Crabtree asked Gardon torender paperworkdetailing his diagnosis.
“If the early paperwork is not available, is there any evidence of a more recent dyslexia diagnosis he can provide?” she wrote, in part.
Gardon told Crabtree to “f**k off” in response, according to the screenshot.
“Hey, Susan — thanks for reaching out. Respectfully, f*ck off,” Gardon wrote.
Newsom was blasted for thecommentshe made regarding his SAT score during a conversation with Democratic Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens, who is black.
“I’m not trying to impress you. I’m just trying to press upon you that I’m like you,” Newsom stated. “I’m no better than you. I’m a 960 SAT guy. And I’m not trying to offend anybody, I’m not trying to act all there if you got a 940. But literally, a 960 SAT guy. You’ve never seen me read a speech because I cannot read a speech.”
Newsom responded to critics on X in a post directed at Fox News anchor Sean Hannity.
