Will California Voters Finally Rebuke Newsom?

Newsom was critical to the passage of Proposition 47, as he was the only statewide public official to endorse it when it was passed 10 years ago.

When I traveled to San Francisco to research my new book, Newsom Unleashed: The Progressive Lust for Unbridled Power, a local recounted witnessing a criminal walk through a store with a calculator app pulled up on his phone to ensure that the value of the goods he stole stayed under $950. To get a further sense of the mayhem resulting from Newsom's crime policies in California, consider what happened when Whole Foods tried to open up its "Flagship store" in the middle of San Francisco, ground zero for Newsom's soft-on-crime disaster.

Despite Proposition 47's abject failure, Newsom is using all the hardball tactics he can to keep the anti-Proposition 47 initiative off the ballot.

Newsom created his own alternative legislative framework to address property crime that served as a supposedly superior solution.

Newsom then attempted to use negotiations over his legislative package to force anti-crime activists to pull their measure off the ballot until 2026.

" Next, Newsom's allies in the Legislature inserted "Poison pills" into Newsom's legislative framework that would invalidate those bills if voters succeed in overturning Proposition 47.

If only Newsom could be this aggressive toward criminals.
