(Headline article at bottom) This guy, Gavin Newscum, would do well to read the following scriptures before it’s too late, if not already.
Proverbs 6:16–19
[16] There are six things that the LORD hates, seven that are an abomination to him: [17] haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, [18] a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, [19] a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers. (ESV)
And God would probably add one more for when Newscum used God’s words in a billboard message recommending California as an abortion destination. And you’d have to say that Newscum has a clean sweep on the things God hates which are an abomination. but the scarier part is the warning about using His statutes with the threat of being torn apart.
Psalm 50:16–22
[16] But to the wicked God says: “What right have you to recite my statutes or take my covenant on your lips? [17] For you hate discipline, and you cast my words behind you. [18] If you see a thief, you are pleased with him, and you keep company with adulterers. [19] “You give your mouth free rein for evil, and your tongue frames deceit. [20] You sit and speak against your brother; you slander your own mother’s son. [21] These things you have done, and I have been silent; you thought that I was one like yourself. But now I rebuke you and lay the charge before you. [22] “Mark this, then, you who forget God, lest I tear you apart, and there be none to deliver! (ESV)
“Nothing I dislike more than the politician that sits there and lies to you, and we all just sit there rolling our eyes going, give me a break.”
By Roberto Wakerell-Cruz, Montreal QC
California Governor Gavin Newsom says he’s not planning a presidential run—at least not yet.
Speaking on Meet the Press, Newsom pushed back when asked directly why he wants to be president. “I don’t,” he said flatly, before clarifying that speculation about a campaign didn’t come from him. “Nothing I dislike more than the politician that sits there and lies to you, and we all just sit there rolling our eyes going, give me a break,” he added.
The Democratic governor said his current focus is on “Prop 50,” as well as “fair and free elections,” insisting that any decision about higher office would depend on timing and circumstance. “To the extent fate, the future, there’s an alignment — you have a big enough why, you have a what and a how, you meet a moment, and that moment presents itself in a year, year and a half, we’ll see what happens,” he said.
Earlier this year, Newsom acknowledged he’d “be lying otherwise” if he said he wasn’t considering a possible 2028 run once his term as governor ends. During Sunday’s sit-down, he again hinted that ambition isn’t out of the question but emphasized that voters will ultimately shape the country’s next chapter.
“I love people,” Newsom said when asked about his time campaigning in South Carolina. “Thank God, I’m in the right business.”
When asked about the future of the Democratic Party and his own role in it, Newsom was pressed on his support for then-President Biden following his rocky debate earlier this year.
Despite widespread concern within the party, Newsom said he never doubted Biden’s ability to serve. “I never had that,” he told Meet the Press, adding that he’d spoken with Biden just hours before the interview. The governor said he spent nearly two hours with the former president in the Oval Office last December and came away confident. “My experience, his expression, gave me no pause, no doubt.”
