While ‘Trump-Proofing’ CA, Gov. Gavin Newsom Asks Congress for $40 Billion in Fire Relief Funds

In what can only be described as arrogance and chutzpah, nearly two weeks after signing legislation to authorize $50 million to fund litigating the Trump administration over California’s un-American and unconstitutional leftist policies and laws, Governor Gavin Newsom sent a letter Friday to Congress asking for $40 billion in fire relief funds.

The two funding bills Gov. Newsom signed appropriated $50 million to “Trump Proof” California.

It would surprise no one if Congress and the Trump administration told Newsom to pound sand.

As the Globe reported February 7th:

California Governor Gavin Newsom signed legislation Friday authorizing a $50 million legal slush fund to “Trump-proof” the state against the President.

However, Gov. Newsom says the funding is not to be used for “immigration related legal services,” but the bill actually does as the Globe reported:

“SBX1-2 amends the Budget Act to add funding for Legal Services, including $25 million for legal assistance for Californians and immigrant communities.”
