Gavin Newsom Boasts About Giving Taxpayer-Funded 'Free' Healthcare to Illegal Aliens

California Governor Gavin Newsom is openly reaffirming his support for extending state-funded healthcare to illegal immigrants, telling The New York Times he is “proud” of California’s decision to use taxpayer dollars to provide medical coverage to those residing in the state unlawfully.

In a Truth Social post, President Trump called California “more corrupt than Minnesota” —a true fact— and said California was “under investigation,” without providing details.

In response, California governor and French Laundry aficionado Gavin Newsom shot back, “Donald Trump is a deranged, habitual liar whose relationship with reality ended years ago.” Weak. But —and here’s the thing— he didn’t deny massive California welfare fraud. Instead, he claimed, “Since taking office, I’ve blocked over $125 BILLION in fraud, arrested criminal parasites leaching off of taxpayers, and protected taxpayers from the exact kind of scam artists Trump celebrates, excuses, and pardons.”

How many more billions weren’t blocked? Newsom’s protestations about tackling fraud sound just like what Governor Walz tried to claim at the beginning of the current scandal— meaning less than a month ago.

As for the claim that the oleaginous governor blocked ‘$125 BILLION in fraud’— well, I can’t wait to see his receipts. Since 2024, California’s main obstacle to stopping fraud has been one Gavin Newsom. Headline from ABC-10 Sacramento:

We shall see. Good luck, Gavin.
