Speaker 1: Now you want to hear something that takes the cake,
Speaker 1: this is it. When he was California's Lieutenant governor, Gavin
Speaker 1: Knewsom fully supported the two thousand and seventeen state law
Speaker 1: that increased gasoline taxes. Last year, running for governor, Newsom
Speaker 1: opposed about the initiative to repeal those massive gas taxes,
Speaker 1: and they elected him anyway. But now that he's governor,
Speaker 1: Newsom has questions. He's asking the State of Energy Commission
Speaker 1: to investigate why California has the highest gasoline taxes in America. Now,
Speaker 1: the average price for a gallon of gas in the
Speaker 1: US two dollars eighty nine cents. In California, it's over
Speaker 1: four smackers. Newsom blames everybody but Democrats. He did not
Speaker 1: ask the Energy Commission to investigate the high Democrat gas increases.
Speaker 1: He didn't ask the commission to look into the cost
Speaker 1: of Democrat wacko ism, including California's cap and trade scheme,
Speaker 1: which directly affects the price of gas. And like the
Speaker 1: typical liberally as Newsome is pointing his finger at the
Speaker 1: oil industry and big Big is painting them as the villains.
Speaker 1: In reality, any California driver who complains about gas prices
Speaker 1: should be giving the finger to Newsom and his fellow Democrats.
Speaker 1: They raised them and now they're complaining about them, and
Speaker 1: they are the total cause of them.
