California Gov. Gavin Newsom vetoed AB 1840, which would have given illegal aliens $150,000 for housing through the California Dream for All program because, well, no money.

California Dream for All receives state funding and money from the “California Housing Finance Agency, which generates revenue through mortgage loans and not from taxpayers.”
“Given the finite funding available for CalHFA programs, expanding program eligibility must be carefully considered within the broader context of the annual state budget to ensure we manage our resources effectively,” wrote Newsom.
Newsom added: “For this reason, I am unable to sign this bill.”

Gov. Noisome’s unstated reason for the veto: “Signing it might have had a negative impact on my future Presidential ambitions.”
He can afford to irritate left-wing California Democrats because he isn’t running for anything this year, and the veto will not cause them to run out and vote for Trump.
So are we to believe that the legislature, whose other job is funding programs, was somehow blissfully unaware that there was no money?
More likely this was a clay pigeon sent up to make Newsom look like Quigley.
Blissfully Indifferent to the fact they have no money.
Cal Democrats control the voting machine software, so things can wait.
They literally had no money for this. The existing program ran out of money after 11 days.
Lack of money never stopped him before – he’s positioning to run for president.
I despise this governor. But I applaud my enemies when they actually do something good,
