I don’t care for Newsome and I would not vote for him a second time. But I think a lot Californians ( I THINK) feel like I do. Meaning that if you don’t like the Governor, there will be another general election soon enough and we will deal with it then. Fuck this recall nonsense. And I’m sure Larry being involved pretty much sealed it. Asshole that he is. ---

Loony-tunes asshole to boot. He thinks slave owners should get reparations. Fuck that shit. They seceded, started a war, WERE SLAVEHOLDERS - no reparations. They’re lucky they had descendants at all. ---

He’s been on the list for a long time — he’s been a conservative loudmouth radio host for decades, but when he was just ranting on the radio he didn’t really matter. Now that Elder is a contender in the California governor’s race, it matters a lot. ---

This sounds like it’s from one of the Onion “News in Brief” headline-only segments. Unfortunately cut off in the link preview.

I doubt he was served in a criminal matter. More likely this is a civil case, and I don’t think a pardon would cover that even if it were available to him. But @F.U.Shakespeare is right: It will cost a lot to defend against. Awww. ---
