#1 I request that the mods either clearly identify links to the Daily Mail (DM) be identified up front, or not allow such links.

#2 In the end, California’s level of socialism is not fiscally sustainable. It never has been.

#4 Oh, there were results. Newsom's developer buddies and other folks in the up and coming homeless industry got rich. Then they made generous contributions to Democrat politicians across the state.

What? You think the money just evaporated? Don't be silly.

#5 Whiskey Mike, I used to have issues with the Daily Mail too. Ads that would pop up and blink were so intrusive that the articles were illegible. But then I started using the Brave web browser and now it's a lot better.

#6 I mostly read Daily Mail articles in Reader mode (in Safari is’s a drop down menu option in the menu bar), which does not recognize videos and pop-up adds.

#7 I find the Daily Mail to be a valuable news source. Not for whatever sprinkling of facts a story might contain, but more from a traffic analysis point of view - why are they talking about this particular thing right now? What kind of message is being sent?

In this case, despite his nice hair, the progressive governor of the progressive state of California, is being dinged for being an evasive weasel when asked about the very real problems of the state budget and the growing population of feral homeless people. A sad way to treat one of the anointed! Perhaps there someone waiting in the wings to take Gavin's place?

I did like the part about a budget shortfall so large it prompted Newsom to propose painful spending cuts impacting immigrants, kindergarteners and low-income parents seeking child care. Oh, the humanity!

#8 Newsom is in the Pelosi/Getty/ Rich Fucks patronage. Entirely without natural charm, brylcreem presentation and corrupt
