Gavin Newsom, governor of California approves slavery reperations agency. Thoughts?

[Cubus]

Gavin Newsom approved a new state agency to administer restitution for descendants of slaves The Democratic governor signed the legislation, SB 518, five years after forming a task force in the wake of George Floyd’s murder to study the legacy of slavery in California and how the state could implement reparations policies — and more than two years after the panel released its extensive recommendations.

“I signed a bill two days ago with the Black Caucus as it relates to creating a new office to address these systemic issues,” he said during an episode released Friday morning.

Last year, late amendments sought by Newsom, combined with caucus in-fighting, sank the effort to stand up a new reparations agency. The governor later vetoed a bill that would have provided redress for victims of racially-motivated eminent domain, noting the state lacked an agency to administer the program.

There has been one in the crazy state that I live in too. It is just politicians pandering for the black vote which they have been losing to MAGA.
I think that Newsom should tell black people in America that if they vote for him each one of them will get million dollars for being a member of an oppressed minority. He will be our next president.

As the late, great Malcolm X once said,"Even if reparations were given, N******* would give them to crooked "ministers" and be broke in six months!!!"

He is an idiot of the lowest order.

A state that never had slavery want people who never had slaves to pay reparations to people who were never slaves. That's Democrats for you.

I wish that greasy haired, primping, self-serving, hypocritical, WEF puppet would fall into a grape crusher at his winery.

He still gonna get 54 electoral votes from California if he runs for president.

Stupidity nothing more.

[seeyounexttuesday]

He can pay whatever he wants for reparations out of his own account.
