t sits back from the street. As a matter of fact, one might not even notice it if he weren't looking for it. It is Valley Restart, one of the major shelters for homeless and down-and-out citizens. This week I had an opportunity to interview the Executive Director, Javier Lopez. He has only been at his job for nine months or so. A very modest man with the humility of a Saint, we got right to it.

Q. How long have you been operating this place?

A. Since August of last year.

Q. Didn't this used to be the YMCA? A. No. The YMCA was at this location, but we did not replace it.

It was here beside our operation.

It was here from the 1980s until 1995, I believe.

Q. Who did you replace here?

A. Linda Rogers. She was head of Restart for eighteen years. I came on board with the intent of taking it to the next level, which is what we are trying to do. We've done a lot of rehabilitation to the building. Expanded our network throughout the city and community. We're looking forward to expanding our shelter space. We have six new pallet homes coming in soon, maybe next week.

We have separate stand-alone bathrooms and showers that will be located to the east here, next to the office. They come in prefab. We hope to expand that even further as we see a need for more housing for the homeless, especially the single males.

Q. You cater mostly to families.

A. Families with dependent children. We also accept a limited amount of single women - all for 90 days. These are folks who are ready to move into permanent housing. They've had hard times and just need a boost to get restarted.

Q. What is your current ca-

pacity?

A. Currently we have 15 bedrooms and 49 beds.

Q. And the pallets?

A. The pallets will add to our shelter space.

Q. What's the average time people stay here. I'm sure they are not all 90 days?

A. Most of them already have employment. Those who don't, we help them with employment or job placement leads. If they need resume help, we can assist them with that. You know families can be single males with children. We also provide case management throughout their stay.

We have wrap-around services available because we are in close communication with businesses and churches and other community facilities.

Q. Mental health?

A. Oh yes. We are well connected with facilities that provide mental health and continuing health with Riverside County. We can also refer them to other areas if they are looking to locate elsewhere in the county. Also we have good relations with Work Force Development.

Q. Like a living condition?

A. Exactly and we feed them three meals a day. We also

A spectacular buffet offering a variety of fresh foods lined the Event Center lobby.

Guests enjoyed a feast of fine dining capped with an over-the-top dessert bar pleasing those with even the most discerning sweet tooth.

The entertainment spectacular attracted an enthusiastic audience to the Soboba Casino Resort Event Center on June 17.

Co-hosts Andrew Vallejos and Catherine “Cat” Modesto kept the show moving while soliciting comments from judges and others after each performance. Everyone was raving about the quality of the acts and had many positive things to say, even for those that were competing against the nonprofit they were there to support.

“I really enjoyed the show behind the show,” Tony Davalos, who drove in from Cathedral City again this year to support the event, said. “Watching Andrew’s face as he reacts to things unfolding live on stage is so much fun. Between him and the acts themselves, it’s impossible to look away; thoroughly entertaining.”

This year’s performers went into the competition vying for cash prizes that the Soboba Foundation members decided to double right before the show started, giving the groups even more incentive to pull out all the stops.

2 boys allegedly killed by adoptive parents were illegally taken from mother, suit alleges GREGORY YEE | CONTRIBUTED

T

he biological family of two boys who authorities say were killed by their adoptive parents have filed a federal lawsuit alleging civil rights violations and wrongful death.

Ryan Dean and Dana Moorer, the boys' biological mother and grandmother, allege that the children were unlawfully taken from their mother and placed in the care of a couple who now face murder charges in their deaths.

Authorities conspired with the adoptive parents "to deny plaintiffs' several requests to reunify their family with Cinsere and Classic Pettus before they were murdered," according to the lawsuit.

Dean and Moorer are seeking $40 million in general damages.

The case, filed Friday, comes

about three months after the Kern County district attorney's office charged the boys' adoptive parents , Trezell and Jacqueline West, with two counts of second-degree murder and felony child abuse, among other counts.

Classic Pettus, 4, and Cinsere Pettus, 3, were reported missing from the couple's backyard in California City on Dec. 21, 2020.

The Wests told investigators that the boys, who had been renamed Orrin and Orson West, vanished while playing in the yard, Kern County Dist. Atty. Cynthia Zimmer said.

An investigation determined that the boys died three months before the Wests told investigators that they were missing, Zimmer said.

Their bodies have not been

MT. SAN JACINTO COLLEGE CELEBRATES GROUNDBREAKING OF STEM BUILDING AT ITS MENIFEE VALLEY CAMPUS The $49.7 million Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) building is expected to open in 2024.

The 41,865-square-foot, two-story building will feature laboratory and multi-use, computer-based instructional areas. The ability to provide distance learning will also be designed into all of the multiuse instructional spaces.

"This project will truly have a lasting impact on our students, some of whom will be the STEM leaders of tomorrow," Dr. Roger Schultz, MSJC Superintendent/President, told the more than 100 people in attendance. "We have a lot happening right now at the Menifee Valley

Campus and we cannot wait to celebrate the opening of this and our new Kinesiology and Athletics Complex with the community. This is an exciting time at MSJC." MSJC's voter-approved Measure AA facilities bond will fund half of the STEM project while the state's Prop. 51 will fund the other half. California voters approved Prop. 51 in November 2016 to authorize the state to sell $2 billion in general obligation bonds for community college projects.

Registration for MSJC's Fall 2022 semester begins July 5. Classes begin Aug. 15.

alRTA Division 33 (Hemet/San Jacinto) recently honored its 2022 Scholarship recipients at a celebratory luncheon for the local graduating seniors and their families. The $1000 scholarship is granted to seniors at both the comprehensive and alternative high schools in the Hemet, San Jacinto and Nuview School Districts who have plans to become a public school teacher. To qualify for the scholarship, students must have a 3.0+ GPA in their junior and senior years, and good citizenship at school and in the community. Other considerations include extracurricular/ co-curricular school activities, community service and activities, and work/ volunteer experiences.

This year’s $1000 Scholarship recipients are as follows: Miryam Barba, Hemet High School; Jeyra Bernal, West Valley High School, Kasedie Campos, Mountain View High School; Maggy Granados and Joseph Salazar, San Jacinto High School; Brody Miller, Tahquitz High School; Kylie Rosson, Hamilton High School; and Leandrew Torres, Nuview Bridge Early College High School.

Hemet High senior and first-generation college student Miryam Barba has always loved all aspect of English – novels, dramas, poetry, and writing – and plans to attend Cal State Channel Islands and major in secondary English. Barba says that “English just felt natural to me and has always held a place in my heart.”

West Valley grad Jeyra Bernal plans to attend UC San Diego with the goal of becoming an elementary dual-language school teacher. “I believe that one’s childhood is an important part of a student’s life, and being able to make even

the slightest difference can have a huge impact on their future,” Bernal explains.

Kasedie Campos of Mountain View High School says that she is “very dedicated to becoming a college student and eventu-

ally becoming a high school English teacher. I always admired teachers and wanted to become one myself.”

She plans to attend Mt. San Jacinto College in the fall.

School were honored with the scholarship. Maggy Granados says, “I plan to continue my education at Cal Baptist University and follow my dreams of becoming a 3rd grade teacher.

I want to live out my dream of teaching young children that anything is possible and being one of their biggest inspirations will forever be on my ‘bucket list.’” Fellow graduate Joseph Salazar plans to attend the University of Redlands and major in US History.

Salazar explains, “I want to make an impact on students the way my teachers made an impact on me.”

Tahquitz High School senior Brody Miller has not yet determined which college he will attend in the fall, but he knows he wants to teach 4th grade and says “the chance to make a change in the lives of future generations is my ultimate dream.”

Kylie Rosson of Hamilton High School plans to attend Cal State San Marcos in the fall and major in art. Her goal is to then earn her teaching credential and “return to Hemet Unified School District as a high school art teacher.”

Nuview Bridge Early College High School graduate Leandrew Torres is anxious to pursue a career as an educator after graduating from either the University of Redlands or UC Riverside. “I want to become a type of teacher where students feel free to talk to me, where there is constant participation, and where students don’t feel limited to express themselves,” Torres explains.

Each year CalRTA Division 33 awards up to ten $1000 scholarships to local outstanding students who plan to pursue a career in public education. Division 33 also awards up to 20 $100 “no strings attached” teacher grants to local teachers who apply. For more information about CalRTA, visit calrta.org or div33.calrta.org.

STUDENT LOANS President Joe Biden could decide the future of student loan forgiveness within weeks. That said, the White House has denied that Biden has decided to cancel $10,000 of student loans for borrowers. While Biden has said he will announce his decision soon, there’s no clear indication of how much student loan

debt Biden will cancel or if he will enact any wide-scale student loan cancellation.

If Biden cancels more student debt, this is how much could be eliminated.

STUDENT LOAN from A2

is the amount of student debt that Biden consistently has referenced since he ran for president in 2020. While Biden consistently called on Congress to pass legislation to cancel student loans, the U.S. Senate hasn’t even held a vote on wide-scale student loan forgiveness.

According to the Federal Reserve, $10,000 of student loan forgiveness would: • forgive a total of $321 billion of federal student loans; • eliminate the entire balance for 11.8 million borrowers; • cancel 30.5% of student loans in student loan delinquency or student loan default before the Covid-19 student loan payment pause; and • the average student loan borrower would receive $8,478 in student loan forgiveness.

2. BIDEN CANCELS $50,000 OF STUDENT LOANS Alternatively, Biden could offer a summer surprise and cancel $50,000 of student loans for borrowers. Biden has never supported $50,000 of student loan cancellation, despite support from Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY).

That said, progressive Democrats in Congress are

have more than 40 other non-profits and church groups and individuals who come in every single day and cook dinner between four and six P.M. Q. So it is a real community affair?

A. Yes. Pretty much it is an excellent set-up actually.

Q. What kinds of donations do you take from the public?

A. I've had folks dropping off blankets & jackets.

making a renewed push for Biden to cancel $50,000 of student loans. According to the Federal Reserve, $50,000 of student loan forgiveness would: • forgive a total of $904 billion of federal student loans; • eliminate the entire federal student loan balance for 29.9 million borrowers; • cancel 77% of student loans in student loan delinquency or student loan default before the Covid-19 student loan payment pause; and • the average student loan borrower would receive $23,856 in student loan forgiveness.

(The U.S. Department of Education has estimated that $50,000 of student loan cancellation would eliminate the entire federal student loan balance for 36 million student loan borrowers, which is more than the Federal Reserve estimated).

qualifies for student loan forgiveness. Biden could adjust this potential income cap upward or downward, or as some supporters have urged, or eliminate an income cap so that all federal student loan borrowers qualify for student loan forgiveness.

3. BIDEN CANCELS MORE STUDENT LOAN DEBT Biden, who has canceled $25 billion of student loans, could choose an amount other than $10,000 or $50,000 of student loan debt. That said, he’s unlikely to cancel all student loans, which would cost $1.7 trillion, as Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) proposed. The Biden administration also has floated income caps of $150,000 per borrower, which could limit who

STUDENT LOANS: NEXT STEPS Biden hasn’t released any formal plan on wide-scale student loan forgiveness.

So, there is no guarantee of how much student loan forgiveness to expect. That said, $10,000 could be considered a base case scenario. Critics say wide-scale student loan forgiveness is a terrible idea for at least five reasons. For example, with high inflation and the threat of a recession, Biden could skip widescale student loan cancellation if voters think it could increase inflation.

Temporary student loan relief ends on August 31, 2022, and Biden may wait until then to announce his decision on student loan forgiveness. With student loan relief ending soon, now is the time to evaluate all your options to pay off student loans. Here are some popular ways to pay off student loans faster: • Student loan refinancing (lower interest rate + lower payment) • Income-driven repayment (lower payment) • Student loan forgiveness (federal student loans)

Q. Clothing?

A. Clothing has to be brand new. Folks come and get sizes. Clothes, shoes. For instance, the Four Seasons donated a lot of stuff - paper plates, napkins, towels, bed linens, toothbrushes.

Hemet has been very caring to make sure we can do our job. They gave us the green light to bring in those pallet homes.

Valley Restart didn't just pop up out of nowhere. It has a history, for those who are newly situated in our Valley.

It all began back in

1941 as a bunkhouse for farm workers, then there was the YMCA and it has progressed to the all-encompassing family shelter that it has become. It is undoubtedly not what is usually thought of as a homeless shelter. Its standards are as high as those in any home. It has been calculated that those who leave the shelter to more stable housing average up to 90%.

That's solid in any situation.

Valley Restart was incorporated in 1989 as a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation.

CLERGY CORNER

Miss the Mark SUSAN BECKETT | DWELLING PLACE CITY CHURCH

“I told you so!” We’ve all said it at one time or another.

According to Gore Vidal, the four most beautiful words in our language are “I told you so.” But if you check in with A. Waldman, “There’s nothing quite as annoying as the phrase, ‘I told you so.’” So which is it? That probably depends on whether you’re a parent, wagging your finger in your teen’s face after their repeated zooming-around bought them a speeding ticket, or - a more serious issue involving some type of personal calamity.

Consider this: raccoons are cute as the dickens! But, trying to keep one as a pet can be dangerous. At about 24 months, they go through a glandular change and often attack their owners. Since a 30-pound raccoon can be equal to a 100-pound dog in a fight, it’s best not to keep them as pets. One gal mentioned this to her friend who owned a pet raccoon. She listened politely to the warning but chose to ignore it. “It will be different for me,” she said. “Bandit would never hurt me.”

Three months later, this raccoon owner underwent plastic surgery for facial injuries after her raccoon attacked her for no apparent reason. Bandit was later released back into the wild.

“I told you so” could have come into play here - but the damage was done - the warning had been ignored.

There’s a terrific little verse in Hebrews 10 which advises us to “encourage each other, all the more as we ‘see the day’ of Christ’s return approaching.” That tiny word “see” there, in the Greek, means to “beware” or “take heed.” The writer is trying to warn us that there are things

we should be seeing in the last days that we should pay attention to as signs of the end times.

In 2 Timothy, it was prophesied that in the last days violence would become more widespread - worse than it had ever been - even worse than the events that were occurring in the Roman Empire at the time. Today, Romans are actually remembered in part for their bloodshed and barbarism. But how will history remember our own generation with its love of bloodshed that seems to dominate movies, TV, music, video games and the internet?! Warning: last days?

While Christians debate whether or not we are living in the last days, signs of the times are slowly emerging - one after the other. It’s like boiling the frog - barely noticeable until it’s too late.

Revelation 13 discloses that during the Tribulation, “All people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, are to receive a mark on their right hands or foreheads, so that they cannot buy or sell unless they have the mark.” This was written around 43 A.D. by the way.

Truly spot on!

Are you acquainted with todays “microchip?” Many believe these chips are an early version of the Mark of the Beast that will be needed to buy, sell, travel, and make a living. Currently, there are between 30,000 to 50,000 people who have already received chip implants in their hands. It’s “boiling” people to view this as being something completely normal.

The chips are as tiny as a grain of rice and are used today to buy, sell, unlock doors, store medical & banking information, purchase tickets — all with the wave of a hand. As they promote: “Microchips in Humans -

SUSAN BECKETT | Courtesy Photo.

Passports for Everything,” one theologian put it this way: “In a not too distant future, law-abiding citizens will only be able to engage in commerce by means of such a chip.” Warning: last days?

There’s a kicky story told about some teens who discovered they could get high by spraying a certain cleaner into a plastic bag and then breathing the fumes.

The label on the can clearly warned of death or serious injury if the product was inhaled - but some teens ignored the warning, leading to at least one death.

The company wanted to make the warning label larger but decided to do something more drastic. “What do kids worry about more than death or injury?” they asked themselves. “How they look, of course!” So they wrote the warning to say that sniffing the product could cause hair loss or facial disfigurement.

It doesn’t, but it scared the target audience enough so that continued misuse of their product stopped.

Warnings! Ours to heed or ignore! As Jesus predicted in Matthew 16:3 - “You find it easy enough to forecast the weather - why can’t you read the signs of the times?”

Warning: End times ahead.

Proceed with caution!

n June 16th, the U.S. Senate passed comprehensive toxic exposure legislation, the Sergeant First Class Heath Robinson Honoring our Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxics Act of 2021, or the Honoring our PACT Act, with provisions authored

by Congressman Raul Ruiz, M.D. (CA-36) to get veterans suffering from burn pit exposure the care they urgently need.

lish a presumption of service connection between veterans’ military service

and 23 diseases and rare cancers.

Since the death of

his constituent Jennifer Kepner – an Air Force medic who developed pancreatic cancer as a result of her service in Iraq – Dr. Ruiz has spearheaded efforts over the years to get burn pit-exposed veterans the care they need. The Honoring our PACT Act also includes Dr. Ruiz’s bill, the Jennifer Kepner HOPE Act, to expand eligibility for care to veterans who participated in a toxic exposure risk activity while serving on active duty, active duty for training, or inactive duty training.

“I enthusiastically applaud the Senate passage of the bipartisan Honoring our PACT Act,” said Dr. Ruiz. “The fight for

presumptive benefits for veterans suffering from their burn pit exposure has been an uphill battle and one that I have led for years in memory of Cathedral City veteran Jennifer Kepner who died from pancreatic cancer due to her exposure to toxic burn pits. Today is a moment that is years in the making and brings us closer than ever before to getting burn pit-exposed veterans the benefits and care they have earned and deserve.

I look forward to quickly sending this historic legislation to President Biden’s desk.”

Prior to the vote, Dr. Ruiz took to the House floor to urge the Senate to pass the legislation.

California EDD recovers more than $1 billion in fraudulently-paid unemployment funds CBS | CONTRIBUTED

C

alifornia’s Employment Develepment Department (EDD) has recovered more than one billion dollars in unemployment insurance funds that were fraudulently paid out since the start of the pandemic.

In a press statement Tuesday, the EDD said the funds were located on some 780,000 inactivated benefit cards and will return to the federal government because the fraudulent claims were filed with the Pandemic Unemployment Assistance program.

The EDD also said it has recently thwarted and additional 47,000 potentially fraudulent claims worth up to $560 million. Last year the department hired a EDD fraud special counsel to work with law enforcement and prosecutors in the state to recover stolen funds.

In January, the EDD acknowledged it had paid at least $20 billion in fraudulent claims during the pandemic. Legitimate providers and claimants have

been ensnared in the mass freeze of funds and have had to go through additional verification procedures before payments can resume.

The department was also dogged by customer service troubles, with personnel slow to respond to phone calls and illequipped to handle the flood of complaints about missing funds or claims that were delayed or rejected. Also in January,

EDD Director Rita Saenz stepped down and was replaced by deputy director Nancy Farias, the third EDD chief in the last two years.

“Fraudsters and criminal organizations ripped off California, along with every other state, during one of the worst crises in history - we’re taking aggressive

action to return that money to the taxpayers,” said Governor Gavin Newsom in a prepared statement Tuesday.

The EDD said Tuesday that within the past 15 months, there have been more than 1,500 fraud investigations, 467 arrests and $3.5 million seized in the counties reporting

LETTER TO THE EDITOR The letter shown below was originally sent to the editor of the Washington Post and was published on June 21, 2022.

What the U.S. can do to mitigate global air pollution To the Editor: The June 16 news article “Study: Air pollution reduces global life expectancy by more than two years” made the startling point that breathing dirty air has more of an impact on global life span than alcohol, cigarettes, terrorism or conflict. Think this is just a problem for the more crowded and less-developed parts of the world? A study conducted at the University of Wisconsin at Madison showed that eliminating air pollution caused by burning fossil fuels would prevent 50,000 premature deaths and provide more than $600 billion in health benefits each year in the United States.

We hear a lot about the costs of fighting climate change, but much less attention is paid to the benefits. Drastically reducing the use of fossil fuels will not only prevent — or at least mitigate — the global catastrophe of climate change. It also will give everyone cleaner air, cleaner water and improved health — and maybe even a few more years of life.

Some Things That Try One’s Patience RUSTY STRAIT | SENIOR REPORTER

A

t a time when folks’ nerves are on edge to start with, there are issues that just send one over the top. For instance: 1. Thee must be a dozen or more corners in Hemet where the stationary stop signs are blocked by tree foliage. Code enforcement is right down your throat if someone puts graffiti on the outside of your business, but when it comes to the trees that block stop signs, they are blind as a bat. For instance: At the stop sign at the southeast corner of Harvard street and Central, there is a tree that completely obscures the stop sign in the summer. I have personally reported this to code enforcement several times and even brought

it up to a couple of city council members. I drive that street every day and if I didn’t know there was a stop sign, I would sail right through. Someday there is going to be a wreck at that corner with injuries or worse. If the victims need a witness, count me in.

2. Animal Control - Dogs of all varieties roam the streets of Hemet, both day and night. They will come into your yard to do their business. A lady called me last week and asked what the press could do about it.

She opened her front door and two full-grown pit bulls greeted her with snarls. If you don’t get your fenced-in dog his shots on time, you can bet they’ll be sending you notice with possible fines, as to veterinarians and pet shelters. They urge you to have your male cats neu-

Sure, if you have the money.

To spay a female cat costs up to $300. Why doesn’t the city or county have a clinic where this can be done at a much cheaper cost. It is called “Animal Control.”

You can’t control the animal population if the animals continue propagating. Our feral cat population is overwhelming.

Five Reasons to Impeach Joe Biden ED BRODOW | CONTRIBUTED

A

merican has a twotiered justice system.

If you are liberal and vote Democratic, you can get away with anything.

Hillary Clinton is proof of that. If you are conservative, Republican, and a Trump supporter, you can’t even get away with scratching your own behind. But for argument’s sake, let’s suppose we have a single standard for justice. In that case, here are five unassailable reasons that justify impeaching President Biden. This is not meant to be a complete list, but it will do for starters.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR The letter shown below was originally sent to the editor of the Washington Post and was published on June 20, 2022.

How to end the war in Ukraine To the Editor: Regarding the June 15 news article “Russia’s fuel export revenue soared in 100 days since invasion, report says”: The current policy of sending weapons to Ukraine while continuing to fund the Russian forces through the purchase of oil and gas allows the Ukrainians to continue the war, but not end it. The problem with the Western sanctions is not that they are not tough enough, but that they are not long enough.

The Russians’ biggest fear is a long-term lowering of the price of Russian oil. The biggest threat to the price of Russian oil is Western energy production. Oil companies, which lost billions of dollars during the coronavirus pandemic, are reluctant to increase production to make up for lost Russian oil, because they believe that as soon as the fighting stops, we will press the reset button and go back to business as usual.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is not worried for the same reason.

The way to make Mr. Putin fear the sanctions is to guarantee that the sanctions will be long-term. The free world must agree to impose large tariffs on Russian oil and gas and include these in a treaty. This treaty must specify a long period of time (at least 10 years). This type of agreement would give energy producers (oil, gas and clean energy producers) an incentive to increase production. The threat of this type of long-term agreement would hopefully spur Russia to end the war. If not, then the agreement itself would be devastating to the Russian economy.

1. Biden’s corrupt activities constitute treason.

Evidence exists that during Joe Biden’s tenure as vice president, access to his

office was sold by Biden’s son Hunter to China, Russia, Ukraine, and others willing to cough up huge sums of money. American foreign policy was impacted by those transactions. Biden himself bragged openly that he stopped Ukraine from investigating Hunter in return for a billion dollars in U.S. aid.

Where is the evidence of Biden’s corruption? First there is the New York Post article that broke the story.

Then there is Peter Schweizer’s well-researched book, Secret Empires, that traces the Biden Crime Family’s complicity with the corrupt Ukrainian energy company Burisma. Next, we have the incriminating emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop. Let’s not forget the video where Biden brags about extorting favors from Ukraine. And finally, there is the testimo-

ny of former Biden business partner, Tony Bobulinski.

Bobulinski’s testimony refuted Joe Biden’s denial that he was aware of Hunter’s slimy business ventures. Joe knew about his son’s dealings, participated in them, profited from them, and lied to the American people about it.

2. Biden’s violation of U.S. immigration law constitutes treason.

Biden has abused his office by violating the laws he has sworn to defend. He has undermined national security by opening the southern border to millions of unvetted, low-skilled, uneducated, third-world economic migrants, many of whom are known terrorists, criminals, and people infected with COVID. The open border policy

“is an inside attack on our democracy,” said former Trump policy adviser Stephen Miller. “The president is working systematically to allow people to invade our country against our laws to consume public benefits, to take American jobs, and to threaten public safety.”

Adding insult to injury, Biden is shipping hordes of illegals to secret destinations without informing the American public. The Pentagon has confirmed that it is using Laughlin Air Force Base in Texas to fly illegal immigrants to undisclosed parts of the country. We don’t know where they are going or what happens to them when they get there.

State must act now to head off future floods MIKE MACHADO | CONTRIBUTED

alifornia needs to make Stockton and San Joaquin Valley flood investments a priority — especially during a drought. Building flood management projects takes years. If we don’t start now, we may not be ready when the next big flood arrives.

As a result of our warming climate, Stockton and San Joaquin Valley communities face a growing risk of disastrous flooding in coming years. California’s budget surplus gives us an important opportunity for a major investment in climate-smart flood solutions.

Why make flood investments a priority during a drought? Preparing for future floods is like saving for retirement: Building flood management projects takes years. If we don’t start now, we may not be ready when the next big flood arrives.

The best flood solutions, such as restoring riverside flood plains, will make our communities stronger in many ways — starting with preparing us for the effects of a warming climate.

Climate change will make droughts more frequent and more severe, reducing our winter water storage system — snowpack. Warming temperatures will mean more rain and less snow. In the past, Sierra snowpacks melted gradually in the spring. Increasingly, heavy

rain will run rapidly off our mountains. In dry years, this means less water stored as snow to supply our cities and farms. In wet years, this change means a growing risk of floods.

Today, levees straitjacket the San Joaquin River, concentrating flood flows and aiming them at Stockton.

Flood-plain restoration can allow floodwaters to spread out, slow down and sink into groundwater aquifers.

Projects such as the Dos Rios Ranch Preserve on the San Joaquin River near Modesto demonstrate that this approach works.

Flood-plain restoration can prepare us for both floods and droughts. In wet years, these projects can reduce flood damage. And by allowing floodwaters to sink into our groundwater aquifers, they increase our water supply in times of drought, complementing our overtapped rivers and reservoirs.

Flood-plain restoration also increases habitat for endangered fish, water birds and even monarch butterflies. It locks up carbon dioxide, which helps fight climate change.

Riverside restoration creates open space for recreation that increases quality of life for park-starved Central Valley communities.

More parks and reduced flood risk increase property values and attract business investment.

Reduced flood risk lowers

flood insurance costs. These pocketbook benefits will help all Central Valley communities. That’s particularly important for low-income communities, for whom floods can cause lasting damage.

The state’s draft Central Valley Flood Protection Plan projects with certainty that peak San Joaquin River flood flows will double in coming decades. In the worst case, the biggest floods could increase fivefold, putting Stockton and San Joaquin Valley communities more at risk for a disaster than was New Orleans when floodwaters devastated the city in 2005.

San Joaquin River floods will not be ankle-deep inundations that merely ruin carpets. Unless we act now, in some areas, floods could rise to rooftops, posing tremendous danger to lives and homes. There are many opportunities for the state to build flood-plain projects upstream from Stockton.

We also need local projects, such as the Van Buskirk flood plain and the Smith Canal Gate floodwall projects, to incorporate flood protection, recreation and ecosystem restoration.

Using a portion of the nowclosed Van Buskirk Golf Course as a flood plain will protect communities in south Stockton. Building a new gate at the mouth of the Smith Canal and a flood wall at one end of the Stockton Golf and Country Club

will reduce flooding in the Stockton area.

While the Yolo Bypass in the north delta helps protect Sacramento from floods, there is no flood bypass in the south delta. But there can be — the Paradise Cut Expansion Project would protect Stockton and nearby communities.

Yet for the past few decades, the state has spent $10 on Sacramento Valley flood protection for every $1 it has spent on San Joaquin Valley flood protection projects.

Nearly all water interests see the broad benefits of flood-plain restoration and strongly support this solution. But these projects cannot be built without funds.

And we need them now, not years from now. Call your legislators and urge them to fight to end that flood funding imbalance.

Fourth Of July Shows Start This Weekend In Riverside County CNS | CONTRIBUTED

F

ourth of July fireworks shows, parades and other celebrations in Riverside County will get underway more than a week ahead of America’s 246th birthday, with several extravaganzas slated for this weekend.

On Saturday, the city of Murrieta will be combining pre-Independence Day festivities with a 31st birthday bash for the municipality, which was incorporated in 1991. There will be an outdoor concert, food vendors, a kids play zone and pyrotechnics after nightfall in California Oaks Sports Park.

The city of Menifee’s traditional Independence Day Celebration will return Saturday to Wheatfield Park, beginning at 4 p.m., featuring children’s activities, live music and fireworks at sundown.

“The independence celebration has been a community tradition for over 30 years, even before Menifee officially became a city,” Councilman Bob Karwin said. “This is a marquee event, where you can enjoy the whole day with your friends and family and finish the evening with an awesome fireworks show.”

The city of Eastvale has scheduled fireworks extravaganzas both Saturday and Sunday in Community Park on Citrus Street. On Fourth of July weekend, multiple pyrotechnics celebrations are

planned.

The city of Coachella is scheduled to host a fireworks spectacular after sundown in Bagdouma Park on July 1, and the city of Desert Hot Springs will hold a celebration after dark in Mission Springs Park on July 2.

On July 3, the Jurupa Area Recreation & Park District’s annual community celebration is scheduled from 4 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. in Vernola Park, where a pyrotechnics show will cap the outing at nightfall. On the Fourth of July, events are planned at a string of venues countywide.

Corona’s traditional Main Street U.S.A Parade will begin about 9 a.m. at Ontario and Main streets, featuring law enforcement units, fire engines, marching bands, military hardware and show animals.

The procession will travel about a mile, concluding at Olive and Main streets around noon. A fireworks show is set for 9 p.m. in Santana Regional Park.

Moreno Valley’s Fourth of July Parade will get underway about 9:30 a.m. at Alessandro Boulevard and Frederick Street, concluding two hours later on Towngate Avenue. The celebration will continue at 2 p.m. outside the Civic Center Amphitheater, where a Family FunFest is planned, complete with rock bands, a beer garden and kids’ activities. Fireworks are scheduled after sunset.

At 10 a.m., Temecu-

CLASSIC COMEDY

la’s Star Spangled Parade will get underway, featuring the Temecula Valley Mounted Posse, Veterans of Foreign Wars, members of the American Legion, the Riverside County Fire Department, the Boy Scouts of America and other organizations. The parade will run along Old Town Front Street. There will be pyrotechnics in Ronald Reagan Sports Park after dark.

In addition to the above venues, fireworks shows are scheduled at the following locations, beginning at 9 p.m. July 4: — Banning, Nicolet Middle School, 101 E. Nicolet St.; — Beaumont, Stewart Park, Ninth Street and Orange Avenue; — Blythe, Colorado River Fairgrounds, 591 N. Olive Blvd.; — Canyon Lake, Holiday Harbor, 22-200 Canyon Club Drive; — Lake Elsinore, Summerly Park, 18505 Malaga Road; — Palm Desert, Civic Center Park, Fred Waring Drive and San Pablo Avenue; — Palm Springs Stadium, 1901 E. Baristo Road; — Rancho Mirage, Agua Caliente Casino Resort & Spa, 32-250 Bob Hope Drive; — Riverside, Ryan Bonaminio Park, 5000 Tequesquite Ave.; — Riverside, La Sierra Park, 5215 La Sierra Ave.; and — Temecula, Pechanga Resort Casino, 45000

Pechanga Parkway.

In 2020, all but one public Fourth of July fireworks celebration was canceled because of the coronavirus public health lockdowns. The celebrations returned on a scaled-down level in 2021.

In Riverside County, private parties are prohibited from using fireworks except in Blythe, Coachella, Desert Hot Springs and Indio, where so- called “safe and sane” fireworks, certified by the state fire marshal, can be sold to the public. The devices are mostly pyrotechnics that don’t explode or fly, including sparklers, ground spinners, fountains, snappers and caps.

Under county Ordinance 858, which was amended by the Board of Supervisors last year in response to an outbreak of blazes in 2020, fines for illegally storing, transporting or setting off fireworks can range from $1,000 to $5,000.

Any person who triggers a brush fire due to the illegal use of fireworks can be held responsible for all suppression costs.

Under the revised ordinance, property owners also face liability.

People can report illegal fireworks via the sheriff ’s non-emergency enforcement line, 1-800950-2444, or at www.riversidesheriff.org/555/fireworks.

Lawmakers are proposing creating a billion-dollar fund in this year’s state budget that would provide California’s first-time buyers either all of the money they need for a down payment, or very close to it, in exchange for partial ownership stakes in those residences.

The proposal, put forward by state Senate President Pro Tem Toni Atkins, comes as skyrocketing property prices broaden the divide between those who own their homes and those who rent in California. In the past year, Golden State homeowners gained $141,000 in home equity, on average, the housing research firm CoreLogic reported last week, more than in any other state.

California’s rate of home ownership, at 56 percent, is second lowest in the country behind New York, according to the American Community Survey data from the census.

Atkins said the California Dream for All program is aimed at creating opportunities for lower- and middle-income buyers in a rapidly rising market, including those who have faced racial and economic

barriers to homeownership.

“The California Dream for All program will give more people the chance to break free from the cycle of renting,” Atkins said last month. “This has the ability to change people’s lives.”

The proposal is the subject of negotiations between the Legislature’s Democratic supermajority and Gov. Gavin Newsom, also a Democrat, on how to spend a projected budget surplus of $97.5 billion. The legislature passed a budget on Monday that includes the proposal, though negotiations with Newsom continue on a final overall spending plan.

A spokesman for the governor declined to comment on the proposal, citing the ongoing negotiations. It was not included in the governor’s original budget nor in his May revised budget.

A MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR FUND The housing proposal — which would call for issuing revenue bonds of $1 billion a year for 10 years to create the fund — is the largest in a slew of proposals intended to promote homeownership this year. The proposal also includes $50 million in the budget this year, and $150 million per year after that to pay for the administrative costs of the program and the interest costs of the revenue bonds.

The program envisions helping some 7,700 borrowers a year, according to estimates made by the pro-

year. Here's how it would work for one hypothetical set of homebuyers. (See Chart 1 before reading on).

If approved, the program would begin issuing interest-free second mortgage loans covering up to 30 percent of a home’s purchase price, though lawmakers expect many of the loans would cover 17 percent, asking borrowers to include 3 percent of their own money or pair the loan

with other first-time buyer programs.

The interest-free loans would be paid back into a state fund whenever the home was sold, or if a bigger mortgage was acquired in a cash-out refinancing.

For instance, if the fund provided 20 percent toward the purchase price of the home, the fund would get back its initial investment, as well as a 20 percent share of any increase in the

home’s value.

The program would reinvest those proceeds, giving the fund the ability to make new loans for eligible participants, even if prices have risen significantly.

As long as home prices rise, the plan would create equity for people who otherwise would have remained renters. The program also would generate

enough returns for the state to help future homebuyers.

If prices fall, homeowners might still gain some equity and the fund would absorb the losses, program planners said.

FEWER CAN AFFORD HOMES Over a 40-year period the program could assist some 157,000 families with interest-free loans, said Gene Slater, chairman of CSG Advisors, another consultancy hired to design the program.

Lawmakers said they are trying to do more to support homeownership, especially now that the pandemic has spurred demand for single-family properties as remote workers seek more space, and as communities throughout the state are falling woefully short of homebuilding goals.

“Until California truly prioritizes affordable homeownership, a generation of Californians will be effectively barred from one of the most reliable forms of wealth generation available — owning a home,” said Assemblymember Tim Grayson, a Democrat from Concord, in April.

California’s home price increases mean affordability has plummeted, even more so for Black and Latino families. Only 26 percent of California households overall earned the minimum annual income needed to buy a median-priced, single-family home last year. Just 17 percent of Black and Latino households could afford such a property, according to a report by the California Association of Realtors, which supports the creation of the down payment fund.

“Homeownership provides working families with the unparalleled ability to accrue generational wealth and experience financial stability through a fixed mortgage versus rising rents,” said the California Homeownership Coalition, a group that includes the Realtors, the California Building Industry Association and Habitat for Humanity.

“These funding solutions are especially important for communities of color still facing disproportionately low homeownership rates because of decades-long discriminatory housing practices.”

BUILDING GENERATIONAL WEALTH The program is intended to build as much flexibility as possible. Buyers who have lived in historically low-income neighborhoods can receive priority for some of the funds and can use shared appreciation loans to buy in their current neighborhoods or buy homes elsewhere.

“We need to make sure that the state’s homeownership assistance program serves people in all parts of the state, including in its high cost areas,” said Micah Weinberg, chief executive of the nonprofit group California Forward, which oversaw drafting the proposal.

“We cannot wait until more housing is built for these communities to begin to build the generational wealth that they were locked out of and deeply deserve,” he said during a recent legislative hearing.

The program would be open to buyers making less than 150 percent of the median income in their area, and it would target first-generation homebuyers as well as those with high student debt loads.

If approved, the program would significantly improve home affordability in California for the people awarded one of the loans, proponents say. If it had existed in 2021, for instance, it would have reduced the annual income needed to buy a median priced home of $786,000 by more than $30,000 to about $90,000, according to Kate Owens, a principal at HR&A Advisors, Inc., one of the economic consulting firms hired to devise the program.

The program is distinct from other down payment assistance programs in that most offer much smaller payments, often around 3 percent to 5 percent of the purchase price, in the form of grants or loans.

The proposed state fund allows homeowners to not put down a down payment, eliminating the need to save for that initial investment, which Atkins said is the biggest hurdle for many buyers in today’s market.

These equity sharing arrangements often are referred to as shared appreciation mortgages. The California plan would be the largest attempted experiment with such home loans

from A1 found, and the criminal investigation continues.

The lawsuit names as defendants the Wests; the California Department of Social Services and department director Kim Johnson; the Kern County Department of Human Services and former department director Dena Murphy; Ana Zavala-Garza, a county social worker; and other individuals whose identities are not yet known, according to the court documents.

Dean's custody battle began Nov. 13, 2016, when she came home from work to find Cinsere, then 3 months old, crying uncon-

“There are lots of things in life where the policy idea is great (but) executing it is hard,” he said, adding that while the program would only be a fraction of the state’s massive housing market, it could contribute to rising prices if it got bigger. “If this program scales it would almost certainly have at least some impact.”

Andrew Caplin, a professor at New York University who wrote a book on shared equity programs, said he is eager to see the concept take off, but he has largely promoted the idea for private investors, not governments.

Caplin did not study the California plan, but he said he would be concerned that politicians might feel pressured to not demand repayment and “in the end, it will all be agreed that we can’t really collect the money — like student loans.”

POTENTIAL COMPLICATIONS Richard Green, director of the University of Southern California’s Lusk Center for Real Estate, put forward a competing research proposal that was not selected by the state. He supports the goals of the one under consideration but is concerned about how complicated it is.

SOMEONE ELSE’S MORTGAGE Had it been in existence, the program could have helped a homebuyer such as Aralyn Tucker, 29, who moved to Sacramento in 2017 because she was priced out of the housing market of her hometown of San Jose.

Tucker, who has a master’s degree in public policy and administration from Sacramento State University, works in human resources at a private school.

She was only able to afford a two-bedroom condominium in Sacramento after her parents contributed most of the down payment as a gift.

Buying a home was important, she said, because her family had moved at least four times before she turned 18, at times into unstable housing situations.

“Creating that generational wealth and creating that security has been really important to my parents,” she said.

Down payment help was critical, because her mortgage payment is only $200 more than rent, she said, but she couldn’t save for the down payment on her own.

“Folks in my generation, we have so many extra expenses that we’re not able to set that cash aside as a down payment,” she said.

“Here I am making enough money to afford $2,200 in rent each month that I paid on time every month, and yet, I wouldn’t qualify for a mortgage because I don’t have the down payment,” she said. “We’re constantly behind and we’re paying into a system that doesn’t give anything back to us regarding equity.

I’m paying someone else’s mortgage.”

trollably, the lawsuit stated.

Cinsere's father, Charles, told Dean that he had given the boy two baths that day but that nothing else of note occurred.

She took Cinsere to a hospital, where X-rays revealed both of his legs were broken, court documents stated. Kern County social workers removed him from her custody later that day.

Cinsere was placed in the foster home of Latoya Spry, who is not named as a defendant in the lawsuit.

Dean was allowed weekly visits, completed parenting classes and filed formal reunification requests.

Dean gave birth to Classic the following June. The boy, who was born premature, was released to her

care, but a Kern County sheriff 's deputy came to her home days later and said county social workers were removing Classic "because Cinsere Pettus had been removed and they like to keep siblings together," according to the lawsuit.

The lawsuit alleges that California Department of Social Services officials incentivize Kern County to remove children from the foster care system within two years.

In late 2018, the defendants "worked in concert" to have the boys removed from Spry's home and placed with the Wests "for financial gain," court documents stated.

"At this time there was no reason given why Cinsere

and Classic were moved from Ms. Spry's care to the Wests'," according to the lawsuit. "After the children were in the foster care of the Wests, Ms. Dean was not allowed to bond with the children as often as before."

During subsequent visits, Dean noticed that her children were scared and losing weight and that Classic had scratches on his face, the lawsuit stated.

In October that year, Moorer, the boys' grandmother, filed a request to have Cinsere and Classic placed in her care, court documents stated. The next month, Dean wrote a letter to authorities expressing her concerns over the Wests' lack of proper care.

She did not receive a response.

"Sometime in 2019, defendants revoked Ms. Dean's parental rights without explanation, while Ms. Moorer continued her attempts to have Cinsere and Classic Pettus placed in her care," the lawsuit stated.

The grandmother's custody request was denied in March 2019.

A Department of Social Services spokesperson told The Times the state agency "is unable to comment on litigation."

The Kern County human services department was not able to respond "because there is a gag order in place," a spokesperson said.

still mourning, their attorney Waukeen Q. McCoy told The Times on Tuesday.

"Whenever I talk to Ryan about it she tears up in disbelief that this occurred," McCoy said.

The attorney said that under the federal Family First Prevention Services Act, enacted in 2018, social workers are supposed to prioritize placing children who are taken from their parents' custody into the home of a relative.

Kern County and state officials failed to abide by that federal mandate, McCoy alleged.

"They failed this family," he said.

“Andrew, of course, was on point,” she said. “Being a former judge myself, it isn’t an easy task. Newcomer Michelle Modesto with her charisma and passionate comments was a breath of fresh air.”

When everything was said and done, first place and $10,000 went to the Ramona Bowl Amphitheatre. American Cancer Society, Relay For Life earned $5,000 for second place and third-place honors and $3,000 was given to Boxing For Christ. There was a tie for fourth place of MilVet and Valley Community Pantry who partnered with Veterans Mobility Project; both groups received $2,000 each.

New this year was a $500 Crowd Favorite award, in addition to any other cash prize they received.

Each table was given a QR code to scan so they could vote as many times as they wanted for and the American Cancer Society, Relay For Life team won with 1,178 votes.

“Having the crowd vote for their favorite was the perfect addition to the night,” Silvas said.

Cathi Hill, Senior Development Manager for American Cancer Society Inc. West Region, said this year’s lip sync battle was epic as always.

“Each year the Soboba Foundation and the Soboba Casino Resort, along with the amazing Andrew Vallejos give the audience a show that people can talk about until next year,” she said. “I could not have been prouder of ‘my boys’ (as I call them) for bringing in the second-place win along with the fan favorite. Winning the fan favorite was a perfect way for the boys to feel the love the audience has for them.

Congratulations to the Ramona Bowl for their firstplace win and to all the performers of the night on rocking the Lip Sync stage.”

All other contestants received $1,000 each and were noted for their special contributions. The groups competed in random order. San Jacinto Unified School District offered “The Thriller Experience” with their own rendition of Michael Jackson and his zombie dance troupe. They were awarded “Most Entertaining” by the judges who also applauded their great costumes and makeup.

“What an exciting way to kick off this beautiful event,” Bella Da Ball said.

Gale Hill, who is the district’s Executive Assistant to the Superintendent & Board, said this is one of her favorite events.

“I was really proud of SJUSD; I thought they did a great job,” she said. “The whole event is fun and you never know what to expect. Andrew and Cat are the best and I love their sense of humor.”

Global Society for Female Entrepreneurs inspires, empowers, mentors, educates and connects women so they can learn from and support each other. Lip Syncing to Dolly Parton’s “9 to 5,” Rose Royce’s “Car Wash” and “She Works Hard for the Money” by Donna Summer while dancing up a storm, the two performers were awarded “Best Choreography.”

Judge Joey Placencia thought their outfits were great and Debby Alexander liked how well they played off each other throughout the routine.

They performed “Rescue Me” by Fontella Bass and captured the “Best Costumes” award.

Judge Michelle Modesto is a big cat lover and thought the song choice and routine was great as it stressed the importance of adoption.

The Hemet San Jacinto Valley Chamber of Commerce was awarded “Most Creative” for their rendition of “Achy Breaky Heart” by Billy Ray Cyrus.

Line dancing Chamber members stole the show while stepping out in their blue jeans, chaps, cowboy hats and boots.

“I could tell you were all thrilled to be up there and not afraid to move on that stage,” Bella said. An audience member commented that their act made her want to get up and dance.

Karena Zermeno was one of the backup dancers who got lots of positive feedback from the judges and audience. She said, “Performing for a great cause that benefits nonprofits here in our valley has become in my opinion the staple of our community. Soboba has done an amazing job putting this together for the past 14 years and every nonprofit in the valley looks forward to either participating or attending this great event.

I am very grateful to have such a great supporter of our valley as Soboba is and has been.”

The San Jacinto Education Foundation was chosen as having the “Best Props” as they depicted a

baseball game between the San Jacinto High School Tigers and crosstown rivals, the Hemet High Bulldogs. “Singing” John Fogerty’s “Centerfield,” Foundation president Jerry Peebles was able to defeat the opposing team with his amazing catch.

“This was so much fun and I love the great message, especially for the education foundation that takes care of kids and teachers; you all showed great passion,” Bella said.

Michelle Modesto added that she loved seeing all the alumni on stage as she herself attended local schools “from Hyatt Tigers to San Jacinto Tigers.”

Vallejos was in the audience and asked Cyndi Lemke, Hemet San Jacinto Chamber Executive Director, for a comment. She said that being a Hemet Bulldog in high school, she felt like she was in the game with this performance.

Harold W. Hyland American Legion Post 53 helps all military veterans receive healthcare and file necessary claims with the Federal government. They give guidance to all vets and made their point by performing Bonnie Tyler’s “Holding Out for a Hero” which was voted “Most Dramatic.”

“Holy Moly! Great job, great song,” judge Hallgren said. Bella told lead “singer” Valerie Vandever that she loved the energy and could see the passion on her face.

“Another great message song that tied into all our great heroes,” she said.

The Post’s Commander and Hemet City Council Member Joe Males thanked Soboba for the great job they did for everyone that

competed. “I am not a performer and was participating for our brothers and sisters of the American Legion to do my part in bringing in the funds that help our veterans, but I enjoyed myself very much,” he said, adding that the entire event was “A+ entertainment and should have been televised.”

Vandever returned to the stage to front the team representing Soroptimist International San Jacinto Hemet Valley to perform “Bidi Bidi Bom Bom” by Selena. With a name that translates from Latin to mean “best for women” the Soroptimist group brings together girls of all ages, empowering them to be the best they can be.

The group was given the “Most Original” award.

The Greater San Jacinto Chamber of Commerce had Sharon Durbin take center stage alone to perform a stirring rendition of Lee Ann Womack’s “I Hope You Dance.” Her performance was given “Best Song” honors.

“Bravo to do a ballad like that,” Placencia said.

Bella said she could feel the emotion and said, “For you to represent your entire organization in front of hundreds of people, I salute you.” Debby Alexander said she started to think she was a real singer and Hallgren said she “nailed it.”

The top winners put on remarkable performances and were justly rewarded for their efforts. The Ramona Bowl Amphitheatre is preparing for the 100th season of the Ramona Outdoor Play in April of 2023. The Amphitheatre board stays busy all year long with seasonal and

entertaining events at the iconic venue in the Hemet Hills. Frank Jaramillo, who has shared his incredible dance moves for many years on the Lip Sync stage, scored this year with his presentation of Queen’s classic song, “Another One Bites the Dust.”

Frank was applauded by the judges for his stage presence and connection with the audience. “He is a superstar, this is what it’s all about,” Michelle Modesto said.

Males said, “I enjoyed being around fun people who were in it to win it. I couldn’t believe the acts that performed; they put so much into their performances.

But when Frank Jaramillo with the Ramona Bowl performed ‘Another One Bites the Dust’ by Queen, he set the house on fire.”

The fan favorite Smooth “boy band” that has represented American Cancer Society, Relay For Life and won first place in past contests, gave their farewell performance with a medley of songs. The Society’s mission is to save lives, celebrate lives and lead the fight for a world without cancer. The Relay for Life of Riverside County East will be Sept. 24.

Their rhythm and blues flavored dance routine was a big hit. The foursome said they started putting the act together about two weeks after last year’s show and practiced once a week for three months to get it perfected.

“This year when I stepped into the grand ballroom, my emotions were all over the place,” Hill said. “My boys had made the decision to retire the act. As I watched the acts perform, I knew the

competition was going to be tough this year. All the acts really brought their A game to battle it out, and it showed. My boys never disappoint and take control of the stage each year, and this year was no different. I watched them with such pride and gratitude in my heart.”

A quartet of talented ladies brought sass and confidence to the stage to score a knockout for Boxing for Christ, a program and curriculum that focuses on character and leadership development.

“I think you gave the boy band a run for their money,” Cat Modesto said.

Alexander said their performance was impressive with all the different dance sequences they utilized for each song which was a medley of inspiring tunes.

The nonprofit’s founder, Sonia Ramos, had competed under other nonprofit’s umbrellas in the past but said it was a great feeling to be able to participate for the first time for Boxing for Christ and take third place.

“We really worked hard,” she said. “This is one of the biggest events in the valley that brings nonprofits and the community together to let loose and have a good time. You get to see the fun part of people and not just all business. Overall, it’s an amazing event and we will definitely be participating next year. A big thank you to Soboba for bringing the whole community together to have a good time.”

MilVet supports active-duty men and women overseas and veterans and their families in Riverside County. They expertly transitioned for a medley of songs, including “Please Mr. Postman” by The Marvelettes that tied into their ongoing project of sending care packages to troops.

After thanking them for their service, Hallgen said, “I love how you picked songs that parlayed into your mission. You obviously spent a lot of time on your choreography.” Judge Alexander agreed the synchronized group dancing was on point and thought their use of props was truly amazing.

The Valley Community Pantry is going on its 57th year of serving those in need. During the past two years, they have provided more than 1.2 million pounds of food to clients as well as more than $200,000 in rental, utility and other assistance. They partnered with Veterans Mobility Project for their second appearance, which is committed to helping soldiers regain some of the freedom they fought so hard for. The organizations teamed up and feel blessed and honored to be able to serve the valley and do God’s work. This was reflected in their rendition of “I Can Only Imagine”

by Mercy Me. “Last year we were awarded ‘Most Original’ which we thought was great for our first time,” Valley Community Pantry Executive Director Jim Lineberger said. “We did not think we would win as all we try to do is get our message out and it must have had an impact as we took the fourth-place award. This event not only provides some type of monetary donation, but it is a great event in regards to having fun and seeing some great talent.

“Many nonprofit organizations are very blessed to have the support of the Soboba Foundation, which I like to refer to as the Soboba Family,” he said. “What an honor in memory of Rose Salgado, who started this event 14 years ago, to continue this fun and exciting event. We plan on being back next year.”

T

he nation is experiencing a mental health crisis. Today, California announced $518.5 million in grants to help provide services and housing options to those with severe mental illness or substance abuse problems, including for those who are living on the streets. The latest funding will help Governor Newsom’s CARE Court proposal, taking a new approach to homelessness and taking stronger action to get people off the streets and into a place where they can get the care they need.

The funding will provide treatment beds for more than 1,000 people at a time, plus behavioral health services for many more. It is part of a $2.2 billion effort to expand mental health housing and services across California, especially for people experiencing homelessness.

The Governor announced the latest grants during a meeting with families who have loved ones dealing with serious mental illness, many of whom have been homeless.

“The crisis on our streets is at a breaking point.

Too many Californians are struggling with mental illness and substance abuse, and many of them end up on our streets. We need to change the way we deliver help to those who need it, and these grants are an important step in changing our approach to homelessness and serious mental illness,” Governor Newsom said. “California won’t look away any longer; we’re helping our fellow Californians now.

That’s the California Way.” The Governor’s meeting in Sacramento with members of the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) included families who are caring for loved ones struggling with behavioral or mental health disorders and could be helped by CARE Court.

The Governor heard their stories and talked about

the historic actions that California is taking to address this crisis.

CARE Court will provide Californians suffering from untreated schizophrenia spectrum and other psychotic disorders with community-based treatment, services, and housing, and is intended to serve as an upstream intervention for the most severely impaired Californians.

“Governor Newsom has NAMI’s full support in getting CARE Court across the finish line,” said Jessica Cruz, NAMI CA CEO. “We’re here today to show our commitment to providing help, hope and health for those affected by serious mental illness by supporting initiatives like CARE Court which will provide much-needed help to Californians who

need it most.”

“CARE Court has the potential to change the lives of thousands of families across the state,” said Harold Turner, Executive Director of NAMI Urban Los Angeles. “Organizations like NAMI urgently need this support so we can quickly begin helping our loved ones who are struggling with untreated mental and behavioral issues.”

The awards announced today are delivered through the Department of Health Care Services’ (DHCS) Behavioral Health Continuum Infrastructure Program (BHCIP) Round 3: Launch Ready grants. In all, $2.2 billion was provided by the Legislature and the Governor to construct, acquire, and expand behavioral health facilities and community-

This new California coronavirus wave isn’t sticking to the script: Big spread, less illness LUKE MONEY | CONTRIBUTED

I

n the last two years, COVID-19 has followed a predictable, if painful, pattern: When coronavirus transmission has rebounded, California has been flooded with new cases and hospitals have strained under a deluge of seriously ill patients, a distressing number of whom die.

But in a world awash in vaccines and treatments, and with healthcare providers armed with knowledge gleaned over the course of the pandemic, the

latest wave isn’t sticking to that script.

Despite wide circula-

tion of the coronavirus — the latest peak is the third-highest of the pan-

demic — the impact on hospitals has been relatively minor. Even with the uptick in transmission, COVID-19 deaths have remained fairly low and stable.

And this has occurred even with officials largely eschewing new restrictions and mandates.

In some ways, that’s what is supposed to happen: As health experts get better at identifying the coronavirus, vaccinating against it and treating the symptoms, new surges in cases shouldn’t lead to excessive jumps in serious illnesses.

But today’s environment

is not necessarily tomorrow’s baseline. The coronavirus can mutate rapidly, potentially upending the public health landscape and meriting a different response.

“The one thing that is predictable about COVID, in my mind, is that it’s unpredictable,” said UCLA epidemiologist Dr. Robert Kim-Farley.

While it’s too soon to say for certain, there are signs the current wave is starting to recede. Over the weeklong period ending Thursday, California reported an average of just over 13,400 new cases per day — down

50

from the latest spike’s high point of nearly 16,700 daily cases, according to data compiled by The Times.

By comparison, last summer’s Delta surge topped out at almost 14,400 new cases per day, on average.

And more than 8,300 coronavirus-positive patients were hospitalized statewide on some days at the height of Delta — almost three times as many as during the most recent wave.

The difference in each surge’s impact on intensive care units has been even

“For me, it makes clear that layering in some protection is still the way to go while enjoying just about everything you want to enjoy,” she said.

California’s most restrictive efforts to rein in the coronavirus ended almost exactly a year ago, when the state celebrated its economic reopening by scrapping virtually all restrictions that had long provided the backbone of its pandemic response.

Roughly a month later, with the then-novel Delta variant on the rampage, some parts of the state reinstituted mask mandates in hopes of blunting transmission.

Toward the end of the year, another new foe would arise: the Omicron variant . This highly transmissible strain brought unprecedented viral spread, sending case counts and hospitalizations soaring and prompting officials to reissue a statewide mask mandate for indoor public spaces.

The fury with which those two surges struck left some fearing, and others advocating for, the return of the stringent orders that restricted peoples’ movements and shut down broad

swaths of the economy.

However, both waves came and went without California officials resorting to that option .

And during this latest wave — fueled by an alphanumeric soup of Omicron subvariants , including BA.2 and BA.2.12.1 — such aggressive action seems off the table.

“I think, deep in my heart, unless we see a new variant that evades our current vaccine protection, we are not going to need to go back to the more drastic tools we had to use early on the pandemic when we didn’t have vaccines, when we didn’t have access to testing, when we didn’t have therapeutics,” Ferrer said in an interview.

During both Delta and the initial Omicron surge, California “carefully evaluated the unique characteristics of each variant to determine how to best handle the changes in the behavior of the virus, and used the lessons of the last two years to approach mitigation and adaptation measures through effective and timely strategies,” according to the state Department of Public Health.

“These lessons and experiences informed our approach to manage each surge and variant. In addition, there were more tools lions of Americans can’t afford to put food on the table.

Biden’s decisions are informed by his surrender to the extreme left wing of the Democratic Party. Their plan is to destroy the American economy in order to bring about a Marxist, socialist tyranny controlled by the unaccountable bureaucrats of the Deep State. We cannot tolerate a president who seeks the transformation of America into another Venezuela.

3. Biden is waging war on E4

the energy sector to deliberately destroy the American economy.

Under Trump, the U.S. became energy independent.

Biden reversed Trump’s sensible energy policies, causing the worst inflation in 40 years, runaway gas, food, and heating prices, and looming recession. As far back as the 2020 election, Biden has boasted about his intention to destroy our reliance on fossil fuels.

“Harvesting of fuel was cut back drastically,” said Bill O’Reilly, “and that caused the price of gas at the pump to rise, and that lit inflation, as all other goods went up in price as well because they are trucked to the stores and businesses. That is all on President Biden.” Now mil-

starker. During Delta, there were days with more than 2,000 coronavirus-positive patients in ICUs statewide.

In the latest wave, however, that daily census has so far topped out at around 300.

That gap in hospitalizations illustrates how the pandemic has changed.

“At the very beginning of the pandemic, we noted right away the game-changers were going to be vaccines, easy access to testing and therapeutics — and now we have all those things,” said Los Angeles County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer.

“It doesn’t say the pandemic’s over. That’s not what we’ve accomplished,” she stressed. “What we’ve accomplished is we’ve reduced the risk, but we haven’t eliminated the risk.”

And though hospitalizations have been lower, in the aggregate, during the latest wave, Ferrer noted that each infection still carries its own dangers — not just severe illness, but the chance of long COVID , as well. Taking individual action to protect yourself, she said, carries the added benefit of helping safeguard those around you, including those at higher risk of serious symptoms or who

available for disease control during each subsequent surge, including the Delta and Omicron surges,” the department wrote in response to an inquiry from The Times. “So, rather than using the same mitigation strategies that had been used previously, CDPH focused on vaccines, masks, tests, quarantine, improving ventilation and new therapeutics.”

The state has also eschewed its previous practice of setting specific thresholds to tighten or loosen restrictions in favor of what it calls the “SMARTER” plan — which focuses on preparedness and applying lessons learned to better armor California against future surges or new variants.

“Each surge and each variant brings with it unique characteristics relative to our neighborhoods’ and communities’ specific conditions,” the Department of Public Health said in its statement to The Times.

Chief among those, the department added, are getting vaccinated and boosted when eligible and properly wearing high-quality face masks when warranted.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends public indoor masking in counties that have a high COVID-19

community level, the worst on the agency’s three-tier scale . That category indicates not only significant community transmission but also that hospital systems may grow strained by coronavirus-positive patients.

“We certainly are not at a level at these numbers where you would say, ‘OK, it’s now, quote, endemic, and we just go about business as usual,’ “ Kim-Farley said. “I think, though, it is probably indicative of what we might see in the future going forward, that we will see low levels in the community, people can relax and let their guard down a bit. But there will then be other times when we might see surges coming in. ... That’s a time when we mask up again. So I think there may be some on and off a little bit, and hopefully these surges become fewer, more spread out and less intense as we go forward.”

As of Thursday , 19 California counties were in the high community level — Alameda, Butte, Contra Costa, Del Norte, El Dorado, Fresno, Kings, Lake, Madera, Marin, Monterey, Napa, Placer, Sacramento, San Benito, Santa Clara, Solano, Sonoma and Yolo.

However, only Alameda County has reinstituted a public indoor mask man-

date.

Ferrer has said Los Angeles County would do the same should it fall in the high COVID-19 community level for two consecutive weeks.

L.A. County, like the state as a whole, continues to strongly recommend residents wear masks indoors in public. But Ferrer acknowledged “it’s a very tough needle to thread” and said an unintended consequence of years of health orders might be that people don’t grasp the urgency of a recommendation.

“People are now assuming if we don’t issue orders and require safety measures then it’s because it’s not essential, and that’s not what we meant,” she said. “We have always benefited from having folks that are able to listen, ask questions and then, for the most part, align with the safety measures. And I think because it’s been such a long duration, because there’s so much fatigue at this point and desperation in some senses to get back to customary practices, people are waiting for that order before they go ahead and take that sensible precaution.”

“The Biden administration declared that the ‘most lethal elements’ of today’s domestic terror threat are political conservatives,” said Tucker Carlson. Biden has compared Americans who disagree with him -- at least half the country -- to racists and terrorists.

Consequently, Biden is empowering the DoJ and FBI to go after Republicans. “The FBI is now an organization solely focused on destroying the domestic enemies of the 4.

Tucker Carlson. “[Biden is calling for] censorship of political opinions. What you’re seeing here is far more dangerous than the domestic terror threat they’ve been bloviating about. It contravenes the First Amendment.”

5. Biden is violating the equal protection clause.

Biden is presiding over an inquisition against white Americans. He has expressed his support for Critical Race Theory, which argues that the U.S. is inherently racist, that minorities are oppressed by whites and especially white men, and that white people achieve their economic and political objectives at the expense of people of color.

CRT is in direct opposition to the aims of the Civil

Rights movement and Martin Luther King’s emphasis on judging people based on the quality of their character rather than the color of their skin.

Blaming white supremacy has become the new national sport. Under the guise of ending oppression, Biden and the Democratic Party want to remake whites into the new underclass. Giving special treatment to any one group is in violation of the equal protection clause. It is also the worst kind of racism. Blaming current social problems on alleged white oppression heightens racial tensions and keeps the country divided. Division seems to be Biden’s objective. For that reason alone, he should www.HSJChronicle.com be impeached.
