Canadians Reject Gavin Newsom
I'll visit California when it's a province of Canada
Do you really want our population doubled that quickly? Keep in mind 50% of our country would now basically be Americans.
No thanks.
Yeah people keep saying California should be a province of Canada which is ridiculous. Why not suggest something that's plausible?
California should be it's own country. It's got a higher population than Canada and a much larger economy. They'd no longer need to continue subsidizing states that are happy when the guy they put into power denies them emergency aid in a disaster. They could have their own emergency relief fund they'd administer themselves, and they could set their own immigration policy.
They can be like puerto rico and just don‘t get any representation in major parts of the government.
It's not just Kilmar, there's been several other reports of international visitors being detained for no reason, like this Canadian who was detained for 12 days. No, I'd rather not chance spending my vacation in jail for no reason, thanks.
Gavin Newsom can go fuck himself. Sorry fellas, we don't want to give you our money anymore.
No, no, you're good. Speaking as a Californian, Gavin absolutely can go fuck himself. He's the crown prince of shitlibs, he's like if you distilled Nancy Pelosi, the whole Hillary campaign, Mitt Romney, and Obama's second term into one person; of course his first concern is for tourism numbers. Please, stay home and stay safe; we've got to get this shit sorted.
Disneyland in shambles
I was there last year. It’s worse than ever. Expensive as fuck and designed to wear you down and open your wallets more. There was one really good ride and managed to see that. Had to pay extra on top of admission to ride it though. Per person.
The other big ticket item crapped out halfway through and the group of us in there ended up getting things to come back and try again later (after waiting in line for 30 mins) since it broke.
Honestly, it’s not the same as when I was a kid. The magic is gone.
Do you mean to tell me that the compulsion to squeeze people for every dime they have has ruined Disney? Damn that's hard to believe
Which rides specifically?
Disney world will be worse.
SiL is going with her kids, I told her to wipe her phone, she didn't take it seriously, hopefully they don't get turned around after landing because she's the kind of person that will make a huge scene and get detained...
Imagine that. A reason to go to Disneyland Paris.
Wait. Tokyo Disneyland exists. Never mind.
The state government needs to start putting together a plan to protect us from abduction.
As California Gov. Gavin Newsom rolled out a lawsuit Wednesday challenging Trump’s sweeping tariffs, he had little to say about the Abrego Garcia case when asked about it.
“This is the distraction of the day. The art of distraction,” Newsom, a potential 2028 presidential contender, said of Trump invoking MS-13 to justify his actions. “And here, we zig and zag. This is the debate they want. This is their 80-20 issue, as they’ve described it.”
While noting that the government needs to abide by court orders and the rule of law, Newsom added, “It’s exactly the debate they want, because they don’t want this debate on the tariffs; they don’t want to be accountable to markets today.”

Jesus Christ, Newsom, they put people in jail indefinitely with 0 due process, they aren't even charged with a crime! That's a little more urgent than the fucking tariffs!
That dude is completely focused on attacking the "real" threats: trans and unhoused people.
Pfft, he's just some guy distracting people from what's important: rich people are making slightly less money! Sound the alarm!
Not for the billionaire class, and they own the politicians.
Remember: he does not fight the tariffs to save ordinary peoples jobs or lower prices on supermarket shelves. He does this to protect the profits of the rich.
Ah, yes. Nazis opening up concentration/death camps in a foreign country and illegally shipping people off there without any semblence of due process (not that it would be legal even with due process, as death camps are illegal under the 8th amendment, not that this government cares)? Clearly that's just meant as a distraction from what the Nazis really want to do, which are tarrifs.
If he gets the nomination in 2028 then we're beyond royally fucked.
I could not think of a suitable Gavin line, unfortunately.
newsom is already democrats' preordained 2028 nominee.
he was until he hosted right wingers on a podcast.
He is BECAUSE he hosted right wingers on his podcast.
