The governor has also been telling Californians to avoid social gatherings with people from outside their immediate households. He has also apologized and said he needs “to preach and practice, not just preach.”But then photos emerged. They showed the table was enclosed on at least three sides. A spokesman for the governor’s office declined to comment on the room’s layout, but witnesses told Fox LA that a sliding door was eventually closed, sealing the room. Gallagher called on the governor to set a better example.“Most of our cases are coming from private gatherings – weddings, family gatherings, celebrations,” he said. “It’s hard to force a free society to stop people from gathering. As we’ve seen from the governor, even he himself has a hard time avoiding private gatherings.”FILE – In this June 30, 2020, file photo, Gov. Gavin Newsom removes his face mask before giving an update during a visit to Pittsburg, Calif. Newsom said in a statement Friday, Nov. 13, that he should not have attended a birthday dinner with a dozen people at the posh French Laundry restaurant last week, saying that he should have set a better example for a virus-fatigued state that is seeing steep increases in coronavirus cases. Newsom’s decision to attend was made as he’s been telling others to not mingle with others outside their households.

According to legend, (despite historians saying otherwise) she responded “let them eat cake” after being informed that her starving subjects had no bread.“Eating with a bunch of lobbyists at an expensive restaurant, this is at the same time that you’ve put half of California out of work,” Dhillon said. “Add up drinks and appetizers — their meal per person was more than the monthly unemployment check.”State Sen. Shannon Grove, head of the Republican Caucus in her chamber, turned to Twitter with a “Pop Quiz.”“In California, $350 is equal to: (a) one week’s unemployment check for millions of California workers (b) the cost of Gavin Newsom’s dinner at Napa’s French Laundry restaurant or (c) both of the above,” she wrote. Los Angeles County Health Director Barbara Ferrer called Newsom’s decision to attend the dinner “a big mistake” that she trusts won’t happen again, according to the Associated Press.“In the future, when critics of lobbyists make their case, this dinner will be Exhibit A,” Claremont McKenna College politics professor Jack Pitney told the Associated Press. Fox News’ Jordan Early, James Rogers and the Associated Press contributed to this report.
