It's a new day. California is now gerrymandered for the Democratic Party, and New York City is a socialist caliphate. All is right in the world.
We're discussing how movie star/former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger created California's nonpartisan redistricting commission, how his legacy is going up in flames, and why he appears to be choosing Pope-hangs and beers in Berlin as opposed to protecting one of the few things he held dear from his time in Sacramento.
We also discuss how current governor Gavin Newsom is going to pivot from his Prop 50 win to use the 100,000+ email list he assembled during the campaign to try and land in the White House in 2028. Can he do it? Unfortunately, it's looking good for the Golden State's Patrick Bateman.
