Newsom slammed for ‘hypocritical’ resistance to California cities rejecting his policies
 
A California lawmaker attacked Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA)  for pursuing what he described as “hypocritical” plans to fight the incoming Trump administration.

Republican state Assemblyman Bill Essayli is far from offering grateful platitudes to the Democratic governor ahead of Thanksgiving. Speaking about Newsom’s recently announced plans to “Trump proof” California and prevent a GOP agenda from touching the Golden State, Essayli said the governor’s move rang insincerely.
 
"It's frankly hypocritical that Newsom wants to say: ‘As a state, we want to exempt ourselves from Trump’s policies,' but Newsom would never tolerate the same from local jurisdictions exempting themselves from his policies,” the lawmaker told Fox News Digital.

Essayli represents California's 63rd District in Riverside County, one of California’s most populous counties, which is also a majority Hispanic. Essayli won his first election in 2022 with a victory that flipped the district red.

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

Not only would Gruesom not accept CA cities proofing themselves from CA state policies, Gruesom would not tolerate any state proofing itself from the policies of a left-wing president, like Biden.
