<v Speaker 1>Rush that's one eight hundred flowers dot com and the

0:00:28.840 --> 0:00:31.240
<v Speaker 1>code is rushed. Now you want to hear something, It

0:00:31.280 --> 0:00:33.720
<v Speaker 1>takes the cake. This is it. When he was California's

0:00:33.720 --> 0:00:37.280
<v Speaker 1>Lieutenant Governor, Gavin Knewsom fully supported the two thousand and

0:00:37.320 --> 0:00:41.200
<v Speaker 1>seventeen state law that increased gasoline taxes. Last year, running

0:00:41.200 --> 0:00:45.599
<v Speaker 1>for governor, Newsom opposed about the initiative to repeal those

0:00:45.800 --> 0:00:49.000
<v Speaker 1>massive gas taxes, and they elected him anyway. But now

0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:52.800
<v Speaker 1>that he's governor, Newsom has questions. He's asking the State

0:00:52.960 --> 0:00:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Energy Commission to investigate why California has the highest gasoline

0:00:57.280 --> 0:01:00.440
<v Speaker 1>taxes in America. Now, the average price for a gallon

0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:03.120
<v Speaker 1>of gas in the US two dollars eighty nine cents

0:01:03.600 --> 0:01:09.680
<v Speaker 1>in California, it's over four smackers. Newsom blames everybody but Democrats.

0:01:09.760 --> 0:01:12.440
<v Speaker 1>He did not ask the Energy Commission to investigate the

0:01:12.520 --> 0:01:16.920
<v Speaker 1>high Democrat gas increases. He didn't ask the Commission to

0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:20.200
<v Speaker 1>look into the cost of Democrat wacko is m including

0:01:20.200 --> 0:01:23.640
<v Speaker 1>California's cap and trade scheme, which directly affects the price

0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:26.920
<v Speaker 1>of gas, and, like the typical liberally as Newsome is,

0:01:26.959 --> 0:01:30.319
<v Speaker 1>pointing his finger at the oil industry and big business,

0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:35.000
<v Speaker 1>painting them as the villains. In reality, any California driver

0:01:35.040 --> 0:01:38.600
<v Speaker 1>who complains about gas prices should be giving the finger

0:01:39.040 --> 0:01:42.200
<v Speaker 1>to Newsom and his fellow Democrats. They raised them and

0:01:42.240 --> 0:01:44.840
<v Speaker 1>now they're complaining about them, and they are the total

0:01:45.000 --> 0:01:51.919
<v Speaker 1>cause of them.
