How Governments Cheat | Exposing the Nastiness of California.
FULL TRANSCRIPT
hey everyone meet kevin here so you all
know that california is broken and nuts
well in this video i'm going to show you
how california at least from what i'm
discovering so far
we've just started our race for governor
our campaign for governor of california
in the 2021 recall election
i'm going to show you how corrupt the
system is already starting to look
so here's the thing first things first
there are donation limits when you go to
meetkevin.com
donate and you want to donate to a
candidate like me you have a limit of
about 32 000
that you can donate which seems like a
lot of money unless you are a
sitting governor who is up against a
recall
then the sitting governor has zero
campaign contribution limits which helps
us understand why the co-ceo of netflix
was just able to donate 3 million
dollars to gavin newsom
but everyone else fighting against him
is stuck at 32
000 so that's just part one of this and
we've got quite a few things to talk
about
see if we do research on the 70 billion
dollar surplus that california and gavin
newsom say we
all of a sudden have a 70 billion dollar
surplus and we have all this extra money
available to spend
we actually realize that gavin newsom is
counting federal funding and leftover
funding
from other years we actually only have a
surplus of about 38 billion dollars but
because gavin newsom is now going on a
spending spree thinking he has 70
billion dollars
he's actually putting us 12 billion
dollars into additional
debt so when we think oh we have a
surplus yay there are going to be
folks with late traffic fines that are
getting those fines waived in other
words newsome's buying
votes we're not using a surplus to do
that we're actually going into further
debt
so that newsome can make sure he gets
re-elected
but folks it doesn't just stop there
gavin newsom
yesterday cheered how sb-7
senate bill 7 is going to streamline
housing and make housing faster and more
efficient
folks let me tell you exactly what sb7
does because we actually read the bill
word for word and here's what it does
sp7 only helps folks
who have projects worth at least 15
million
so if you're developing anything worth
less than 15 million dollars you're not
even on the radar
of sp7 it also only applies to
multi-family units in infill locations
and
it only helps expedite the environmental
review process
and portion of the entire development
process for real estate so
you think this is going to speed up
housing it's not because guess what even
if you speed up the environmental review
process
in order to get authorization to have
your environmental process sped up
you actually have to apply to get
authorization to have your environmental
review
process sped up but guess where you have
to apply
the governor's office so in other words
gavin newsom is funneling anyone with
more than 15 million dollars to spend
right before a recall election through
his office
to get faster approvals folks i don't
know about you but that
sounds a little shady and folks this is
how gavin newsom is branding making real
estate more efficient and more
streamlined in the state
it makes it sound like the sound bite
essentially is that oh great we're
finally making real estate development
easier
no we're making rich 15 million
developments easier to funnel into gavin
newsom's pockets
so that gavin newsom can decide if he
wants to speed up the approval process
for your project
that's literally sp7 for you it's a
complete
disaster and it shows you how ridiculous
politics are in our country no wonder
we're spending 12 and a half times as
much money as we should be spending
on a high speed rail the game is rigged
so the governor's friends
can get payouts but folks it's not just
that the housing and rental assistance
that our state is supposed to be getting
is bogged down by such a disastrous
system
of the governor failing to coordinate
the state
that we now have la county releasing a
statement to the governor saying if the
governor does not streamline the process
for
rent relief and rent forgiveness in the
state
la county might no longer participate
with the state on future programs
now look i want to be clear okay i'm not
saying that the governor is definitely
corrupt
sending money to his friends and cronies
but it's certainly weird
that when the private sector tells us
they can build a high-speed rail for
one-twelfth of the cost why are we not
doing that as a governor
as government as california it's
questionable
why is the governor directing projects
for faster execution if they're more
expensive than 15 million
projects to his office it makes you
wonder i'm not saying the government is
corrupt but let's just say a lot of this
rhymes with
potential corruption and it's also
certainly
shady that we have you know unlimited
donations possible for the
existing governor but not for everybody
else it kind of rhymes with the governor
shutting down hospitality in restaurants
but dining with lobbyists at the french
laundry last year at the peak of
the pandemic it is for gavin
but not for everyone else it is very
shady not only the rental assistance
problem but the surplus problem
sb7s a failure and this donation
disaster
to me are all signs that it is time to
vote gavin newsom out of office
it's time for a transparent process in
politics
nobody's going to be more transparent
than somebody who shows you the behind
the scenes of their campaign
every single day you're going to see
where every single dollar goes in our
campaign but you're also
going to see where every single dollar
goes when i'm running this state
because i'm tired of people wasting
money in the state
and it's not our workers it's not our
unions it's not our teachers that are at
fault and it's not the people receiving
money from the state they're in our
fault
it's gavin newsom's fault he is the
problem and he's standing in the way
of making california what it should be a
golden state
i will change that go to meet kevin.com
donate to donate to the campaign
vote yes on recall 21 and vote yes on
meet kevin pafran for governor
2021
