Gavin Newsom: California’s Housing Crisis Is Its Original Sin
@ThisisGavinNewsom joins Scott to discuss why Americans are losing faith in institutions — and whether Democrats still know how to govern.
They discuss California’s housing crisis, homelessness in Los Angeles and San Francisco, AI’s threat to white-collar jobs, wealth taxes, healthcare reform, and why Newsom believes Democrats are often perceived as “slow, weak, and ineffective.”
They also unpack Israel and Iran, the future of capitalism, masculinity, parenting, and the growing divide between the rich and everyone else.
Also, friendly reminder that we're live on Substack.
