California State Assemblyman Stan Ellis and Mike Ariza stop by the Energy News Beat and the Energy Impacts Podcast with Stu Turley and David Blackmon to discuss the critical nature of the energy crisis facing California, which is about to unfold. Assemblyman Ellis, Mike, and Professor Mische have been working to help get the Federal Government involved to help out California consumers from this potential diesel, gasoline, and jet fuel crash. Hat tip to David Blackmon for carrying the podcast as I had internet issues. 1. California's Fuel Supply CrisisThe episode centers on an impending fuel shortage in California caused by multiple factors:Refineries shutting down (Valero, Rodeo, Marathon, Phillips)Tanker shipments from Asia halted since mid-MarchImports now account for 40%+ of California's fuel supplyOnly 3-7 days of fuel storage remaining (vs. Governor Newsom's claim of 30 days)Tankers from the Gulf take 25-45 days to reach California due to Panama Canal backups2. Political Dysfunction in CaliforniaAssemblyman Stan Ellis criticizes:Inefficient time management in the state assembly (spending $40,000/hour on ceremonial resolutions)Partisan gridlock and ideological rigidity among Democratic leadershipLack of accountability and poor legislative prioritizationThe disconnect between politicians and real-world business operations3. California's Energy Policy ProblemsKey issues highlighted:CARB regulations: Reformulated fuel requirements (Carbob) limit fuel sourcesCap and Trade: Billions diverted to high-speed rail instead of infrastructure or energy solutionsEnvironmental lawsuits: Constant litigation blocking oil and gas developmentRenewable diesel conversion: Rodeo and Marathon refineries converted away from gasoline/jet fuel production, removing 350,000 barrels/day of capacity4. Short-term and Long-term SolutionsProposed remedies include:Immediate: Import non-Carbob gasoline from the Gulf; suspend Jones Act restrictionsMedium-term: Executive orders to federalize oil and gas as a national security issueLong-term: Increase domestic drilling, restore refinery profitability, eliminate Cap and Trade, invest in alternative energy (fusion, nuclear, hydrogen)5. Geopolitical and Supply Chain IssuesU.S. importing 30% of crude oil from the Middle EastIndirect support of Russia through purchases of Indian fuel (which sources from Russia)Iran's strait closure affecting global oil productionOther countries (Nevada, Arizona) dependent on California's fuel supply6. Economic and National Security ImplicationsOil and gas represent 8% of California's GDP; without it, the other 92% is unsustainableMilitary bases (42 in California) dependent on fuel supplyCommercial aviation and trucking (grocery delivery) at riskPotential for widespread economic disruption if crisis occursThe overall tone is urgent and critical of California's environmental policies. Things have to change quickly to avoid the crisis.

Someone murdered Joseph Gatto inside his home in Silver Lake, California. His son, Mike Gatto, who was a state Assemblyman at the time, wrote a book about his father's murder and the associated investigation into the still unsolved murder. I will be speaking with Mike Gatto.

INTERVIEW: Assemblyman David Tangipa (R-Clovis) calls to discuss the federal three‑judge panel that ruled that California can move forward with its new, voter‑approved U.S. House map for the 2026 election, rejecting attempts by Tangipa (plaintiff) state Republicans and the U.S. Justice Department to block it. The court’s 2–1 decision allows the state to implement district lines designed to give Democrats a stronger chance at flipping several congressional seats next year. Opponents argued the map relied too heavily on race to boost Hispanic representation, but judges found no constitutional violation. Tangipa says he's now asking the Supreme Court to look at the case.

This week, President Donald Trump issued many angry threats against Zohran Mamdani, the underdog winner of New York Democratic mayoral primary. Trump has been attacking Mamdani, a state Assemblyman, as a “Communist,”  threatening to arrest him along with other foes, and questioning Mamdani's U.S. citizenship, hinting at a possible effort to try to strip his citizenship.  What caught our eye is Mamdani's response: It was sharply worded, illuminated the real stakes in this battle in a novel way, and effectively declared that the threat posed by Trump's secret police to immigrants actually threatens us all. Democrats can learn from this, because Trump's threats to denaturalize foes may soon become real. We talked to David Bier, director of immigration studies at the Cato Institute. He explains what Trump would need to do to denaturalize Mamdani and other political opponents, what liberals and Democrats be preparing for right now, and why basic freedoms are hanging in the balance—for all of us.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?
