They have Silicon Valley and the largest population of any US state. Gavin Newsom gets zero credit for either of these things. You only have to look at how incredibly badly prepared for and managed the palisade fires were to see the level of incompetence under Gavin Newsom.

So you're saying a large population is correlated to a very healthy economy?

Remind me again why we want to kick immigrants out?

No I'm not remotely saying that and I thought we were talking about Gavin Newsom? And I'm not wasting any more time with you, it's pointless.

The topic is "Marines being mobilized in response to LA protests." The protests are about ICE rounding up people on suspicion of being undocumented immigrants. Whether a place being full of undocumented immigrants is actually a bad thing is extremely salient to the topic, especially when the President has decided it's worth pointing the military's guns at our own citzenry over.

No the topic within this particular sub-thread had diverted to the competency of Gavin Newsom.
