    May I present, the most ridiculous thing (I hope) you see today:



    AI doesn't always have to be a force for evil, it can be a force for fun.

    on the accusation that he is the troll-in-chief against the Trump MAGA base

    Gavin Newsom says

    I just wanted to put a mirror up to the absurdity of all of this. I wish Dana Perino /Trump mouth pieces on TV
    have made that point months and months, years ago.
    And so I just wanted to challenge that and challenge all these pundits out there, challenge all these people,
    all these acolytes, people that are just fawning over a guy who puts his picture up on Mount Rushmore that does text
    like a 13-year-old or a 10-year-old.

    It’s humiliating, it’s embarrassing. So this is a mirror, and it’s a mirror not just to Trump himself, but to these networks.
    These are the chatbots for the administration. And it’s not just Fox, it’s One America News, it’s Newsmax, and it’s
    all the folks in the right-wing media. And I’m glad they’re melting down over it. Their situational unawareness is
    rather jaw-dropping, and we’ll keep at it.​

    Gavin Newsom calls Donald Trump "leading" socialist of our time




    Newsom slammed Trump's policies, including his recent deal with Intel

    "This guy has completely perverted capitalism, Donald Trump. It's crony capitalism.
    It's whatever, you pay him off, give him a phone call," Newsom said.

    "I mean, these illegal tariffs, which we're also in court on, all the things that are happening in this country,
    this guy is the leading nationalist and socialist of our time," he said.

    House Speaker, from Louisiana, defended Trump use of national guard in CA, and incurred the wrath of Gavin Newsom


    when he he failed to directly address Newsom's claims that Louisiana's murder rate was far higher than California’s amid his support for President Donald Trump’s federal takeover of Washington, D.C.

    “IfHouse Speaker Johnson is to invest in crime suppression, I hope the president would look at the facts; just consider Speaker Johnson's state and district,” Newsom said Thursday during a press conference. “The murder rate [is] nearly four-times higher than California's in Louisiana.”


    johnson had said
    “we have crime in cities all across America, and we're against that everywhere and we need to bring policies to bear. My hometown of Shreveport has done a great job of reducing crime, gradually, but we've got to address it everywhere that it rears its ugly head.”


    Shreveport ranked 18th on 24/7 Wall Street’s “America’s 25 Murder Capitals” list and remains among the nation’s most violent cities, with a murder rate of 21.4 per 100,000 residents, and a violent crime rate of 949 per 100,000. ​

    In 2024, Democrats selected the biggest loser, Kamala Harris. In the same year, they selected the 2nd biggest loser, Joe Biden. In 2016, they selected the 3rd biggest losers, Hillary Clinton.
    Billionaires hate Gavin Newsome. JD Vance is the billionaires biggest yes-man.

    The big question is - Can Trump make it to 2027 for a 10 year JD Vance presidency.

    There's literally nobody with less juice than JD Vance. Seems like everyone has become braindead and forgotten just how shitty he was at campaigning. He almost single handily cost trump the election. Hes a elitist who gives off feminine energy.

    Theres not a chance in hell Vance is able to rebuild the ethnic working class coalition esp when the economy will be in the gutter in 2028. 20 million pelple will lose their insurance by election day 2028

    to neuter Gov Wheelie's effort to redraw Tx's voting maps---responding to an edict from Trump to get 5 more GOP seats---Gavin Newsom has led the way to get Prop 50 on the Calif Nov election. Prop 50 would leave it to the voters to decide if they want to counter Gov Wheelie's manipulaton, by extension Trump, to gain more GOP seats

    [​IMG]
    the battle is on.

    the opposition to Prop 50, by extention Newsom, includes funder Charles Munger Jr, the son of the former vice chairmain of Bershire Hathaway and former House speaker Keven McCarthy, the one that was ousted by Matt Gaetz.

    imo,
    while Munger has deep pocket and a positive reputation,
    Kevin McCarthy has been viewed (outside of his hick town of Bakersfield) as a loser.
    the opposition would fare better if it
    • distances itself from the loser.
    • get former Governator (Arnold) on board, who so far is not on the team
    the prop 50 team has been spearheaded by Newsom and supported by Netflix founder Reed Hastings

    imo

    as long as Schwarzenegger is not part of the opposition team, Prop 50 has a good chance to pass​

    For people interested in actual facts:
    California voted 58% to 38% in the last presidential election in favor of Harris. The California House delegation is 43 to 9 (83% to 17%).
    Texas voted 56% to 42% in the last presidential election in favor of Trump. The Texas House delegation is 25 to 12 (68% to 32%).
    California is already far more Gerrymandered than Texas. Even if 5 Dem seats were flipped to the GOP, that would make it 30 to 7 (81% to 19%), or roughly as Gerrymandered as California. Newsom isn't mad that Texas is trying to get a leg up, he is mad that they are pushing for parity.
