There’s certainly something very sleazy about him.

Now I get it. Just give him a break and he’ll fix it. He’s got the rats. Just peel off a few of us. Pretty smart.

Damn straight. Those damn advocates are down their carrying foreign citizen invaders across the river and into America on their backs. The La Raza boyz posse. I read the “medias” anti-American celebratory piece of garbage this morning where the Media is joyously claiming that Abbott’s buoys can’t stop the Mexicans from illegally coming into Texas. They are easily and illegally coming around the buoys. So, I guess the advocate azzhos don’t need to have the buoys removed after all. The Illegals can use them as pitstops coming across the river.

the liberals that elected him and the legislature did it. He is only doing what people elected him to do, if people want this nightmare to end, they simply have to vote for people who will end it.

I blame the lone single republican somewhere in San Fransicko...

Sorry, but he moved out of state last week before they could issue the indictment for him being a white Christian nationalist.

Newsom is an empty suit who will say anything in his campaign to win the most votes. He has already measured the WH curtains.

Gruesom is as slimy and untrustworthy as any Democrat, but as another fellow Freeper noted earlier in this thread, the man has no ideology you can pin him down to. This slimy reptile would be a serious threat to win the presidency if he were to be nominated instead of Sleepy Joe. He has the ability to be whatever he has to be to fool those squishes in the middle! A RAT with slicked hair to match!

Oh, that “MAGA” guy who attacked Paul Pelosi? Yeah, probably his fault.

This is actually a really smart way for Newsome to handle this.

Homelessness is obviously a huge problem for any Democrat from CA.

But he is turning this into a Sister Soulja moment where he shows centerist voters he is a “moderate” when he takes on the leftist activists in his own party and in the legal system.

He also gets “candor points” or “authenticity points” from voters by up front admitting there is a big problem and not minimizing it.

By blaming it ultimately on liberals in Federal Courts, he sets the stage for him supporting federal legislation to limit their jurisdiction, which sets up another fight with Democrat left activists- which is good for him to appeal to centrists.

https://apnews.com/article/lawsuits-oakland-9685f0a4350f8eb45602417ad334006f

And it gives him an argument that as Mayor and Governor, he was constrained by Federal Court decisions, and so now he has to go into the White House to fix it.

(All nonsense of course, but this guy is cleverly turning a huge liability into a positive)

Gearing up for a run. He can see Cottage Cheese Brain Biden is not going to make it, either by health, or by impeachment or investigation.

They are casting about for the 2024 candidate.

Any time some scum-sucking a-hole like Newsome begins to throw shade at his fellow travelers, that is the first thing at hand.

And one more thing-his fellow travelers don’t care. They are likely on-board with it.

Gee, maybe he could stop the various state handouts that subsidize the street life style. Maybe he could arrest drug dealers. Maybe could arrest vagrants. Maybe that would help.

Makes you wonder what that disabled vet who was shot by the FBI in his mother’s home said.

Actually, probably didn’t say anything. They just felt like murdering him.

And the leader of that pack was... Newsom.

Think they aren’t doing exactly what he wanted them to do?

And yet, he and the other democRATS will continue to fund the MASSIVE Homeless Industrial Complex. They put homeless and illegal trespassers in some of the best San Francisco hotels. They BROUGHT drugs and alcohol to their hotel rooms. San Francisco style room service.

Reminds me of the 1990s Welfare to Work. The Republicans took over the House of Representatives for the first time in 40 years. Clinton fought it until he realized he would lose. I joined some private entities in helping people find work. The public employees we interacted with hated it. As long as their caseload needed ‘help’ the welfare staff were justified. As more and more people went to work, these staff had to find something else to occupy their time. They provided one little office in their expansive building. We quickly learned not to leave anything of value in the office, as it would be gone the next day. Lovely people.

He is clever, indeed. A very dangerous attribute in an ambitious, amoral, and politically competent scumbag. Our saving grace is that Hillary wasn’t clever but wasn’t aware of it.

“Sista Soulja”.

He’s running for POTUS.

Bill Clinton would be proud.
