At the stroke of midnight on Dec. 31 of this year, Gov. Gavin Newsom will begin celebrating the 20th anniversary of his 10-year plan to end homelessness in San Francisco…YEAH BUDDY!
Now, our illustrious governor says he has a plan to end homelessness in California…YEAH BUDDY!
On a recent trip to China, Newsom met with Chinese President Xi Jinping to discuss strategies to combat global warming. Not quite as recently, Newsom appeared in a video where he proclaimed to the whole world how he is “proud to be on team Biden/Harris.”
Now that (investigative journalist and political writer) Seymour Hersh—and his extremely well-protected sources inside the Pentagon—have pretty much proved that President Joe Biden is the one who blew up the Nord Stream 2 pipelines, which caused the largest single release of methane in human history, the concept that Newsom could ever care about global warming is laughable.
Like many other corrupt politicians in California, Newsom’s rise to power in the Golden State was necessitated by selling out to the growth machine, which, in the United States, is directly or indirectly responsible for 40% of all greenhouse gasses emitted into the atmosphere. Worldwide, that figure goes up to 50%!
Newsom recently approved the construction of the Sites Reservoir in Glenn and Colusa counties, which, according to scientists, will produce about 362,000 metric tons of methane due to decomposing organic material under the lake and won’t do much to solve any water problems.
If one looks at Newsom’s face long enough, one can almost see the dollar signs in his eyes. Perhaps it is time for all good Californians to wake up and realize that politicians like Newsom will always sell out faster than tickets to a Rolling Stones concert.
Now, more than ever, is the time for a brand new third party. What better place to start that third party than in one of the most corrupt states in the union? I could help with that, but I cannot do it alone.
