Gov. Gavin Newsom, right, and state Atty. Gen. Rob Bonta speak at a news conference in Ceres, Calif., announcing their lawsuit challenging the Trump administration’s use of emergency powers to enact sweeping tariffs that hurt states, consumers and businesses. Give Gov. Gavin Newsom credit. You can call it grandstanding and opportunistic, but suing President Trump over tariffs was smart, bold and much needed. Sure, it was political.

SACRAMENTO — Gov. Gavin Newsom says he is inviting prominent followers of President Trump onto his podcasts to learn why Democrats “are getting our ass kicked.” He should look in the mirror. Newsom epitomizes much of what he thinks is wrong with the Democratic Party. Moreover, Democrats really haven’t been getting their asses kicked. Most of the contests the party is having a nervous breakdown over — especially last year’s presidential election — were fairly close.

Thank you, Sen. Feinstein, for deciding to serve out your term rather than resign. Now millions of Ca voters can choose your replacement, rather than just one governor.
Allan Zaremberg was by far the most important, most influential business representative in Ca's capital for decades. And he may have been the most liked because he was gracious, wise and bipartisan in problem solving. An old school great guy.
Recall Xln Sept 14? Too bad not July 14. Sooner we get this waste of time and tax money behind us, the better. Especially for the Ca GOP.
