California’s governor, once praised, faces backlash over pandemic response(Wow! From across the pond)

He was hailed as a national hero in the early months of the pandemic, but Newsom’s job rating has plunged in recent weeks

Criticism has come from all sides. Legislators have been divided over his decision to lift regional stay-at-home orders a week after the state surpassed 3m coronavirus cases. Health workers have been dismayed that some of his recent health directives have diverged from established and emerging scientific research. He has bickered with teachers unions and parents over when and how to reopen the state’s public schools. Activists say he is failing Latino and Black residents, Californians with disabilities and essential workers who are dying at disproportionate rates. And jobless Californians, struggling to access unemployment benefits, have cursed the administration’s bureaucratic inertia.

“But as the pandemic has progressed, people have higher expectations,” Chin-Hong said – they expect leaders to explain the reasoning behind public health decisions.

Newsom failed to do that two weeks ago, when he suddenly announced that he would be lifting the state’s most restrictive stay-at-home orders, Chin-Hong said. Even state legislators said they were taken off guard.

“If you think state legislators were blindsided by, and confused about the shifting and confusing public health directives, you’d be correct,” said assemblymember Laura Friedman after Newsom’s announcement. “If you think we have been quiet about it in Sacramento, you’d be wrong.”

Who Is Gavin Newsom?

Gavin is the latest prop of elite families who are running the State of California and Democrat Party.
Think I saw somewhere that his family and the Pelosis are somehow tied in.

Almost like a mob thing.

Gavin has ties to the Brown, Pelosi and Getty families that dates back at least three generations. The media tries to paint Gavin as coming from humble beginnings, but that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Gavin is a fourth-generation San Franciscan, and comes from a politically well-connected family. In fact, much of the wealth, power, and connections have been kept closely knit between one another. It is rare that power has left this circle of friends/family.

In fact, California has been ruled by these people for generations, and their influence has only been growing.
