To Compensate of its Iran fiasco--effectively shutting down the Strait of Hormu--- Trump 2.0 has proceeded to inflict environmental harm on California Trump 2.0 has ordered---invoking emergency powers under the Defense Production Act---the restart of a Santa Barbara oil pipeline shut since the 2015 Refugio spill, California officials say the move defies court orders and state oversight. Gov. Gavin Newsom said the state will sue. FWIW, so far under Trump 2.0, Gov Newsom is batting 100% in court.

Gavin Newsom wins Trump’s insults — and his attention Trump has begun to define Gavin Newsom — signaling that the California governor has moved into a small circle of Democrats he and his allies view as a serious threat. In recent days, Trump has been road-testing attacks on Newsom’s dyslexia — which the governor recently wrote about in his new book — trying to portray Newsom as “a low IQ person” and “dumb.” Newsom responded by highlighting the verbal error and issuing public statements online. But the ramped-up attacks on Newsom and his dyslexia are a new, more personal line of attack. Even Trump’s allies say it shows that the president considers Newsom, who many Democrats and Republicans view as a front-runner for the 2028 Democratic nomination, as a problem. Susan Del Percio, a longtime Republican consultant who does not support the president, said Newsom “has clearly gotten under Donald Trump’s skin and this is all Donald Trump has to reply with.” Del Percio called Trump’s comments “weak” and predicted it could cause a problem for Republicans. “People are going to ask, ‘Do you agree with the president?” Del Percio said. “Once again, Donald Trump is showing he does not care about anybody but himself and has no problem leaving Republicans to clean up his mess.”
Because he understands what Trump is doing and is capable of going toe to toe with him in a pissing contest. Most politicians don't want to go off the script, they do not want to talk trash - but Newsom is clever enough and arrogant enough to turn Trump red.
I was about to post this and you already had it lmao - what is up with democrats and "learing" centers - is this the next big thing?

When have I ever defended Trump? I've asked you multiple times to show me an an example and you've failed to do so. You're so off target. You defend garbage like Newscum. Day in and day out. Nothing on the Rockets, Stros or Texans. Strictly California politics Newscum is garbage just like In @Out. Cali bias is stupid and the smart people are leaving
Countering Trump isn't difficult. He's a narcissistic clown. Newscum is too. Not a good situation. I will vote for anyone against Newscum and I know a lot of people who feel the same way
this project is going along just fine. The construction is entering its final phases to open by end of 2026.
