California Doing California Things

He also say Brandon was the best president the US has had in the past 100 years!!! Brandon?!!! ffs
Well, I am forced to agree with you there, that's monumentally stupid. Even a total blithering idiot should know that there has never been a US President called Brandon.
 
The 4th largest economy in the world

California is one of 23 states suing President Donald Trump’s administration trying to force it to use emergency money to cover food benefits for millions of poor families during the federal government shutdown, Gov. Gavin Newsom and Attorney General Rob Bonta said Tuesday. More than five million Californians rely on the program each month, known in California as CalFresh, nationally as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program and colloquially as food stamps. The federally-funded benefits amount to about $1 billion delivered to Californians’ electronic benefits cards each month to spend on groceries

News

California, highest unemployment, highest poverty, highest tax, highest gas prices, highest energy prices in the country.
So, what?
So what if the 4th largest economy in the world has 3 million people reliant on food handouts, the highest poverty rate, highest unemployment, highest tax
What’s the solution? GOP final solution like FOX News proposed?
 
In yet another demonstration of Newsom’s disdain for democracy, Newsom got his pet project of redrawing congressional districts on the ballot and the dumb clucks in California voted yes. Newsom used California people’s hatred of Trump to pass this dog shit proposition. And really this whole charade is about Newsom and his image about being tough and standing up to Trump as part of his strategy to win the democratic nomination. What an insufferable prick this man is. But I suspect he is going be even worse as time goes on.

Why does he feel the need to "stand up to Trump" on districting in particular? What prompted this?

At least we got to vote on it.
 
The New York Times has done a great article on California home insurance and how insufferable prick Gavin Newsom and the California insurance commissioner Ricardo Lara screwed things up.

NYT
 
See, if you were capable of delivering meaningful critique without sounding like a fucking NY Post scumdragger, we could actually have a conversation about that one. It was mishandled.

Do you truly believe that sounding like a unlettered child, on purpose, somehow makes your arguments stronger? I know you are in fact capable of typing the word "Gavin" without also appending "insufferable prick". Like you may be an immigrant, but you clearly speak at least some English. Why do you insist on typing like an twelve year old on his first snort of cocaine, instead of like the adult that you are? It just distracts from your real point, even when you've actually got one for a change.
 
While insufferable prick governor of California Gavin Newsom virtue signals at COP30,

Authorities on Sunday are investigating after a man and dog were shot in San Francisco. San Francisco police closed off the area around 4th and Market Streets near San Francisco Center. The shooting happened around 4:30 p.m. The man was taken to the hospital. Two other people, including a police officer, had minor injuries. It's unknown from what injuries. But they declined to be taken to the hospital.

Most likely this is going to be one of the mental patients in California's open air psychiatric ward causing havoc.
 
More corruption in Newsom's California

Dana Williamson, Gov. Gavin Newsom's former chief of staff, was indicted on federal charges alleging she was involved in a scheme to steal campaign money from former federal Health Secretary Xavier Becerra. The federal indictment lists four other co-conspirators. It alleges that Williamson, 53, developed a plan with Sean McCluskie, a longtime Becerra aide, to siphon money from one of Becerra's dormant state campaign accounts to give to McCluskie to pad his salary after he accepted a job as his chief of staff in Washington.

Wow! That Newsom guy has so much he is responsible for I don't know how he does it.

Swiz can't find matching socks. Newsom did it.

Swiz morning toast is a little dark. Newsom did it.

Swiz got a flat tire. Newsom did it.

Swiz goes to bed than realizes he has to pee. Newsom did it.

I don’t think Newsom is directly responsible for those things (even if Swiz’s does), but the fact that The Others are grossing him out, is unforgivable for a rightly civilized gentleman.
 
California Assemblyman Carl DeMaio, R-San Diego, requested a federal investigation into possible wrongdoing and fiduciary negligence at the California Public Employees' Retirement System regarding its clean energy fund losses that were exposed in an investigation by The Center Square. The Center Square’s investigation found CalPERS lost 71% of its $468 million taxpayer-funded investment in a clean energy and technology private equity fund. This type of investment often is referred to as ESG – or Environmental, Social and Governance – which critics argue prioritizes progressive policies over the fiduciary responsibility of such funds to maximize returns.

How much was the original investment in the fund?

When did the losses start to occur?

Can the losses be related to Trump's rejection of Clean energy projects across the country?
 
The city of Oakland facing possible bankruptcy due to local leaders' virtue signaling

Oakland is on the hook for potentially hundreds of millions of dollars in damages after a federal bankruptcy court judge ruled Monday that the city “tortiously interfered” with a developer’s efforts to build a coal terminal. Insight Terminal Solutions subleased property from another company, Oakland Bulk and Oversized Terminal, on Oakland’s waterfront years ago hoping to operate a marine export terminal that would ship coal to overseas markets. But under pressure from city residents and activists opposed to turning Oakland into a major exporter of fossil fuels, city officials took numerous steps to prevent Oakland Bulk and Oversized Terminal and Insight Terminal Solutions from constructing the terminal, federal bankruptcy court Judge Joan A. Lloyd wrote in a decision published yesterday. What exactly Oakland will have to pay will be determined at a future hearing, according to the latest ruling. But the judgment could be staggering: in previous court filings, Insight has argued that it is owed damages worth $673,658,000. In a deposition, the city’s own expert conceded that damages could be at least $230 million.

You believe the city should not gave "interefered" with the construction of the terminal? Why? Do you always support mafia interests over democratic rule, or just when it's in Oakland?

Are you happy that the city of Oakland is liable for hundreds of millions of dollars in damages?

Of course not, they have every right to try and block a major and injurious change to their city's waterline, made without their consent and against the will of their citizens. What should they be "liable" for? This company and their crime boss buddies claim this is all about breach of contract, but the city never signed a contract to let them build a coal terminal. You own a house, I assume, but that doesn't give you the right to operate a toxic waste dump out of your backyard.
