California Democrats approve $50M to 'Trump-proof' the state

California Gov. Gavin Newsom and other Democratic state lawmakers have set aside $50 million to fend off policies Republican President-elect Donald Trump says he will enact once in office. After criticism from the GOP, Newsom also appropriated funds for wildfire relief.

California Prioritizes DEI, Politics and People here ILLEGALLY over the Safety of their Citizens, the Taxpayers

[Chdromtl]

If they have 50 million to blow on this why do they need federal funding?

[teresaxaundria]

Those idiots just burned down their state and they are worried about Trump? That takes a special kind of stupid.

[HowHigh_Juana]

That money should have been spent on the forestry department before these fires started

[scottankers]

Meanwhile cut the budgets of fire and police depts. Out of touch idiots.

[rickdumont]

I find it disturbing that they can find money to "Trump proof" the state, but can't find money to take care of basic needs.

[lilsprx]

50 million dollars this but not for water?? Wow these people are crazy.

[erniedesantis]

They can't fight fires and protect the actual citizens of their state but they can protect illegal immigrants? Are you serious? I'm no Trumper but this is absolutely ridiculous. How can so many people have their priorities so ass-backwards?

[firstmedtech]

Sounds like they don’t need anymore money….

[angelkt]

Obviously they don't care about the wildfires and people's lives

[nikkismith]

By "Trump Proof".... They mean
AMERICA LAST.

[narcissaclink]

Then california doesn't get any funding.

[johnhmielewski]

So they have 50 million for this but not for the victims of the fire?

[arnieslab]

Guy can’t even get water to fight fires and he’s worried about Trump 😂😂😂.

[moonwork]

Someone should put a stop to the money for Trump proofing CA and Gavin Newsom should resign. Not fair to taxpayers. CA already has too big of a deficit, out of control crime, and a general poor quality of life in what has become an unaffordable state to live in. What happened to the $24B that was supposed to be designated for unhoused housing? CA is a ridiculous state to live in any more. I was born and raised here and Gavin running the state has become unbearable. 👎🏻💯😞🤬

[rjv]

these idiots running california are out of their minds.... wow, just amazing

[peaceanle]

$50 million to fight the orange man and protecting illegal immigrants. But $0 for fire prevention and protection… cool bruh 😤

[mikemaresca]

California also approved 7.5 billion in 2014 for their water infrastructure.... we see how well that went.

[G-Man-half-life]

As a California resident Gavin Newsom is the worse governor in all of California history… Gavin Newsom needs to be replaced with someone else who’s more qualified for the governor job.

[lisab]

Don’t give them a dime of Federal money for the fires.
