VDH: Gavin Newsom Abandons Californians for 2028 White House Delusions

California Gov. Gavin Newsom seems to be more interested in podcasting, siding with protesters, and pointing fingers at the Trump administration than actually fixing the problems in his state.

Newsom’s record long record of failure is evident in the was California is spiraling out of control: a crumbling infrastructure, surging poverty, and broken immigration enforcement.

Victor Davis Hanson has a message for Gavin Newsom on why his priorities are not only out of touch—but dangerous—on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

“He’s now inserted himself into the ICE deportations crisis in California and siding with the protesters that are trying to obstruct ICE. And he has a very incoherent position. … I guess the supposition is that Gavin thought it was quite moral for 12 million people to break the law, but it’s quite amoral for somebody to try to rectify the situation and enforce the law.

“ You look at a state that is in complete free fall, it is a catastrophe, and rather than addressing transportation, energy, poverty, housing, gasoline, what are you doing? You’re campaigning for president. And you’re in Twitter wars with the president of the United States. And you’re defending the catastrophic governance in Los Angeles. And you’re trying to impede the enforcement of a law that if it was enforced, you would be the biggest beneficiary.”
