California Gov. Newsom Claims Trump Directed DOJ Investigation into Him, Wife
California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) stated on Monday that President Trump allegedly directed the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate both him and his wife. Newsom asserted that this purported directive was a response to his consideration of a presidential run, rather than their ongoing public disputes. The claim follows months of intense feuding between Newsom and Trump, which has played out across social media and through public remarks.
California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) stated on Monday that President Trump allegedly directed the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate both him and his wife.
Newsom's assertion comes after months of intense public disputes and feuds between the two political figures, which have been observed on social media platforms and in public remarks.
The governor explicitly linked the alleged directive to his political ambitions, stating, "He isn't coming after me because of mean tweets, but because I am considering running for President." This indicates Newsom's belief that his potential presidential candidacy is the underlying reason for the supposed investigation.
