Pretty sure that's what Republicans are saying to Democrats.

The amount of grift and graft in CA is astounding. The idea that Gavin "French Laundry" Newsom isn't apart of it is quite hilarious on your part.

Imagine making a high speed rail system and never talking to the train car manufacturers LMAO that train was never going to see the light of day.

It's funny Gavin is gifted a $9 million dollar home, and pulls out idk how many millions in tax free loans.

The exact playbook snoofy gets so upset about, and it's crickets from Lumpers.

There's so much slush money in the State no one says anything. Swalwell was hopeing his dalliance with the Asian persuasion wouldn't ruin it, he could have gotten his hands on some of it

Always fascinating when a Slurper accidentally tells the truth.

In the last five years this source claims his popularity has steadily increased from 63% to 83% (nearly double what the President currently has).

He's referencing a New York Post article.

It's pathetic.

But that's what we've come to expect from him.

One sees all this and one hopes against hope that the Dems take back both Houses of Congress, and so finally present the Trump debacle in all its greed and con games in investigation after impeachment.

My local California MAGA hates Newsom. Still smarting from spending $276,000,000 to remove him from office. Which failed. Now Lawfare by the felon administration to keep him out of the 2028 Presidential campaign. (not my choice either but...)

Dirty Tricks Division of the MAGA cult. No word on the grift and graft of the Felon Presidency as yet.
