In 2024, Gavin Newsom sent a "surge" of California Highway Patrol officers to combat crime in Oakland. But in the first year of the surge, state troopers arrested very few violent criminals. Instead they stopped 15,000 Black and Latino drivers.

In 1968 a B-52 bomber carrying four thermonuclear weapons crashed on the ice just west of the US military base in Greenland. While the bombs did not detonate, they burned-- dispersing toxic and radioactive pollutants into the surrounding environment. 1/

For those following Gavin Newsom's crime-fighting claims, Annie Gilbertson dug into the data on his "surge" of state troopers to Oakland.

Violent crime arrests? Exceedingly few
Disproportionate stops of Black and Latino drivers? Check

In 2024, we obtained hundreds of pages of ICE training materials. None of the training documents we obtained address how to de-escalate tense or dangerous situations and avoid the use of force.
