(WND)—Echoes of the American Civil War were heard this week in the governor’s press room. California Gov. Gavin Newsom has called a special legislative session to take the first steps to secede from an America led by Donald Trump. California will be kept free of Washington-imposed slavery.
Of course, in the political verbiage of the 21st century, the session will “protect California values” such as “fundamental civil rights, reproductive freedom, climate action, immigrant families and more.”
These things, the governor declared, are threatened by the election of Donald Trump.
The first step of this special legislative session will be to “shore up California’s defenses against an incoming federal administration that has threatened the state on multiple fronts.”
Apparently, he has in mind secession from the union. But first, some more rhetoric:
“The freedoms we hold dear in California are under attack – and we won’t sit idle.” And then Newsom borrows from Winston Churchill: “California have faced this challenge before and we know how to respond. We are prepared to fight in the courts, and we will do everything necessary to ensure Californians have the support and the resources they need to thrive.”
He does not mention what constituted the previous challenge, or how a vote of the American people threatens residents of California, but he involved California’s attorney general, who declares, “No matter what the incoming administration has in store, California will keep moving forward.”
The governor’s handout also involves Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas, quoted as saying, “I’m ready to fight harder than ever for opportunity, equality and a Golden State that works for each and every resident.” Completing the great wall of California is a similar endorsement from State Senate President Mike McGuire with a declaration that “We learned a lot about former President Trump in his first term – he’s petty, vindictive and will do what it takes to get his way no matter how dangerous the policy may be. California has come too far and accomplished too much to simply surrender and accept his dystopian vision for America.”
So much danger and so little time.
The first duty of this special legislative session is to issue public statements. What President Trump says will be refuted. The special session will focus on women’s rights and LGBTQ+ rights. The special session will appropriate more money to the attorney general to file litigation against the Trump administration.
Once would surmise from Newsom’s press release that he already has rescued California from the dark ages: “Since 2019 Governor Newsom and the California Legislature have defended progress, expanded civil rights, and protected California values.” One wonders how the Golden State survived from the gold rush days of 1849 to the coming of Gavin.
His bragging points to sustain his modest appraisal of his accomplishments then cite 25 legislative bills and $200 million consumed to “protect reproductive rights” and $45 billion spent on climate change energy policy. That is, by the way, a gross understatement of the state’s climate expenditures.
With the change in administration coming in Washington, D.C., Newsom suddenly has discovered states’ rights, so much so he is one step away from secession. In fact the similarities are so strong, Newsom studiously avoided the race issue in this media blitz.
The announcement had to be covered by local media, and so Newsom was able to campaign against Donald Trump even before Trump assumed office. Setting aside the issues Newsom raised, the Democrat Party is not going to consider any policy changes or moderations. They are right on all issues. The Republicans are not only wrong, they are repugnant, and the voters, well, they screwed up, partly because freedom of speech was not corrected by the managers of “mis” and “dis” information.

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
Let LA and SF seceed.. We will wall them off, and keep them bottled up, until the problem solves itself.
well hell, we might have to consider moving. we’ve been here and raised our family for the past 40+ years and watched as the marxist dems have literally f’d up what was good about this state…. gawd!
All these Newsom blathering are a distraction from failed Democrat policies.
Good get rid of them. We would be a better country x10 without them Who Cares
Trump won, which is the only reason we’re hearing any of this. And it’s probably a fake story. My understanding is California allowed this past Presidential election without any semblance of ID required. In fact refusing to see ID that was offered them. If this is true, technically, they’re not even a State anyway, and they believe the Rule of Law doesn’t apply to them. Obviously they’re not happy with the 9th Circuit since it was “Trumpized”. If they want to leave? I don’t think anyone east of them will argue and would be glad to sever ties with them. Except for maybe Vermont, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts. And Texas should also be allowed to leave as well if they really want to. But be aware, if they leave they’re on their own with no Federal support at all. Everything would have to be by treaty only. And we all know how the US treats foreign countries, and its treaties. And they cannot stop US citizens or US businesses from leaving either. On the course they’re on, with people leaving and even their oil companies leaving, how will they survive losing all their essential personal and major businesses? They can’t be allowed to hold any people now living there against their will. Other than that, please leave and don’t let the door hit you on the way out. Something tells me you’re going to lose Hollywood. OH WAIT! You already have.
Sounds like a real insurrection. Lock him up!
Does Lex Luthor have some kind of bat signal so he can help California move farther left than the continental shelf?
Calif. succession would be a good thing, as all those democrats leaving the U.S. voting pool would ensure Conservative U.S. Govt for many many years. This fact will cause the Democratic party to strongly oppose Calif succession.
Yes, let them leave. The wall would be built around them too. No trade at all. All government assets would be removed. The army would help with that. Their huge block of votes…gone! All they want is federal money to pay for their outrageous California family values. Corporations would leave as well. CA would become a true hell hole. All of the remaining conservatives would move out. They would have zero tax base. It would be funny really. Anyway, what will most likely happen is a forced change of State Government with federal troops. No State May leave the Union. State leaders would be jailed for treason and new elections would be called.
Bye Felicia.
The insistence to further illegal aliens is aiding and abetting our enemy, and that is a federal offense. Gavin Newsom is playing a VERY dangerous game. He’s showing how being involved in a violent cult designed to overthrow America and turn it into a Globalist state corrupts the mind and has you doing stupid things to get your way. He’s stamping his feet demanding everyone listen to him, but we’re all out here laughing at him. He will be arrested and charged with nearly 30 violations of federal law and probably a count for each illegal.
