Gavin Newsom finally admits closing beaches during COVID was “insane,” and Bill Maher says he should have figured that out WHEN IT MATTERED!

He adds Newsom's COVID rules were the exact OPPOSITE of what should have been done.

Closing beaches was just the start:

• Banned singing at church

• Banned indoor church services until the Supreme Court stepped in

• Shut down Bible studies in private homes until the Supreme Court blocked it

• Rammed through the country's first COVID vaccine mandates for kids

• Told diners to keep their masks on “in between bites”

• Signed a law letting the state punish doctors for COVID “misinformation”

• Dined at the French Laundry while telling Californians to stay home

• Sent his own kids back to in-person private school while public schools stayed closed

Gavin forced COVID hell on everyone, got “The Science” all wrong, and didn’t even follow his own rules…

“Insane” in hindsight doesn’t quite cover it.

“Figured out.” Yeah, sure. That’s why he was out cavorting with his friends during that time. He knew it all along.

If anyone wonders why Kamalatoe is polling so much higher than Newscum there it is.

He looks like a poor man’s Matthew McConaughey but he’s dumber than AOC.

Newsome is one of the worst governors ever, there isn’t an anti-gun bill he hasn’t signed into law yet.

They do it to show a message of control and the absurdity of the most breezy outdoor place of all makes the message more clear, power, complete control.

It was all about power over the sheeple.

“Video at link on X.”

What link? There’s no link in your post.

The thing is: we should hope that Harris or AOC is the Democrats candidate for 2028. Both of these make even women go “she is supposed to represent ME??”

BOTH are weaker candidates than Newsone.

Imagine if the Democrats had gone with Tulsi Gabbard as their candidate? The results would not have been quite so one sided.

Encourage the Democrats to shoot themselves in the foot.

But... more worrying now is the midterms

This is all true but the beaches was the most absurd part because there was zero evidence of transmission outdoors. Exactly zero.

The second worst was the child vaccine mandate as there were almost zero child fatalities.

There was never any science behind any of these “rules” as fauci admitted.

I am still waiting for accountability, not apologies.

I recall pictures of band students wearing masks with holes in them to allow for playing the instrument. I swear the promoters at all levels were fricking nut cases.

This alone should cause people to Reject Newsom for any elected office.

Gavin is pretty slow when it comes to decisions and ideas.
