California Gov. Gavin Newsom will travel to Glasgow, Scotland, next month for the United Nations climate conference, his first major conference abroad since becoming governor in 2019.

Newsom will attend the conference alongside his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, and several members of his administration, including Environmental Protection Secretary Jared Blumenfeld and Natural Resources Secretary Wade Crowfoot. More than a dozen Democrats in the Legislature also plan to attend, according to Newsom’s office.

Newsom’s announcement that he will attend the conference comes on the heels of his administration releasing a draft rule that would ban new oil drilling within 3,200 feet – more than half a mile – of schools, homes and other sensitive buildings like hospitals. Newsom has also previously set ambitious targets for California to combat climate change, including signing an executive order to phase out sales of new gas-powered cards by 2035 and directing his state agencies to plan to phase out oil extraction in California by 2045.

The climate efforts that are shutting down the supply chain? You mean those climate efforts?

Oh, Let’s Go Gavin thinks he’s a lock for the Democrat/Marxist Party nomination in 2024. He really thinks that. He wants desperately to do to America — especially, but not limited to, the red states — what he’s done to California.

[Tell It Right]

I bet he doesn’t bring up the power blackouts done from green policies to inhibit forest management. Nor will he bring up how his truck pollution policies have had many cargo ships waiting in a backlog.

It’s the start of his Presidental campaign. Ugh…..these people will be the end of us.

Glasgow is kinda icky really. Gray and dreary.

LOL. The last time I was in Glasgow was in late 1980. That was my impression too. Most (almost the only) ugly place in Scotland.

They already the end of us. The fools and idiots are now in control and will, in all probability, remain in control for sometime. Once their poison has ran its course, the only thing thing that will remain recognizable as to what can be recognizable as to what once comprised the United States of America will be the geographical area it occupies.

because Scotland is so like California
