Good morning, Southern California.
It’s difficult to ignore the humanitarian crisis unfolding at our border, especially in light of yesterday’s tragedy off the coast of exclusive Del Mar.
Refugees keep trying to find a way into the United States, even as efforts to close the border ramp up under the second Trump administration.
Turning from tragedy, there is the good news that California is the best state for police officers, and some advice for the Board of Supervisors about tapping the county’s reserve funds.
