Wow, not surprised though. Newsom is just a horrible person

Madeline McCormick's avatar

Yes, a snake. Horrible man.

Those woke clueless politicians and bureaucrats were installed so that when things like this happen they will get the blame rather than the globalists injecting them into government while setting the woke agenda. It’s backwards from what most think. The “competency crisis” is a deliberate controlled demolition masquerading around as an accident of well meaning useful virtue signaling idiots:

The wildfires were not caused due to incompetence, but rather “on purpose malice” posing as incompetence.

Blessings to the victims.

Beat Girl's avatar

Yes agree and I also feel the competency crisis helps them usher in AI and technocracy. Why leave it in the hands of people who have flaws when computers can rule so much more “efficiently”

TriTorch's avatar

Yep, they are ushering in a technocratic panopticon fueled nightmare:

Think You Won't Comply? I Think You Will: Australian Senator Antic On 15 Minute City Nightmare: https://old.bitchute.com/video/CxsyAqM4oTod (1.5mins)

In order to achieve this they have to burn down the existing order. When Lahaina was torched and leveled (on purpose), they already had in place legislation to rebuild it as a SMART city:

https://old.bitchute.com/video/7PHrl6Vkpqyh (3mins)

They’re reaching a level of control where WEF head Harari (his power and influence cannot be overstated) feels confident telling us that our Free Will is over while contemplating killing us outright out loud in public:

“Mr. Harari, thinking about all this, puts it this way: “Utopia and dystopia depends on your values.” …

The useless class he describes is uniquely vulnerable. “If a century ago you mounted a revolution against exploitation, you knew that when bad comes to worse, they can’t shoot all of us because they need us,” he said, citing army service and factory work.

Now it is becoming less clear why the ruling elite would not just kill the new useless class. “You’re totally expendable,” he told the audience. … “We don’t need you. But we are nice, so we’ll take care of you.” —Source (worth reading in full): https://archive.is/rWLoO

We cannot let them get away with this!

Good to see you here Tri. Just posted some info on satellites and ecocide, and wasn't sure how "right" my thinking seems to many on this thread.

TriTorch's avatar

Thanks Roman, from my perspective on the Perimeter (a great vantage point, I do believe), you sir, are right over the target.

Tammy Windsor's avatar

Great piece! I’ve lived in SoCal for 20 years and Newsom is as slimy as his hair gel! This is all about a plan deconstruction of our state so he can execute his pre-planned 15 minute city and his shinny new Olympic structures. He is a shell of a person that has sold his soul to the highest bidder. And to think he wants to be our president! God help us!

nothappynow's avatar

Shut up...u don't like him fine...but newsom has been great thru this disaster. If ur a trumper than go spout off if it nake u feel better. But newsom has been a governor for the people

Laura's avatar

Ooh you won’t last long here. Yikes.

nothappynow's avatar

R u sure? Go ahead report me...for what? Being in opposition of ur opinions? GFO

Leslie Deak's avatar

How could you possibly think he's great if he shut down communication systems?!! Not to mention ignoring incompetence of LA's leadership that resulted in the current distruction. Are you a bot or just a troll?

nothappynow's avatar

What r u talking about? Communication was a bit difficult bc of 100 mph winds...if thats what ur saying...ur misinformed. No I'm apersin who doesn't get unto themselves and lies. Start being more informed and stop lying

Carolyn's avatar

Nicely written, thank you for speaking this. I'd like to add, "they" have already lost. They'll desperately continue trying to hold onto power and cause destruction, while aiding disclosure. We're just going through the motions now.

nothappynow's avatar

Do u know the definition of woke? Republicans think woke is a dirty word. So who r u referring to

Teri Lynn's avatar

Unfortunately, After all this, I will not be surprised if California still continues to vote Democrat.

FH's avatar

Jessica, what’s the time frame on this story? I read yesterday that Tesla trucks were deployed to provide battery banks for Starlink connections.

Julie Groves's avatar

I agree! Liberal leaning still listen to what the media says (nbc,cbs,abc,cnn etc). It’s unfortunate but if this doesn’t open their eyes I’m afraid nothing ever will.

nothappynow's avatar

U know nothing since u only watch fox.

Elke's avatar

Dumb comment. Anyone who is here doesn’t only watch fox.

nothappynow's avatar

R u sure or r u a maga liar. Sine of these comments r from fox.

nothappynow's avatar

No we don't we r smarter than that...internet has unbiased network to get correct news. Don't assume...

Skinny's avatar

I don’t think so, this is going to move Californians to the right.

Kristin's avatar

No, liberals don’t tend to buy right wing misinformation.

nothappynow's avatar

BLUE ALL THE WAY CHICA 💙💙💙💙

nothappynow's avatar

YES! No, magas will never control California. Too many 'blues' and we will continue to multiple as the continued crap continues in congress trying to take away marginalized groups rights and women

nothappynow's avatar

Yes we will. Go blue 💙💙💙

Dawnea's avatar

cannot wait for @DOGE to pull up on the entire Cali gov and open the books. I lost my house I lost my office . ENOUGH

So sorry for your loss.

I know it is more than awful. I watched the effects of the Santa Rosa fires in 2017…it upends life. Hang on, you are remembered in prayers and may love conquer all fears and discomfort.

FH's avatar

So sorry, it’s awful. FYI, DOGE is federal not state. Somehow the state needs its own. I hope Nicole Shanahan steps up in 2026.

Kristin's avatar

The department of government efficiency is a federal thing. They can’t investigate states on a whim. Please take a civics course.

nothappynow's avatar

Why dd u loose ur home and business? And u believe California the problem if u feel that way why r u still living here? Move to Texas or Florida ..maybe there u can get ur pathetic life back

Mandy's avatar

Why are you even here? Just to antagonize every single person who comments? It’s overdone and you’re boring us.

nothappynow's avatar

Yes that my mission when misinformation is at there ok? U don't like block me POS

Paranormalicious's avatar

This didn't happen to L.A. This was done to L.A. The sooner everyone understands this, the better. This was planned and on purpose.

nothappynow's avatar

Stop this stupid conspiracy...can't come up w something better? POS

Kristin's avatar

Not how it works, unfortunately. The area is prone to fires, and has been having them annually for many years.

Scott's avatar

Well if Californian's need anymore evidence that Newsom only cares about himself, and not the welfare of the citizens of California, they need not look for anymore evidence. The irrationality of such a decision should enrage everyone and the citizens of CA should call for an immediate recall of him. On top of this he won't take responsibility for any part of the disaster or CA's ability to fight the fires. Just blames everyone else. The definition of a POS human.

Roman S Shapoval's avatar

Problem is - some people love to be ruled and taken, since the masculine instinct inside of them is weak after decades of eating crap and not lifting heavy.

Roman S Shapoval's avatar

Gotta love the Bama - that good old indonesian dictator.

nothappynow's avatar

Most California love newsom...watch out he's going to be ur next president...sucker

nothappynow's avatar

U r a miserable person. Stop blaming newsom for everything that's gone wrong in ur life.

Scott's avatar

Newsom is one of t scummiest politicians in the United States and there is a lot of competition Luckily I don’t have to put up with his shit. Plenty of evidence to support my position. And contrary to your response I don’t blame Newsom for anything in my life but if I lived in California I sure would.

Malia's avatar

What a petty person. He has shown the world how incompetent he is and now his run for president will never work now that everyone sees how incapable he is.

Skinny's avatar

God forbid that man should ever become President of the USA.

nothappynow's avatar

Looking forward...newsom 2028 💙

Bad Sandy's avatar

Newsom is s going to prison, babe

nothappynow's avatar

Nope. Plus give me three actually reason he should go to jail. Not what u think he did that would warrant going to jail. If you can't then please stfu

Paul Escandon's avatar

Funny to see Gavin refuting this on the timeline. You’re doing amazing work, Jessica.

4th degree of momhood's avatar

Newsom should resign. He’s not fit to be a governor. Taking action on a personal grudge and the only people it hurts is the citizens of California - it doesn’t hurt Musk. He donated those units.

Newsom isn’t fit to govern. Resign.

nothappynow's avatar

Stfu he's doing great. The recall proved that.

Elke's avatar

Are you his mom? Or his bit on the side?

nothappynow's avatar

Sure if think so idiot.

Jennie Humphreys's avatar

Newsom is going to eventually wind himself up in prison. I can’t even fathom the lawsuits heading his way after this mess he created. The interview of him talking about rebuilding LA while fires are still burning was sick, and he seemed elated about what he was saying.

Kennedy's avatar

He really did. I can't wait until the homeowners in Pacific Palisades sue for negligence.

LizR's avatar

He was so all over the board in the interview made me think he was back on the "nose candy" "snow"! Hi arm gestures all over the place, talking fast etc. He is the absolute worst!

KAG's avatar

my friend literally said the same thing as you. Is he on Coke? LOL

LizR's avatar

He was know to really indulge in it in the past. He must've needed his energy up for the cameras. Newsom is an absolute piece of shit!

Brandie's avatar

California 2.0?! Ummm read the room ass clown. This isn’t a game show. These are people’s lives that you personally have destroyed.

KAG's avatar

Yep! I thought that was odd too.

A Gal Without A Tribe's avatar

It’s more than politics. It’s NWO agenda. They needed and wanted ultimate destruction. And Newsom is their foot soldier.

Karina Schneidman MBA, MS-MFT's avatar

Do you know how I know that this is likely the scenario? I watch what people do not what they say and Newsom has consistently looked out only for himself and I’m not even touching his affair back in the day. His state (my childhood home) is burning down and he’s busy trying to argue with people who are offering him help. He’s ego has become the size of the 🏐🏐 he’s never had. A man who can’t take accountability, accept help and know when to be humble is not yet a man. Yuck.

Karina Schneidman MBA, MS-MFT's avatar

This is a perfect example of “I’m sorry but…” I’m not exactly sure why the percent value (whatever it may be) is relevant, but everyone processes information and loss differently. Thanks for stopping by!

Kristin's avatar

The fires are a tragedy but they don’t even constitute a single percent of the state.

Greg Conners's avatar

Repeating unsubstantiated nonsense about leadership during a wildfire is messed up. Have you researched the issue (or for that matter, the politics of the fire fighter?)

Do not accept crap as news.

Jessica Reed Kraus's avatar

Reporting what I was told from a trusted source, backed by battalion officer, Greg.

Janine's avatar

He literally accepts crap as news based on his restacks. A response from you is better than he deserves 🤭

Greg Conners's avatar

Good for you. If anyone want some backround on this author, I recommend this article from Elle Magazine: https://www.elle.com/culture/career-politics/a62719834/who-is-house-inhabit-jessica-reed-kraus/

I believe in fact-checking and am familiar with public safety politics. Apparently, you do not and are not.

Lindsey B's avatar

😂 Greg, we do NOT get our info from Elle Magazine in 2025.

Greg Conners's avatar

Good facts in that article, clearly written. Did you look at it?

Apparently, you get your facts from JR Kraus?? Newsom is MAGA’s biggest nightmare. MAGA has no morals. Pretty simple opportunity for more typical cheap lies from MAGA. Is the Obvious now dead to us?

Kennedy's avatar

It's cute that you think Newsom has any morals whatsoever.

Lisa Marie's avatar

Keep believing your California leaders as your state burns to the ground.

Greg Conners's avatar

No mention of any quotes from leadership are included in this piece. It is apparently not necessary to check with the accused when it comes to MAGA. Clear your head.

Andy Nowicki's avatar

I agree, Greg! Newsome and Bass are in fact *incredibly* competent leaders who clearly want what's best for California and haven't committed numerous unforgivable mistakes and embarrassing gaffes during this whole debacle (that's just misinformation, which ought to be immediately censored!). Anyone with evidence that the CA leadership has been less than stellar in their response to this diaster should be banned from social media *forever*... Keep the faith, O ye stalwart fag checker! 🫡

Dana Warrington's avatar

Omg!! So laughable!!! You people are incredible!!

FH's avatar

They are not leaders. They are public servants - or at least they’re supposed to be. We the People lost the thread and need to pick it back up again.

4th degree of momhood's avatar

You’re forgetting what journalism is. Asking questions, getting responses, not putting any spin or lean on it, and allowing the readers to decide for themselves how they feel about the subject matter.

Something that the “writer” at Elle seems to lack. Her bias was 100% in plain sight. Jessica is self made and she’s amazing. She has a gift.

If you don’t like her writing, why are you here?

Kristin's avatar

Do…do you think this author doesn’t spin things? Do you think she does research and fact checks?

Dee Cee's avatar

Perhaps we have some recently unemployed fAcT cHeCkErS joining us in the thread. 😎

Teri Lynn's avatar

Dude man, go bark up another tree. There is a solid reason we are loyal followers of HIH... and it's strictly because of people like you and MSM.

Greg Conners's avatar

Really, I am the one who tossed you into this cesspool? Whew. Okay.

Mandy's avatar

He’s citing Elle magazine as a reliable source”source”. 🤭 Bless his heart.

This is a gossip blog and you consider it a source, lol.

Kacee's avatar

Slightly embarrassed you used Elle as your source for Jessica's background... "News and Politics" is 5th on their website under Fashion, Shopping, Beauty, Culture and Horoscopes... Not the place I'm going for anything relevant to anything that actually matters.

Karina Schneidman MBA, MS-MFT's avatar

My favorite part is how the internet enabled all these “incredibly amazing minds” like Greg 😏 to pass judgement on what is and isn’t factual and who is and isn’t professional as if they know better. Sometime between dialup and wifi folks got themselves PhDs in measuring professional value. Incredible evolution going on here. Epic. 😂😂😂

Greg Conners's avatar

Seemed okay to me, but here is a different take, from Wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jessica_Reed_Kraus

Kacee's avatar

wikipedia... You do know anyone can edit that, right? I have followed Jessica since before the Ghislaine trials, I don't need articles to tell me how she has hurt their feelings because she doesn't line up and say what they want.

Dana Warrington's avatar

Wikipedia is not a credible source as it can be edited by anyone.

Dana Warrington's avatar

You obviously have a screw loose! You are citing people that are indirect competition with the goal to smear Jessica! It’s so ridiculous just give up! You are irrelevant!

Kristin's avatar

Jessica is not in the same league as Elle or Mother Jones. They provide evidence, issue retractions with they’re wrong, and do actual research.

Elke's avatar

You’re not very good at convincing people, are you?

Carol Ann Conners's avatar

Listen ladies, I never even heard of Jessica until this morning. I just finished reading the articles that Greg posted. Anyone that supports a lying 34 count felon and a sexual predator and is a woman ought to have their head examined.

Using gossip, anonymous sources, and innuendo does not make a journalist.

Lisa's avatar

Maybe you should dig just a little deeper than 24 hours and get back with us. How quick were you to jump on the haters bandwagon? The beauty of being a woman is I get to choose, right? That applies to more than just reproductive rights. Move on and troll someplace else. We are independent minded thinkers here and if we have not been fooled by corporate media we certainly are not going to be swayed by you.

Tonni's avatar

I, for the life of me, do not understand why you and Greg come here to spew hate. I have zero desire to go troll someone’s Substack I don’t agree with. For the past 3-4 years that I’ve followed Jessica, I’ve watched the trolls come & go. We all know the game. Unless you truly want to have civil conversations, which it’s clear you don’t with your MAGA hate. Liberals are truly deranged.

Karina Schneidman MBA, MS-MFT's avatar

Negative feedback loops release dopamine and other stress hormones, which give the brain a temporary high. Naturally, being critical of information and assessing risk requires more effort, so this is easier. People get excitement out of negative interactions. Let them spew their negativity, they’re just trying to get high 😂.

Tonni's avatar

Good to know! Thank you, Karina. Maybe I should test the theory. 🤣

Dana Warrington's avatar

Why are you here? Her bio/site clearly states celebrity gossip….most of which turns out to be true!

GabeReal's avatar

You’re way behind. You haven’t yet figured out that all those charges are b.s. lawfare.

Karina Schneidman MBA, MS-MFT's avatar

Substack you better not be bringing Russian bots here. 😏

J. Lincoln's avatar

Did Newsom stop off at a neighbourhood thrift store and grab some third-hand Carharts to lend to the I'm-just-a-hardworkin'-man look? It ain't working Gavin, those soft looking pinkies are giving you away. Another stinking chameleon like Hillary Clinton, both having pissed away their wet dreams of redecorating the Whitehouse...now they can devote their energies to avoiding incarceration.

Claudia's avatar

Execution for crimes against humanity

Fauci too

Mariah Robles's avatar

This makes me so angry that I want to cry. That is the most UNAMERICAN response from Newsome. When we're in a crisis, we band together. NOT play politics. I still have misgivings from Musk but do refuse help?? If you live in CA, think twice before re-electing Newsome...

Christine VanDeVelde's avatar

I actually don’t think there is such thing as a Starlink “modem.” Starlink is a satellite system. It has a dish that points to the sky and collects the signal. You can’t just go to a store and buy a “modem” and connect to the internet via Starlink. There is no such thing as a modem on their website in their online store.

That said, they sell a service called “Roam” which appears to be a backpack kit that has everything you need in it. Maybe that’s what they are talking about.

But calling it a modem in this story undermines your credibility.

Jessica Reed Kraus's avatar

I see a device that looks like a very sleek Starlink modem online.

A Gal Without A Tribe's avatar

It’s like a small satellite dish that works with line of sight-it has to be used outside to get a signal from the satellites

Christine VanDeVelde's avatar

I don't see anything on the website that is called a modem or looks like one. Want to send a screen shot?

Emmanuelle's avatar

https://www.starlink.com/ca/roam

This is a link to the Starlink Roam. Took me five seconds to look it up.

Kristin's avatar

It’s not a modem.
