Gavin Newsom

This is jaw dropping and people are finally starting to understand it.

That's why they're desperate to paint a different picture.

But again, they're lying.

blue or purple but the fact that donald trump and mega mike johnson are not providing relief to california because it's a blue state is so utterly despicable watch this you know i hope it gives some some closure as it relates to some of the anxiety that may have been felt how did this happen who's responsible um can this happen again what lessons we learned um so at least from that perspective a little bit of closure

That said, it's cold comfort for those who lost their homes and are coming through the recovery.

What I do say is that we need to really now, I think, call out why the President of the United States and Congress has refused to provide support to those that have been victimized by this arsonist and this devastation.

$39 billion for months and months and months.

And the President of the United States has said nothing

Speaker of the House said he's not interested in helping the American people that were devastating lives torn asunder here in Los Angeles.

I mean, where is the accountability in that respect?

Where's the spirit that defines the best of this country to be here for fellow Americans in the time of recovery?

Uncertainty.

It's been months, months, not a peep from the president of the United States, not a word from Speaker Johnson.

I was proud as a taxpayer, as an American, to have Speaker Johnson's back when his district and his state was devastated by floods.

I said the same thing to Greg Abbott as we sent him personnel and support because he needed it with the devastation of the flood.

And I'm proud that our tax dollars, disproportionately California's tax dollars, will be used to help support the recovery of

in Texas.

That's what makes America great, not a word from the Republican Party, not a word from Speaker Johnson, not a word from the President of the United States.

I applaud the work that initiated under the Biden administration in this investigation and the work that this administration did as it relates to finding this person and ultimately pushing these charges and making these charges.

But I find it shameful that they haven't done a damn thing
