Public Servant Gavin Newsom’s rise in California politics and acquired power since the 1990s has been through the knavery of family and influential friends.

If you ever doubted that politics is made up of the elite class who see themselves as the ruling class, doubt no more: Governor Gavin Newsom and the “First Partner” (his wife) just purchased a $9.1 million home in Marin County.

The “mansion” is 5,600 square feet, with Newsoms paying 7 percent above the asking price.

In California we live under a feudal system. There are princes, dukes and lords. Then there are the serfs. Time for the serfs to revolt

In California, everything is easy for far-left, liberal greaseballs.

Graft is an ugly word. Maybe Aunt Pelosi bought it for him?

He didn’t, it was given to him by the LLC that was created 2 days before the LLC bought it.

He's not a 25 year old kid out of high school...There are other ways to make money.

For example, you can marry into the Heinz family.

It confuses me that the public, and the media just accept this kind of thing.

If the public accepted it, then Deep State wouldn’t have to steal elections, would it...

“through the knavery of family and influential friends.”

Knavery, I love it. The article is very interesting.

Radical leftists are rewarded royally for moving this country toward the left during their term of office. Bam has 4 mansions. You need a lot more than a president’s salary or pension and book sales.

I will be watching to see if biden suddenly becomes the owner of a luxury mansion.

I thought his family had money. Maybe he got it from a trust.

He ran a very successful and lucrative business for many years. I’d say it’s modest by Political Standards.

Pure, in your face corruption. Hopefully this will prevent him from ever becoming President. Also doubt he or his family will find true happiness or contentment in this huge monstrosity.
