Description

Democrats in California routinely campaign on the promise of delivering single payer healthcare, but then once they get into office, those promises evaporate faster than Gavin Newsom’s mask at an NFL playoff game. This past week Democrats, who have a supermajority in the state assembly, and can pass whatever bill they want, pulled the state single payer bill without even getting a vote, proving that they’re in the pocket of the powerful healthcare lobbies, and not interested in delivering on their promises and helping the suffering people of California. Jimmy and comedian Kurt Metzger discuss this latest, predictable disappointment from California’s Democratic lawmakers.

I see why the young vote is so important, they have not heard the same broken promises every 2 years

It’s foolish to think you have power in a supermajority state. If you don’t change who you vote for they won’t change what they do either. Lib voters in California must be masochistic.

I used to work in court when Ash Kalra was a public defender. He didn't appear to care about the defendants he represented. He'd push their cases through, spending almost no time listening to their stories. I remember thinking as he ran for a seat on the city council in San Jose that his palpable lack of interest in his clients was not indicative of a politician who cared about people. I felt sorry for the inmates he represented. He was more interested in his political ambitions than he was about performing his job. So being a stooge for fake Democrats does not surprise me AT ALL.

Newsflash: They ran on M4A because they knew there was a huge payday coming from the insurance lobby by threatening to do it! Demagoguery 101!
