California Governor Gavin Newsom attempted to blame President Trump for the unemployment rate today in the once Golden State.
The latest numbers show that California has an unemployment rate of 4.4%.
Newsome wrote on X: “The unemployment rate has increased to 4.3% This is the highest unemployment rate since the pandemic. Donald Trump is wrecking our economy.”

Of course, this is another Newsom lie.
According to the St. Louis Fed, the unemployment rate one year ago in September, 2024 under Joe Biden was 5.5%, higher than it is today.
Governor Newsom was not able to get away with this latest smear against President Trump.
X users called him out immediately by Community Notes.
You gotta love that!
