Today is a rest day. @sam_gzstrength and @SS_strength had some thoughts that inspired me. Thank you @BeeTee2887 for the inspiration to edit up a video.

@MayorToddGloria @CityofSanDiego You are the biggest failure this city has ever had.

In this week’s update: ▪️Plans to reimagine Golden Hall and revitalize the Civic Center as housing and a new cultural hub ▪️Budget Q&A on parks, libraries, and rec centers ▪️87 new affordable homes opening in #CortezHill—and more! Read: app.indigov.com/pub/outreach/5…

@TomSteyer You won’t

If we win, corporations lose. It’s that simple. That’s why corporations are spending millions to stop us.

@GovPressOffice Yeah in Irvine. The ONLY city in California without a homeless drug addict problem because they use their tax dollars correctly.

IN CALIFORNIA YOU SAY?

@TomSteyer Communist

I've been fighting environmental injustice for over 15 years, and I'm just getting started.

@GavinNewsom @realDonaldTrump Great work, @GavinNewsom!

Great work, @realDonaldTrump!

@GovPressOffice Now do the Democratic “supermajority” in California!

2017-2020: Trump appoints 3 conservatives to SCOTUS, creating a conservative Republican supermajority 2024: Supreme Court supermajority gives Trump absolute legal immunity 2026: Supreme Court supermajority working to give Trump absolute political immunity There’s a reason so many Americans have lost faith in the Trump Court and now view it as a partisan political entity — they have eyes.

@GovPressOffice This you bro?

Every Republican should be denouncing this racist statement. Rep. Kiggans should resign. If not, Speaker Johnson should grow a spine and show her the door.

@GovPressOffice You should know. You’ve been asleep at the wheel for 8 years.

IS HE EVER NOT SLEEPING?

This is outrageous.. Not a single person on my flight is masked up while we’re in the middle of a double pandemic (Covid + Hantavirus). I politely informed the flight attendant that this is a super spreader event. She just shrugged and walked away. I've already filed a formal complaint with the FAA and CDC. This is reckless and cannot stand. Masks save lives, the science is settled on that.

@TomSteyer GREEN NEW SCAM

California needs leaders who fight polluters, not politicians funded by them.

No, Gavin Newsom’s press office isn’t outright lying, but their statement is narrowly framed, selective, and defensive in a way that dodges key criticisms. It’s classic political spin—technically accurate on some points while omitting context that makes the deal look worse. Here’s a breakdown based on available facts: Funding: $6.2M vs. $20M •The press office is correct: There’s a $6.2 million contract with Baby2Baby for the 2025-26 fiscal year to supply ~40 million diapers (for ~100,000 newborns getting 400 each in the initial rollout at participating hospitals). That’s ~15.5 cents per diaper on the contract.13 •However, the total program commitment is indeed around $20 million: $7.4M already budgeted + $12.5M proposed for the next fiscal year (through June 2027). Critics (including NY Post) aren’t fabricating the $20M figure—it’s the full scope being promoted by the administration.4 •This isn’t a flat-out lie, but calling the NY Post report “FALSE” for using the broader number is misleading. The program is scaling, and taxpayers are on the hook for the larger amount. Cost per Diaper (~15.5 cents) •Reasonable for bulk wholesale/manufacturing + distribution, especially if Baby2Baby leverages their setup (they claim diapers at ~80% below retail via manufacturing partnerships). Retail bulk (e.g., Costco/Walmart generics) can be 12-25 cents, premium brands higher. The state isn’t just handing out store packs—there’s procurement, warehousing, hospital distribution, and co-labeling involved.26 •Critics’ “50 cents” math assumes the full $20M for 40M diapers in year one only, which overstates the initial phase. It’s not “peak stupidity” on raw math, but questions about overhead, why route through a nonprofit instead of direct bulk state/CalRx purchasing, or cash equivalents for parents are fair. Baby2Baby has distributed hundreds of millions of diapers historically, so they have scale.16 Competitive Process and Baby2Baby Connection •The office claims a “rigorous COMPETITIVE procurement process.” Procurement records confirm the $6.2M award, but public details on other bids, scoring, or alternatives are thin. California state contracting often favors nonprofits for social programs, but skepticism is warranted.25 •The conflict tie is real: Baby2Baby co-CEO Norah Weinstein sits on the board of First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom’s California Partners Project (which helped facilitate the partnership). This isn’t hidden—it’s disclosed in coverage—but it fuels legitimate cronyism concerns in a state with Newsom’s history of connected deals. Baby2Baby is a legit, high-profile nonprofit (celebrity-backed, experienced), not a shell, but optics matter.32 Overall Program Context •It’s a real initiative (Golden State Start) starting summer 2026 at ~65-75 hospitals (priority for Medi-Cal/low-income), expanding later. Aims to help new parents with ~400 diapers per newborn.17 •California has budget issues; critics argue tax cuts or direct aid would be simpler/cheaper than another layered nonprofit program. Supporters call it pro-family support leveraging state power. Bottom line: The press office is splitting hairs to rebut the NY Post hit piece (which amplifies outrage). No evidence of fabricated numbers on their end, but they downplay the full cost, the wife’s network tie, and why this structure over simpler alternatives. It’s not a smoking-gun scandal, but it fits patterns of connected nonprofits getting big state contracts in CA. Reasonable people can see waste/risk without calling it “money laundering.” If full contract/bid docs were released transparently, it’d help.

@GovPressOffice Just political spin. Full text below.

THIS IS FALSE. MAGA and the NY Comic Book are once again spreading lies: FACT: It’s a $6.2 million contract (not $20 million) FACT: It covers 40 million diapers in year one — about 15.5 cents per diaper (not 50 cents as claimed). FACT: Baby2Baby was chosen through a rigorous COMPETITIVE procurement process. It is a national nonprofit, based in California, with strong experience in delivering diapers for families in need and in the last 15 years they have distributed over 300 million diapers to families in need across the country. This program is a game-changer for new moms, providing 400 FREE diapers for all newborns. Why is MAGA anti family? It’s sick!

@TomSteyer Say “billionaire” again dumbshit. Anybody voting for this clown 🤡 is NGMI.

Of course corporations and billionaires don't want me to close their tax loopholes. I don't care.

@Sandiegohumor 💯 percent

@TomSteyer We get it you’re a billionaire. Do you have more money and more resources than any of us ever will have you do not care about the working people and you do not care about California because you can leave and go anywhere you want.

Would you rather have a billionaire who fights for working people, or a politician who fights for billionaires?

Donald Trump and MAGA states are rigging our elections and silencing voters. This November, we WILL stop them. Everything is on the line.

@ToddGloria @California_HCD This is how the grift works. Affordable housing is a SCAM to steal your money.

San Diegans have twice voted to lift the height limit in the Midway District and @California_HCD confirms state housing law allows it. We’re moving forward to deliver affordable homes, local jobs, parks and a revitalized neighborhood for our city’s future. sandiegouniontribune.com/2026/05/06/sta…

@ToddGloria @California_HCD LET THE GRIFT BEGIN!!!

Canceling elections. Silencing free speech. Deploying private police against your own citizens. History has a term for Donald Trump's behavior.
