Gavin Newsom claims Trump ordered DOJ probe targeting him and his wife
https://ift.tt/ynQ0m2V

California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Monday revealed that the Justice Department is investigating him and his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, under orders from President Donald Trump.

"After calling for my arrest last year, Donald Trump directed his Department of Justice to investigate me," he said in a video statement. "And just in the last week, I’ve learned his campaign has reached my own home: to get me, he’s coming after my wife, Jen."

The governor also claimed the investigation is intended to undermine any potential White House bid he may pursue in the future.

"Donald Trump isn’t just coming after me because of my mean Tweets. He’s coming after me because I am considering running for President," he said. "Because he hates that I’ve consistently called him out – over and over again – for his lies and deceit. Donald Trump is simply the most corrupt President in American history."
