The Gavin Newsom Backlash is Still Building Steam

Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought, 3/15/2025 12:04:17 AM

The only reason that everyone isn't talking about what a terrible week Gavin Newsom is having is that people are too busy talking about what a terrible week Chuck Schumer is having. Still, almost as many Democrats seem irritated and fed up with Newsom as with Schumer. The source of that irritation is Newsom's new podcast where he has so far invited as guests: Charlie Kirk, Michael Savage and Steve Bannon. Michelle Goldberg has an opinion piece about this today. I was open to the idea behind Gavin Newsom’s new podcast, in which the California governor has been breaking out of his political bubble to talk at length with right-wing media stars

Big hairy deal! Any time a Democrat stubs his toe, the groups bestowing peace prizes, etc., put that name at the top of the list. All one has to do is to be listed on a recent book title. Woe is us and our pseudo intellectualism.

Newsom’s biggest problem is that his State is a hot mess. Mismanaged resources, high taxes, huge homeless problem and far left governance that has people fleeing the State. So he said letting men play women’s sports is ‘unfair’. So what? Has he made any moves to change that? No, and he won’t. He has ‘slick, lying politician’ written all over him.

One should never underestimate the level of effort that must be employed to keep Newsom out of Washington DC. Newsom is a fakey-snakey psychopath.

In the aftermath of what some in his party have called his "betrayal" on the CR, Sen. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has been on an image rehabilitation tour of sorts, sitting down with media friendlies in hopes of convincing angry Democrat voters (and colleagues) that he made the right decision. At the same time, he's also canceled book tour stops where he would potentially have to face hostile leftist protesters who have already made themselves fixtures at Schumer's New York home. "A spokesperson for Schumer’s book tour said that it would be rescheduled due to 'security concerns,'" The Hill noted Monday. On Tuesday, Schumer
Monster Bird Flu Update: Unprecedented
Mammal-to-Mammal Transmission Confirmed

We’ve been waiting for the other shoe to drop for a couple of years at this point since the bird flu narrative first ramped up post-COVID. Mammal-to-mammal gain-of-function — the newfound ability to transmit between mammals — has always seemed inevitable, given that the biomedical security state is literally funding gain-of-function research on viruses in clandestine labs all over the world, fully immune from oversight. It was nearly a year ago that former CDC Director Robert Redfield predicted bioengineered bird flu that infects and transmits among humans could drop “in months.” Highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza viruses (HPAIV) belonging to lineage 2.3.4.4b emerged in Chile in December 2022, leading to mass

WASHINGTON - The administration of President Donald Trump was consulted on Monday by Israel on its deadly strikes in Gaza, a White House spokesperson told Fox News' "Hannity" show. "The Trump administration and the White House were consulted by the Israelis on their attacks in Gaza tonight," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a Fox News interview. Palestinian medics in Gaza reported dozens of people were killed in the aftermath of a series of the most violent air attacks by Israel on the Palestinian enclave since a ceasefire was reached on January 19 between Israel and Hamas militants. A senior Hamas official said Israel had unilaterally overturned the ceasefire agreement.

The ceasefire between Israel and Hamas is over as Israeli fighter jets began striking the Gaza Strip after Hamas refused repeated hostage deal offers, officials said. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) began striking Hamas terrorist targets across Gaza "in order to achieve the war objectives set by the political leadership, including the release of all our hostages—both the living and the fallen," the office of Defense Minister Israel Katz said in a letter. "This decision comes after Hamas repeatedly refused to release our hostages and rejected all proposals presented by U.S. President’s envoy, Steve Witkoff, as well as the mediators," the letter states.

US President Donald Trump has warned Iran that it will face "dire" consequences if Yemen's Houthis continue to attack international shipping lanes. He said the Iranian leadership would be held responsible for "every shot fired by the Houthis", which have long been backed by Tehran. The group later said it had targeted a US aircraft carrier three times in the past two days. The Houthis first tried to attack the USS Harry S Truman in the Red Sea on Sunday following deadly US strikes on Yemen. The Pentagon said it had struck 30 targets in Yemen since Saturday

WASHINGTON - U.S. President Donald Trump, who has ordered the release of classified documents related to the 1963 assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy, said on Monday that his administration will make public around 80,000 pages of files related to the former president on Tuesday. "People have been waiting for decades for this," Trump told reporters during a visit to The Kennedy Center in Washington. "It's going to be very interesting." Earlier this year, Trump signed an executive order directing the federal government to present a plan to release records related to the assassinations of Kennedy, his brother Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr.

As the COVID coverup unravels--at least for normies, it is unraveling, I and many others have been censored since 2020 for stating the obvious--the Pravda Media is looking to cover their behinds by claiming to have been "misled."

Now that the cat has come out of the bag, suddenly the New York Times feels the need to get out in front of the backlash. For years, the NYT ran story after story, scathing column after column, about anyone who dared to challenge The Science®.

As we’ve been reporting, President Trump invoked the 1798 Alien Enemies Act against members of the violent Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang and promptly put over 200 of them on a plane to be taken to El Salvador. While the flight was still in the air, Chief U.S. District Judge James Boasberg ordered a temporary restraining order preventing the deportation of any Venezuelans—and he also demanded that the plane turn around and return the gangsters to the U.S. (Attorney General Pam Bondi has already appealed the ruling.) The Trump administration ignored the order, however, and the gangbangers were unloaded Sunday

Sacré bleu! Talk about a Napoleon complex. Some stories don’t require a lengthy set-up. They speak for themselves (and today, they’re parlez-vous-ing exclusively in French): France should take back the Statue of Liberty because the US no longer represents the values that led France to offer the statue, a French Euro-deputy said Sunday. "Give us back the Statue of Liberty", centre-left politician Raphael Glucksmann said at a convention of his Place Publique centre-left movement. "We're going to say to the Americans who have chosen to side with the tyrants, to the Americans who fired researchers for demanding scientific freedom: 'Give us back the Statue of Liberty,'" he told cheering supporters.

The Autopen is a fascinating device. Developed to allow celebrities to mass-produce autographs for hordes of swooning fans, it was never intended to enable a Muppet to serve as president of the United States. But that seems to be exactly what happened. Evidence has been emerging for a week that nearly every document Joe Biden allegedly signed after his first few days in office — every executive order, every pardon, every Congressional bill signed into law, every international treaty, every lifetime judicial nomination (including the nomination of Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson) — was signed with not one, but two Autopens.

A legal firm with deep ties to George and Alexander Soros’s network of left-wing nonprofits and non-governmental organizations (NGOs), is partially behind a lawsuit attempting to block President Donald Trump from deporting illegal alien gang members from the United States under the Alien Enemies Act, Breitbart News has learned. Over the weekend, the Trump administration invoked the Alien Enemies Act to begin deporting illegal alien gang members to El Salvador under a deal with President Nayib Bukele. The agreement allows for the United States to fly foreign gang members to the country to be held in a mega-prison for an annual fee. Soon after Trump invoked the Alien Enemies Act
