Slimy Gavin Newscum reneges on promise not to raise taxes to cover his state’s multi-billion dollar deficit
American Thinker ^ | 05/20/2024 | Olivia Murray

The ease and “fortuitousness” by which birth names evolve into perfectly descriptive and denigrative monikers seems like a God-has-a-sense-of-humor moment—a slimy-looking man that screams “greasy salesman” just happens to have a last name that can easily accommodate the word “scum” into it? Providence, no?

And, there are few things slimier and scummier than taking an oath of office to represent the people, making promises to act in their best interest, and then reneging on them—but that’s just who Gavin Newscum is.

From Susannah Luthi report at The Washington Free Beacon:

Earlier this month, the governor repeatedly pledged he would not raise taxes to solve the budget crisis—which comes just two years after he boasted a nearly $100 billion surplus—telling reporters that ‘the answer is no,’ should Democratic lawmakers bring him tax hike proposals, and that ‘there’s only so many times I can say no to the tax question.’

‘I don’t see there’s real evidence and need right now to increase general taxes … in this state and put more burden on working folks and our competitive posture’ he told one reporter who asked him if tax hikes were an ‘absolute nonstarter’ for him.

Yet, as Luthi also reports, “buried” in Newscum’s new budget proposal are $18 billion in “temporary tax hikes” for the California businesses still hanging on—over the past few years, a significant portion of the state’s businesses were forced into insolvency by government “pandemic” mandates, taxes, and crime, while many others fled the state altogether—but by “temporary” we know that actually means... permanent. From Luthi:

Newsom unveiled his budget proposal on May 10, and the tax policy details the following week.

“No really guys, the California citizens honestly voted for these leftist politicians, the democrats could not possibly have cheated, democrats would never cheat at elections!”

MEANWHILE IN THE REAL WORLD:

I received about 20 emails last night from people telling me that they went to vote for @larryelder, only to learn that they had already voted. This needs to be investigated. It seems like the fix is in.

On July 3, 2020 the percentage of registered voters was Dem 46.3%, Rep 24.0%, No Party Preference 24.0%, Other 5.7%.

The Republicans made up less than 25% of the registered voters in California.

Republicans made up the majority of registered voters in only two counties.

In 2022, all state-wide elections in California resulted in double-digit victories for the Democrat candidate. Almost all were near or greater than 20% victories.

Well thank goodness the 2020 election showed us that you cannot possibly have fake/dead/illegal/duplicate registered names on voter databases.......
