Newsom Accuses Trump of Justice System Abuse

California Governor Gavin Newsom dropped a bombshell this week, alleging President Trump ordered a Justice Department probe targeting him and his wife—claiming federal agents are secretly gathering records from his friends and former staff, not to investigate crimes but to fabricate one. Newsom tied the probe to his vocal criticism of Trump’s lies and his potential 2028 run, calling the president corrupt and accusing him of weaponizing the justice system against political foes, even citing the Comey indictments as precedent. The DOJ has yet to respond, leaving the scope and legitimacy of any inquiry murky—amid rising political heat and accusations of abuse of power in Washington.
