Newsom has the right idea. all the blue states should be hiring the experts that are getting shoved out of the federal government.

Blue states should pool resources to hire experts and form a shadow cabinet.

I applaud Gov. Newsom for hiring Drs. Monarez & Houry after they left the CDC. The work and advisement they can do for California and most likely, the nation, will protect the health of millions of Americans. Bravo!!

To the brave, patriotic and COMPASSIONATE citizens who continue to push back against the ICE agents, a huge THANK YOU. You are saving the vulnerable and unjustly targeted. 🫶🏻🫶🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

Yes!!! I live in CA and enthusiastically support Gov Newsom. Hiring the top two experts from CDC to be involved in the medical care for residents of CA and other enlightened state is huge and demonstrates the active leadership of Newsom! More need to be involved in this way and at this level. 👍👍

Your tribute to the Reiners was very touching, thank you.

It's heartwarming to know so many people like those in MN are fighting back against this regime's racist attacks on dark skinned people and the inhumane way they treat those they imprisoned gives me hope that this tyrant will be soon be gone along with Milker and the rest of his sewer rats.

I’m so glad people are showing up to defend their communities. All this lawlessness and cruelty has got to stop! I’ve even heard some community leaders and law enforcement say that if ICE breaks a state laws they will be arrested, and Illinois just passed that law keeping ICE away from courts, schools, churches, etc. I’m so grateful that the pushback is becoming relentless. If an ICE agent has a warrant, okay, do your thing. But these raids and racially profiled stops have got to end! As far as Gavin goes, I say, thank God someone has the good sense to trust science and to take action to enact good policy. Expertise matters!

I love seeing just ordinary citizens working together to fight ICE. Standing in freezing temps and refusing to back down. This is what's going to save democracy--one citizen at a time.

There is no reason to allow Trump to shut down the careers of scientists who have dedicated their lives to making public health their top priority. If Trump disregards their expertise, dedication and passion for the public good and “fires” them from their jobs, cheers to Gavin Newsom for hiring them so they can continue to work for the public good. The sound you are hearing, louder every day, is that of a million giant razzberries blown in Donald Trump’s general direction.

Governor Newsom is a responsible leader. He had the opportunity to hire two highly qualified people to serve his state and he did.

Thank you to the people of Minnesota, who braved the bitter cold to defend the workers against ICE. Our congressional leaders should take note! Ordinary people are braver and more compassionate than the majority in both houses!

It's incredible to see fellow Americans banding together, even in the freezing cold weather, to thwart the efforts of ICE to harass and arrest hard-working people. Why are they so afraid to go after the gangs who are the real blight on society? Because they're feckless cowards, that's why. Newsome hiring the former CDC director is a step forward in getting the truth out there that Trump, R. Kennedy Jr and his Clown Car Cabinet are hiding. Onward!

1 - Newsom's action is a good start to bringing back competence for our health.

2 - It makes me very happy that people and communities are standing up against the unlawful actions of ICE. ICE actors need to be unmasked, identify themselves, specify who they are seeking to arrest, and have valid warrants signed by judges.
