Newsom pledged on Saturday to empower private citizens to enforce a ban on the manufacture and sale of assault weapons in the state

•He cited he would use the same authority claimed by conservative lawmakers in Texas to outlaw most abortions once a heartbeat is detected

•'If states can now shield their laws from review by the federal courts... then California will use that authority to protect people's lives, where Texas used it to put women in harm's way,' Newsom said

•Texas Republicans passed a banning abortions around six weeks into pregnancy

•Law allows private citizens to enforce the ban by suing abortion clinics and anyone who 'aids and abets' with the procedure

•The 6-3 conservative majority Supreme Court upheld this law in a Friday ruling

TBH, what most Californians are taking with them when they go is the desire to be left the fk alone.

The minority are busybodies who’ve shat in the nest here, and they’re gonna shit in any nest they go to; get on the PTA, School Board, City Council...

You wanna stop the madness, pass local legislation requiring that candidates for local offices have ten years of local residency.
