California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) stunned Americans on Monday when he resorted to vulgar name-calling against Vice President JD Vance, after Vance exposed Democrats’ plan to pour billions into health care for illegal immigrants.
Democrats Push Billions for Migrant Health Care
During tense negotiations over a looming government shutdown, Vice President Vance warned that Democrats were pushing a $1.5 trillion spending package that would send hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars to cover health care for illegal immigrants.
“They want to hand out massive benefits to illegal aliens while everyday Americans are drowning in medical bills,” Vance explained.
Newsom’s Vulgar Response
Instead of defending his party’s reckless priorities, Gov. Newsom fired back on X with a foul-mouthed insult: “Blatantly false, you dip***t”
Conservatives slammed the California Democrat for his childish outburst, calling it another example of the left’s inability to debate facts without smearing opponents.
A Pattern of Disrespect
Newsom’s insult echoed Vance’s recent jab at a left-wing podcast host—an exchange Democrats tried to spin into a joke. But the governor’s crude language against the sitting Vice President has raised eyebrows nationwide.
For many, it shows just how desperate Democrats have become as their agenda continues to unravel under public scrutiny.
Government Shutdown Battle
The spat comes as Washington braces for a possible government shutdown. Democrats, including Newsom and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), are already trying to pin the blame on Republicans—despite pushing what critics call reckless, pro-illegal immigration spending demands.
Americans vs. Illegal Immigrants
At the heart of the fight is a simple question: Should American families who are struggling to afford their own health care be forced to bankroll medical benefits for illegal immigrants?
President Trump and Vice President Vance have made it clear—they are standing with hardworking taxpayers. Democrats, meanwhile, are doubling down on policies that prioritize non-citizens over citizens.
