Beth on Nostr: Republicans are attacking Newsom's appointment of Butler by going after her ...
Republicans are attacking Newsom's appointment of Butler by going after her residency, which is Maryland.
It is hard to say that they are using this to actually target her because of race, gender, and sexual orientation, which they are, because she clearly is registered to vote in Maryland.
And there are California Democrats and Republicans that have concerns that Newsom has stripped CA of the ability to choose its junior Senator. This is because Newsom's office has said there are no restrictions on his appointment running for the office in 2024.
A lot of talk on X-Twitter when 2024 is brought up. People are relying on Newsom's past comments about appointing a caretaker. That is not the case. He stepped back from that restriction.
Newsom and Butler should - in my unprofessional opinion - be transparent about 2024. Will she run or not?
Shut down speculation about 2024 and the Maryland issue is diminished considerably.
