Mandate "Gavin [Newsom] vs Larry [Elder] & Larry is going to take Gavin to the Woodshed. Gavin represents... Privilege, Deceit. Larry represents Wisdom, Kindness, Common Sense"
At times, I have found that the comments in the Catholic Monitor comment section are better than my post. This was true of yesterday's post in which Aqua wrote this insightful comment:
Larry Elder is one of those men who possesses the light of wisdom - which expresses itself as genuine kindness to others on a personal level and correct answers, with reasons, for every question of policy. Wise men are much preferable to “smart” men. Wisdom is of God. Knowledge is of Satan. God populates His Kingdom with those who became like “little children” (Matt 19:14). Satan’s kingdom is filled with proud, powerful (and deceitful) smart men and women.
In our modern world of scientism we value knowledge (credentials, education, IQ) over wisdom (common sense). Most people don’t even know what wisdom even means. But Catholics know that wisdom was the first of God’s creations, which existed outside of time before the world, and that in which He take most delight, on earth now as in heaven. Wisdom was most personified in the Blessed Mother, Full Of Grace. Wisdom does not reference human hierarchy, privilege and rank. Usually those with the least (stuff) … have the most (wisdom).
And so we will have Gavin vs Larry and Larry is going to take Gavin to the woodshed. Gavin represents knowledge, power, privilege, deceit. Larry represents wisdom, kindness, common sense.
People are paying close attention now, and empty platitudes won’t cut it for oil’ Gavin, which is his specialty, because no matter what our politics were before we all see now that we are losing everything to people like Gavin who are taking everything that is ours and putting it into his personal portfolio of stuff and spending it on soirées at fancy restaurants and extensive landholdings and personal stuff. And he will have to defend his theft against a nice, kind man who knows deep truth and is willing to use it in defense of the common man against tyrants like Gavin.
Larry will put Gavin’s empty words and spiritual sanctimony to the test.[https://www.thecatholicmonitor.com/2021/08/is-mandate-newsom-losing-recall-vote-by.html]
Just prior to the start of the first televised debate in the Gavin Newsom recall election Wednesday evening, a shock poll showed the governor losing the first question ("Should Gavin Newsom be recalled?") by double digits.
The poll came from Survey USA and the San Diego Union Tribune, and was conducted among 1,100 Californians from Aug. 2 to Aug. 4. It found that 51% of respondents were in favor of recalling Newsom, while only 40% wanted to keep him in power. The previous Survey USA/San Diego Union Tribune poll from May found 36% in favor of the recall with 47% opposed.

Moreover, the liberal California website thought the reason may be the California "mask mandates":
What happened in two weeks' time that sent Newsom from an uncomfortable, but somewhat stable five percentage point advantage to a much more precarious two percentage point advantage? There's a good chance it's just noise (the poll's margin of error is plus or minus three percentage points), but if you're looking for a real-life event that could have shifted public opinion, such an event does exist.
The end-of-July news cycle was dominated by coverage of the spread of the delta variant of COVID-19, and 50% of California's population is now under an indoor mask mandate.
In the Bay Area and Sacramento, some vaccinated residents have spoken out against the new mandates, and it's definitely possible (if not very likely) there's even more opposition to the measures that individuals would rather keep to themselves so as not to get labeled anti-mask.
Newsom himself did not issue any mask mandates, as the California Department of Public Health recommends, but does not require, indoor masks. That change in statewide guidance was accompanied by the governor stating that he supports counties that choose to implement mandates, so the governor can technically be linked to the new mask mandates.

Might Newsom be losing not just because of the mask mandates, but because of the vaccine mandates?
Conservative scholar Dinesh D'Souza reported that "Blacks and Hispanics... have the lowest rates of Covid—9 vaccination":
Which groups are not taking the #vaccines? Blacks and Hispanics. They have the lowest rates of Covid—9 vaccination. But the media pretends like the real culprits are Trump voters. Could this be because it’s easier to chastise and revile Trump voters than blacks and Hispanics? [https://twitter.com/DineshDSouza/status/1424094749393182720]
Stop for a moment of silence, ask Jesus Christ what He wants you to do now and next. In this silence remember God, Father, Son and Holy Ghost - Three Divine Persons yet One God, has an ordered universe where you can know truth and falsehood as well as never forget that He wants you to have eternal happiness with Him as his son or daughter by grace. Make this a practice. By doing this you are doing more good than reading anything here or anywhere else on the Internet.
Francis Notes:
- Doctor
of the Church St. Francis de Sales totally confirmed beyond any doubt
the possibility of a heretical pope and what must be done by the Church
in such a situation:
"[T]he Pope... WHEN he is EXPLICITLY a heretic, he falls ipso facto from his dignity and out of the Church, and the Church MUST either deprive him, or, as some say, declare him deprived, of his Apostolic See."
(The Catholic Controversy, by St. Francis de Sales, Pages 305-306)
Saint Robert Bellarmine, also, said "the Pope heretic is not deposed ipso facto, but must be declared deposed by the Church."

weight behind communion for adulterers," December 4, 2017:
The AAS guidelines explicitly allows "sexually active adulterous couples
facing 'complex circumstances' to 'access the sacraments of
Reconciliation and the Eucharist.'"
- On February 2018, in Rorate Caeli, Catholic theologian Dr. John Lamont:
"The AAS statement... establishes that Pope Francis in Amoris Laetitia
has affirmed propositions that are heretical in the strict sense."
- On December 2, 2017, Bishop Rene Gracida:
"Francis' heterodoxy is now official. He has published his letter to the
Argentina bishops in Acta Apostlica Series making those letters
magisterial documents."
Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Church by the bishops by the grace of God.
