Fox Business: Bessent condemns Newsom’s ‘dangerous’ threat to withhold $80B in federal taxes amid trans athlete controversy

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has accused California’s Gov. Gavin Newsom of threatening to commit tax evasion after he threatened to stop paying the “over $80 BILLION” in taxes the state pays to the federal government.

Bessent is a f*ck*ng overreacting drama queen. Gavin Newsom simply made a joke:

“Californians pay the bills for the federal government,” Newsom said on X. “We pay over $80 BILLION more in taxes than we get back. Maybe it’s time to cut that off, @realDonaldTrump.”

Give that such taxes are paid by businesses and individuals directly to the federal government, there’s no way for California to stop the payments.

Fox must be desperate for real news to report.

U.S. Border Patrol Chief Mike Banks told Fox News Wednesday that morale at his agency is “going through the roof” under the Trump administration. 

Speaking to “America’s Newsroom,” Banks said, “We’ve had the handcuffs taken off” and “we’re allowed to actually do our job, which is go out and enforce the law.  

“Under this administration, they have literally taken the handcuffs off and allowed us to enforce law instead of policies that were created to contradict the law and so our morale has continued to rise,” he continued. 

The bully boys are on the loose! Frankly this is scary! We’ve already seen the deplorable results.
