California Gov. Gavin Newsom doesn’t like it when you trash his state. The blue bastion has become one of the states whose residents are most likely to flee due to the state's burdensome taxes and hyper-regulatory nature. Comedian Bill Maher remarked about the red tape on his show, mentioning the painfully slow process it took to get a permit to build his solar shed, which looked no bigger than an ordinary Porta Potty. Newsom either doesn’t know this or doesn’t care because he embarrassed himself at the California Democratic Party’s Re-Organizing State Convention, where he was joined by Nancy Pelosi, Ted Lieu, and other communists.
Newsom had the stones to say, “This is the free state of California!…Eat your heart out Florida and Texas!”
He was promptly roasted for this patently false remark. Also, has he forgotten that his state banned books?

Governor Gavin Newsom has a lot to say about Florida and Target. But his state is flailing. Why not focus there?

I grew up in California. My Dad was raised in San Francisco, my Mom in Richmond, CA. We were proud Californians. Now, it’s just sad. Taxes are being misspent, and @GavinNewsom is a joke. https://t.co/OQJ59iUHdY

Again, Gavin Newsom signed legislation redirecting the ability of doctors to speak freely with patients, he closed schools for longer than virtually any other governor, and repeatedly imposed mask and vaccine mandates

This is just completely delusional, anti-reality messaging https://t.co/iG51MQTj9T
What are so many Californians fleeing the “free state of California” for Florida and Texas?

Under @GavinNewsom, California lost population for the first time in the state’s history. Meanwhile, Florida is the fastest growing state in the nation.

People don’t flee freedom. They run towards it. https://t.co/chDebaegwb
California, where we have the freedom to have empty schools, abandoned cities, no homeowner's insurance, and elderly-abusing Senate staff

Yeah, that blue bubble is dense, and the longer you live underneath it, the more disabled you become.
