California Governor Gavin Newsom asked President Joe Biden during a video conference call on Friday afternoon to combat criticism over his disastrous response to the wildfires that erupted this week.
Newsom’s call with Biden comes after several fires erupted in Los Angeles on Tuesday that have, in just a matter of a few days, destroyed approximately 10,000 structures and caused $50 billion in damages and economic loss.
“I ask you, we’ve got to deal with this misinformation,” Newsom said. “There were hurricane force winds of mis[information] and disinformation — lies.”
“People want to divide this country, and we’re gonna have to address that as well,” he claimed. “And it breaks my heart, as people are suffering and struggling, that we’re up against those hurricane forces as well, and that’s just a point of personal privilege that I share that with you, because it infects real people that are out there, people I meet every single day, people the mayor has been meeting with, and they’re having conversations that are not the typical conversations you’d have at this time, and you wonder where this stuff comes from and it’s very damaging as well.”
"There are hurricane force winds of mis- and disinformation. People want to divide this country. We'll have to address that as well. It breaks my heart. … You wonder where this stuff comes from."

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
