Episode Details

California Governor Gavin Newsom is launching a bold counterstrike against Donald Trump’s new $1.776 billion fund for所谓“lawfare victims,” proposing a 100% tax on any California resident who receives payouts. The fund, born from Trump’s IRS lawsuit settlement, is overseen by five DOJ-appointed officials aiming to “make right the wrongs” — a claim Newsom and critics dismiss as a boondoggle likely benefiting Trump allies, including January 6th figures. Newsom’s stance is clear: those who attack cops and undermine democracy don’t deserve taxpayer money. The DOJ will report quarterly on payouts, with claims closing December 1, 2028, and leftover funds returning to the federal government. This move intensifies the public feud between Newsom and Trump, escalating their battle over immigration, elections, and accountability.
