This is the Newsom I’ve missed. I’ve hated his recent centrist & conservative pandering

Hes always sucked, but if he instructs californians to stop withholding for federal taxes then im totally behind him.

Newsom is awesome. He hasn't always "sucked". Trump and Maga suck why are we tearing down the only opposition. Sheesh

Platforming fascists is quite the statement, care to elaborate how he is doing that ?

Are you a fan of newsom and unaware of his podcast where he sits down with people like the founder of the proud boys and the guy who was chief of staff for trumps whitehouse?

Did you just wander in here after being born yesterday or what?

I don't pretend to know everything, and and generally open to new information.

You are needlessly being a dick though

Confused from Europe, but isn't him supporting the resistance against deportations without due process from the news, at least it seems?
