BREAKING: HOLY SH*T! Governor Gavin Newsom shreds Vice President J.D. Vance after his "reckless" military event results in a LIVE EXPLOSIVE detonating early and raining dangerous shrapnel down on a California highway.
All of this insanity just to counter the No Kings protests...
"This is the type of explosive that detonated prematurely," Newsom wrote on X, attaching the photo of the artillery shell included in our graphic. "The best Fox News can come up with is 'CONCERNING.' This could have killed someone."
Newsom quote-tweeted a report from Fox News in which they wrote "'CONCERNING': A piece of metal shrapnel hit a California Highway Patrol car, CHP officials said, after an 'explosive ordnance' detonated prematurely during a Marine Corps 250th anniversary event. No injuries were reported."
"We love our Marines and owe a debt of gratitude to Camp Pendleton, but next time, the Vice President and the White House shouldn’t be so reckless with people’s lives for their vanity projects," Newsom wrote in another post.
According to The Guardian, a "live artillery shell exploded prematurely" while U.S. Marines were conducting a "live-fire demonstration" launching projectiles over Interstate 5, a normally busy freeway in California.
While the waste of taxpayer dollars was supposedly intended to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the Marine Corps, it was widely interpreted by many commentators as a "counter-protest" to the No Kings protests that swept the nation over the weekend in opposition to the Trump administration.
Shrapnel from the shell rained down on a California Highway Patrol vehicle and a motorcycle that were part of J.D. Vance's detail. Newsom is absolutely correct in his analysis.
Someone could have easily been killed and it all would have been so that J.D. Vance could play-act as a general.
Thankfully, Newsom previously ordered the freeway closed after learning that, shockingly, military officials were not planning to do so themselves. If it weren't for the governor's leadership, innocent Americans might be lying dead right now, sacrificed to Vance's vanity. Newsom called the display an “absurd show of force” that was “totally uncalled for."
After the shell exploded, the exercise was canceled and the area was swept for fragments, although none were discovered. It was an embarrassing end to a childish event.
It's quite frankly a miracle that nobody was harmed and you can be absolutely certain that if this had happened on the orders of a Democratic vice president, Fox News would be running wall to wall coverage calling it the most irresponsible action in American history.
