For the first-ever interview feature on So, Does It Matter? it should come as no surprise to insiders in California politics that Jon would reach out to his dear friend and fellow chronicler of the Golden State, Katy. Once upon a time, before rising to her position as the Editor-In-Chief of the California Globe (which is the online “news source of record” for conservatives following the State Capitol and beyond), Katy used to be the State Capitol Correspondent for the FlashReport (Jon’s sister publication). Of course, there were a few gigs in between.
In this nearly 40-minute interview, Jon and Katy talk (a lot) about Gavin Newsom and the First Partner. They talk about Newsom’s Presidential campaign, his penchant for saying one thing and doing another, and, of course, his new (as of late June) anti-Trump posturing. Other topics include the growing troubles for Senator Adam Schiff, the most potent groups controlling policy in the Capitol, and Jon even forces Katy to discuss some Democratic legislators she dislikes, as well as a few Republicans on her radar.
