The government shutdown is reportedly on the verge of coming to an end, but California Governor Gavin Newsom isn’t happy with the terms, which he shared on X.
In a post that went up on Sunday, Newsom reacted to the government shutdown possibly coming to an end, writing: “Pathetic. This isn’t a deal. It’s a surrender. Don’t bend the knee!”
The post has received 423K views, 13K likes, 2.2K re-shares, and 519 comments.
At first glance, the government shutdown coming to an end would seem like a good thing, but according to Newson, Democrats should hold out.
And based on the comments section, it seems like the majority of X users support him on this view, that this would be seen as the democrats giving up.
One user wrote: “If Democrats cave, that'll be my last straw. As God is my witness, so help me, if Dems cave in on this I will switch from Democrat to Independent. I've ******* had enough.”

Het Gavin go Duck yourself.
Who cares what he says? He is an oily
used car salesman in a governor’s chair.
This guy is one sick creep.
Let’s give Leader Thune credit. McConell would have gave caved.
This is all you need to know about what just happened.

Pathetic shutdown.
If Gavin hates it, it must be gooooood.
Now, start arresting people for treason, sedition, insurrection, whatever you want to call it for trying to overthrow this government without voting. DO IT NOW!!!!
Absolutely pathetic. I cannot believe we caved to this wannabe dictator and his goons. Thanks to the Democrats who voted no. We’ll remember who bent the knee.— Harry Sisson (@harryjsisson) November 10, 2025
Lighten up, Scarlett O'Hara.
Time to re- litigate The Unafordable Care Act.
I would trust the sleaziest used car dealer long before Newscum.
lol
so pathetic, little Gavin trying to get votes for 2028
Kimberly Guilfoyle has remained oddly silent on her relationship with the slimiest politician ever.
I think when the time is right she will sink him. Maybe early October 2028.
