Newsom got a lot of heat from his fellow Democrats for his podcast chats with controversial figures on the right, but a new poll shows he seems to be making headway with a demographic where the left lost ground to President Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans: young men. The governor was undeterred by the criticism, saying that Democrats needed to get out of our own damn bubble on a May episode of his podcast.
Not only did FDR make good on helping the average person, he put a sign on it (literally - think of all those Work Projects Administration logos that still grace our manhole covers and sidewalks) to make sure everyone knew that big, bold government wasn't the problem, but the solution - despite what rich men wanted the public to believe.
The White, benevolent liberal is the most racist person I've ever seen in the history of this country, and many of them don't even know it, Hunt said. The condescending tone in which they address us is utterly ridiculous. That cohort, Hunt said, don't view us as equal at all and by us, I mean Black people. They talk down to us, they think we are too stupid to get an ID to vote,
In his veto message, Newsom said the fee increase made little sense since a car buyer would be paying a dealership for only minutes of data entry. At a time when Californians are already struggling with the high cost of living, Newsom wrote, this bill would raise the document processing fee to three times the current $85 cap far beyond what an inflation adjustment would justify.
Gavin Newsom this week again denied parole for Patricia Krenwinkel, who has spent more than half a century in prison for her role in the 1969 Tate-LaBianca killings orchestrated by Charles Manson and perpetrated by his followers. Nearly five months after California's parole board found the 77-year-old suitable for release, the governor on Monday reversed the decisionand said Krenwinkel currently poses an unreasonable danger to society if released from prison at this time'.
The Friday video is only the latest jab in a duel that's come to epitomize the subterranean lows American political dialogue has reached. Trump has spent the past decade eroding political norms with a constant stream of name-calling, overstatements, outright lies and all-caps social media posts aimed at whoever crosses his mind. Newsom has recently responded in kind, with his own stream of rants and foul-mouthed social media posts, usually aimed at Trump or one of Trump's followers.
On September 20th, presumably in response to Jimmy Kimmel's suspension, the governor tweeted, "BECAUSE OF HIS HORRIFIC MUSIC, CALIFORNIA WILL INDEFINITELY SUSPEND KID ROCK FROM PERFORMING IN THE GOLDEN STATE. YOU'RE WELCOME! - GCN." Over the summer, the governor also posted a fake endorsement poster reading, "Kid Rock Wants You to Support Governor Newsom," to which the musician responded, "The only support Gavin Newscum will ever get out of me is from DEEZ NUTZ."
Masked men jumping out of unmarked cars; people disappearing; no due process; no oversight; zero accountability happening in the United States of America today, Newsom fumed, adding: People ask, Well is authoritarianism you being hyperbolic?' Bullsh*t we're being hyperbolic. If you're black and brown community, it's here in this country.
Masked men jumping out of unmarked cars; people disappearing; no due process; no oversight; zero accountability happening in the United States of America today, he said. People ask, Well is authoritarianism you being hyperbolic?' Bullsh(t we're being hyperbolic. If you're black and brown community, it's here in this country. Newsom argued, These are not just authoritarian tendencies, these are authoritarian actions by an authoritarian government, before saying he would push back if masked ICE agents in an unmarked car tried to apprehend him.
the worst part, though, Charlie no BS, true story literally last night trying to put my son to bed, he's like, No, Dad. I just-, what time? What time's Charlie gonna be here? What time?' And I'm like, dude you're in school tomorrow. He's 13. He's like, No, no.' This morning, wakes up at 6 something, he's like, I'm coming.' I'm like-, he literally would not leave the house, Newsom recalled.
And my state of mind radically changed at that moment. And our media shift [sic] changed. Our research, our clarity, the conditions changed, so we had to change. And we were no longer apologetic about things. I wasn't trying to play nice. And I know a lot of good people play nice. Talk about what you really focused on every day. And people will pay attention to your ten point plan on affordability.
