Trump Sets Military Against Civilians; Service Members Have Duty To Disobey

June 12, 2025 Marjorie Cohn, Truthout. , , , , , , ,
Four and a half months after his inauguration, Donald Trump is exercising his authoritarian chops, targeting immigrants in the state he most despises — California. Making good on Trump’s nativist pledge to deport millions of undocumented immigrants, agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the Department of Homeland Security started conducting widespread raids outside workplaces in Los Angeles. They began on June 6, with no prior notification to the California governor, L.A. mayor or local law enforcement.

Gavin Newsom: Zionist In Waiting

January 10, 2024 Ann Garrison, Black Agenda Report. , , , ,
Those who want to cast a vote against Israel's war on Gaza in next year's presidential election have no choices except Dr. Jill Stein  and Dr. Cornel West . Biden is 1000% behind Israel, as are Trump and all his Republican competitors, and independent RFK Jr. may be the worst  pro-Zionist contender among them. Biden’s seeming heir apparent, California Governor Gavin Newsom, had the colors of the Israeli flag projected  on the state capitol building on October 9, then flew off to Israel to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Isaac Herzog and grandstand about how personal Israeli anguish had become to him after meeting with survivors of the October 7 Hamas attack.

Gavin Newsom Hands Out Fracking Permits To Connected Driller

June 22, 2020 By Steve Horn, Capital & Main. , , ,
On June 1, in the midst of the turmoil created by the coronavirus pandemic and the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis, California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s administration quietly issued 12 fracking permits to Aera Energy, a joint venture owned by ExxonMobil and Shell. The fracking permits are the latest example of California’s oil industry benefiting from regulatory or deregulatory action during the COVID-19 pandemic and came just months after the Newsom administration said it supported taking actions to “manage the decline of oil production and consumption in the state.” Aera, which also received 24 permits from the California Geologic Energy Management Division (CalGEM) on April 3 during the early days of COVID-19, has well-connected lobbyists in its corner who work for the firm Axiom Advisors.
