Bill Maher Demands Gavin Newsom Explain the Government Hoops Blocking His Roof Repair

California is drowning in red tape—and Bill Maher just put Gavin Newsom on the spot to explain why. See how Newsom responds.

🧵 THREAD

Bill Maher has been trying to make changes to his roof for ages—but California’s endless red tape keeps getting in the way. Frustrated by the constant bureaucratic hurdles, Maher finally had the chance to confront Governor Gavin Newsom face-to-face and ask why even basic repairs feel impossible in California.

This isn’t Maher’s first run-in with California’s bureaucratic nightmare. Back in 2018, when he first tried installing solar panels, Maher faced over three years of delays due to endless permits and red tape.

Now, facing another roof debacle after the wildfires, Maher is sick of the unnecessary hurdles.

“Let’s talk about what’s important: my roof,” Maher said firmly to Newsom.

“Your roof?” Newsom asked—surprised.

“My roof,” Maher reiterated.

Maher explained that after a wildfire damaged his roof, he opted to repair it exactly as officials recommended. But instead of being able to get the work done quickly, he was hit with unnecessary bureaucratic obstacles instead.

“Two inspections I needed to have—why?” Maher asked. “It’s my roof. If it falls on my head, that’s my problem.”

“That’s it? That’s just a statement,” Newsom replied.

“No, that’s my question,” Maher shot back. “Why do I need two inspections, which I have to pay for? Yeah, you were here last time we talked about regulations. You said, ‘Oh, it’s a completely new day.’ That’s a quote from you. ‘Completely new day.’”

Newsom shifted gears, referencing Ezra Klein’s book, Abundance, suggesting liberal governance was overly fixated on process rather than outcomes—essentially acknowledging that Maher’s roof saga was exactly the kind of bureaucracy Klein warned about. He vaguely promised to eliminate some of these hurdles.

Maher—seeing through Newsom’s political speak— wasn’t satisfied. “How’s that going, though?” he asked.

Shortly after this exchange, Newsom’s rebranding as a moderate fell apart when Bill Maher called out California’s rule that kept parents in the dark if their child changed their gender identity.

“So what do you say to people who say… ‘Governor, you were the poster boy for a lot of this [woke] stuff?’” Maher asked.

“I see today the Trump administration talked about the fact that California had a rule that schools cannot be required to notify parents if their kids in school have changed their gender, their pronouns. That’s the kind of thing—even though it doesn’t affect a lot of people—that makes a lot of people go, ‘Well, you know what? That’s the party without common sense,’” Maher added.

Newsom tried to deflect, framing the issue as protecting students: “I just disagree with that. I mean, the law was you would be fired, a teacher would be fired if a teacher did not report or snitch on a kid talking about their gender identity. I just think that was wrong. I think teachers should teach. I don’t think they should be required to turn in kids.”

Maher quickly called out the political spin: “Turning in? We’re talking about their parents. How can you snitch?”

As the interview neared its end, Maher demanded Gavin Newsom give it to him straight about his future presidential ambitions, explicitly telling him to cut the bullsh*t and speak clearly.

But, in a moment that should surprise no one, Newsom responded with an intentionally vague answer.

“Given that we are in this dire situation, I feel like we don’t have time anymore for the old bullsht,” Maher challenged. “You know, the old, ‘Are you running for president?’ ‘Well, you know, there’s an exploratory committee, and I’m looking at it. I’m happy with my job as governor.’ I mean, your future is not in California. Your future is in Iowa. Let’s dispense with the bullsht. We need someone who’s gonna be the champion. Are you gonna do it or not?” Maher asked.

“Just come on, tell us. We don’t have time for the bullsh*t.”

“I can’t stand the bullsh*t as well. And I mean that,” Newsom empathized before ironically giving a vague, bullsh*t answer.

“So, look, this is not my purpose or passion. It’s not my meaning. It’s not everything. The cynicism that’s out there, that every move he [Newsom] is making is some move to some longer-term strategy or short-term strategy.”

Maher kept pressing, “But who could do it? Who could get it done? Who could win?”

Newsom refused to give a straight answer again, “I deeply respect that. I respect the question, but I don’t have any grand plans, as it respects that.”

Whether Newsom is running for president or not isn’t really relevant. He’s clearly on a rebranding tour, launching a new podcast, speaking to conservatives, and trying to draw as many eyeballs as possible.

This is a business move, not some act of goodwill. Remember, this is the same guy who insisted, “Not one person ever in my office has ever used the word Latinx.”

Yet, his own tweet from 2023 exposed him saying, “The GOP are busy banning the word ‘Latinx’ and AP Black history courses rather than the weapons of war that are killing our kids.”

Whether it’s repairing a roof or addressing gender identity issues in schools, Newsom’s vague, no-substance responses always leave voters spinning in circles. Until he fixes that and starts speaking plainly, he’ll never be president.

Will Gavin Newsom run for president in 2028?

NEW: 66 Million Americans Are on Psychiatric Drugs — and We're Still in a “Mental Health Crisis”

“According to the CDC in 2022... 66 million Americans [are on these drugs]... 6 million are children.

@LauraDelano didn’t just survive psychiatry — she escaped it. And now she’s sounding the alarm:

• 66 million medicated
• 6 million are kids
• 1 suicide every 11 minutes

The system’s answer? More drugs. More labels. More diagnoses for life.

“We’re told this is a mental health crisis... but no—if you look at the numbers, more than ever before is getting mental health treatment. So the problem isn’t not enough mental health treatment. The problem, perhaps, is the mental health treatment.”

No long-term studies. No objective tests. And more suffering than ever.

“It’s not a mental health crisis. It’s a crisis of psychiatric iatrogenesis—treatment-induced harm.”

They call it help.
But it’s harming millions.

EXCLUSIVE: You’ve Been Lied to About the "Deep State"

The real coup already happened...
You just weren’t supposed to notice.

Patrick Wood reveals what the technocrats never wanted you to see.

🧵 THREAD

Technocracy is rising and it's a trend that is accelerating at a rapid pace worldwide.

Our guest today is Patrick Wood.

He's a leading and critical expert on sustainable development, the green economy, Agenda 21, the 2030 Agenda and historic technocracy. He's written multiple books on the subjects and publishes his research on Technocracy News where he and those at the outlet are publishing daily all of the increasingly dystopian technologies being rolled out worldwide.

@stoptechnocracy joins us now.

Maria Zeee opened the conversation by pressing Patrick Wood on Palantir—and he didn’t hold back.

First, he issued a warning: if the public truly understood what’s been going on, they'd be "freaked out.”

Palantir, he explained, didn’t emerge from Silicon Valley brilliance. The AI surveillance giant was born in the shadows of the intelligence community.

“The CIA granted money to Palantir to start… They were the first customer… They were involved in the framing, the architecture, the software coding.”

This wasn’t a startup success story. It was state-sponsored surveillance tech, disguised as private innovation.

And it’s not just Palantir. When you connect the dots, “You see a very, very dark, dark picture.”

This drug reversed a condition that usually ends with a ventilator and a body bag.

Three patients were on the brink of death from total lung failure.

Then they were given intravenous DMSO—and something incredible happened.

Days later, they were breathing freely. One even had completely normal lungs within just a week.

You’ve probably never heard of DMSO—and that’s by design.

Once you see what it can do, you’ll understand why it had to be buried.

🧵 THREAD

The information in this thread comes from the work of medical researcher @MidwesternDoc.

For all the sources and eye-opening details, read the full 9,000+ word report below.

midwesterndoctor.com/p/how-dmso-pro…

DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) use exploded in the 1960s as a medical breakthrough.

There were thousands of studies.
There was massive public demand.
And there were miracle recoveries.

But the FDA dropped the hammer—and the pharmaceutical industry buried DMSO.

Why?

Because it worked.

It’s not every day an FBI Director sits down with Joe Rogan.

Kash Patel just did—and what he revealed about the Bureau’s inner workings left Rogan speechless.

Rogan pressed him on the Epstein files.

Then came the real shock: Patel dropped a bombshell about Fauci—and what the FBI just uncovered might finally bring him down for good.

🧵 THREAD

Kash Patel didn’t waste time.

Sitting down with Joe Rogan, he opened with a jaw-dropping stat—one few Americans have ever heard.

During Trump’s first term, Patel ran counterterrorism operations for the White House and National Security Council.

In that role, he oversaw one of the most overlooked achievements of the administration.

“Hostages, we can talk about that forever too,” he began.

“Counterterrorism was a big portfolio, I ran it for the White House and National Security Council in the first Trump administration.”

Then came the number:

“We brought home—people don’t know this—President Trump in his first term, brought home and rescued over 50 hostages and detainees from around the world.”

He added, “That’s more than every president before him combined.”

Rogan, clearly taken aback, responded with a simple “Wow.”

Patel pointed out that few people even know these missions happened. Most weren’t headline news.

The stories of families reunited after high-risk rescues in Africa and the Middle East barely registered in the press.

“Did you hear about the successes of reuniting families with lost loved ones from Africa or the Middle East?” he asked.

He then described how Trump personally greenlit fearless operations, sending in elite forces to carry out rescues in hostile territories.

“These operations, that the president was courageous enough to green light to go into places like Afghanistan and do these hostage rescue ops, and use Seal Team Six and Delta,” he said.

From there, the conversation turned to an entirely different kind of crisis—one claiming tens of thousands of lives on American soil, fentanyl.

Patel didn’t hesitate to name the culprit: the Chinese Communist Party.

“So where’s the root of the problem? The CCP.”

This part is dark.

He explained how China plays a critical role in the fentanyl trade—not by making the drug itself, but by supplying the key chemical ingredients used to produce it.

“The fentanyl precursors, the stuff you need to make fentanyl comes from mainland China. That’s it.”

According to Patel, China has hundreds of companies manufacturing and exporting these chemicals around the world.

Most of them end up in Mexico, where cartels process the final product and smuggle it into the U.S.

“They’re like ‘we don’t make fentanyl.’ They’re right, they don’t. They just give you all the ingredients for it and ship it to Mexico.”

He added that the CCP even tried to clean up its image by announcing a ban on one specific precursor. But it was a bait-and-switch.

“To trick the world, they came out and said: ‘Hey, we’re going to not sell precursor X.’ The problem is, there’s 14 other precursors you can use to make fentanyl and they’re still shipping all of those.”

So while overdose deaths skyrocket, China keeps its hands clean—on paper.

Joe Rogan just watched the Trump–Musk feud explode, and his face said it all.

Kash Patel looked like he wanted out of the room.

But Epstein’s former attorney broke his silence on the matter.

And revealed what Epstein told him about Trump, just days before he died.

🧵 THREAD

In case you missed it, the feud between Donald Trump and Elon Musk exploded yesterday—and it all traces back to Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill.

Trump took to Truth Social and wrote yesterday:

“Elon was ‘wearing thin,’ I asked him to leave, I took away his EV Mandate that forced everyone to buy Electric Cars that nobody else wanted (that he knew for months I was going to do!), and he just went CRAZY!”

He followed with another post:

“The easiest way to save money in our Budget, Billions and Billions of Dollars, is to terminate Elon’s Governmental Subsidies and Contracts. I was always surprised that Biden didn’t do it!”

The Left has fully embraced racism—and it’s starting to backfire.

Victor Davis Hanson just laid out three real-world examples that expose how “reverse racism” isn’t just a theory—it’s their strategy.

But his warning to Democrats hit like a thunderclap.

He says the consequences will be brutal—and minority voters will be the ones leading the revolt.

🧵 THREAD

Victor Davis Hanson didn’t dance around it.

He opened by acknowledging that the topic he was about to raise was sensitive—but necessary.

“I'd like to talk about a more sensitive topic today,” he said.

“And that's this new appearance—or this growing, I would call it—reverse racism, or a racism that exists among some left-wing, elite Black leaders, politicians, celebrities.”

He made it clear this wasn’t a general accusation.

It was about a troubling pattern he’s seen at the highest levels of politics, media, and culture.

And he came prepared with receipts.

The first involved Susan Rice, former National Security Advisor under Obama, who was later appointed to the Defense Policy Board by President Biden.

When Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth removed her, Hanson said it was nothing out of the ordinary.

“That’s a group of grandees that advised the Defense Department,” he explained.

“They’re political appointments. And traditionally, when a new president comes in, they get rid of most of the prior Defense Policy Board because they feel they're partisans.”

In Rice’s case, she was one of the final additions under Biden.

Her dismissal, Hanson argued, followed the same pattern as every other administration. But Rice didn’t frame it that way.

“She fired back at him and said he was dumb as a rock, an ultra-MAGA figure,” he noted.

“But what was interesting was, she said, ‘White male, cisgender.’”

Instead of debating policy or qualifications, the response became personal—and racial.

“In other words, she attacked his race,” Hanson said.

“She said her administration would have fired him, for this Signal—scandal.”

But for Hanson, the irony was hard to ignore.

Rice herself had been at the center of one of the most controversial moments of the Obama years.

“She was the one that came out on Sunday talk shows and lied five times about the disaster in Benghazi, among other things,” he reminded.

“So why inject race into it?”
