BREAKING: California Governor Gavin Newsom punches back hard after Donald Trump exploits the deadly Los Angeles wildfires to demand political concessions in return for federal relief funds.
Newsom is putting his money where his mouth is while Trump plays politics...
"Conditioning aid for American citizens is wrong," Newsom said bluntly through his press office before debunking Trump's claims—
"FACT: Under current CA law you must be a CA resident and US citizen (and attest to being one under penalty of perjury) AND provide a form of ID such as driver’s license or passport that has been approved by the Secretary of State in order to register to vote."
"FACT: 15 states do not generally require voter ID at polls, including Nevada and Pennsylvania (two states won by President Trump)."
"FACT: California pumps as much water now as it could under prior Trump-era policies."
Newsom's office was responding to the vile demands Donald Trump made earlier today day, during which the so-called president shamelessly politicized a natural disaster.
"I want to see two things in Los Angeles," Trump told reporters in North Carolina. "Voter ID, so that the people have a chance to vote, and I want to see the water be released and come down into Los Angeles and throughout the state."
"Those are the two things. After that, I will be the greatest president that California has ever seen,” he insisted.
Unfortunately for him, Governor Newsom is no pushover. Just yesterday he signed a $2.5 billion relief package that will be "made available immediately" for disaster recovery, debris removal, logistics work, traffic management, and more.
Trump plays politics. Newsom gets the job done.

BREAKING: New York’s Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul enrages MAGA by signing a law that will require fossil fuel companies to pay for climate damage repair.
And it gets even better…
The new state law requires the companies responsible for the bulk of emissions produced between 2000 and 2018 to pay out roughly $3 billion a year for the next 25 years.
State Senator Liz Krueger, a co-sponsor of historic bill, called it a “shot that will be heard ‘round the world.”
“Too often over the last decade, courts have dismissed lawsuits against the oil and gas industry by saying that the issue of climate culpability should be decided by legislatures,” she stated.
“Well, the Legislature of the State of New York — the 10th largest economy in the world — has accepted the invitation, and I hope we have made ourselves very clear: the planet’s largest climate polluters bear a unique responsibility for creating the climate crisis, and they must pay their fair share to help regular New Yorkers deal with the consequences,” she went on.
This makes New York the second state to pass a law like this behind Vermont. Due to New York’s massive economic, cultural, and political influence this will have far-reaching effects.
