After Gavin Newsom Spent Billions To 'Fix' CA Homelessness…He Brag-Tweets About 'Slowing The Growth'

Posted • December 28, 2024: This writer believes Gavin Newsom is going to throw his hat in the ring for 2028. He's been making noise for a while now, and seems to have his eyes set on things above and beyond California's governor's mansion. The problem is his record: California is a dumpster fire of a state. Cities like L.A. and San Francisco have crime problems, drug problems, and issues with literal human poop on the streets. In other cities, businesses are shuttering due to crime and homelessness. Newsom has spent billions to 'fix' the homeless problem in the state. Billions. And it hasn't worked. But here he is, trying to take a victory lap. Pay close attention to the words he uses:

Governor Newsom @CAgovernor: “California has dramatically slowed and reduced the growth of homelessness – making more progress than a majority of other states, the nation as a whole, and previous administrations. We’re continuing to lead the charge in getting people off the streets & connected to care.” https://x.com/CAgovernor/status/1872786197208244519 -- Slowed and reduced the growth. So it's still growing, just not as much. What a slimeball. It's also a lie, too. Community Notes, for the win: “Gavin Newsom’s post is completely misleading - California’s homelessness is not declining, it’s growing YOY. Since 2019, California has spent about $24 billion on homelessness, but in this five-year period, homelessness increased by about 30,000, to more than 181,000.” -- The Note is visible with several links.

This is San Francisco. $24 BILLION tax dollars spent on the homeless crisis. A recent audit showed no one knows where the money went. The government has a lot of blood on their hands… Thanks to Gavin Newsom & Kamala Harris. No one knows where the money went. Gavin Newsom just bought a new mansion outside of San Francisco, maybe check there first. Only Gavin Newsom could lose 24 billion taxpayer dollars while growing homelessness and claim to be the blueprint for the rest of the nation… When your aim is to destroy the nation, it is a blueprint.
