Gavin Newsom Now Vowing to Eradicate Homelessness in California for the 100th Time
Gavin Newsom has been vowing to end homelessness in California for years. It all began way back when he was the mayor of San Francisco. Now he is the governor of California and he is still doing it.
The only thing that has changed in California over the years is the number of homeless people, which just keeps going up.
And of course, the only reason he is doing this now is because he is planning to run for president in 2028, not because he actually cares about the people of California.
NEW: We’re announcing 5 new Homekey+ projects creating 267 permanent supportive homes statewide, including housing for veterans.
With $636M invested and 1,800+ homes already underway, we’re expanding treatment, accountability, and stability for those who need it most. https://t.co/Nu8jTlJzdk

The folks at RedState are skeptical:
You know, if California voters had a dollar for every time Gavin Newsom had pledged to eradicate homelessness in his state over the nearly three decades he’s been in elected office, they’d be rich instead of struggling to make ends meet due to the high cost of living and anti-capitalist environment in the Democrat-run Golden State…
The rampant homeless problems there have been well-documented here at RedState and elsewhere, with even prominent Democrat figures in California at various points acknowledging in so many words that the issue exists primarily in big cities run by other Democrats, like Los Angeles and San Francisco.
Predictably, Newsom has in recent months worked to give off the (false) impression that he is the “do something” governor, partly to beef up his purported 2028 bona fides and also to try to combat President Trump’s legitimate criticisms of things like the state’s soft-on-crime policies, which has played a big part in the exodus of residents over the last several years to red states like Texas and Florida.
But homelessness is where Newsom continues to demonstrate that talk is cheap, with the people ending up paying the steep price that the cost of failed leadership brings.
Newsom is like a broken record on this issue.

Don’t hold your breath. A year later and most of Malibu is still in rubble. https://t.co/eVZrCbDehb

If the rebuild after the fires is any indication, this new project should be done in about fifty years or so.
