Recall Newsom: The Case Against America's Most Corrupt Governor

by Kevin Kiley

California’s response to COVID-19 has been the worst in America, with incomparable economic destruction, loss of life, and violations of democratic norms. In this devastating critique, California Legislator Kevin Kiley traces these tragic outcomes to the self-interested and lawless actions of Governor Gavin Newsom, who expressly set out to use the virus as an “opportunity” for a “new progressive era.” Kiley successfully prosecuted the legal case against Newsom, winning a judgment from a California Superior Court that the Governor abused his emergency powers and violated the Constitution. Now, using the same engaging and evidence-rich style that has attracted millions to his Capitol Quagmire blog, Kiley offers an alarming inside-the-Capitol account of how Newsom seized absolute power more to hype his presidential ambitions than to protect the California public. This urgently needed book makes the case for not only the removal of the most corrupt Governor in America, but the revival of liberty and self-government in the Golden a new politics of sanity and decency to save the California Dream before it’s too late. “With the tenacity of a former prosecutor, California Legislator Kevin Kiley pulls no punches as he exposes the French Laundry list of ways Gavin Newsom has abused the public trust. There’s only one person who’s made a more compelling case for the Newsom himself.” – Orin Heatlie, Lead Proponent, Recall Newsom About The Author Kevin Kiley was reelected to the State Assembly with the highest vote total for a Republican in California history. A graduate of Harvard and Yale Law School and former high school teacher in South Central Los Angeles, he is the only 100 percent citizen-backed California Legislator, refusing all funding from the Special Interests that spent millions electing Gavin Newsom.

A good critique of the abuse of power Gavin Newsom has exploited since he took the governor's chair.

An eye-opening account of the governorship of Gavin Newsom. I learned many things I was not aware of and I'm one of those people who like to keep on top of what is happening. The book also explained many things that I found mysterious and/or inexplicable in terms of Newsom's behavior and policies.

If you live in California, and especially if you feel befuddled as to why we find ourselves in the condition we are in, this may be informative reading for you.

Kiley has an easy, plain spoken style and the book is a fast read.

4.5 stars.
The title of the book is quite a claim to make, but after reading the book I actually think it’s not off the mark.
I am an independent voter in California, when I first heard about the recall I was skeptical - Newsom had a hard job in 2020 with the pandemic and everything else going wrong in California.
However - it wasn’t until I looked at the situation more critically that I realized Newsom created or exacerbated a lot of the problems we saw with the last year. One of the most important to me is that he allowed schools to remain closed indefinitely, while his children attended private school. When you realize his campaign has received millions from the California teacher unions, it’s no wonder.
I could go on and on, but the book has already done this for me. Read the book - and you might just come to the same conclusion that he needs be recalled.

This book details the in depth problems of California's government and highlights with precision the unique corruption perpetrated by Gavin Newsom. Ironclad evidence of Gavin's unconstitutional action is presented with clarity. The events are presented with honest bipartisanship and genuine interest in the success of California and her peoples. A more genuine plea for California has never been written.

Governor of California? He acts more like Emperor Palpatine.
