Did Gavin Newsom Get Suckered By Trump?

A short bonus interview for paid subscribers

This morning I went on the radio show hosted by legendary broadcaster Howard Monroe to talk about the LA immigration protests, the Trump-Musk feud, and…tea?

Yep, we did get a little sidetracked onto the topic of National Iced Tea Day (yes that’s a thing apparently—people have too much time on their hands…or Lipton has too much tea on their shelves) but then quickly pivoted to a dive into the question of whether California Governor Gavin Newsom got played by Trump over the last week, or maybe was playing an inside political game of his own.

We did cover some of this in my livestream today, which will be available on video podcast later, but my interview with Howard also got into a lot of other interesting ground and I wanted to share it as a bonus for paid subscribers.
