$8/GAL GAS HELL! Newsom LIES and BLAMES Iran War—Ignores CA Taxes 2X National, Refineries CLOSING

from News For Reasonable People · host Sean Reynolds

California's gas prices are under scrutiny as Governor Gavin Newsom blames Donald Trump's actions in Iran for the soaring costs at the pump. Critics, like Steve Hilton, are blasting Newsom's "insane" climate policies and high gas taxes, which significantly exceed the national average. With California's average gas price at approximately $5.33 per gallon, far surpassing the national average of $3.57, the debate intensifies. Hilton calls for Newsom to suspend the gas tax and address the root causes of the price surge, attributing it to 15 years of one-party Democratic rule. The controversy raises questions about accountability and the true drivers behind California's gas price crisis.
