California Governor Gavin Newsom says that California’s failure to curb rising homelessness in cities like Los Angeles and San Francisco is the fault of President Donald Trump and the Trump Administration, not a stalemate in the California legislature or failed progressive efforts to curb the rise of tent cities and transient populations.Speaking in Sacramento, California, last week, Newsom claimed that Trump is deliberately withholding “key information” that California needs in order to properly address the homelessness problem, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

Faker Newsom. Lyin’ Newsom.
But while Newsom is quick to place the blame, he isn’t quick to give details on precisely why Trump is to blame for the California homelessness crisis — and that’s probably by design. The “very important material” California is waiting on from the federal government is nothing more than an official Housing and Urban Development count of precisely how many homeless people live in the state of California. Newsom claims that, without those numbers, he can’t release more than $500 million earmarked to abate the systemic problem.
California conducted those counts months ago, however, and merely sent the results to the government to certify. And, as Newsom said in his own remarks, he reserves the right to release the funding — or, at least to accept applications to spend the money — before the federal government issues any official numbers.
Gavin has the information. The state provided it to the federal government.

Today's Democrats (need to separate from say 20+ years ago), are so liberal, and dominated by the even more extreme, Progressives.
They can't admit their policies are bad, and can't work.
After all, their policies are nothing more than jobs programs that dole-out small amounts of the actual budget to the recipients.
The homeless crisis is still pending because they are trying to figure out how to turn it into a massive new government program that will increase the public employee union membership - and benefit which of their large campaign contributors.
It's not about solving the crisis for the people on the streets, don't be naive.

For most of my life (California native), they have been blaming the homeless problem on Ronald Reagan. Reagan hasn't been the governor for 45 years. Now the former Mayor of San Francisco (let that irony sink in for a minute) and sanctuary city pioneer blames Trump.

Nancy Pelosi's nephew, Gavin Newsom (Getty family) is a snake in the grass.
The real problem is, deranged libs in California will actually believe him.
Votes count.

Newsom is not even a good liar. It will take one of those homeless taking over his office to get him to release those funds, which are probably being used to make their budget look better.

Because Trump is creating Jobs with good pay and that's the last thing the homeless want. Jobs you have to pass the drug test for and then show up for work every day.

#5, Newsom's father was attorney for the Getty family. Newsom is NOT related to the Getty's and only tangentially affiliated with Pelosi.

Everything is Trump's fault. Conversely, the failures of leftists like Newsom are never their fault. They may be so delusional in thinking that they are the smartest on the planet and know what's best for everyone, but Marxist theory has deceived them. They are the demonic, jealous, lazy, lying, murdering scum the Marxist theories train them to be. They are or want to be everything they claim to hate; they're life failures and can't make anything happen for themselves without cheating, stealing, and destroying. It's why they can't win elections without lying and cheating.
