it's the "rules for thee, not for me" approach to governance that we see all too often. It eventually catches up to these would-be dictators, but not before it inflicts real damage on their constituents. I wish this would be addressed at the ballot box, but Dems never fail to advance their incompetent and corrupt officials up the food chain. Kamala is exhibit 1. Adam Schiff is exhibit 2. Alex Padilla - #3
I don’t believe people vote for him - they amassed enough signatures to put a recall on the ballot. CA has mail-in voting (and the disastrous ranked choice voting as well). All elections are fraudulent there. What is dumbfounding is that not one lawsuit has been filed about either situation - neither the illegal mail-in-voting edict nor the clearly unconstitutional ranked choice voting.
Over 50% of California is on Medi-Cal so over half the voters in California are either elites that are unaffected by these riots or they are dependent on the government and anyone who runs against Newdome will lose because they undoubtedly will threaten to decrease the government assistance.
Very important statistics (says the former math teacher who likes statistics) Too bad more voters don't consider these numbers when they cast their ballots.
Why is Newsom considered the front runner presidential candidate for the dem’s 2028 nomination?
What has he accomplished? How so is he qualified to lead our great nation? What gives him the right to even through his hat in the ring? And please don’t say something like “fund raising ability” or “name recognition”
Tell me one significant thing he has even done, or better yet, generate a comprehensive list of everything he has done during the last 25 years, let’s see what he’s made of. Newsom is a prime example of what kind of cream rises to the top in our corrupt political parties. Is this the best that the Dems can do? This isn’t a movie.
Unfortunately, for the Democrtats he is more capable than President Auto-pen. Fortunately, for the Republicans he is only marginally more capable than President Auto-pen.
As a CA resident I can't wait for the negative ads that will visually expose the damage that this narcistic self-serving idiot has done to a once great State.
Not really, but good try. Trump is working within the law to enact his agenda. All Presidents assert executive authority with policy, but Biden flaunted it to forgive student loan debt in a cynical re-election ploy. He also oversaw a massively corrupt family operation that peddled influence and laundered money. Lest I forget, he kept loads of classified docs from his time in the Senate and VP.
Working within the law? How many times have judges shot him down? Now he claims that as president, he gets to choose which laws to ignore?
Biden? With the current SCOTUS ruling, student loa forgiveness would have occurred, and that level of presidential power is waiting for the next Democratic president.
As for the Biden family, you've got the echo chamber talking points down cold. And you're ignoring the billions the Saudi's have poured into the Trump coffers.
I'm sure you meant to reference the hundreds of boxes of classified documents stored in bathrooms at Mar-a-Lago.
Gavin Newsom has no moral fiber. He is an empty vessel into which anything can be poured including cabernet. All of us normal people expect that some morning he will suddenly change as if by some epiphany occurring as he stands in front of his mirror shaving. That will never happen. He is a sociopath.
Newsom is attempting to replicate the success of JFK and Clinton. Sexually promiscuous with a handsome image, but will hopefully end up as Gary Hart. Unlike JFK and Clinton, he is, as another commented, an ‘empty vessel’.
Allegedly, (according to law school assistants at City Hall), Newsom would have sex with female employees in his office when he was Mayor. If he accomplished anything meaningful for San Francisco (or California) it wouldn't be that big a deal. But he continues to philander in his current marriage, and it doesn't appear to be an important issue for anyone.
Trump is all over the Epstein files. They’re tons of republican reps that are pro life yet have mistresses who have abortions - take Rep Dr. Desjalais - while married had 6 sexual relationships at his center in Jasper, Tennessee. Among them were three co-workers, two patients and a drug representative. He has opposition to legal abortion, DesJarlais encouraged his ex-wife to terminate two pregnancies and encouraged a former patient with whom he was having an affair to get an abortion.
Let’s try to stay on topic, here, Pug. We’re talking about Gavin, not the Epstein files, not trump, not abortion or pro-lifers or anything else but greasy Gavin in the grapes while LA burned.
The question is, was Desjalais a good representative for his constituents? Newsom once admitted to hating San Francisco (he lives in Marin, which is 1000% white like Provo, Utah). As mayor he never visited neighborhoods and didn't recognize any of them as being in San Francisco. The only time he made any type of "impact" or presence in the community was during the fauxdemic and when Shi Jinping visited. That's it.
Well shoot Chris, what did you expect, for Newsom to be on the front lines leading the riots and throwing Molotov cocktails himself? All that heat and flames would have ignited his petroleum based hair products and he’d have been a Roman candle in no time. Much safer to lead from behind in Napa.
Don't count on it. Unfortunately, I see and hear people every day who vote for him...and they simply aren't very bright. Thankfully, the rest of the nation will throw him into the dust bin of history.
....and he sipped wine during the COVID lockdowns, yet magically, he continues to get reelected. Either Californians get what they deserve, or the elections are rigged (especially the one against Larry Elder).
So, what are Americans gonna do about it? Everyone knows the problems. No one is offering solutions. Why?
It has to start at the local level. Where I live we have precinct meetings. We have a county election board. They always need volunteers. Make your voices heard.
One of the things that TRump will hopefully do is cutoff funds for the California Bullet Train. Hopelessly corrupt agency and California officials awarded the contract to the incredibly corrupt contractor who typically bids low and then piles on change orders which political appointees approve.
One of the reasons the contractor got the job is that Nancy Pelosi's husband was on the board of the contractor and walked away with around $10 million.
As Dan Bongino used to ask: "Is it bad enough yet?" Unfortunately the intolerable situation has to hit bottom--hard...before voters start to notice change is needed
When you have no moral or ethical basis from which to draw, only a never-ending quest for greed and to remain in power, it is not surprising that he did this, as Los Angeles burned. He is an empty, pathetic suit. Too bad so many Californians have continued to be fooled by his destructive, foolish nonsense and keep him in office.
What can one say? Voters are stupid. Easily distracted with the promise of free stuff or a phony threat to their continuing to get free stuff. He easily beat the recall effort and was re-elected. There was a reason the founding fathers avoided direct election of senators and moderated the popular vote for president with electoral votes.
Why would anyone expect anything different from slick Willy? He is a narcissistic talking turd. I truly hope he keeps up his behavior, comments of stupidity and ignorance and his professional level of incompetence. I’m looking forward to someone garnering less support from their party than Kamala Harris.— that’s how disastrous the democratic machine is currently.— Fight on boys and girls or girls who wanna be boys, or is it the boys that wanna be girls?— nobody knows anymore.—
We are in an era of politics where it’s not about accountability related to one’s own side. It’s about never ceding ground to the opposing party, especially with anything related to Trump, even if it means you’ve got to sit around and choke on your own farts. In this case, progressive policies and those who push them are the farts of the Democratic Party.. that part is literally choking on their resistance to Trump and the whole country can smell it.. everything from boys in girls sports, to the border, to blaming the riots on the people who legally have the authority to deport illegal immigrants.. we can all see how the Democrat party is choking on its own progressive farts. But they won’t give it up, because it looks like ceding ground to Trump.
I agree. He and AOC would make the perfect candidates for the Democrats. Their motto could be “We will continue the progressive agenda once we find it.”
Bc media will not report the story or publish the photos any attempt to editorialize facts will be futile. It’s a common tactic of the left to Expect silence from the media.

And half of the people will still vote for him.
Half the people would vote for a chimpanzee if he claimed to be an America-hating woke Democrat

Mail-in Voting & Biden kept newSCAM in office!
Over 50% of California is on Medi-Cal so over half the voters in California are either elites that are unaffected by these riots or they are dependent on the government and anyone who runs against Newdome will lose because they undoubtedly will threaten to decrease the government assistance.
Everyone in my neighborhood “BEVERLY HILLS ADJACENT” is on the Gov’t dole!! That’s WHY they vote Dem..🤑
Correct. The piggy trough is getting empty in this one-party dictatorship, and the dems are running out of money. What will they do next?
What riots? Neither the National Guard nor the Marines has engaged.
Very important statistics (says the former math teacher who likes statistics) Too bad more voters don't consider these numbers when they cast their ballots.
As Joseph de Maistre said, “Every nation gets the government it deserves.“
And as Mencken said, good and hard.
More than half in CA
Help me out here.

I'm afraid this IS a movie. He has good looks and good hair. As long as his hair gel holds out, he is the Dems most likely '28 candidate.
Rules for thee, not for me, sounds just like our President.
Not really, but good try. Trump is working within the law to enact his agenda. All Presidents assert executive authority with policy, but Biden flaunted it to forgive student loan debt in a cynical re-election ploy.

Newsom is so oily, so phony. He deserves every bit of scorn he receives.

Far removed from all the damage he dumps on the people.
Not only is he a sociopath, he has been trained by two 1st class sociopaths, Nancy Pelosi and Willie Brown. The queen and king of dirty democrats.
Allegedly, (according to law school assistants at City Hall), Newsom would have sex with female employees in his office when he was Mayor. If he accomplished anything meaningful for San Francisco (or California) it wouldn't be that big a deal.

He's a not so bright, entitled, narcissist.
This is the same dude who refused to wear a mask at a restaurant while his health dept was dishing out fines for not wearing.
He didn't want to smear his make-up.
😅 🔥
But your ok with dudes wearing masks while kidnapping people.
No, I do not support Antifa or the KKK, those are Newsom’s people.
Troll.
Well shoot Chris, what did you expect, for Newsom to be on the front lines leading the riots and throwing Molotov cocktails himself? All that heat and flames would have ignited his petroleum based hair products and he’d have been a Roman candle in no time. Much safer to lead from behind in Napa.
Maybe one day his constituents will finally notice what ALL of their politicians are doing to them and vote them OUT of office.
That will be a glorious day, so glorious that I won't even mind using a golf umbrella to shelter from the droppings of all the flying pigs.
Hope those flying pigs show up soon

A good use of our energy would be to push for and help with --required voter I D

Larry Elder screwed us in San Diego. He accepted money from the Republican Women and then when the time was right...he refused to run.
Newsom has the countenance of a psychopath.
Do you repeat everything Trump says?!

Nero but grapes
I’m beginning to see a pattern here.
Newsom is the poster boy for the Progressive Big Club - the club that you and I ain't in.
What can one say? Voters are stupid. Easily distracted with the promise of free stuff or a phony threat to their continuing to get free stuff. He easily beat the recall effort and was re-elected. There was a reason the founding fathers avoided direct election of senators and moderated the popular vote for president with electoral votes.
I question if the Leaders of the Recall Effort in San Diego sabatoged it.

Vote for Steve Hilton
Maybe it's just me, but he's too much like the last Canadian PM for my liking.

Never interrupt your enemy when he is doing damage to himself.
He’s just creating campaign ads for his opponents. Like Kamala’s “they/them”. Keep at it, Gavin!
I agree. He and AOC would make the perfect candidates for the Democrats. Their motto could be “We will continue the progressive agenda once we find it.”
Bc media will not report the story or publish the photos any attempt to editorialize facts will be futile. It’s a common tactic of the left to Expect silence from the media.
At least they reported on the Angelinos that were “just having fun watching cars burn”. Nothing more than a social gathering. Nothing to see here.
