California Governor Gavin Newsom faced intense internet blowback from MAGA loyalists after calling President Donald Trump "desperate" in a viral post on X.

As both men continue trading increasingly personal attacks, their bitter political rivalry shows no signs of cooling down.

Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) on Thursday unveiled a revised California budget proposal that he said keeps the state balanced for the next two fiscal years, pushing back on critics who have accused him of overspending and setting up his successor to hold the bag.

The California governor said a new law to block officials from commandeering voter records and voting equipment was necessary to thwart Trump’s efforts to “rig the election.”

With just days left to vote in the primary, Gov. Gavin Newsom signed legislation that aims to shield California elections from federal interference.
