As we reported earlier this week, Gov. Gavin Newsom was trolled by First Assistant District Attorney Bill Essayli after his press office announced that he'd signed 21 new bills, including bans on the use of flash grenades and shock gloves by ICE agents and other law enforcement officers. "Or what? You’re going to write us a ticket?" replied Essayli.
There doesn't seem to be any issue that Newsom won't tackle, no matter how trivial, if he thinks he can stick it to President Donald Trump or his administration. Earlier this week, Trump, who has a knack for triggering people by renaming things, said he was going to sign an executive order renaming artificial intelligence "super intelligence," after suggesting several other options.
Trump: Super intelligence or SI, and that's the official name in the United States. I'll be signing a very powerful executive order. I spoke to President Xi. He loves it. When you say artificial intelligence, it's artificial. This is extreme intelligence. It's superior… pic.twitter.com/UxKwjSj8Be

The post continues:
… intelligence. It's supreme also intelligence. But the word super is the best word of all and it's the simplest.
Aaron Rupar homunculus Acyn posted that clip on Tuesday. By Wednesday, Newsom was basking in the gratitude of all of the nation by signing an executive order that would have the State of California permanently term artificial intelligence "artificial intelligence," or AI.
I just signed an executive order permanently declaring Artificial Intelligence “Artificial Intelligence” in California.

If Trump had declared that it be called “artificial,” you would be trying to rename it right now. You live your life around what he does. It’s pretty pathetic.

Imagine being so triggered by Trump and Elon Musk that you refuse to call it superintelligence. This is as effeminate as it gets.

Does anyone else find this behavior childish? Does Newsom ever go a day without fixating on President Trump? TDS is a real thing

Last time I visited California I watched a drugged up homeless man shit in the street before he tried to press customers at a coffee shop.

But I’m glad you got the AI titling sorted.
You did it.

You saved California.
Well done, you absolute moron. Holy cow!
You know for all the signings you do, the state looks like shit and nothing ever gets done. Why is that?

Brought to you by the same governor who changed the man of manholes to people holes.

He even posted the executive order to prove it was real.
Groundbreaking. Truly the work of a statesman... Thanks for nothing, jackass.

I can’t think of any other reason for this besides going against the POTUS.

Why?
It's a wonder tech startups and billionaires are moving out of California.
Do you ever do anything but issue unenforceable executive orders and grandstand on X?

Everyone who thinks Trump is an idiot with “super intelligence” now thinks you’re an idiot too.

No need to thank him, America — he already said, "You're welcome."
