State of Delusion! Gavin Newsom Press Office Has the AUDACITY to Call California a 'Free State'
Denial isn't just a river in Egypt; it's also a state of mind in California.
Governor Gavin Newsom keeps insisting his state is 'free' -- contrary to all evidence -- and keeps getting absolutely dragged for it.

Let's count all the ways it isn't a free state.

Good luck with that.
You filled skate parks with sand to stop people from getting fresh air during a pandemic. https://t.co/XhyxlSZU54

That's (D)ifferent.
In 2020 you criminalized communal worship while keeping open liquor stores and marijuana dispensaries because they were “essential.” https://t.co/bqX7RneL8C

Gavin Newsom hates religious freedom.
CA wont be free until there is true diversity in the state, where all political views are heard and not redrawn out of existence, where representation is proportional to the vote. https://t.co/ouGvrfqu5b

WHY IS EVERYONE LEAVING CALIFORNIA? https://t.co/JyDmcie5PP

THE FREEDOM IS TOO MUCH TO HANDLE.
Not.
It's an authoritarian hellhole.
