Unlike 47, VP, & Hegseth, Governor Newsom voiced concerns for public safety about the Marines shooting artillery over I-5. Fortunately, he had I-5 closed for public safety. The Marines/Dept. Of War did NOT request I-5 to be closed. One governs to protect the people. The other doesn’t give a shit.

There is a stink emanating from the House of Reps created by the refusal of Johnson to swear in Rep-Elect Adelita Grijalva. Very reminiscent of the stench that rose from the Senate in 2016 when McConnell refused to hold a hearing re Obama’s nominee for Supreme Court.Someone please file a law suit.
