The unbearable hypocrisy of the Democrats
By Rajan Laad
Hypocrisy is intrinsic in contemporary politics; there is usually a wide chasm between the utterances and actions of politicians.
Citizens no longer expect the elimination of these dual standards. At best, they hope their elected representatives are at least true believers and practitioners of the policies they advocate and the laws they pass.
We recently had a few instances of blatant hypocrisy.
Exhibit one is California Governor Gavin Newsom.
Last week, the California Governor’s office released a statement that the governor was away from the office to spend time with his family. There was neither mention of the destination nor the duration of the holiday.
It was impossible to fathom the purpose of this obfuscation.
Finally, after prodding from some sections of the press, the mystery unraveled. It was revealed that Newsom was vacationing in Montana.
Why would he hide traveling to Montana?
Newsom previously banned taxpayer-funded trips to Montana and 21 other states for their 'anti-LGBTQ' laws banning transgender athletes from competing in women’s sports. Newsom’s office also slammed Montana for restricting abortion access.
Newsom was unwilling to share particulars about his vacation because he knew it would make his dual standards obvious, which would be politically perilous. Especially considering the rumors that he may be running for President in 2024.
