break them within the first month. So, this year I’ve decided to stick to making only one new resolution. I’ve determined this year not just to survive but to thrive! That’s my resolution!

Thrive!!

This past year was to be the one where we would find a cure for the pandemic, or at the very least, tell the truth about other valid treatments. This was to be the year masking would end. This was to be the year our government would finally “get it” and our schools, restaurants, churches and workplaces would reopen - sanity would again prevail.

Jeremy Young - a specialist in emotional and social movements said, “Wishful thinking may be natural, but anticipating a good year on the heels of catastrophe is a setup for disappointment.” Well, he’s the cheery one, isn’t he?! But Nostradamus, can top that. 450 years ago, ol’ Nostra prophesied that in 2022 “a great fire will fall from the sky”many have interpreted this to mean an asteroid shower will destroy the earth.

So - considering our sorry state of current events, is my New Year’s resolution even possible, and if so, how? What does it take to not merely survive, but to thrive amidst difficult times such as these?

First of all, I believe it’s

vitally important to realize things have changed - these are not the days when we can leave our homes without locking the front door, or grocery shop in the evening without being aware of our surroundings. Let’s not be naive - “bad” has been ramped up and the landscape has changed. Things are different.

It reminds me of a letter a county worker sent out to folks who were moving in from the city to his rural area. Not quite grasping the differences they would encounter, these newcomers were having trouble navigating in their new environment. Thus - The Letter.

The thirteen-page booklet was called “The Code of the West: The Realities of Rural Living.” Here are a few outtakes: “Animals and their manure can cause objectionable odors. What else can we say?” “If your road is gravel, it will generate dust.”

“The topography of the land can tell you where the water will go in case of heavy precipitation. When property owners fill in ravines, they have found that the water that drained through that ravine now drains through their house.” The booklet was written so people would know what to expect in their new surroundings.

We are also in new surroundings - that said, let’s swing back to thriving. Being happy or content in the midst of personal or societal crisis is nothing new!

We think we’re the “only ones” - but we’re not. People down through the centuries have had to learn to navigate around adversity and hardship.

Even Paul in the Bible speaks to this dilemma in Philippians 4, while sitting in a dark, foul, stinking, Roman prison: “I’m glad in God, far happier than you would ever guess - I’ve learned to be content what-

SUSAN BECKETT | Courtesy Photo. ever my circumstances.

I’m just as happy with little as with much, with much as with little. I’ve found the recipe for being happy whether full or hungry, hands full or hands empty.

Whatever I have, wherever I am, I can make it through anything. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” Add to that Wayne Dyer’s quote and we’re home: “Be miserable. Or motivate yourself.

Whatever has to be done, it’s always your choice.”

It’s very easy to get sucked up into the culture of the day and conform to an alternate agenda without even realizing it. Hearing constant negativity, believing the worst, allowing fear to invade our thoughts - tough way to live! But attitude determines altitude - it’s true. When we follow the world’s culture we will survive. We’ll be okay. We may even be comfortable but we won’t thrive and we won’t have Godly purpose in our lives!

I’m with Maya Angelou on this one, “My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.” Let’s move forward and thrive! “After all,” as someone once quipped, “Remember the guy that gave up? Neither does anyone else!”

POLITICAL BRIEF

Legislature faces difficult politics of plenty DAN WALTERS | CALMATTERS

A

s California deals with new waves of crime and COVID-19, the Legislature reconvenes and must decide how to spend a multi-billion-dollar windfall of tax revenues.

After a four-month sabbatical, state legislators returned to Sacramento Monday for a new session that will be dominated by several seemingly contradictory factors.

On the negative side, California is once again dealing with a surge of COVID-19, this one caused by a particularly virulent variant called Omicron, that creates thorny issues, such as whether public schools serving 6 million kids can remain open. Californians’ angst over the pandemic’s impacts is magnified by rising public fears over crime, particularly homicides and other violent crime.

Crime and disease threaten an economy that is still struggling to recover from earlier pandemic surges, which erased more than two million jobs and shuttered countless small businesses, particularly restaurants. While employment is slowly increasing, the state still has the nation’s highest unemployment rate, 6.9% in November.

As millions of Californians on the lower rungs of the economic ladder still

feel the income impacts of pandemic, they also must cope with a sharp increase in the state’s already high costs of living. Rising prices of necessities, such as rent and gasoline, worsen the state’s economic divide and its unenviable status of having the nation’s highest poverty rate.

Conversely, however, those occupying the ladder’s higher rungs have been prospering. Federal economic policies, especially low interest rates, have inflated values of their income-producing assets, such as stocks, and the state has been seeing tens of billions of dollars in additional income tax revenues.

These conflicting trends set the stage for a momentous debate over how the cornucopia of tax money will be spent. Should California now take giant steps toward the creation of a Western European-style

array of income subsidies and social services, much favored by those on the left wing of the dominant Democratic Party? Or should it adopt the more conservative approach of diverting much of the windfall into reserves and/or spending it for one-time purposes, such as paying down debt or public works projects?

Gov. Gavin Newsom anticipates what he called an “historic” surplus as revenues continue to flood the state treasury, so far an additional $10 billion halfway through the 2021-22 fiscal year. The state budget has already topped a quarter-trillion dollars and the Legislature’s budget advisor, Gabe Petek , estimates that the state will have another $31 billion surplus for the 2022-23 budget.

Newsom will unveil his proposed budget next week and has already dropped some hints about his prior-

ities, such as more money to combat crime and clean up homeless encampments.

Legislative leaders want to prioritize aid to low-income Californians who are suffering the most from the pandemic, both medically and financially.

“It’s interesting the economy continues to do well (but) people don’t feel it,” Assembly Budget Committee chairman Phil Ting says.

“And so I think we have to get a sense of exactly where the pain points are, and what (are) the best ways to help them out.”

Senate President Pro Tem Toni Atkins has proposed to spend the windfall on “those who need it most — the middle class and families struggling to get by.” Specifics would include affordable housing and payments to essential workers.

The Gann Limit, a measure adopted by voters in 1979, restricts how unanticipated revenues can be spent, such as education, public works and rebates to taxpayers. The latter could be met by reprising last year’s cash payments to those under certain income thresholds.

Legislators are already being deluged with suggestions and demands on how to spend the budget windfall and it’s impossible to meet them all. The politics of plenty can be just as difficult as the politics of poverty.

California Rep. Devin Nunes quits Congress to lead new Trump firm. Who might replace him?

R

ep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) officially resigned from Congress on Monday, following through on his December pledge to step down from the elected office he has held since 2002.

“It has been the honor of my life to represent the people of California’s San Joaquin Valley for the last 19 years,” Nunes said in his resignation letter, which was read from the House floor.

Nunes only alluded to why he’s leaving office: to run a social media company owned by former President Donald Trump.

“I’ve been presented with a new opportunity to fight for the most im-

portant issues I believe in,” Nunes wrote, not explicitly naming Truth Social.

Nunes was in line to become chair of the powerful Ways and Means Committee if Republicans regain control of Congress in 2022.

Nunes had represented the heavily Republican 22nd Congressional District that covered Tulare and Fresno counties. But because of once-a-decade redistricting, Nunes’ district was redrawn to Democrat-leaning.

Rep. Jim Costa (D-Fresno) announced last month that he would run for the newly drawn seat.

range County Deputy District Attorney Kelly Ernby, a vocal opponent of COVID-19 vaccine mandates, has died at age 46 after contracting COVID-19.

Ben Chapman, chairman of the Greater Costa Mesa Republicans, tweeted Monday, “My heart is broken and I’m in tears. I lost a dear friend to Covid complications. I love you @ KellyErnby! You’ve been nothing but an inspiration to many of us here in Orange County.”

The district attorney’s office later confirmed her death.

Ernby ran for state Assembly in 2020 and was poised to do so again in 2022. According to Cal State Fullerton’s student newspaper, Ernby had given a speech railing against vaccine mandates on campus in which she drew “parallels between the 1960s and present day” and “said that in the 1960s, people faced losing freedoms to socialist ideas.”

spawned headlines in national publications given her opposition to vaccine mandates, some seemingly left-leaning users went onto her Facebook page and Twitter profile to leave comments mocking her.

They did the same on her husband’s Facebook page, while a seemingly right-leaning user alleged — falsely, according to her husband — that she was vaccinated, and subsequently suffered from blood clots.

“She was NOT vaccinated,” he wrote. “That was the problem.”

COVID-19 vaccines are highly protective at protecting against severe illness and death.

Not all of the messages posted on her husband’s Facebook page were terrible, however.

“Condolences,” one user wrote. “Thanks for clarifying vaccination status. This 24/7 online information war continues. Disregard the mean vicious comments. People are just lashing out.

Strength to you and your family.”

GUEST COMMENTARY Why are so many vaccinated people getting COVID-19 lately?

LAURA UNGAR | CONTRIBUTED

W

hy are so many vaccinated people getting COVID-19 lately?

A couple of factors are at play, starting with the emergence of the highly contagious omicron variant. Omicron is more likely to infect people, even if it doesn’t make them very sick, and its surge coincided with the holiday travel season in many places.

People might mistakenly think the COVID-19 vaccines will completely block infection, but the shots are mainly designed to prevent severe illness, says Louis Mansky, a virus researcher at the University of Minnesota.

And the vaccines are still doing their job on that front, particularly for people who’ve gotten boosters.

Two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna

vaccines or one dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine still offer strong protection against serious illness from omicron.

While those initial doses aren’t very good at blocking omicron infection, boosters — particularly with the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines — rev up levels of the antibodies to help fend off infection.

Omicron appears to replicate much more efficiently than previous variants. And if infected people have high virus loads, there’s a greater likelihood they’ll pass it on to others, especially the unvaccinated. Vaccinated people who get the virus are more likely to have mild symptoms, if any, since the shots trigger multiple defenses in your immune system, making it much more difficult for omicron to slip past them all.

Should Donald Trump run in 2024?

PATRICK J. GIBBS | COLUMNIST

W

ith the turn of the calendar to 2022, Republicans are not only looking to the 2022 midterm elections but to the prospect of Donald Trump running in 2024. Trump is hugely popular with the party’s base and that popularity freezes the plans of other possible candidates for the 2024 nomination. Trump’s hold on that nomination is brittle, however, because of his age. On election day in 2024 Donald Trump will be 78 years old. That is one year older than Ronald Reagan’s age when he left office in 1988.

Looking at the 2024 contest from the other side of the race, there is no reason to expect that Joe Biden will be nominated.

He has been in office for less than one year, and only diehard Democrats believe that he is not suffering from incapacitating mental deficits. The only question is which foreign adversary will take advantage of his weakness: China, Russia or Iran. So, the most likely scenario is for Biden’s resignation in 2022 or early 2023.

Trump may be popular now, but once the voters have been shocked by the disaster of one septuagenarian president why would they roll the dice on a 78-year-old Donald Trump holding office to age 82? It’s a very bad bet,

especially when there are younger, capable Republicans available. Ron DeSantis is at the top of the list of strong candidates for the presidency, but by 2023 we should have other governors and several senators eager to reach for the nomination.

I believe the above makes a strong case that it would be unwise for Donald Trump to run for the presidency in 2024. That presents the big question: how to persuade Trump to play the role of “kingmaker” in late 2022 and step back from his own candidacy?

I can think of two arguments, one that has a biblical theme and one based on the movie Patton.

In Deuteronomy it was written that when the Jewish people were on the verge of entering the Promised Land (Israel), Moses was only allowed to view it from Mount Nebo and died before his people entered it. Why? One interpretation is that God was punishing him for the sin of pride when he took the credit from God for finding water for his people when they desperately needed it while wandering in the desert.

The comparison to Moses would be instructive for Trump, if he were to realize that it’s not always about him. His egocen-

KEEPING IT REAL

Equal Justice? Contrasting Potter and Baldwin JOHN GREEN | COLUMNIST

C

omparing the Kim Potter and Alec Baldwin cases is a powerful illustration of the missing element in our criminal justice system. Prosecutors are granted broad discretion in who they charge, so that they may consider the totality of circumstances and provide something that the literal interpretation of laws can’t -- justice. But the Potter and Baldwin cases show just how far astray from that goal our systems have wandered.

The key events in both cases are remarkably similar. In both cases, a human being was accidentally shot and killed with a firearm. The facts in both cases are undisputed. Both Kim Potter and Alec Baldwin shot and killed another person. In neither case did the shooters intend to kill anyone. But the totality of circumstances would indicate completely different treatments needed for actual “justice.” The circumstances leading up to and following those incidents reveal just how corrupt our criminal justice system has become.

On April 11, 2021, Kim Potter was one of several police officers attempting to arrest Daunte Wright on an outstanding warrant for a firearms violation. He was also alleged to be in violation of a restraining order. Wright attempted to flee the scene in his car with a female passenger -- otherwise known as a hostage. Officers wrestled with Wright to prevent him from fleeing. Officer Potter eventually pulled her service weapon and shot and killed Daunte Wright. She immediately admitted that she had made a mistake, as she had intended to tase him instead.

Within three days of the shooting, Kim Potter was indicted for 2nd-degree manslaughter. A month later, the case was taken over by Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison. That would be the same Keith Ellison with past associations with the Nation of Islam, and the Vice Lords gang. The Vice Lords were responsible for the execution-style killing of Minneapolis police officer Jerry Haaf in 1992. Ellison also worked with Vice Lords

leader Sharif Willis, who was also implicated in the Haaf killing, to orchestrate antipolice protests. Ellison is now the top law enforcement official in Minnesota. He upgraded the charges against Potter to 1st-degree manslaughter.

Given his background, is it any surprise that Ellison would use the power of his office to go after a cop?

Just as a bit of background, Keith Ellison also led the prosecution of Derek Chauvin after the George Floyd death. Is it possible that the races of these particular victims might support some narrative that Ellison is promoting? Should that be a consideration in charging decisions?

Does anyone doubt that it was?

Potter went to trial in December of 2021. The judge failed to inform the jury that manslaughter in Minnesota requires the defendant to intentionally create circumstances of negligence. Without that intent, the incident is only an accident -- for which civil, not criminal liability applies. The jury convicted Kim Potter on all counts.

On October 21, 2021, Alec Baldwin was preparing to shoot a scene for his new movie Rust. He was both the lead actor and the producer, making him responsible for various aspects of management on the set.

As he sat quietly in a church pew on the set, he drew a revolver for practice, pointed it at the director of photography, Halyna Hutchins, and fired the weapon killing her and wounding the director, Joel Souza. Apparently, unbeknownst to anyone, the revolver was loaded.

After the incident, it was learned that there had been

several accidental discharges of firearms on the set. Some crew members had quit, due to lax gun safety. Others were frequently using the revolver in question for target shooting during breaks.

The totality of circumstances was such that the probability of an “accident” was near its maximum -- and everyone had been forewarned.

The Baldwin shooting is still under investigation by the Santa Fe County Sheriff ’s Department. But that hasn’t stopped Baldwin from taking his story on the road. He even sat for an hour-long interview with George Stephanopoulos, in which he proclaimed that he felt no guilt over the incident because he hadn’t done anything wrong.

He claims he had no duty to ensure the safety of the gun he was holding in his own hand. He was just practicing with a weapon that his staff had declared safe. It was their fault, not his. He was only the shooter.

In both incidents, people were accidentally shot and killed. In one incident, the shooting occurred while the victim was wrestling with police officers and attempting to flee with a hostage. The use of deadly force would have been justified.

But because Potter meant to tase him instead, she was tried and convicted of manslaughter.

In the other incident, the victim was killed while the shooter was sitting, under no stress, in a church, playing with a loaded gun that hadn’t been checked. Nobody has questioned Baldwin’s intent.

But he violated every safety rule prescribed by the gun and filmmaking industries, pointed a loaded weapon at another human being, and

fired it.

I’m not saying that the Santa Fe Sheriff should rush their investigation of the Hutchins shooting. I want them to do a thorough and complete investigation. I am saying that there was a rush to bring the power of the state to bear against Kim Potter -- simply because she was a police officer. And this rush to judgment was made by the same people that have tacitly supported the defund the police movement. It was about politics, not justice.

Kim Potter was just the egg that had to be broken for the omelet.

In the heat of wrestling with a known thug, Potter’s first instinct was to spare his life. Only an accident prevented her from doing so.

She then immediately admitted her error. Baldwin’s first instinct has been to blame everyone but himself for his mistake -- showing no remorse or acceptance of culpability. Can anyone claim that justice has been factored into the treatment of the two cases?

Isn’t Kim Potter precisely the kind of cop we want on the force? Yet she’s going to prison because she’s also human. Will sending her to prison for an accident help us get more good cops or more ill-suited cops? Will the public benefit from her incarceration, or suffer? Is this anyone’s definition of justice, other than the radicals of the left?

Cases such as Potter’s are exactly why prosecutors are granted prosecutorial discretion -- so that they may factor justice into their charging decisions based on the totality of circumstances.

But when radicals are elected into top law enforcement positions (looking at you, Keith Ellison), that discretion is used for the opposite of justice.

Now, Kim Potter is going to jail, and Alec Baldwin will probably be stumping for more gun control. How’s that for justice?

Episodes such as this reflect our social values. We value actors enough to cut them a little slack. Cops, not so much. But then the police only keep us safe. The actors entertain us.

Funding desert conservation will help achieve climate goals

PAMELA FLICK | GUEST COMMENTARY

T

he program aims to provide funding to protect and conserve California’s deserts, a large and incredibly biodiverse region.

There is truly nothing like experiencing a desert oasis.

My favorite such place in California is the Amargosa River, which flows intermittently for 185 miles from Nevada into eastern California.

On my last visit to the Amargosa in the Mojave Desert, I sat on the riverbank in awe of its healthy, thriving wetlands in the middle of this arid landscape. Once you spend time in one of California’s three deserts, you realize how diverse they are. From rugged watercourses to rolling dunes and towering peaks – our deserts contain some of our state’s most unique natural treasures.

I’m grateful to Assemblymember James Ramos,

PAMELA FLICK: California program director with Defenders of Wildlife and is based in Sacramento. | Courtesy Photo. a Democrat from Rancho Cucamonga, who represents portions of Southern California’s Inland Empire, for championing the new Desert Conservation Program within the state’s Wildlife Conservation Board. Signed into law in September, this is a first-ever program aimed at providing state funding opportunities to help protect California’s deserts.

While the creation of the program is a critical first step, it now requires funding. Our state leaders should

ensure full funding for this program so that we can provide much-needed investments in the communities, wildlife and landscapes of the California Desert region.

The state should fully fund the California Desert Conservation Program because it will help fulfill Gov. Gavin Newsom’s October 2020 executive order, which calls on the state to safeguard 30% of our lands and waters by 2030. This 30×30 effort is driven by scientific research suggesting that protecting public lands and other natural areas is one of the most effective strategies to mitigate climate change and biodiversity loss. 30×30 also urges agencies to conserve lands to increase access to the outdoors for underserved communities.

Despite its geographic size and importance, the California Desert region has not received dedicated state funding in the past. This is a huge, missed opportunity given the region spans

one-quarter of the state and is critical to our efforts to fight climate change.

In fact, California desert lands store nearly 10% of the state’s total carbon emissions. Undisturbed vegetation throughout the desert sequesters large amounts of carbon and stores it in roots and soils, which helps reduce carbon in our atmosphere. By fully funding the California Desert Conservation Program, the state can preserve the desert’s incredible abilities to fight climate change and ensure the region can thrive into the future.

Investing in the California Desert Conservation Program will also help reach 30×30 because more resources would improve access to nature. The California Desert region’s stunning parks and public lands draw visitors from around the world. One-half of the state’s population lives within an hour’s drive of the Califor-

NUNES from B1

Nunes in 2020, announced in Decmeber that he would run in the special election.

ALSO RUNNING: • State Senator Andreas Borgeas (R) who represents the 8th District, which encompasses parts of the Central Valley and the Sierra Nevada.

TRUMP from B2

tricity should not prevent him from seeing the larger issues involved in his political rise and fall.

Trump’s political victory in 2016 and loss in 2020 justifies a tragic view of history. “You can’t always get what you want” to borrow a phrase from the song. His four years as President were remarkable. He accomplished so much that he could rightfully claim that he kept his campaign promises -- unlike most recent presidents.

Trump delivered on deregulation, taxes, economic policies, relations with America’s allies and so much more.

Imagine his frustration when he increased his vote total over 2016 by eight million votes only to lose five battleground states -all of which had suspicious ballot

Thursday, January 6 - Wednesday, January 12, 2022 • Fresno County Supervisor Nathan Magsig (R), a former mayor and council member in Clovis.

• Elizabeth Heng, a Republican tech CEO who lost to Costa in 2018.

• Eric Garcia (No party preference), a disabled U.S. Marine who previously ran in the 2020 primary.

• Lourin Hubbard (D), an environmental justice and racial counting procedures. The 2020 election was successfully “rigged” as Mollie Hemingway documents so well in her book of that name because Trump’s campaign was one step behind the Democrats when they rewrote the election laws with collusive lawsuits and regulatory actions months before the election. The problem was aggravated when courts around the country, even the U.S. Supreme Court, refused to hear challenges to the unconstitutional changes both before and after the election, much less hold hearings for all the witnesses who could testify as to the election count “irregularities.”

Donald Trump has shown the way for the Republican Party to end its “capture” by corporate elitists and Washington insiders.

His America First policies are as threatening to their power as Reaganism was to the party poobahs

equity activist from Bakersfield.

END A POLITICAL CHAPTER Nunes’ resignation brings an end to more than two-decade political career that saw the son of a Tulare dairy family rise from being elected to the College of the Sequoias Board of Trustees to one of the most powerful politicians in the U.S. Congress.

A prodigious campaign fundraiser, Nunes had more campaign cash on hand than any House Republican when he stepped down.

He made regular fundraising appearances for his fellow GOP House members, raising millions for his colleagues. And through his political action committee, NewPAC, he gave direct contributions to 70 fellow Republicans, according to OpenSecrets, a nonpartisan watchdog group that

monitors political donations.

In the 2016 election, Nunes was one of the earliest Congressional supporters of Trump, who visited Tulare with the congressman during campaign fundraising events. Nunes was one of Trump’s most outspoken supporters during his administration, serving on his 2017 transition team and was one of Trump’s most vocal 2019 impeachment defenders.

in 1980, if not more so. The Republican Party’s majority for the next few decades could be built on a base of blue-collar voters and Hispanic and Black voters, if the Anti-Trump faction of the party were to be pushed to the sidelines.

Putting it differently, Trumpism could be larger than Donald Trump if he would let it. Governor Ron DeSantis in Florida, Congressman Jim Jordan in Ohio and others are ready to lead the party into the Promised Land of winning elections as frequently as a golden age from 1868 to 1916 when Grover Cleveland was the only Democrat to win the presidency.

If the analogy to Moses is not sufficient to persuade Donald Trump to throw his support behind candidates to carry on his legacy, he might find appealing a comparison to General George S. Patton. Early in the movie Patton

an aide pricked the great general’s elation from a victory over the German Afrika Korps when he told him that Field Marshal Erwin Rommel was temporarily in Germany and not in North Africa.

The aide softened the blow to Patton’s ego when he pointed out that Patton had defeated Rommel’s war plan and thus demonstrated that he was the superior strategist.

The inverse of this could be true in 2024, if Donald Trump would lead the way for “Trumpism” to prevail over his foes both within the Republican Party and among the socialist leftists in control of the Democrat Party. His brand of patriotic populism could be the decisive difference in bringing America back from the destructive anti-freedom and even anti-American policies of the Democrats.

Trump in 2016-20 had the abrasiveness one would expect from a

man from working-class Queens who pushed past the snobs of Manhattan to become a brand name in real estate development in New York City. A successful Republican candidate in 2024 would be someone carrying the Trump banner without the annoying tweets.

Donald Trump’s greatest legacy would be to transform the substance of Republican Party politics so successfully that it became a permanent and productive majority for several decades.

All he must do is sacrifice some of his ego to a greater cause, while claiming the credit for showing the way into a new promised land of an America restored to its place as the “shining city on the hill” to borrow from Ronald Reagan.

He could be the most transformational one-term president in American history. It’s his choice.

CALMATTERS from B2

nia Desert region, but too many communities don’t have the resources to travel to and experience the wonders of this area.

Furthermore, communities of color may not feel welcome or safe exploring the desert because staff and other visitors have historically been overwhelmingly white. Our leaders should dedicate additional funding for trail creation, bilingual signage and educational and outreach programs to help bring more diverse users to the desert.

Finally, funding the California Desert Conservation Program will help achieve 30×30’s conservation goals by protecting the largest still-intact ecosystem in the lower 48 states. The California Desert region is incredibly bio-diverse. In the Mojave Desert, there are approximately 210 species of plants that are found nowhere else on Earth. There are many iconic plants and animals that would

Thank you, Assemblymember Ramos, for leading the way to create the California Desert Conservation Program. I urge state lead-

ers to meaningfully invest in this program to help achieve our 30×30 goals. Setting this ambitious and smart framework demonstrates that our state continues to be a leader in fighting climate change and ensuring access to nature for all. Fully funding the California Desert Conservation Program can help us get there.

New Year Looks Bright for HHT EMILY RAND | CONTRIBUTED

A

s the new year begins, the Historic Hemet Theatre looks back on a year of record achievements and challenges… and forward to a bright future as a premier community arts center in the Inland Empire.

In 2021, with the COVID shutdown removing the first half of the year, HHT was still able to host 23 events with over 5500 guests and $150k in event revenue.

The year included a series of special events to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Hemet’s historic theatre.

In August, HHT hosted the first joint mixer for both valley Chambers of Commerce where City of Hemet Mayor Karlee Meyer presented the Foundation with a Key to the City.

Then in September, the Press Enterprise announced that HHT has become the number one music venue in the entire Inland Empire!

In October, the Hemet Heritage Foundation hosted a 100th Birthday Party with a presentation on the theatre’s history by CEO Susan Carrier and tours of the vintage movie house.

November highlighted the history of the valley with a showing of the film “Mr. Whittier’s Hemet” with a Q&A by the cast and crew.

Special concerts featuring Queen Nation and Ronstadt Revival filled the holiday season with music.

And New Year’s Eve saw the

return of the wild antics of “Rocky Horror New Year’s Eve.” The final event for the 100-year celebration will be next week at the Foundation’s spectacular “Vintage Vegas” Gala when legendary impressionist Rich Little will take the stage, live from Las Vegas! Festivities will include a “Champagne & Chocolate” dessert bar, open wine and beer bar, fun photo booth, prize wheel, raffle prizes, and a Grand Prize Drawing with a top prize of $1000 cash! Tickets for the Gala are $100 general admission and $200 for VIP seating at the foot of the stage.

Fundraising continues for future renovations including handicap seating and restrooms. Also planned is an expansion at the rear of the building to serve as a green room for performers. Most urgent on the list is the old A/C system. One of the system’s four units has failed and will need to be repaired or replaced before summer arrives.

COVID-related grants have provided over $250k in funding, but much more is needed to realize the full potential of Hemet’s vintage movie house.

Meanwhile, this week will be the kick-off for Season One of the 2022 Tribute Mania Concert Series. Saturday’s Tribute to The Bee Gees has been sold out for weeks. John Acosta and the rest of the Bee Gees Gold band are anxiously awaiting their return to the HHT spotlight.

Hudson served as a member of the Riverside Multi-Agency FEMA Urban Search and Rescue team. In the aftermath of the 9/11 attack, the team was dispatched to the World Trade Center and served ten days at Ground Zero. His presentation will

California launches mortgage relief program to help homeowners: Who qualifies, how to apply TRACY BLOOM | CONTRIBUTED

C

alifornia’s expansive mortgage relief program to help tens of thousands struggling homeowners is now accepting applications online .

The California Mortgage Relief Program aims to help up to 40,000 residents who fell behind on housing payments during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a news release from the state.

Eligible households can qualify for a maximum of $80,000 for their past due housing-related bills, with payments being sent directly to their mortgage provider or bank, the release stated. Homeowners won’t need to repay the state.

Altogether, $1 billion will be paid out, with funding coming from the federal American Rescue Plan that passed last March. California’s program was approved by the U.S. Department of Treasury on Dec. 20.

WHO IS ELIGIBLE California has set forth a series of requirements for residents who may be eligible to receive funds from the program. They include homeownership, income maximums and financial hardship related to the COVID-19 pandemic, according to the program’s website .

The criteria for homeowners includes the following:

• At least two payments are past due by Dec. 27, 2021 • The homeowner can’t have cash or assets equal to or greater than the money they need plus $20,000 (cash and assets do not include money in a retirement account, according to the website)

Beyond those, the applicant needs to meet at least one of these qualifications: • They receive public assistance • They are severely housing burdened • They have no alterna-

tive mortgage workout options through their mortgage servicer All eligibility requirements can be found here.

HOW TO APPLY Homeowners can apply online by going to the website CaMortgageRelief.org First, the application will ask a series of questions to establish eligibility for the relief funds. Once that’s completed and it’s determined the person possibly qualifies, they will be able to begin filling out the application.

During the process, they

may have to provide certain documents related to their household income and housing payments. The paperwork include mortgage and bank statements, utility bills and income documentation like paystubs or tax returns, according to the website.

Those who do not have access to a computer or internet can get help filling out the application, either by contacting their mortgage provider or calling a a HUD-certified housing counselor at 1-800-5694287.

There’s technically no

deadline to apply for the mortgage relief. The program will end once all funds are allocated — something that’s projected to happen by 2025, the website says.

A high volume of applications is expected, meaning it could take several weeks after applying for the money to be approved and sent, according to the state.

Full details about the program can be found here.

The website also features a comprehensive “frequently asked questions” section for those looking for even more information.

EVIDENCE from A1

Ranch at 5:39 p.m. and soon realized the victim had "unexplained injuries."

First responders called in homicide detectives and secured a crime scene.

“I've got to file a complaint against the sheriff 's office because they leave her body for a day and a half in that rain and snow, and it just pisses me off,” said Harper during the telephone conversation. “I’ve never seen inhumane treatment like that.”

Detectives questioned Harper. No arrest was made. The autopsy results and toxicology testing on Newkirk's remains are still pending.

At the time of her death, Newkirk was living about 10 miles away from the Bonita Vista Ranch (located at 58111 Bonita Vista Road in Mountain Center). She was renting a house on Tool Box Springs Road in Garner Valley, a property also owned by Dia Abrams at the time of her disappearance.

As trustee of the Dia Abrams estate, Harper has been managing both properties, as well as a third property in the area owned

by Abrams.

Family members said Newkirk was paying rent to Harper. She would spend the night at the Garner Valley house, and then go up to the Bonita Vista Ranch and take care of the horses during the day.

Newkirk was having mechanical problems with her red, 2002 Volvo sedan, ac-

cording to family members, so Harper may have been driving her on occasion.

Riverside Sheriff detectives did not serve a search warrant on the house Newkirk was renting, according to family members, who found a handwritten journal when they packed up her belongings.

“Dear Harper,” Newkirk wrote in the journal entry weeks before her death and, apparently, while Harper was out of town.

“I feel like we have gotten kinda on different pages lately,” Newkirk wrote in her journal. “With you gone tho I do miss you but I'm thinking things are going to be different when you are back. Not sure who will initiate it but I'm feeling it big time."

Harper, 72, was Newkirk's boss on the ranch but her journal entry sounds more personal, especially when she writes about Harper going online and dating women.

“I feel like you're a computer dog like a high class [gigolo]. Anyhow you really do sleep with as many females as you can & you tell all girls what they want to hear & you tell them all basically the same thing,” Newkirk wrote.

“I really am feeling very strange about the always going to miss me comment in the text a few days ago?

What the hell was that about & you never did elaborate? Anyhow, I don't like the way that sounds. Not a bit. It's weird,” she wrote.

Parts of Harper's recorded telephone conversation also sound personal.

“I wrote this tribute to Jodi. I just wanted to read it to you,” Harper said during the phone call with the family member.

“God knows we all loved her. Recently she said, 'You will miss me when I'm gone,' and I responded, ‘Why would I miss you sweet girl with all the pain you bring.' And Jodi said, ‘I do nothing but good for you and when I'm gone you will miss me every day.’ Jodi I do miss you, and you're right, I will miss you every day,” Harper said during the telephone call.

Harper declined to comment on the nature of his relationship with Newkirk.

Via text message, Harper wrote to CBS 8 that he has not dated online for years, and currently he does not have a working computer.

Riverside Sheriff investigators have not named anyone as a suspect in the death of Jodi Newkirk.

Below is the full transcript of Jodi Newkirk's “Dear Harper” journal entry: "Dear Harper, So I know I shouldn’t be writing this down & your [sic] most likely not going to read it anyway. Sometimes it really helps to vent. And Boy I have a ton to say about everything obviously. With you being gone it’s very hard for me to feel OK with everything. I need to communicate & in person is always best. I feel like we have gotten kinda on different pages lately.

Probably because I feel like you’re a computer dog like a high class gigilo (sp?). Anyhow you really do sleep with as many females as you can & you tell all girls what they want to hear & you tell them all basically the same thing.

I listen to you & I really am feeling very strange about the always going to miss me comment in the text a few days ago? What the hell was that about & you never did elaborate? Anyhow I don’t like the way that sounds.

Not a bit. It’s weird. With you gone tho I do miss you but I’m thinking things are going to be different when you are back. Not sure who will initiate it but I’m feeling it big time."

Narrowing the digital divide with pandemic benefits JOSEPH HAYES, DARRIYA STARR & NIU GAO | CALMATTERS

T

he Emergency Broadband Benefit program offers a subsidy each month toward broadband service for eligible households.

The COVID-19 pandemic has heightened the need for universal broadband access. Without reliable high-speed internet, it is difficult for students to attend online classes and for parents to work at home.

Many California households struggle to afford internet services, particularly in low-income communities and communities of color. To help bridge this digital divide, the federal government established the Emergency Broadband Benefit program last May. The program offers a subsidy of up to $50 per month toward broadband service for eligible households – those earning up to 135% of the federal poverty level (or about $35,000 for a family of four) or who qualify for other federal safety net programs.

The recently enacted Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act extends the Emergency Broadband Benefit program indefinitely, with a subsidy of $30 per month. However, preliminary data show that the program is not reaching many eligible households. Nationwide, only about one in five eligible households were enrolled as of Oct. 31. This means that 26 million eligible households

are not receiving the subsidy.

California’s 24% take-up rate – the percentage of households enrolled in the program out of all eligible households – is slightly higher than other large, diverse states, such as Florida (22%), New York (21%) and Texas (19%). However, only 9 of California’s 58 counties have takeup rates above 50%, and its median county take-up rate is only 27%.

Take-up rate varies widely across counties: it is only 8% in Marin, Nevada and Sierra counties, while it is effectively 100% in Imperial County and quite high in Merced (84%) and Kern (77%) counties.

Although these low rates are cause for concern, counties with higher poverty rates tend to have higher Emergency Broadband Benefit participation. This correlation is promising because the increased

access to the internet in high-poverty counties could boost those local economies.

Moreover, populous counties with high poverty rates are more likely to have larger shares of households enrolled in the Emergency Broadband Benefit program than do smaller counties with similar poverty rates. This indicates that the number of participating households statewide is probably higher than the take-up percentages alone suggest. For example, Los Angeles County has a 46% take-up rate, while the take-up rate is lower in smaller counties with similar poverty rates – such as Santa Barbara (26%) and Yolo (22%).

Several factors contribute to the low take-up rate. First, awareness is very low: nationwide, only 23% of adults have heard “a lot” or “some”

about the Emergency Broadband Benefit program. Second, many households may be discouraged by the multi-step application process, which requires them to first apply to the government and then arrange for a participating internet service provider to apply the subsidy. Third, some internet service providers initially required enrollees to upgrade their existing data plans to more expensive plans, so some households may have decided not to apply for fear of higher bills if they become ineligible or if the program ends.

There are several ways to improve the Emergency Broadband Benefit program: • Use existing networks and systems to boost awareness. Federal, state and local governments could work with community-based or-

ganizations – trusted messengers in historically marginalized communities – to raise awareness. They could also explore ways to automatically notify and/or enroll eligible households through the Federal Communications Commission’s current subsidy program, other safety-net programs and school lunch programs.

• Streamline the application process and service delivery. Leveraging existing data, resources and information pathways could simplify enrollment. The pandemic-EBT card, used to supplement household food budgets, is a model for delivering much-needed support that households can use with any participating internet service provider.

• Limiting household broadband costs to a percentage of income. The Emergency Broadband Benefit subsidy does not cover all broadband costs, which average $68/month nationwide and may increase with newer technology. Policymakers could consider replicating the design of existing housing subsidy programs, which cover costs above a percentage of household income.

Closing the digital divide is critical to improving educational and economic opportunity. While the state recently approved investments intended to narrow this divide in the long term, short-term strategies such as the Emergency Broadband Benefit are also needed to address current gaps.

5 Cryptos That Could Surpass Shiba Inu in 2022 EMMA NEWBERY | CONTRIBUTED

2021 was an extraordinary year for many cryptocurrencies, and none more so than meme coins like Shiba Inu (SHIB) . Shiba Inu launched in August 2020 and joined the top 10 cryptos by market cap in October 2021. The coin that was initially touted as a “Dogecoin killer” briefly overtook Doge before once again falling behind the top dog.

Both Dogecoin and Shiba Inu are meme coins themed around the now-famous Japanese dog breed. Indeed, Shiba Inu is one of many pet coins in Dogecoin’s litter -- Dogecoin also spawned tokens like Floki Inu (FLOKI), Husky Coin (HUSKY), and Baby Doge Coin (BabyDoge).

But Shiba Inu is one of the most successful. It rose over 800% in October on the back of Elon Musk’s Shiba Inu puppy and a petition to get Robinhood to list the coin . With a market cap of $18 billion, it’s now in 13th place in the crypto charts.

The trouble with meme coins?

They are even less predictable than the rest of the cryptocurrency market. A coin might soar on the back of a mention on social media -- but that’s not something you can predict or control. Coins with solid fundamentals are a much safer bet.

And we’ve got five amazing ones that could overtake Shiba Inu in 2022.

1. ELROND (EGLD) Elrond is one of several Ethereum (ETH) alternatives that are well positioned for 2022. It may not sound as exciting as Shiba Inu, but bear in mind that Solana (SOL)

-- another smart contract platform -- was one of the top performers of 2021 .

Smart contracts are tiny pieces of self-executing code that live on the blockchain. Ethereum was the original smart contract crypto , but is now struggling with network congestion and high fees. As a result, various platforms that are faster and cheaper are taking market share.

It’s very early days for Elrond and there are a lot of contenders in this race. But if it can attract developers, this crypto could well surpass Shiba Inu. 2. SERUM (SRM) One of the reasons smart contract platforms are so in demand is that they power the booming decentralized finance (DeFi) industry. There are two caveats to buying DeFi coins: We don’t know what will happen in DeFi next year -- regulation could have a big impact on the industry.

The decentralized finance industry changes extremely quickly.

A coin that proves successful today may fall out of favor tomorrow.

That said, Serum is an interesting option because it’s the utility token for a decentralized exchange (DEX) that’s built on Solana’s network. This means users can benefit from Solana’s speedy, low fee transactions as they explore the various decentralized finance projects being built on Solana.

3. LIVEPEER (LPT) Decentralization -- taking the middleman out of transactions -is one of the exciting things about blockchain technology. It doesn’t only apply to finance. Livepeer

brings this decentralized approach to video streaming. Its website says that 80% of all internet bandwidth is consumed by video streaming and streaming is expensive.

The costly part of video streaming is the process of reformatting the video for different devices and bandwidths, called transcoding.

Rather than investing in costly hardware, Livepeer lets individuals contribute their spare bandwidth to the transcoding process. They earn LPT tokens and Livepeer can transcode videos in a more affordable way.

4. VECHAIN (VET) VeChain offers another real world use of crypto. It uses blockchain technology to monitor and streamline every step in a supply chain. For example, it partners with Walmart to trace the provenance of certain product lines like fresh meat and vegetables. If there’s an outbreak of, say, e-coli, it can be quickly traced back to the source.

That same tech is being used by luxury goods manufacturers

to prevent counterfeiting and increase consumer confidence. Other companies are using it to track their carbon consumption at every step of the supply chain.

5. WILDER WORLD (WILD) Wilder World is a riskier play than other coins on this list -- it’s in 260th place and isn’t yet listed on many major crypto exchanges. However, a list of cryptos that might perform well in 2022 would be nothing if it didn’t mention at least one metaverse token.

Wilder World is a 5D metaverse built on the Ethereum network.

It’s a space where people can create and trade non-fungible tokens (NFTs) . NFTs are digital certificates of ownership that change the way we own items online. And NFTs play a big part in Wilder World’s metaverse and in the platform’s play-to-earn games.

CAN SHIBA INU RECLAIM ITS HIGHS? The truth is that nobody knows what Shiba Inu might be able to do.

Dogecoin spent years as the industry’s pet rock before it surprised seasoned investors by leaping up and licking them in the face (or more accurately, jumping into the top 20 cryptos by market cap and staying there). The reason its success was surprising is that Dogecoin deliberately has no utility.

Shiba Inu has some utility, even though utility isn’t what fuels meme coins. Meme coins are powered by communities and influencers. Shiba Inu does have a solid community, also known as the ShibArmy -- which is one of the reasons for its success. But it doesn’t really have any major celebrity fans, though Elon Musk does have a Shiba Inu puppy.

Most of the coins above are available from top cryptocurrency exchanges. What sets them apart and gives them a better chance of success in the long term is that they have utility. Be aware that there’s a chance the whole crypto market could fall or an individual coin gets hacked. Proceed with caution and only invest money you can afford to lose.

BUY AND SELL CRYPTOCURRENCIES ON AN EXPERT-PICKED EXCHANGE There are hundreds of platforms around the world that are waiting to give you access to thousands of cryptocurrencies. And to find the one that’s right for you, you’ll need to decide what features matter most to you.

To help you get started, our independent experts have sifted through the options to bring you some of our best cryptocurrency exchanges for 2021. Check out the list he re and get started on your crypto journey, today.
