If you go, please record it if you have the ability.
"As the reality of a second Trump administration takes hold," said Bonta.
"I know there is a lot of fear and anxiety, frustration and sadness. I'm here today to reassure you that in California, progress will prevail, no matter who is in the White House."
With President-elect Donald Trump's promises of mass deportations and reports of his plans to end diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in government institutions using federal funding as leverage Newsom called a special session of the California Legislature.
In the special session announcement, the Governor said they would bolster California legal resources to protect civil rights and immigrant families, among other topics.
Valley Assemblywoman Esmeralda Soria said immigration is a top concern she is eager to discuss in the special session.
"I think that there's an opportunity to work with folks in our region to stand up and make sure that people understand that in our region we rely on a heavily immigrant community, especially to pick our crops in the valley," said Asm. Esmeralda Soria, Fresno.
However, not all state leaders are on board with the plan.
In a statement, Fresno Assemblyman Jim Patterson said "Where is the special session for crime, homelessness or the cost of living? This special session is all about playing political games so the governor can boost his national profile. Special sessions should be used for emergencies, not to pick political fights with an incoming president."
State GOP Chairwoman Jessica Millan Patterson also released a statement reading in part, "Out-of-touch California Democrats continue to prove their commitment to moving California away from the mainstream and down a destructive path."
The special session will convene on December 2nd.
Anyone who is family of Nanci Pelosi’s and in politics in California like Gavin… just may need to be kept on a short leash…

Only 3 Days Left Until Nuremberg Hearing - Support Still Needed!
We have a Nuremberg Hearing scheduled Monday and are LATE on the full Attorney’s fees! Anyone want to help the mission of trying to stop WHO’s global vax? We need you now more than ever - the timing is finally right to expose & stop the vax!
One would be inclined to think this Newson fellow truly hates America! He shrieks of narcissism gone completely out of control!! He’s dragged California down to third world levels, created cities full of drug addicted street people, caused many lifelong citizens to flee to other States.
What kind of people support this demented need to challenge the presidency of Donald Trump? Intelligent, grounded Americans know their only hope to turn the country around to its former world status lies with President Trump.
I am a Canadian who currently lives in a once great free country that’s being torn apart by the most corrupt Trudeau led government in Canadian history. We are placing every last hope of a redemption on electing a Conservative Prime Minister, Pierre Poilievre, on or before the deadline date of October, 2025.
I can tell you, Canadians were beside themselves with Trump’s victory! Our vile government dictator and his bunch in Ottawa are spewing out sickening ideas as they no longer have the Biden-Harris cabal to support their totalitarian thinking!!
Canadians are quite enjoying their pain!!
So I say to our neighbours south - don’t screw up your last chance to bring hope and positivity to your country. Eliminate all the “Newsons”.
