The California governor, however, closed his statement with a frightening vow.
“Following the Task Force’s submission of its final report this summer, I look forward to a continued partnership with the Legislature to advance systemic changes that ensure an inclusive and equitable future for all Californians.”
Here’s why this should chill Californians to the core: The term systemic change is liberal code for dismantling the current economic and political system in America. Radical left individuals have used this phrase to advocate abolishing capitalism, defunding the police, advancing critical race theory in the classroom, and much more.
Cities and states that have adopted these proposals have seen crime and poverty skyrocket across the board. Racial tensions have also worsened.
Newsom and the California legislature may not adopt the racist task force’s recommendation, but the consequences for folks living in California will be awful.
James Gallagher, the California Assembly Republican Leader, noted Newsom “has painted himself in a corner.”
This has been a fool’s errand from the start.
Democrats have promised the world with this reparations task force, and now the massive taxpayer bill is coming due. Newsom has painted himself into a corner, and he’ll have to choose between signing off on a ridiculous policy that will bankrupt the state or admitting once and for all that this task force was nothing more than a political stunt.
