California Governor Gavin Newsom Cancels High-speed Rail: ‘Would Cost Too Much and Take Too Long’

I don’t know about Dianne Feinstein’s husband’s dealings, nothing would surprise me... but there is a fair enough degree of likelihood that Newsome will get to appoint her successor. She is 86 years old and just won another term. Does anyone think she can sit another 6 years in the Senate? And if she can make it to 92, Newsome will likely be in his 2nd term and could run for the seat himself; assuming she completes the term.

So he owes her no fealty at this point. He’s probably/possibly gonna replace her at some point.

In fact, being CA, I think he could even appoint himself to her seat (?)

Yes, I think your right.
I voted for Cox, hoping he would get to appoint Fstains seat. I voted for Fstain because the other jerkoff was way lefty lefty coo coo... and there might have been a snowflakes chance in hades the Cox would win. Well that didn’t happen.... but soon Gavin will get to appoint whoever, maybe himself.... Im not up on the laws here in CA about a senator stepping down... I hate living here. Its only getting worse. Here we are, going to spend 3 billion to not give it back to trump... (it aint trumps money) and Im like thinking ok good at least we (CA) arent spending 80 billion or whatever on this boondoggle.. I donno it reminds me of some casino game.... play $30 to save / win back your $10..... lol I’m sorry for ramblin...

Haven’t they already spent 20 years and 30 billion dollars working on this thing?

[FlingWingFlyer]

Newsom must have bought of on Cortex’s prediction that we’ve only got 12 years left due to cow farts.

[Blue Highway]

And maybe reclaim some of that $2.5 billion for the wall!

Merced is the gateway to Yosemite.

“Trump should order an immediate forensic accounting audit of the $2.5 billion Federal “subsidy” given to this “project”. He’ll snare most of the Democratic Party leadership and put them in prison”

DiFi’s husband would be at the top of that list.

Oh c’mon, you people really have no vision.

When in the near future half of CA breaks of and floats into the Pacific, Voila! Bakersfield and Merced become the new LA and SF.

And then there can be the multi trillion dollar chunnel to West California.

Call me crazy now but you’ll see ...

Be gentle...

Proverbs 24:17-18

Do not gloat when your enemy falls, and do not let your heart rejoice when he stumbles,
or the LORD will see and disapprove, and turn His wrath away from him.

[Ann Archy]

But....But....what about having NO PLANES, GAVIE GRUESOME?? Just HOW are we supposed to get around??

[Elsie]

How Can They Keep the $7.5 Billion Bond Money?

He'll need it to make up for what will be lacking in the amount flowing from DC to Sacramento.

[MCF]

The Democrat’s buddies have already made a ton f money off of the project so it has served its purpose.

[Elsie]

Meanwhile; in Japan...

[Daniel Ramsey]

So instead restore a few steam locomotives with period correct passenger cars.

[LouAvul]

What kind of ridership are they expecting on that?

Habla espanole?

[Lee'sGhost]

Journalism 101: “California Governor Gavin Newsom announced Tuesday...” You don’t announce to everyone it’s Tuesday, It’s, “California Governor Gavin Newsom Tuesday announced...”

[Sicon]

He’ll snare most of the Democratic Party leadership and put them in prison.

Very nearly ZERO chance that a single democrat “leader” will ever go to prison, for anything.

[Eleutheria5]

“He said the state would not send $3.5 billion back to the federal government to be spent by President Donald Trump.”

You don’t get to keep federal money. Either use it for its specified purpose, or give it back. Build a choochoo or let Trump use it to finish the wall.

[Uncle Miltie]

Willie Green is deeply saddened somewhere.

[Albion Wilde]

Too bad he didn’t have the Trump Organization build it, on time and under budget.
