Costco Plans to Launch Its First Stand-Alone Gas Station in California — and It's Set to Be the Biggest Yet

By Mistah Wilson -
Image
📍 Mission Viejo, CA In a bold move that bucks a couple of industry trends, Costco is preparing to open its first-ever stand-alone gas station in California — and it’s shaping up to be the warehouse giant’s largest fuel site to date. Set to be built at 25732 El Paseo in the Mission Viejo Freeway Center, right off the I-5, the upcoming station will sit alongside heavy-hitter retailers like Krispy Kreme, Best Buy, and Petco — making it a potentially high-traffic hub for South OC commuters. According to reporting by the Orange County Register, city officials greenlit the project back in March. The new gas station will take over the site of a closed Bed Bath & Beyond, with demolition, grading, and permits currently in motion. If all goes to plan, construction is expected to begin this fall, with a Spring 2026 grand opening on the calendar. While many gas stations pair their fuel pumps with a convenience store — often where the bulk of profits are made — this stand-alone mod...

How A Defendant Won The Case, on Substance, in People v. Michael Taylor (XNEGA1111-32)

By Mistah Wilson -

EXCLUSIVE INVESTIGATION "Fraud Upon the Court: How the People v. Michael Taylor Case Exposes a Judicial System in Crisis" By ThaWilsonBlock Magazine Investigative Team Pasadena, CA – In a quiet courtroom at the Pasadena branch of the Los Angeles County Superior Court, a case that began as a routine criminal prosecution has now erupted into a far-reaching constitutional crisis. New evidence and court documents obtained by ThaWilsonBlock Magazine suggest that in People v. Michael Taylor (Case No. XNEGA111132), the court may be actively concealing violations of its own judicial orders—raising red flags about judicial integrity, attorney collusion, and systemic abuse of mental health evaluations to silence defendants. At the center of the storm is Michael Taylor, a pro se defendant who has meticulously documented what he says is a fraud upon the court—an unconstitutional act that nullifies all subsequent proceedings. His evidence points to a judicial system leveraging...

Gavin Newsom Implicated in RICO Conspiracy to Cover-Up Judicial Fraud | Publicly Filed Confidential Medical Records of Mentally Ill Defendant

By Mistah Wilson -
Image
How a Sealed Court Order, a Fraudulent Assessment, and a Governor-Appointed Judge Orchestrated a Criminal Cover-Up in Plain View In a state supposedly championing progressive justice reform, the State of California has committed one of the most disturbing abuses of power in recent history — a textbook case of **government-sponsored fraud**, **constitutional sabotage**, and **racketeering under color of law**. What began as a routine criminal case devolved into a multi-year, multi-agency conspiracy — implicating judges, public defenders, state evaluators, and ultimately, **Governor Gavin Newsom** himself — in a concerted effort to falsify judicial proceedings, incarcerate a legally competent defendant, and obstruct exculpatory evidence. This is the story of how a sealed diversion order was transformed — illegally — into a **fraudulent competency proceeding**, weaponized against a defendant who refused to surrender his rights. ### **The Case Begins: From Charges t...

By -
Image
Daz Dillinger  is a 52 year old rapper, producer & songwriter from Long Beach, California who happens to be the cousin of Brandy, her brother Ray J, WWE Hall of Famer  Snoop Dogg  & the current AEW tbs Champion and RPW Women’s Champion Mercedes Moné. He eventually signed to Death Row Records & became an original in-house producer under the guidance of it’s co-founder  Dr. Dre , forming  Tha Dogg Pound  with  Kurupt  not too long afterwards. Daz finally made his solo debut on ‘98 by putting out  Retaliation, Revenge & Get Back  on Death Row until departing rather quickly to put out 19 more LPs of his own with almost 3 decades of experience in the game. We just had the Dogg Pound Gangstaz make a return to form with  W.A.W.G. (We All We Got)  under Tha Row last spring & his 21st album looks to take it back to the essence of his own debut. After the “Level 4 Yard Bizniz” intro, the first so...

There’s Aaliyah. There’s Ciara. And Then There’s Maya Huyana 💥

By Mistah Wilson -

“There’s Aaliyah. There’s Ciara. Then There’s Maya Huyana.” That’s the kind of headline the Los Angeles music scene deserves—because in every quiet verse and soulful refrain, Maya Huyana has proven she’s a force of nature. Known also by her creative moniker YaH‑Ra, (though I personally prefer her as  Maya Huyana), she’s carved out a niche all her own: a unique blend of R&B, hip‑hop, soul, and world music that has echoed across Southern California and beyond. 🎶 A Legacy Etched in Releases From her early days, Maya Huyana has been dedicated to evolving her craft. Her REBiRTH EP , released on September 27, 2017, introduced listeners to raw lyricism and rich production—complete with beats by GoldDigga, mixing/mastering by Viva Mescal—and even scratching by DJ Drastik . This project signaled the emergence of an artist willing to bare her soul. Next came the SEA‑FOAM EP , dropping June 26, 2019. Produced by Ethan Hill, it featured standout tracks like “ HiTTA ” and “ BL...

Why People Choose Religion Over Reality

By Mistah Wilson -
Image
🔍 Faith vs. Facts: Why Many People Choose Religion Outside of Objective Reality—and Why That Can Be a Fundamental Error In a world filled with scientific discovery, global communication, and access to virtually unlimited information, one would think humanity would be guided more than ever by objective reality. But still, billions of people cling—sometimes desperately—to religions that contradict evidence, defy logic, or ignore the observable world. Why? The reasons are complex, deeply human, and often emotional. But when these reasons replace reason itself, it can lead to what we call a fundamental error—the misalignment of belief systems with reality in a way that limits personal growth, distorts truth, and creates social harm. Let’s be honest. Religion offers what reality often doesn’t: People turn to religion for comfort in a world that feels chaotic, cruel, or unpredictable. The idea of a divine plan, eternal life, or cosmic justice can make suffering seem meaningful—e...

Breaking out off his  Big Ghost Ltd. -produced sophomore effort  Van Ghost , he’s given the underground his last 6 full-lengths as well as 8 EPs & 7 tapes in almost a decade.
