California Gov. Gavin Newsom claims President Donald Trump has directed the Justice Department to investigate him and his family, in what could be the most significant escalation yet of the administration’s legal campaign against critics of the president.
“They have not found a crime – they are simply trying to find one,” Newsom wrote on X. “He isn’t coming after me because of mean tweets, but because I am considering running for President.”
This is a breaking news story and will be updated with new information.
