You come on so strong it's impossible to agree with you even when I agree with you...
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.He also say Brandon was the best president the US has had in the past 100 years!!! Brandon?!!! ffs
What’s the solution? GOP final solution like FOX News proposed?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 taxSo, what?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

California, highest unemployment, highest poverty, highest tax, highest gas prices, highest energy prices in the country.
Why does he feel the need to "stand up to Trump" on districting in particular? What prompted this?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.
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.
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.
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.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.
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?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.

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?The city of Oakland facing possible bankruptcy due to local leaders' virtue signaling

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.You believe the city should not gave "interefered" with the construction of the terminal?The city of Oakland facing possible bankruptcy due to local leaders' virtue signaling
