The only good thing about Gavin Newsom is to watch him get kicked in the ass.

"Guessing that money is long since spent....."

So? Withhold the next four billion CA would otherwise get, a billion for this and three billion for the money the Federal Government advanced them for the HS rail they're now not going to build.

Can’t that money be reassigned to the California portion of the wall? The dough won’t leave the state.

I’m sure there are some very powerful & dangerous people who were counting on Gavin to funnel that money to them.

Watch for a suicide by red scarf & doorknob.
