Episode Details

California Governor Gavin Newsom is accusing the Justice Department of launching an investigation into him and his wife at the behest of President Trump, alleging it’s tied to his rumored 2028 presidential run — with federal agents probing his circle for any wrongdoing, even though no crime has been found. Newsom publicly called on Trump to keep his family out of political fights, while his wife and former chief of staff — the latter having pleaded guilty to campaign finance charges — are also under scrutiny. Meanwhile, Hunter Biden joked he’d consider running as Newsom’s VP in 2028, a remark he later clarified was a joke — though it underscores the buzz around potential 2028 matchups. Newsom is also ramping up his campaign via digital platforms, signaling a serious bid for the White House.
