California Gov. Gavin Newsom called for a nationwide tax on billionaires as part of a broader “economic reset for America.”

Newsom, who is considered to be a 2028 presidential contender, also reiterated his opposition to a state-level wealth tax that Californians will vote on in November.

He also called for creating a “national public equity fund” to help “ensure every American owns a stake in the future being built by AI.”

    What an absolute fucking snake. He’s been opposing the billionaires tax in Cali and now he wants to say it should be national where there is no chance of passage?

    Fuck this guy.
