Gavin Newsom is looking to ‘cut corners’ with his new law enforcement budget: Joel Aylworth
Former San Francisco police officer Joel Aylworth weighs in on Gavin Newsom’s proposed budget to cut over $185M from California law enforcement.

Gov. Gavin Newsom’s, D-Calif., proposal to restrict gun rights through a 28th amendment to the U.S. Constitution has failed to gain national traction since it was unveiled one year ago.

Despite the Democratic governor’s enthusiasm in 2023, exactly zero states have agreed to his call for the constitutional convention necessary to amend the U.S. Constitution.

Newsom claimed Sunday that this lack of progress was expected and the amendment could take decades to gain momentum.


"Come on, no one was naive about this," Newsom said in an interview with the Los Angeles Times. "This has been done before, but not recently. It will have its fits and starts. It will have its champions and will have its setbacks."

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
