https://www.redstate.com/jenvanlaar/2020/01/16/764041/CA Gig Bill Author Throws Temper Tantrum in Interview, Calls Those Affected LiarsCalifornia Asm. Lorena Gonzalez (D-San Diego) authored the terrible anti-liberty bill, AB5, that effectively outlaws any kind of independent contracting. Tens of thousands of Californians have either seen all of their income immediately dry up or severely decrease as companies instead opt to contract with people in the 49 states where it’s not such a risky proposition for them to do business.
As we covered previously, when confronted by Californians who have been severely harmed by her legislation, Gonzalez has displayed a condescending, communistic, “let them eat cake because it’s for the good of the collective†attitude. Though she’s been dragged on social media for nearly a month now, her “performance†during an interview on San Diego’s KUSI Friday night showed that she learned absolutely nothing from the experience.
...
Based on accounts of eyewitnesses in the station who were there with other interviewees that night, the atmosphere was extremely tense from the moment Gonzalez and her handlers entered the station. KUSI has been giving voice to a number of freelancers from various industries who have been harmed by AB5. Princess Lorena wasn’t too happy about that, resulting in a petulant outburst near the beginning of the 20-minute-long interview.
She started off by calling the interviewers liars after they introduced the story by saying they’d heard from thousands of people who had lost their “jobs†(contracts, really).
"I was wrong," is just not in Progs' vocabulary, seemingly.
