California Governor Gavin Newsom says he and his wife, Jen, are the subject of a federal investigation because he’s considering a run for president and has called Trump out for his corruption.
Newsom:
“In recent days, federal agents have knocked on the doors of family, friends, and former employees, not because they found a crime, because they’re simply trying to find one. They’re demanding records. They’re abusing the grand jury process, digging through years and years of random documents. Donald Trump isn’t just coming after me because of my mean tweets. He’s coming after me because I’m considering running for president, because he hates that I’ve consistently called him out over and over again for his lies and deceit.”
