California Democrats approve $50M budget to help Newsom ‘Trump-proof’
the state

California Democrats have authorized $50 million in state funding as
part of an overall drive to protect residents from what lawmakers
believe to be “inhumane” threats posed by President-elect Trump’s
forthcoming administration.

State Senate Budget Committee Chair Scott Wiener (D) announced Monday he
would amend legislation to provide $25 million to support legal aid
services for California residents at risk of deportation. The bill is
the result of a special legislative session that began last month, amid
Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D) efforts to “Trump-proof” the Golden State from
potential federal interference.

Wiener’s Monday announcement, made on behalf of the Senate Democratic
Caucus, complements another $25 million authorized by state
Assemblymember Jesse Gabriel (D). Those funds will go to the California
Department of Justice — a measure Newsom began seeking last month, at
the start of the special legislative session.

“California faces two massive challenges,” Wiener said in a statement,
noting the first revolves around rebuilding the lives of tens of
thousands of residents in the wake of “horrific destructive wildfires in
Los Angeles.”

The second challenge, he explained, is “an incoming federal
administration that has vowed to make it harder for Los Angeles to
recover, by withholding disaster relief and deporting immigrant
Angelenos who have been impacted by the fires and who are actively
helping their neighbors.”

“National MAGA Republicans wasted no time politicizing the horrific
tragedy unfolding in Los Angeles,” Wiener said. “As the fires burned,
the president-elect, his allies, and senior congressional Republican
officials proposed withholding California’s disaster aid and imposing
unprecedented conditions on this humanitarian relief. They also spread
absurd conspiracy theories about the fires.”

Describing such threats as “inhumane,” Wiener stressed the importance of
the special session funding agreement, as well as California’s position
as “a bulwark against Trump’s extremist agenda.”

I'm sure that the people who lost everything are relieved to know that their city/state has
been Trump proofed, whatever that means.

There's the problem. One Wiener too many in the legislature. Toss it on
the grill then feed the homeless.

They have no idea what it means themselves. They will simply waste money
on bunches of meaningless court cases while Trump takes them to the
cleaners for the one or two priorities just like he did last time.

They're idiots and get elected because of the top-two system. Those who
win might only get 20% of the actual vote to qualify to be in the top two
on the ballet. When the actual election occurs though, they are the only
candidates and wind up with 50-60% of the vote because of sheep voters.

They about shit this year when Trump got 40% of the vote in the state.
