    In the interest of clarity, I don’t think that Johnson quite qualifies as a hypocrite, since a hypocrite has to have something at least resembling principles, and Johnson appears to have nothing of the sort.

    He appears to be an essentially complete, full-time toady, ready and willing and even eager to mouth whatever he thinks will please whoever he’s desperate to please at the moment. I don’t think he’s ever had a thought or opinion of his own in his entire life.

    Not that that’s any better or anything - just an observation.

    I like that the Governor of the 4th largest economy in the world is consistently telling frumpy and his merry band of idiots where to go. When Cali starts secession inquiries, frumpy’s head’s gonna explode.

      From an international perspective it’s hard to really understand what the rest of the US is even for, when California seems to do all the things. It’s not as if people visit the US to visit the plains of Wyoming

          Well, there are flatlands in WY and they are boring AF. The only excitement is from all the white supremacists and Nazis who live there.

        New York and Florida both have more international tourism. California is third followed by Nevada and Texas.

          I guess in the divorce we’ll get Cali, NY, Nevada, Illinois, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire, Washington (State), Oregon, Minnesota, Wisconsin and maybe Georgia (probably not, though). They get the Bible belt, the lower East Coast, Delaware and Texas.

    Say what you will about Newsom, he’s a Democrat striking back by talking plainly. Maybe some Democrats will find their fucking unused spines can be used to stand up.

    LOL, nah. Anyone of liberal bent is determined to strike the governor down for his sins. “Not good enough!”, they scream as they’re hauled off to the trains, unarmed, as they wished to be. Good luck you fucking pansies! (Is “pansy” still politically correct? Or did I offend .0235% of the population?)

      First paragraph was good. Could have done without the straw man and annoying verbiage of the second.

        Yeah, attacking antifascists isn’t what liberals do, it’s what us socialists do. Anarkiddies will never understand that purity testing antifascists is a legitimate leftist position.

    Religion is the greatest grift on society ever made. To believe it actually gives you morals and ethics has continually been disproven.
