Conservative influencer announces she's leaving Texas to head back to California: ‘It is home for better or for worse'
Conservative influencer Blaire White is ditching Texas to head back to her home state of California after fleeing the Golden State in 2021. White, 31, announced this week that she'll be returning to Los Angeles after living in Austin in hopes of being part of 'the solution' to help fix the ongoing issues instead of watching her home state 'burn' from a distance. 3 Conservative influencer Blaire White revealed she's moving back to California. The Blaire White Project 'I was born there, so it is home for better or for worse,' the transgender social media star told her 1.5 million subscribers on YouTube. 'There are a lot of problems with California and a lot of people like to write off New York and California and say, 'Just let them go overboard, let them burn,' and I find that to be a very un-American perspective to hold.' The YouTube star believes California is 'the most beautiful place in the world,' and shared it's a 'shame' that 'it's run by demons.' 'I want to be someone who's part of the solution. I want to be someone who doesn't run from problems,' White said. 'I moved to Texas in the middle of Covid. So I moved to Texas in crisis. The lockdowns weren't ending, so much trauma from that, so much craziness, so it was kind of like an evacuation.' 3 White, 31, announced this week that she'll be returning to Los Angeles after living in Austin in hopes of being part of 'the solution.' Facebook / Blaire White White also said that Los Angeles has now become 'ghetto and downtrodden,' but when she returns, she may seek political office in the future to help change the direction the city and state are heading in. She was one of the many influencers and online personalities — including Joe Rogan — who fled California for Texas during the COVID-19 pandemic, amid the state's strict lockdown policies. White was born in Corning, about 100 miles north of Sacramento, and has quickly gained popularity through her YouTube channel over the years for her outspoken political commentary and views on transgender rights and feminism. 3 The YouTube star believes California is 'the most beautiful place in the world,' and shared it's a 'shame' that 'it's run by demons.' Facebook / Blaire White 'I am a transgender woman who lives my life and goes out every day as myself,' White told Newsweek in a 2017 interview. 'I have never been assaulted for being trans. I've never had anyone on the street say anything nasty to me about being trans. But I was assaulted for wearing a Trump hat. I think that speaks for itself.' The YouTuber transitioned in 2015 while studying computer science at California State University, Chico. Before starting on YouTube, she was a self-described 'social justice warrior' with left-leaning views, but said her views began shifting to the right during her college years.

Conservative influencer reveals why she is LEAVING Texas to return to liberal California
One of the internet's most popular conservative influencers is leaving Texas after four years to return to her home state of California. Blaire White, 31, fled her Hollywood home in 2021 amid rising homelessness and the state's tyrannical Covid policies to move to Austin, Texas. However, she announced this week that she's ready to return to California after spending the last four years in Austin. Addressing the major life change in a YouTube video, the transgender social media star shared her surprising reason behind the shock relocation. 'I was born there, so it is home for better or for worse,' Chico-born Blaire said. 'There are a lot of problems with California and a lot of people like to write off New York and California and say, "Just let them go overboard, let them burn," and I find that to be a very un-American perspective to hold,' she continued. 'California in my opinion is the most beautiful place in the world. Yes, I said the world,' she added. 'And it's even more of a shame because of that that it's run by demons.' While Blaire said that Los Angeles has now become 'ghetto and downtrodden,' she explained that she wants to return to the City of Angels to help improve it. 'I want to be someone who's part of the solution. I want to be someone who doesn't run from problems,' she insisted. 'I moved to Texas in the middle of Covid. So I moved to Texas in crisis. The lockdowns weren't ending, so much trauma from that, so much craziness, so it was kind of like an evacuation,' she continued. The YouTube star said that she's also eyeing a run for political office in the future and is excited to add her voice to California politics as a political commentator. Blaire is one of the most popular political influencers online and has previously appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience, Infowars with Alex Jones, Dr. Phil and more. She's not the first social media star to return to California after moving to Texas either. Shortly after Joe Rogan relocated to Austin in 2020, comedian Tim Dillon quickly followed. However, within just a few months Dillon ditched the red state to return home to Hollywood. 'It's a horrible city without a soul,' he told fellow comedian Whitney Cummings when describing his stint in Austin. 'It's not the live music capital of America. It's three heroin addicts busking with guitars. There's zero talent here in any capacity,' he continued. 'There's three restaurants that are good and I've been to all of them twice.' In another interview with the American Redact podcast, he said that Austin 'can't be compared to New York and Los Angeles.' In recent years, many people have left New York and California for Las Vegas, Florida, Texas, and Montana, citing high crime rates and taxes in their home states for the move.
