California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) announced Thursday that he is sending emergency resources and personnel to Puerto Rico, over 3,000 miles away, ahead of a tropical storm — even though tens of thousands of Californians are still displaced by fires.
Responses on social media were scathing:

This guy is as useless as a screen door on a submarine. A total loser. In way over his head. If this clown weren’t part of California royalty he’d be flipping burgers.
In years past Democrats have done a lot to hurt this state. Gavin’s going to kill it.
Puoeto Rico: It’s official: Now we’re fukked for sure!
The only thing that could make this worse is if Hillary is involved!
He has his sites on a bigger prize not that he’s driven Calif into the ground.
Cut loose PR. They are all US-hating scum.
I’LL BE LEAVING MY GREAT MOTHER’S ASHES ON HER PP PROPERTY NEXT WK
THAT HOUSE ON RADCLIFFE AVE WAS HER PRIDE AND JOY, WE LOST EVERYTHING, INCLUDING MY GREAT DAD’S ASHES, SO I’VE HAD THE LOT CLEARED AND HAVE SELECTED A SPOT
ON MONDAY AM, I WILL BE SPENDING A HALF HR WITH HER BEFORE CREMATION, WILL DELIVER 3 KISSES FOR HER 3 KIDS, OLDER SISTER ON FOREHEAD ABOVE LEFT EYE, YOUNGER SISTER ON FOREHEAD ABOVE HER RIGHT, HER ONE AND ONLY SON’S KISS ON MIDDLE OF FORHEAD
NEVER TOLD HER ABOUT THE HOME LOSS BECAUSE IT WOULD’VE KILLED HER, AND SHE WAS IN SENIOR LIVING IN PP WITH DEMENTIA
WHEN SHE WOULD ASK, I WOULD TELL HER “YOU WORRY TOO MUCH, EVERYTHING IS FINE AND UNDER CONTROL”
LOST THE BEST MOM EVER 7/31, WAS ON MY WAY TO VISIT AND ONLY 10 MIN OUT WHEN SHE PASSED, GOT THERE IN TIME TO HOLD HER HAND WHILE STILL WARM, UNTIL IT WAS COLD
💔💔💔💔💔
Harry, hellary would be involved if it was Haiti.
Newsom is not doing this by mistake. He’s running for President. Everything he does is with an eye toward The Nomination for 2028.
The late great Maha Rushie taught that everything Dems do is focused on the next election.
Surely there is a District Judge who can issue an injunction. If Trump did it there would be a restraining order immediately.
geoff – That is exactly my point. Puerto Rico is just greener pastures for the old bitch!
¡¡BENITO – Sorry about your loss.
That was touching. Thanks for sharing.
THX HARRY!!
¡¡BENITO –
Sorry to hear of your loss… it is never easy.
Shalom.
THANK YOU, SIPPIN’!!
So sorry Benito. Via con Dios.
THANK YOU, LOWELL!!
Damn, BENITO, it had to happen, but damn. It always hurts.
I’m glad you got to say goodbye in your way. I was 1/2 hr away and kissed her forehead after she passed. Mine, too, was the greatest Mom ever, I feel your loss.
We are fortunate for whatever we get out of life. Thank you, God.
“Cut loose PR. They are all US-hating scum.”
I personally know Miss P.R. 1973.
I can verify that isn’t a completely true statement.
THANK YOU, DADOF4!!
Correction. Aida Betancourt was Miss PR in 1969.
You’re quite welcome BENITO. You’ll be in my prayers tonight.
Dear Benito,
So sorry to learn of your Mom’s passing. May she Rest in Peace, Amen .
Benito,
I was fortunate to be with my mom when I watched her take her last breath and know that the very next second she was getting her heart’s desire … to see Jesus.
I had made a promise to her when I was in MN when my dad died in MI. Told her that when it was time that she needed me, I would move home to be there. I got to be with her for two years before she died, and it was a blessed time.
I’m glad you were able to comfort her even though her house was lost. That was the kindest thing you could have done for her. God bless you.
Praying for divine comfort for you, Benito—and for good memories that will last forever.
GENI, CLAUDIA, AND MARYFROM MARIN,
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!
@BENITO — Your mother is with God and you will be with her again (I hope not too soon). God bless you and her. ☦️🙏💜
THANK YOU, UNCLE AL!!
Benito. So very sorry for your loss of your mom.
What a fine son and man your are,
God bless you and may the the love of Christ comfort you in this time of need.
Our Love and prayers to you and your family, Geoff and Abigail Adams.
¡¡BENITO THE BOMBED BEANER!!

…may the Lord bless you and your family, Benito, give you peace as you put your mothers earthly remains to rest at the site of the home she once filled with so much love, and may He give you the Blessed Assurance that she continues in life eternal with Him where she awaits you and her other children when you lay your trophies down, and comfort you in the certain knowlege that beyond this world lies far more than memory.
It is not poasible for one man to truly know the pain of another, but I lost my own mother to dementia not that long ago, and it was a terrible thing to watch a woman once so smart, so loving, and so full of life rapidly deteriorate to one who could not sit up to watch a TV she no longer understood well enough to turn off.
The Lord healed her the best way he could. He called her home where she no longer was caged in a crumbling house of flesh, to a glorifed body that no disease can ever touch. As it is with her, so it is with your mother, freed from all hurt harm or danger forever by His mercy and His grace.
And I was quite commiserant with your getting there after her passing to hold her cooling hand one final time. When my own mother passed my niece had texted from the hospital to get there, and in traffic I was about 15 minutes out when she texted me with “She’s gone”. I got there as you did to find her cooling and clearly beyond recall, which I consider a mercy in hindsight because had I been there to catch her last breath I would have likely out of greif ignored her DNR and wishes stated when she was still sentient and even the will of God and said or did sonething really stupid, but the Lord spared me from that.
And His thoughts are not our thoughts, but I wonder if it isnt a mercy of His that your mother never knew of the destruction of your ancesteral home. Safe in her mansion in Heaven, perhaps you can ask her one day yourself.
I have little to comfort with but thorns, so all I can truly do is lift you up to the Lord and pray He sends His Comforter to you and your family as you take her remains back to her earthly home. May He remind you that absent from her body is present with the Lord.
God Bless,

GEOFF AND AA, SNS, THANK YOU FOR THE THOUGHTS AND KIND WORDS!!
