On this episode of the WTF California Podcast, we discuss how Antioch Mayor Lamar Thorpe will be holding a press conference later Wednesday to state the city is a “no side show zone”. We touch on Antioch Councilwoman Tamisha Torres-Walker who is working on a 2-for-1 deal of trying to not only screw up the City of Antioch, but also the City of Richmond as Mayor Tom Butts questions why Antioch would even elect someone like her. City of Oakland and City of Sacramento have police decisions to make, brazen theft caught on video in San Francisco. We discuss recalls and there is now data behind them. Plus much more.

Richmond’s Mayor Tom Butt needs to get the whole story on the foul-mouthed arsonist/felon. If she had any smarts, she’d have bowed out months ago. Not very bright, to say the least!
If you don’t like California and the politics, feel free to leave! I hear Texas is accepting new residents
I can just picture Lamar zig-zagging around trying to stop cars from doing donuts. Yelling, “I’m not messin’ around!” Dodging cars! Too funny!
Mr. Thorpe, as usual, put his foot in his mouth at a recent press conference. While emitting the proper platitudes against sideshows and street racing, he stated that it is “a part of our culture” and needs to be accommodated. Sheesh.
