Gavin Newsom Accuses Trump of Directing DOJ Investigation into Him and His Wife

15 Haziran 2026The Guardian

California Governor Gavin Newsom accused former President Donald Trump of orchestrating an investigation by the US Department of Justice into him and his wife. In a video statement, Newsom claimed that federal agents had approached family friends and former employees in search of incriminating evidence.
He suggested that this investigation is politically motivated, linked to his potential presidential ambitions.
The investigation comes at a time when both Newsom and Trump are prominent figures in American politics, with Trump facing multiple legal challenges of his own. The use of federal investigative powers in political contexts has been a contentious issue, often leading to accusations of abuse and overreach.
Newsom's allegations reflect the increasingly contentious political climate in the U.S., where investigations can be perceived as tools of political warfare. The timing of these claims, coinciding with Newsom's consideration for a presidential run, raises questions about the intersection of justice and politics.
