Republican strategist Scott Jennings tore into Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom of California Tuesday night on CNN, saying Newsom’s speech was an effort to launch a presidential campaign.
Newsom delivered an eight-minute diatribe, claiming President Donald Trump “commandeered” National Guard personnel and “chose escalation” hours after Democratic Mayor Karen Bass of Los Angeles declared a curfew for parts of the city following five days of rioting when United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents carried out an operation at a Los Angeles-area Home Depot. Jennings, who appeared via video link while in Israel, told CNN host Kaitlan Collins, a former Daily Caller White House correspondent, that Newsom appeared willing to “coddle” illegal immigrants.
“It’s amazing to me. First of all, this guy is the governor of a state, and it has got one of its most important cities burning on his watch, and he’s out here launching a presidential campaign,” Jennings told Collins. “There’s no other way to listen to what happened and not conclude that he just launched his presidential campaign on top of this lawlessness that’s going on in California. He governs a failed state. He sits atop of a failed state, and he sits, I guess, at the leadership right now of a political party that’s wanting to coddle the illegal invasion of our country, that’s causing what’s happening.”
“It’s not particularly controversial for Donald Trump to enforce federal law, our immigration laws, and, yet, to Democrats and Gavin Newsom, it’s an affront to them for the president of the United States to enforce federal law,” Jennings said. “He went down a litany of things that have nothing to do with what’s happening in California. All that’s happening in California is that a bunch of foreign nationals have occupied large swaths of the United States. One city is burning, and the president of the United States is trying to bring order. That’s all that’s happening.”

Los Angeles Police Department Chief Jim McDowell told reporters that almost 200 people were arrested Monday during the press conference where Bass declared the curfew over part of downtown Los Angeles.
Jennings, who is traveling in Israel and had said in a Monday post on X he wouldn’t be on TV, doubted that Newsom would gain traction from the speech.
“We get this litany of complaints from Gavin Newsom about everything, about how much the Democrats in California have failed,” Jennings said. “I don’t think it’s going to resonate with the American people. I think it’s going to look opportunistic, and people are going to wonder why in the world is the governor of California complaining about Harvard when one of his cities is on fire?”

Rioters vandalized at least five self-driving vehicles, setting two of them on fire, ABC7.com reported. Video posted to social media Saturday showed an individual, whom the FBI identified as Elpidio Reyna, in a Monday night post on X, throwing rocks at the windshields of vehicles containing ICE agents.
The FBI is offering a $50,000 reward for information leading to Reyna’s arrest on charges of assault on a federal officer.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
