Only in America land of the almighty dollar could you witness what has occurred this past week in Los Angeles. Last Wednesday The District Attorneys of Los Angeles and San Francisco updated their lawsuit against Uber for having useless background checks and for giving the public a false sense of security when in their cars. They say they can prove Uber has had murderers, registered sex offenders, identity thieves and drivers with recent DUI’s working. Less than a week later the Los Angeles City Council approves LAX pickups for these people? I was shocked until I learned that Joshua Perttula a member of Mayor Garcetti’s transition team is a “paid lobbyist” for Lyft and that Mr. Garcetti’s legal counsel is married to an attorney that represents Lyft. Don King was right, “Only In America”.

You think Garcetti is anything but sold out completely and taking SM with him -that is the plan and has been for a very long time- ? I am not shocked by a thing he is doing- sadly- Uber also is a union buster- we should run them out Lyft can go too- but Garcetti – like Bloom and O’Connor- sadly other once good Dems are basically sold out and have sold us out – up to us to get them out – i am only hoping our new city manager is not a Garcetti plant- like Carter Rubin no doubt was-
Garcetti is going to run for Governor and UBER will give him a blank check for any amount he desires for his campaign. There are only two groups in America with more liars, thieves and crooks than the Mafia: UBER and the Los Angeles City Council.
