Gov. Gavin Newsom today called newly elected state lawmakers to work as soon as they’re sworn in on Dec. 2 for a special session to “safeguard California values” as the state prepares — again — to be a liberal antagonist to the upcoming Trump administration.
In other words: Gear up for lawsuits.
In a proclamation declaring the special session, Newsom said he wants the Legislature to approve funding for the Department of Justice and other state agencies to “immediately file affirmative litigation.”
Legislative sources said the special session is intended to be narrowly focused on providing legal resources to the attorney general’s office — perhaps as much as $100 million — to fight the Trump administration. The goal is to appropriate the money before Trump is sworn in on Jan. 20, though given how many new members are joining the Legislature, they may not be ready to act until early January.

[Newsom calls special session to ‘Trump-proof’ California]
Blow the bridges, crater the runways.
They like their way, they can live it.
Or maybe threaten to start moving some military bases from Cali to, say, Nevada or Arizona.
California is the cereal state. Fruits, nuts and flakes.
