    pretty amusing analysis of what Newsom does here. If this assessment is true, Newsom was literally talking to the President at the same time Biden was delivering the eulogy at Jimmy Carter's funeral.

    Turn Out The Lights, Gavin's Party's Over

    https://hotair.com/generalissimo/2025/01/10/turn-out-the-lights-gavins-partys-over-n3798664

    excerpt:

    "I'm literally talking to the President right now." He says that to this woman while looking at his phone, not talking on his phone. He doesn't have an earpiece in. His phone is merely a prop being used to get him out of an uncomfortable conversation with a constituent. How do I know he's not literally talking to the President right now? Because Joe Biden was at the funeral service for former President Jimmy Carter, and he had a televised briefing with Kamala Harris immediately after that, or as immediate as an 82-year old Sundowner's patient can afford.

    Also, I know he was not literally talking to the President right now, because this happened next. . . .

    ***
    Woops. She doesn't believe Gavin Newsom when he told her he's literally talking to Joe Biden, and he's talking to him specifically about her. She calls him on it. She wants to listen in on the conversation. Newsom stammers, points at his phone for the third time as though he's an Apple sales associate showing off the new camera lenses, and lies to her for the third time in 20 seconds. Now, instead of him not literally being on the phone with the President talking to him about what he can do for this woman and her daughter, he's tried five times to call the President. You'll forgive my skepticism here, but I don't believe him.

    Every governor in the country has access to a satellite phone in order to be able to communicate in a disaster zone when cell towers are obviously overused or not working because they burned or the power is out. For Newsom to point to his cellphone and essentially say, 'drat the luck, I have no signal here, I need to go drive somewhere to get better coverage,' is Newsom blowing her off. Again, not a trace, not a scintilla of compassion is shown here.

    This lying sack of crap needs to resign ASAP. California is a failed state. We need to do a thorough investigation into what the hell is going in California and prosecute all those Dems for destroying that beautiful state.

    Democrats are deadly to humans, pets, properties and the environment.

    Los Angeles and California used part of their budgets to send money to Ukraine?

    Yes, California has allocated portions of its state budget to provide aid to Ukraine, particularly in response to the Russian invasion that began in 2022. This assistance has included the shipment of medical supplies, protective gear, and other humanitarian aid.

    In May 2022, the state shipped five 50-bed field medical stations and thousands of pieces of protective gear to Ukraine. Governor Gavin Newsom stated, "Our support will save lives and help the people of Ukraine as they experience unspeakable atrocities."

    Governor of California


    Additionally, several California fire departments have donated firefighting equipment to Ukraine. For example, in March 2022, the Los Angeles County Fire Department gathered and donated surplus equipment, including hoses, nozzles, helmets, and body armor, to assist Ukrainian first responders.

    Newsweek


    These efforts are part of California's longstanding partnership with Ukraine through the California–Ukraine National Guard Partnership, established in 1993. This program has facilitated various forms of cooperation, including military training and humanitarian assistance.

    Wikipedia


    It's important to note that while California has provided aid to Ukraine, the state has also faced significant budget challenges in recent years. For instance, in 2024, California addressed a budget deficit of approximately $56 billion by utilizing reserves and making spending cuts.

    CalMatters


    Despite these fiscal challenges, California's contributions to Ukraine have been relatively modest compared to federal aid. The U.S. has provided substantial assistance to Ukraine, including over $43 billion in military aid since the invasion began.

    CBS News


    In summary, California has used portions of its budget to send aid to Ukraine, focusing on humanitarian assistance and support for first responders, while managing its own fiscal challenges.
