Newsom: But but but... the high-speed rail is a national emergency! Sandy Ocasio-Cortez said so on the green new deal!

Good. I’ll take a guess that Newsom was going to give that taxpayer money to his union buddies or pay for programs for “immigrant” workers in the state.

It’s through the back door, but I hope part of this action was because of CA’s sanctuary cities.

POTUS likes to read the fine print of any contract. The state of California didn’t follow the terms of the grant money so POTUS is calling him out on it. That’s what you get when you have a savvy businessman in the Oval Office, rather than an empty suit puppet doing what he’s told - cough, cough, Obama.
