Governor Newsom caught throwing a temper tantrum over recent Democrat defeat

Newsom wants all the attention he can get. He’ll do it by any means necessary.

And Governor Newsom was caught throwing a temper tantrum over a recent Democrat defeat.

California Governor Gavin Newsom, that slick Democrat eyeing a White House run in 2028, just unleashed a tirade against his own party’s senators for cutting a deal with Republicans to end the government shutdown. He’s fuming that they didn’t lock in those bloated Obamacare premium subsidies from the COVID days, claiming it sells out everyday working folks.

Newsom didn’t hold back on social media late Sunday, blasting the move right after eight Democrats crossed the aisle in a key procedural vote. This paved the way for a continuing resolution to keep the government humming along.

“Pathetic,” he said in a post on X.

His press team doubled down, labeling the Democrats’ backdown as nothing short of embarrassing.

“This isn’t a deal,” his office posted on X. “It’s a surrender. Don’t bend the knee!”

Switching to his official governor’s account, Newsom piled on with more fire, slamming the Senate’s decision as a total flop when backbone was needed most.

“Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength. Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans,” Newsom stated. “The American people need more from their leaders.”

Newsom has been pointing fingers squarely at President Donald Trump and the GOP for the shutdown mess, even though he admits Democrats could have dug in their heels and kept it going.

Earlier that Sunday, the governor popped up on CNN to rip into the Trump crew, calling their tactics downright dirty.

He accused the administration of being “shameful,” and said they were dangling the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program—those food stamps millions rely on—as “a bargaining chip to end this shutdown.”

The defectors in the Senate? A bunch of Democrats who broke ranks with their leader, Chuck Schumer from New York. We’re talking Maggie Hassan and Jeanne Shaheen from New Hampshire, Dick Durbin from Illinois, Jacky Rosen from Nevada, and Tim Kaine from Virginia.

They joined up with Catherine Cortez-Masto from New Mexico, independent Angus King from Maine, and John Fetterman from Pennsylvania—these last three had already signaled they’d go along with the House version earlier.

As far as the Republicans, only Kentucky’s Rand Paul stood firm with a “no” vote, bucking his party.

The vote squeaked through by the skin of its teeth, setting up a final push for a straightforward continuing resolution. That’ll fund Uncle Sam until January 30, 2026, tacked on with some low-drama spending bills to carry through the year, according to reports from Breitbart News’s Bradley Jaye.

Democrats had been howling for a ironclad promise to extend those juiced-up Obamacare subsidies, but all they got was a vague nod from Senate Majority Leader John Thune of South Dakota for a future vote. Over in the House, Speaker Mike Johnson from Louisiana isn’t even committing to touching it.

This whole episode exposes the cracks in the Democrat machine—Newsom’s outburst shows how even their rising stars are fed up when the party folds under pressure from a strong Republican front.

Trump and the GOP held the line, refusing to let big-government handouts balloon forever, and now the left is eating its own over it.

In the end, this deal keeps the lights on without caving to every left-wing demand, a win for common-sense governance that puts America first.
