From Fox News: California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass have lambasted President Trump for the financial cost of sending troops to quell anti-ICE riots in their jurisdiction, which came with a price tag dramatically less than the bill taxpayers foot to pay for illegal immigrants in the state.
“Just an absolutely shameful use of taxpayer dollars that could be used to actually HELP people,” Bass recently posted on X. “Despicable.”
“$134 million that should be going to LA’s fire recovery,” Newsom posted on X. “Shameful.”
Well, both Bass and Newsom just opened up a can of worms! They’re getting absolutely blasted on social media.
“How many billions have you money laundered in the name of “helping the homeless”? attorney Rogan O’Handley demanded.

“What about the tax payer dollars that will go to fixing all the damage from the riots? Do you think the dents in the police cars from the rocks thrown will be fixed for free?” one person retorted.
“The spray paint clean up is going to cost more than that 🤦🏻♀️,” another said.
“California spends $25billion + annually on illegal foreigners that you have aided and abetted,” another X user wrote.

Likewise, they ripped Gov. Newsom to shreds over his complaint.
The fires where you didn’t have water in the fire hydrants?

Robby Starbuck fired back, “How many billions have you spent on illegals Gavin? It’s well into the hundreds of billions. THAT money should have gone to your citizens and fire recovery but you gave it to illegals.”

“Gov. Newsom took out a $3.4B loan in March because California couldn’t afford the “free” medical care Democrats give to illegal aliens in the state. This dude is nothing but bad theater,” BDW wrote.

Maybe the fires wouldn’t have been so bad in LA if you had actually put….oh I don’t know, water in the fucking hydrants?

Gavin Newsom is wasting over $8 billion on free health care for illegals this year.
Shameful.

California was given BILLIONS of taxdollars to help prepare and mitigate forest fires. The result? No brush cleared, hydrants running out of water and entire cities burnt to the ground. pic.twitter.com/9giRKKP490
