Gov. Newsom heads to Mexico for Thanksgiving trip with family

Lt. Gov. Eleni Kounalakis will act as governor while Newsom is out of the state, as required by the state constitution. This is why the Governor’s Office usually announces anytime Newsom leaves the state, even if just for a few hours.

That’s one reason why Newsom was widely criticized earlier this month for not disclosing his whereabouts for more than a week. Newsom had been scheduled to attend an international climate conference in Scotland. But he withdrew at the last minute, citing “family obligations.”

That marked a 12-day stretch where Newsom held no public events. His office would not say where he was or what he was doing for most of that time.

Maybe he’s going to Mexico to get rid of those Mexican Jumping Beans that were injected into him when he got the booster shot.

Yup, Mexico is likely cleaner than The Sheets of San Francisco where he was once Mayor.

It would be funny if Gov. Gavin forgot some of his important paperwork and Border Guards would not let him reenter the USA right away. “Yeah, Dude, you’re the Governor, right?
and I’m AMLO, Presidente of Mexico. This passport is way out of date! You got a problem.”

going down to pay homage to the cartels is he? Thanksgiving isn’t a Mexican holiday.
