'Do The Right Thing': Gavin Newsom Blasts Mike Johnson's 'Partisan Games' Amid Wildfires [View all]

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) on Thursday knocked House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) for politicizing a crisis after he entertained putting conditions on disaster relief aid as the deadly Los Angeleswildfires continue to burn.

Newsom — in a response to an X post from Johnson — argued that Californians, including those impacted by the fires, “foot the bill to help” the House speaker’s constituents in Louisiana when that state’s residents need it after hurricanes.




“And they do it without playing partisan games,” he added.

“Millions of your supporters are out here and they need your help, empathy, care and whatever compassion you are willing to express. Do the right thing.”
