  • The California Democrat has pressed moderate measures to aid victims and been a constant TV presence as he and the state battle online falsehoods.

The article discusses the political challenges faced by California Governor Gavin Newsom due to the recent wildfires in Los Angeles. Newsom has been criticized by Republican opponents for what they perceive as inadequate state preparation and response to the fires.
