Gavin Newsom has sought to transform California’s massive prison system into a Nordic-style rehabilitation program. Newsom has placed a moratorium on all executions, transferred condemned prisoners to facilities across the state, and dismantled San Quentin State Prison’s death row.
As part of this transformation, the Newsom administration approved a $189 million contract to provide new digital tablets — generic, flat-screen devices in a plastic shell — to every inmate in the state prison system, at “no cost” to offenders.
The administration heralded the effort to replace inmates’ old tablets — which were piloted in 2018 and given to nearly all prisoners by 2023 — as a step toward “digital equity” for “justice impacted” individuals. The prisoners could, in theory, use the devices to contact their families, consume “educational” content, and “learn new technology.”

Tbere probably won't be any fraud in this program either. Definitely no kiddie porn.
Check Noisome’s campaign contributions for the tablet manufacturer.
It is great parody because there is truth in it.
The left loves murderers more than it loves you and me.
That’s because leftism is a mental disorder.
Just sick.

What is sad to me is this kind of stuff will not be used as op research against him in a Democrat Primary for POTUS.
Again, Newscum does NOTHING for taxpaying citizens of California.
The ‘Rats needs to be “justice impacted” and in a big way.
Stupidity on parade.
Newscum doesn’t want to be out done by Mayor Bass wanting to offer free teeth to meth users at tax payer expense.
It’s always nice to see prisoners getting newer and better stuff than I have.

That is why you pay taxes.
You have your stuff because you are conservative/frugal.
So you have some $ left over. EEK EEK Send it in as TAX.
The Nordic style of prison system relies heavily on social shame in a homogenous culture.
For those who respect that, it can be a powerful behavior modifier. For those who do not, it is simply ridiculous.
,,, digital equity! Only a socialist running a living memorial to fiscal debt [CA.] would lock into that concept.
