The CA Governor is Ready to Rumble!

A couple of days ago, CA Governor Gavin Newsom took it to Human Trafficker Gov. Ron De Santis, as chronicled by Rule of Claw: California Governor Gavin Newsom Hints Kidnapping Charges Might Be Coming for DeSantis:

Today, the CA Governor proposed a “28th Amendment:” on gun violence. The video attached to the tweet calls out Abbott, DeSantis, Issa, and Jordan, but not (that I could see) Gov. Tate Reeves of MS:

x NEW: I’m proposing the 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution to help end our nation’s gun violence crisis.



The American people are sick of Congress’ inaction.



The 28th will enshrine 4 widely supported gun safety freedoms -- while leaving the 2nd Amendment intact:

Nonetheless, the Governor of the State ranking 48-50 in most categories, decided to challenge Newsom. It did not go well for ol’ Tate, Bless his heart:

x Can’t wait for you to defend the fact that Mississippi has the highest gun violence death rate in the nation….



(377% higher than California’s, by the way)



You can’t be serious. https://t.co/lWcy9rqxV6 — Gavin Newsom (@GavinNewsom) June 8, 2023

Newsom’s tweet has hit a nerve — it’s been banned by Tik-Tok and provoked a hysterical response from the NRA.

In his most recent tweets, Newsom urges us to make sure it goes viral on Twitter and elsewhere.

So I’m doing it in this diary!
