Watch the elitist sleazebag Gavin Newsom being exposed for espousing draconian "rules for thee but not for me."

"I rise this morning in defense for Governor Gavin Newsom, who recently defied his own idiotic COVID edicts as he partied at one of the few restaurants that's not yet been forced out of business,” McClintock said in a floor speech on Thursday. 

“I defend him because he was doing what we all once did in our free society: run what risks we’re willing to run and what precautions we’re willing to take according to our own circumstances to protect our own health,” McClintock continued.

Newsom apologized on Friday after the San Francisco Chronicle reported that he and his wife attended a birthday party for his longtime adviser Jason Kinney. The governor had advised against such types of events over the course of the pandemic.
