Newsom's ties to CCP under Microscope in New Book Exposing Alleged Corruption: 'Fleeced American Citizens'
Fox News ^ | March 10, 2025 | Andrew Mark Miller

Posted on 03/10/2025 2:49:25 PM PDT by nickcarraway

'Fool's Gold: The Radicals, Con Artists, and Traitors Who Killed the California Dream and Now Threaten Us All' will be released on Tuesday

A new book sounding the alarm about corruption in California spends a chapter focusing on Gov. Gavin Newsom’s history with a nonprofit organization that the authors say served as a major "gateway" for corrupt CCP-aligned corporations to flood into the state. In their book, "Fool's Gold: The Radicals, Con Artists, and Traitors Who Killed the California Dream and Now Threaten Us All," authors Jedd McFatter and Susan Crabtree write extensively about Newsom’s relationship with the Chinese community in the Bay Area and his ties to CCP businesses.

The book explains that Newsom came into office as San Francisco’s mayor in 2004 after receiving strong support from Chinese voters, enough so that he celebrated his victory in Chinatown and the authors write that from an early point in his tenure he was ready to "go full steam ahead with Chinatown’s interests."

One of those interests, according to Chapter 3 of the book, was a nonprofit organization initiative started by Newsom called ChinaSF that the book argues served as a gateway for CCP officials and Chinese criminals to exploit California.

He doesn’t even try to hide it.

Probably tries to hide the extent of it.

Newsom went into a church
He passed along the way
Well he got down on his knees
And he pretended to pray....

Stop repeating that stupid myth. A relative of Newsom and a relative of Pelosi were briefly married in the 1970s, and they divorced when he was about nine. There is no actual meaningful relationship.

I never did find out what was the outcome of, back in 2020, Newsome ordering some N95 masks from some random CHINESE SOURCE IN A BILLION DOLLAR CONTRACT. That whole thing seemed kind of GRIFTER LIKE to me.

Was that ever investigated or looked into?

Although I have little doubt the book’s thesis is representative, I noted a distinct lack of corrupt activities by name and dollar amount.

Google: gavin newsom ordered masks from a bus company
https://tinyurl.com/52n9sy5x

Many links about him stealing the money. BYD is the communist company. They own many politicians. Wherever there is a electric bus contract then BYD is involved and the buses do not work.

This is the same guy who says he does not know what happened to $24 billion to solve the homeless crisis.

One article:
Gov. Gavin Newsom’s $1.4 Billion deal for masks with BYD
https://californiaglobe.com/fl/exclusive-gov-newsoms-byd-mask-deal-profitable-for-insider-dealmakers/

BYD’s contract with the Newsom administration was kept hidden from state legislators and the media since the deal was struck in April, on the heels of the even stranger mask deal with Blue Flame Medical LLC – a company only recently formed by former political consultants seeking to capitalize on the coronavirus pandemic.

In March, California wired $456.9 million to Blue Flame Medical LLC for millions of masks. But once it was revealed that the state of California wired the nearly $500 million dollars for masks to a company that had been in business for three days, the state demanded its money back.

-snip- (sound familiar like stacy abrams NGO?)
“BYD also has no history of making personal protective equipment, and yet days after the FDA approval, it secured a $1 billion deal to supply masks to California.”
