Governor Newsom Celebrates 250 Years of American Independence

California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) delivered remarks commemorating America's 250th birthday. He argued that the Founding Fathers' ideas are under threat from President Trump. "What separates a democracy from a monarchy, from a dictatorship is the fundamental right to vote," said Gov. Newsom as he called for a "Declaration of Election Independence." He continued to criticize the Trump administration and the Supreme Court. "Let's keep our democracy. Let's prove one more time that this is a government of the people. Happy Independence Day. Now let's go defend it," said Gov.
