How do you know California's Governor Gavin Newsom is lying? Either his mouth is moving, or he's posting something on X.
This is the latter:
Violent and property crime rates dropped throughout California last year — thanks in part to the $1.1B we've invested since 2019 into safety and security.

We're grateful to @CHP_HQ and other local law enforcement agencies for their steadfast partnership in fighting crime. pic.twitter.com/ZjzUGxMpKd
No one believes Newsom.
Dropped where? Kentfield? https://t.co/eyYuTLd9TA

Criminals literally tunneled into downtown L.A. jewelers and stole millions.

Amazing what you can do when you don't report stats or have DAs that refuse to charge.

They are 100% fudging the numbers here.
This is like saying, we reduced traffic accidents by just not responding to them….

Or sayn
We have reduced speeding in the state of California by not writing speeding tickets anymore
It sure is.
Because that's what they're doing. When you ignore crimes, crime rates go down.
The reason they dropped is because nobody reports it. When my catalytic converter was stolen the local police said they don't report on those anymore. Then said I could go online to report it. We have home burglaries that are the same. Unless someone died, the cops don't come… https://t.co/1hDp9iP0p4

Just amazing. Criminals run California, literally and figuratively.
Your statistics don't match the Californians reality.

Look how kids have to walk in their neighborhood in LA, are you proud of it?

Nope. No crime whatsoever.
Tell that to Lowes, Walmart, Walgreen, Target AND hundreds of other similar retail businesses.

They're just greedy for not letting mobs of thieves steal their products.
Sorry, what have you invested in security? How much funding has gone to support Prop 36? We're making a prison hotel? How much am I paying in increased Property Insurance, Electricity, and Sales taxes now? Stop squeezing the taxpayers, we have little to nothing left to give.

They'll keep squeezing.
