It's Lake County, and anyone north of Babylon-By-The-Bay is painfully familiar with the utter contempt in which Lake County Folks are beheld by Marin and Sonoma county bureaucrats (and many residents of those counties, too.) Newsom shares that contempt and is utterly unconcerned for the lives and livelihoods of those considered entirely expendable. His recent purchase of a Marin County mansion surprised no one; he is at home with his tribe now.
Newsom is an evil man; his pursuit of power over others consumes him utterly. He grinds Californians under his authoritarian bootheel with ill-concealed glee.
The lives already lost mean less than nothing to him and destroying water reservoirs will lead to even greater loss of life. That is of no consequence to Newsom. If Clearlake had a dam, he'd dynamite that, too, laughing all the way to the bank.
