    Newsom is a LIAR he has driven corporations and businesses out of the state unemployment rate is the third highest in the country tech industry is laying off workers and or letting higher wages go and replacing them with lower pay workers. His government jobs he created that is paid by taxpayers are laying off also. He doesn’t acknowledge that foreclosures are up and people can’t afford to buy a home or rent. We have the highest prices on food gas and electricity but the economy according to him is good. He has to know that he is lying
