Newsom Family Wealth Under Scrutiny

from Seattle News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The DOJ is digging into Governor Gavin Newsom’s finances — and his wife’s — amid claims it’s a political hit job to sabotage his 2028 presidential hopes. Newsom’s wine empire, PumpJack Group, is worth hundreds of millions, shielded by a blind trust since he took office — but state agencies can’t do business with it. Jennifer Newsom’s own blind trust funds her film career and feminist nonprofit, which has been paid millions by her own company — and received donations from firms that lobby the governor. Complicating matters, Newsom’s other nonprofit, California Partners Project, raised millions from lobbyists, and he’s already been fined for late reporting. With multiple financial streams tangled in public service, private wealth, and political influence, this investigation is far from over — and the stakes are sky-high.
