Richard Eskow and Sonali Kolhatkar discuss California Governor Gavin Newsom’s recent actions and their impact on his political future.

Newsom, once seen as a rising star in the Democratic Party, has faced criticism for platforming white supremacists like Charlie Kirk and Steve Bannon.

They contrast Newsom’s approach with Bernie Sanders’ consistent advocacy for progressive policies.
