You had talked about tuition expenses last wk & I pointed out tuition free community college in CA because of Newsom but I guess you didn't want to give him any credit because of your NDS. He also signed a bill for debt free bachelor degrees. It's about priorities.

@msignorile.bsky.social Wish you could give credit where credit is due w/ Gavin & focus on bigger picture that affects a LOT of people rather than making the perfect the enemy of the good on 1 singular issue that affects a teeny-tiny few. www.gov.ca.gov/2026/09/26/g...

@msignorile.bsky.social As usual, listening to your show around 2pm today. 90% of what you said about AOC was applicable to Newsom. BTW, we have FREE 2 yr community colleges in CA thanks to Gavin & he just signed bill that will allow those colleges to offer some Bachelors degrees!

@msignorile.bsky.social "Trump has launched an all-out assault on the LGBTQ community, using medical records to target U.S. servicemembers & civilians.That's why I just signed a 6-bill package that strengthens privacy protections and supports vulnerable individuals, including veterans." G. Newsom

Great interview. Addresses some of the same questions I know you would ask and answers those questions with reason, logic, compassion & humor. Nobody else is. Wish you could get past your Gavin Derangement Syndrome and actually hear what he says. youtu.be/L6lnqCFJa1s?...

@msignorile.bsky.social Michelangelo, trans sports affects few people, but became a potent culture-war issue that reached voters like my Democratic brother. Newsom & Talarico can disagree on this narrow issue & still support trans rights. Bashing good Democratic allies over it is counterproductive.

@msignorile.bsky.social Re: Conservative immigrants. Always amazed at Filipino's in Bay Area that left dictatorship of Marcos & then voted for dictator Trump. Same with a GAY Cuban we know in Miami. Left Cuba dictatorship & then votes for dictator Trump. I would call but glossophobic, lol.

@deanobeidallah.bsky.social Dem since Kennedy 60's. Mom & relatives Repubs. C.O. for Viet Nam. Hippie. As far left as Bernie but more pragmatic. I don't believe in denigrating Democrats. Believe in BIG Tent & winning Repubs are self interest & culture wars. Dems= equality, science/logic. I'm gay.

@msignorile.bsky.social @deanobeidallah.bsky.social Sent an email to Gavin asking him to appear on Progress Radio. Hope he does. I agree with both of you about 90% of the time and agree with him about 90% of the time. Would love to see that other 10% discussed at some point.

@deanobeidallah.bsky.social You keep saying your not bashing Hakeem but then proceed to bash Hakeem. Your whole show tonight is counterproductive. It only helps MAGA. Like a MAGA troll. I know you will do the same if Gavin is the candidate. Are you sure YOU are a Democrat?
August 26, 2026 at 11:12 PM
@deanobeidallah.bsky.social I agree with Rick. It is YOU, Dean, that is being divisive. It was offensive when you asked if he is MAGA. You are doing more to help MAGA. So self righteous and wrong.
August 26, 2026 at 11:05 PM
@deanobeidallah.bsky.social Hakeem bashing over the top, self righteous & ultimately more divisive. You mischaracterization him as “status quo.” Bernie did the same w/ Hillary in ‘16, painting her as a monster & many of his followers didn’t vote, cast protest votes or voted 3rd party. Not helpful.
August 26, 2026 at 10:47 PM
@msignorile.bsky.social @deanobeidallah.bsky.social I Michelangelo suffers from Newsom derangement syndrome & regularly mischaracterization him like they did with Hillary which gave us Trump. Quit denigrating a good Democrat! It’s counterproductive! #gavinnewsom2028 youtu.be/ca_p6mkGRus?...

@deanobeidallah.bsky.social BRAVO! It was nice to hear you honestly report about Gavin Newsom’s comments standing up to Trump without quickly adding disparaging remarks about him! I think it was the 1st time!?? Usually, you can’t wait to say something negative about him, undermining a good Democrat
July 17, 2026 at 11:33 PM
@msignorile.bsky.social Same self-righteous whack-a-doodles on the left that helped Trump win over Hillary in 2016 & over Harris in ‘24 & now attacking good Democrats like Weiner & Newsom & misconstrue positions & make perfect enemy of good. M.S.? eedition.sfchronicle.com/infinity/art...

@deanobeidallah.bsky.social Assimilation is annihilation. True for all minorities, including the LGBTQI+. So many young queer people don't get it. They believe we fought the last 50yrs so we wouldn't need separate gay spaces. I wrote these lyrics: music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

@msignorile.bsky.social Loved this & thought of you & discussion of Barney Frank & your Newsom derangement syndrome & obsession about prioritizing a handful of trans athletes over more important issues for the vast majority of trans, lgbtqi+, progressives, Dems, voters, etc. Get priorities right!

@deanobeidallah.bsky.social What should Democrats focus on? Fits on a bumper sticker:

Make Life Affordable. Make Government Work. Cut the Drama.
