BELEM, BRAZIL — Crowned by global media outlets as the most important American at the United Nations “climate” summit in Belem, far-left California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) slammed U.S. President Donald Trump as an “invasive species” while signing deals with hostile foreign governments. The American president, Newsom suggested, must be stopped in order to save the world from alleged man-made climate change.
Among other major announcements, Newsom inked a number of unconstitutional quasi-treaties with foreign governments — several of which are dominated by self-proclaimed communist and socialist leaders hostile to the United States. These “partnerships,” signed on the third day of the UN climate summit, will supposedly “improve environmental protection” and “strengthen cooperation on climate and job-creating clean energy,” his office said in a statement.
“California remains a steadfast partner in confronting the climate crisis,” Newsom declared. “These agreements strengthen our collaboration to advance healthy ecosystems and healthy communities — cutting methane emissions across waste, agriculture, and energy sectors to achieve shared climate goals. California is proud to unite shoulder-to-shoulder with Chile, Colombia and Brazil to deliver real results for people and the planet.”
All of it is blatantly illegal and unconstitutional. In Article 1, Section 10, the U.S. Constitution prohibits these sorts of agreements. “No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation,” it says. As if that were not clear enough, Article 1, Section 10 also says: “No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, … enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power.”
Asked if California was standing in for the United States at the summit, with the Trump administration’s conspicuous absence, Newsom did not hesitate. “Absolutely,” he said. “And I think the world sees us in that light, as a stable partner, a historic partner … in the absence of American leadership. And not just absence of leadership, the doubling down of stupid in terms of global leadership on clean energy.”
