The recent death of former Sen. Dianne Feinstein left Gov. Gavin Newsom in a predicament. Would he keep his promise to fill the seat with a black woman even though two white people (Adam Schiff and Katie Porter) are leading the 2024 race for the seat? As RedState reported, the answer is yes.

Newsom appointed Laphonza Butler, whose only qualifications appear to be working on Kamala Harris' failed 2020 presidential campaign while being a "black lesbian." Naturally, the California governor is touting the latter.

I'm just really glad we select the most powerful people in the country based on race and who they sleep with. I mean, what could possibly go wrong with such an approach? What does merit have to do with governing competently anyway?

Let's ask Newsom, who apparently appointed a Maryland resident to the seat, birthing an immediate scandal.

I'm puzzled why they bother trying to cover it up. No body gives a shit about potato brains and his equally idiotic son. Hillary got a full pass... I mean, why does the coverup machine go into high gear? The press simply won't report it, therefore, it doesn't exist.

I think, in this case, the scandal would legally disqualify her from holding the office. She can can't serve as Senator from California if she's not a full time resident. The black lesbian thing isn't the scandal they're hiding. Hell... it's the sole reason she was picked.

EDIT: Typo.

The scandal is she doesn't reside in California.

Correct. I meant to say "can't" in my response. Will edit.

I only hope that this creates an opportunity for Newsom to publicly fail and lead to another victory for us.

Reminds me of that trailer-trash whore from Arkansas who just up and decided to be a New York senator ... and they voted for her (allegedly).

That whore you're referring to was born in Illinois, and adopted the Arkansas trailer park trash lifestyle when shoe she moved there after college.

Your comment about the electoral integrity of her Senate run is spot on though.

Edit: Spelling

That fake accent she put on at the time was so cringey. Elmhurt or Oak Park or somewhere I can't remember, but definitely from the burbs. What a slimy chameleon.

Hell yeah. She changed the ethnicity of her speech depending on the audience.
I looked her up. She was from Park Ridge, outside of Chicago.
