Here's another piece of low-hanging fruit. This encapsulates EVERYTHING that's wrong with Gavin Newsom's California. But who's telling the story?
In case you don't know, California Highway 1 near Big Sur was closed by a landslide in 2023. Due to safetyism, environmental groups, and government incompetence/corruption the road remains closed and the possible opening dates keep shifting. There's really no plan to fix/open the road and the tourist oriented economy along the coast is dying.
The road was built in the early 1920s. Over the years there have been MANY landslides. The road was always fixed and reopened.
But somehow, 100 years later in Gavin Newsom's California, this is impossible. It's as if we've lost the ability to repair roads.
Just like it's impossible to rebuild Paradise or rebuild Pacific Palisades after wild fires. Just like it's impossible to fix the homeless problem. Just like it's impossible to build high speed rail. Just like it's impossible to do ANYTHING of value in California.
Again, this story encapsulates EVERYTHING that's wrong with Gavin Newsom and the Democratic Party.
And nobody is telling this story.
A talented filmmaker could make a nice documentary short for around $50-$100k. It seems like a decent investment, but nobody in big media wants to greenlight projects that make Gavin look bad.
But the people who do have an interest in making Gavin look bad won't put their money where their mouth is.
Because they have no vision.
And they won't fund the people who do.

If Donald Trump was even tangentially responsible for the highway closure--or the fires--or the homeless--or anything else, the Obamas would be throwing MILLIONS at it. Because they UNDERSTAND things about media and power that conservatives don't.
It’s not about the Dems/Libs have a monopoly on media. Media can be bought. Creators can be bought. And nobody is stopping the RW from buying it.
What the Libs have is a monopoly on VISION. Because the RW can’t can’t see it. They can’t even comprehend the opportunities.
