Gavin Newsom's new podcast is a shiny propaganda project designed to rebrand him as a "Common Sense Democrat” for 2028 — but there’s one small problem:
His own radical record.
Dismantling Newsom’s “Moderate” Rebrand:
🧵THREAD🧵
2⃣REBRAND LAUNCH
The propaganda project designed to position Newsom for a presidential run in 2028 kicked off with him dipping his toe in the water of common sense — by attempting to get on the 80 side of an 80/20 issue: Men playing in women’s sports.
Legacy media predictably heralded this move as a “Remarkable Shift” — not an opportunistic flip-flop, which is exactly what it is.
A 2014 tweet from Newsom celebrated a law that required schools to allow boys to compete in girls’ sports in California.
Newsom hasn’t suddenly seen the light — he’s simply seen the polling.
3⃣NEWSOM’S CORE BELIEFS: ENTIRELY FLEXIBLE
Newsom’s far-left roots don’t stop him from bending to any political stance or ideological twist needed to grab—and hold—power. As he puts it:
🧵Observing the Trump 47 media strategy: Transforming communication with the American people.
It’s a different ballgame this time around.
THREAD:
1⃣ THE WH BRIEFING ROOM: Press Sec Karoline Leavitt announces that Americans’ trust in legacy media is at an all time low, welcomes new media access into the WH briefing room, promises to address questions from outlets across the ideological spectrum.
Massive shakeup that signals to Americans from the press room podium how legacy media has been thoroughly discredited — while simultaneously promising balanced coverage and maximum transparency.
2⃣ DoD PRESS ACCESS: SecDef Pete Hegseth oversees long overdue changes to press access at the Pentagon:
NBC, NYT, NPR, and Politico will “rotate out of the building” to give space to New York Post, Breitbart, OAN, and HuffPost.
The move is intended to “broaden access” — a diplomatic way of saying that legacy media propaganda is being demoted to the minor leagues, while providing a broader range of reporting perspectives. HUGE shift.
🚨After actively engaging in a coverup of Biden’s cognitive state — the brave, intrepid journalists at NYT are out with a tell-all piece on the coverup — blaming Biden’s inner circle, and taking zero responsibility themselves.
Everything they lied about for years, they now admit is true — Biden’s “walkers” to hide his shuffle, the short stairs to AF1, his frequent falls, cognitive lapses, telepromper woes, needing naps for debate prep — everything.
Legacy media is attempting to rewrite history and play the hapless victim of a White House inner circle that managed to dupe them for four years, in a vain attempt to salvage their tattered reputations and cratered credibility.
This is the latest installment of that strategy.
This strategy was previewed by this CBS reporter in late December. At the time, I noted:
"Expect much more of this moving forward, as the Propaganda Press tries in vain to salvage their destroyed credibility."
Donald Trump has pulled off the biggest political comeback in American history.
That years-long journey was unlike anything the country has ever seen.
Here are 15 PIVOTAL MOMENTS that help propel Trump to a landslide victory.
THREAD 🧵
1⃣ @elonmusk purchases Twitter.
It’s nearly impossible to state the earth-shattering ramifications that resulted from one man’s drive to preserve and defend free speech.
Without this, the information environment for the 2024 election is vastly different, as the Twitter 1.0 censorship regime would have remained firmly in place — ready to rerun Hunter Laptop-type election interference.
Simply put: It changed the course of history.
2⃣ Trump’s mugshot released.
To millions, the iconic photo became a symbolic representation of the entirety of corrupt, coordinated, politicized lawfare levied against Donald Trump.
That Fulton County case — along with the charges brought by the DOJ — have since disintegrated.
Please enjoy Rachel Maddow solemnly warning the country about the dire ramifications of this moment in American history.
