It’s a good thing that Chef Gruel thinks that french fries should be made in tallow and not grease because that might put California governor Gavin Newsom’s hair in mortal danger.

Newsom is both hated in California and safe in its leadership due to the nepotistic one-party rule that is the California government. Many businesses, or in liberal parlance, evil corporations who don’t pay their fair share (Panera Bread excepted, of course), are hit with a whopping bill not of their own making.

A little explainer. And believe us, if California stays true to form, this tax will remain in effect until the Sun goes supernova.

The man’s paying 20 grand a month in payroll and they’re going to run him out of California because Sacramento is incredibly corrupt. https://t.co/5l32xxLyTi

Get out of California before you have to bribe a border guard with a Rolex to get out. https://t.co/PBKxcdTFbU
