Use power like the republicans do, when they go low, go even lower
watch elmo throw a massive hissy fit over this and “*communist california*”
:: gets popcorn ready ::
I am all for an internal economic war because the Red States are a federal tax dollar drain. Blue states should withhold federal taxes.
Oh you mean he isn’t afraid of making it “look partisan” like Garland, or “doing the right thing” like Biden or “reaching across the aisle” like Obama?
Good. Democrats need to get it through their head Republicans are in a cult who don’t care about honor, honesty or a better world. Stop giving those low life scumbags the benefit of the doubt.
If California were a country, it would be the 5th largest country in the world by GDP, which is close to 4 Trillion
California could give the federal govt hell if it wants and I suspect they will
Anyone else feel like Newsom is the ONLY Democrat that understands how to deal with modern Republican/Trumpicans? We’re going to need him on the national stage in 4 years.
Good! Elon can fuck off.
Now that’s an incentive to buy! Anything but Tesla
Plus Dickies announced move from TX (after 100 years or so) to CA. Fight back.
Love it. Good job Newsom, good on you for having some balls and actually using the power of your office.
Cue Felon contacting his lawyers:
Dems need to start being everything the right says we are. Fuck these dip shits. Put their ass in submission.
Being a petty asshole
Good. Let’s face it, it’s a civil war going on (not bloody if the left allows it or some bs like that). Excuse my ignorance but it seems to me that the blue states put more into the pot than the red states. Then the red states pull more from the pot than blue states and they get to dictate policy? How does that work??
Good.
Fuck the fucking fuckers.
Seems fair. DeSantis wants to go to war with Disney over being “woke”
He should offer rivian better loan than georgia and yank them tf away.
Fuck Elon, and fuck this corrupt incoming administration.
Co-President Leon not gonna like that….
Good! Tired of R’s being petty assholes and Dems just taking it and trying to be the bigger person while getting screwed.
Jon Stewart had a good take last week about this. Dems stick to the rulebook, Republicans make up their own rules and see how far they can push it. When they’re successful the Dems sit around and whine about how the Republicans aren’t following the rules and it’s illegal or immoral or whatever and at the end of the day it doesn’t fucking matter because the Republicans get what they want.
You think the Oklahoma school board putting bibles in public schools doesn’t know that’s a clear violation of the constitution? Of course they do, but theyre doing it anyway, knowing it’s illegal and the antithesis of ehat the US was founded on because they also know SCOTUS is corrupt and may let them have it…In which case they’ll come up with another illegal thing a few steps past that to test the fences once more.
When you’re the only one playing by the rules one has to question if the rules even matter. And if they don’t matter, now would be a good time for the Dems to grow some balls and do something to minimize or even side step the absolute disaster that’s about to hit the country. For the good of the nation, for the good of democracy you have to step up and protect it, even if half the voters are too stupid to understand what they just did, you have to protect even them from their own stupidity and that means breaking some eggs while you still have eggs to break.
“Fuck your feelings” should be the new Dem motto. If the country thinks a convicted felon/sex offender is fit for President, stop trying to walk on eggshells.
Yes! Bring it to those beotches!
Alright Gavin, I forgive u for your French Laundry incident
Finally a progressive not afraid to give matching energy.
New California Republic about to be a thing in my lifetime it seems.
Hey hackers, how do us common folk sabotage Teslas? With magnets or something?
Would be nice if California allowed a tax deduction for 529 contributions.
This country is turning very anti-education, would be a good incentive to do a tax break for education…
Well I guess things like this will check how much Republicans really believe in states’ rights.
Correct amount of petty
My understanding is that the CA program is for helping emerging tech and companies.
Because Tesla is established is why they would be omitted. So would Ford, gm, etc.
Good
The democratic governors are going to be our best weapon the next four years. They are angry and strong and on our side. Please, democratic governors, please have the strength to do what you need to do
Sometimes I’m not sure how I feel about Gavin Newsom and then he does shit like this and I’m like “I like this guy.”
Newsom for prez 2028.
Idc that he’s a “coastal elitist.”
Haha
🔥
Go Gavin.
Newsom 2028
Ultimately Elon / Tesla is going to sue, and they likely win on some technicality that the exclusion was bias/politically motivated. Strawman argument I know. We’ve seen this before
They should add a $7,500 surcharge to every Tesla built outside of California.
I like this idea. But, how do you exclude Tesla without it raising questions of legality if they meet the criteria?
Let’s go rivian!!
I mean, if it’s a rebate for CA based ev companies that’s pretty fair.
Go way deeper gavin.
Tesla traffis for California buyers.
Extra DMV fees for Tesla’s new and used.
Full ban on cyber trucks. Period.
Not a Newsom fan but fuck he’d seriously gain a few points in my book if he did this.
Would love to see MA do something similar. I would like to buy a new car in the next 4 years, ideally hybrid plugin – tariffs are making that seem impossible, tax credits would soften the blow.
