Gavin Newsom claimed in July that California simply has no peers, across the spectrum. The Globe reported on Newsom’s conceited email in which he listed the Orwellian “Ten Ways California Leads the Nation.”
California may be leading the nation – off the cliff into 3rd world status, we stated, especially as Newsom’s and Democrat’s policies have pushed out some of California’s greatest businesses.
Rep. Kevin Kiley noticed and said Thursday, “Perhaps he took inspiration from David Letterman because the list is, to put it mildly, laughable.” Kiley wrote:
One item is “belonging and unity.” Another, unbelievably, is high-speed rail (we’re investigating that disaster in the Transportation Committee). Conveniently, Newsom fails to mention an area where the Census Bureau just announced California actually leads the nation: poverty.
Kiley notes that Newsom didn’t mention homelessness, crime, taxes, gas prices, housing costs, illegal border crossings, and more:
“Today I gave a speech on the House Floor correcting these omissions: listing all the ways California truly ‘leads’ in Newsom/Kamala’s “model for the nation.”
