Warning: Newsom, like all truth tellers, will be hit with smears and misinfo

His message is dangerous for much of the corporate media, corporations, and billionaires. He will not be treated fairly. We need to be aware of this. All Dems need to support him whether they think he is "the one" to beat trump in 2028 or not. He's the one fighting. He's fighting for us.

I've already heard the left diss him on Stephanie Ruhle's show by calling him slick and a hypocrite. There is no room for that. Right now he is the truth teller with a big megaphone and a power seat that gives him strength. Governor of the sixth largest economy in the world and the largest, most populist state is power. We can not give that power up by being distracted and nitpicking.

His message today is something all Dems should begin echoing: Wake up, America. You will not have a country if he rigs this election. You will have a president running for a third term. Mark my word."

Anyone disagree with that?

And let's not be intimidated when the corporate media starts bashing him. They will swoon if he dares to do the same thing as trump. We need to call them out for that.
