Why California’s High-Speed Rail Is a Total Disaster

California’s infamous high-speed rail project has become the most expensive transportation disaster in state history — and it’s not even close to being finished. Promised to connect Los Angeles and San Francisco in under 3 hours, it’s now just a vague plan between Merced and Bakersfield — nowhere near its original vision.

In this episode, Phil breaks down how this “train to nowhere” has burned through $30+ billion, blown past every deadline, and continues to siphon tax dollars under the guise of climate change, traffic relief, and helping the Central Valley — despite audits, delays, and zero real progress.

🚨 Trump and the feds are now looking to pull $4 billion in funding, and for good reason. Is this just another California dream gone off the rails? Or was it always a mythical scam from the beginning?

📉 Share your thoughts in the comments: Should we pull the plug on the bullet train? Or double down?
