Although Gov. Newsom delivered a much needed, robust, and blunt retort to Trump's authoritarian crackdown in L.A., words alone won't be enough to resist an increasingly fascist regime.
i totally disagree with you on Gavin Newsom. I am a California Native & have lived in CA my entire life. There has never been a CA governor who perfectly represents all levels of all residents & voters of our state. That is impossible. CA governors lead ALL CA residents. Newsom does a good job.
Where are our Democrats serving the state in Sacramento? Our Federal Democrats serving in DC? Why are you not making your voices heard. Nancy Pelosi spoke out. Where is everybody else? Silence is NOT an option! Use your platforms! Use your voice! Speak up and out! There is no time to waste. The state is under siege by our own government.
I cannot believe that 75 Dems thanked ICE❗️WTF One of the masked ICE agents tied up a woman & robbed a store. Who are these masked men? THEY ARE the criminals‼️
Jared, don't say, "Everybody understands this." Everybody who is a good person and pays attention knows, but the majority of Americans are tuned out. While Trump's approval rating is below 50%, it's not far below, when it should no higher that in the teens or even single digits. (Realistically, there will always be more people than that who are on the wrong side. What is tragic in the US is that there are so many Americans who support the wrong people and party because they are either stupid, ignorant, or not paying attention.)
Which is more than can be said for the NAZI in the White House. This is your 1933 moment, where you either show the trumpty dumpty DICTATORSHIP the door or suffer the consequences, with his STURMTRUPPEN and their cronies TERRORISING communities. Rise up against the tyrant and his NAZI henchmen if you want to be FREE, or America will become the next fascist dictatorship !
You guys are so good ! It’s awesome that you tell it like it is . Never having lived anywhere but my small town area of Pa , even though I travel all over the world , it’s not the same as living there . It’s interesting to hear about these areas in LA , your past history , your opinions , your ideas . And I do believe you are sadly correct on the violence escalating and people will be killed . I’m going to a town near me to protest this Saturday . And I’m somewhat nervous , this will be my second protest against Trump , never having protested ever before . I am just so angry at ICE , everything about them , Trump who should be impeached and thrown in prison . There is so much to be angry at I can’t even to begin to list them all . God Bless our country
I was tear-gassed in Tacoma WA during a protest against the Iraq war. It was used against anti Vietnam war protesters in the 60s. It was used against WTO protesters in Seattle in the 1990s. This is not a new phenomenon
It *is* a new phenomenon because this time it is being used against people causing no disruption and because it is being pushed by an insane buffoon of a President who is not only interfering in a State issue that was under control but using the National Guard and the Military to do it.
Photos of our military show, who the commander-in-chief thoughtlessly did NOT consult any military leaders to know how to send Marines, what's needed. Those Marines had to sleep on bare floors in the military garb, NO blankets. No pillows. No food. No planning... What a horrible way to treat anyone, let alone people who had to pick up & leave their lives, to be there for a phony trumped up crisis
My late Marine husband would refuse to go but he would hate it here. Badly disabled & bedridden he passed in mid 2018 & missed all the horror of the 1st term. Leaving was his silver lining.🙏🏼
I live in Ca. And Newsom is an outstanding Governor. Yes, Cal. was the 5th largest economy in the world, thanks to Gavin, now Ca. Has the 4th largest economy in the World.
I don't understand why so many people in the non-GOP sphere have such animosity to Newsom. He is literally the only Democrat who has demonstrated he has the guts and communication skills to go up against not just Trump but his ecosystem of trolls. He gives as good or better than he gets and does it in clear plain language.
I remember the Hannity interview in 2024(?) where he deconstructed every talking point with clear evidence and communicated it well. Only AOC and Crockett have similar skills that come across as straight talking.
No one is perfect but whoever rises needs to be a fighter who can communicate.
We lost the election based on voters having a single reason to select a candidate or often better or worse lack of options. No candidate should be "canonized" for doing their job. We deserve better but to get better we need to demand more from candidates. Stop picking career politicians, that takes more work from us
Us blue states need to start putting our own militias together especially the big cities if we don’t this country is going down and lost forever it’s the truth act or we lose
The one thing I keep going back to is how Newsome called out the National Guard and stationed soldiers all over downtown Sacramento… Striking a menacing pose on street corners to intimidate BLM protesters. When the atmosphere was quite mellow. There were no Portland level militant shenanigans going down. There were hundreds of CHP standing shoulder to shoulder encircling the entire capital. Either he was responding to some intense, credible threat, not publicly known… Or he was very afraid of moms and their kids holding signs. For weeks.

Who are these democrats who praised ICE?! We need to vote them out! This cannot abide!

ABC, CBS, and NBC should be shut down. I am amazed that they can create any content since they are groveling full time at the feet of Trump.

You just reminded me - why I never listen to you.

Two words for you to savour in your ignorance - SIEG HEIL
Sorry Governor but our “democracy “ is over. We’re a fascist oligarchy now.
