Podcast giant Joe Rogan and NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers blasted California Democrats this week for their extreme climate agenda, which includes trying to ban gas-powered vehicles.
The remarks come as the Democrat-controlled state is aggressively pushing to ban sales of new gas cars in the state by 2035, a move designed to force people to buy electric vehicles, which has already proven to be too taxing on the state’s power grid.
“Like they just can’t wait to put more controls on people in any way, shape, or form. They’re trying to outlaw internal combustion engines by 2035. No new sales,” Rogan said. “Guess what, you f***s? Every time the power is like in the summertime, they tell people not to charge their cars, because the grid is gonna go down. Like, what do you got to do? You got to do a radical upheaval of the grid in 11 years? No, you’re not.”
“I’m sure Newsom can get it done,” Rodgers sarcastically quipped.
“Yeah, they’re just talking. They just, it’s like, literally every goal is to just say the right things, check the right boxes so people think you’re green,” Rogan continued. “You’re green and you’re all DEI’d out. And then they don’t care about the infrastructure of the country. It’s f***ing crazy.”
“No, they don’t care at all,” Rodgers responded. “They definitely don’t care at all. It’s control. They just want control. They want total control.”

“But see that’s like this, you realize how much A) it’s control, and B), it doesn’t change anything,” Rogan, who moved from California to Texas, said. “You’re not safer when they do it like that. Like you’re better off here.”
“Well, Texas has its own grid,” Rodgers noted.
“Yes, that’s true, too. And Texas provides oil to much of the country,” Rogan responded. “Like Texas could be its own country.”
