California Gov. Gavin Newsom said Monday that the Department of Justice is investigating him, claiming that President Donald Trump is targeting a “political enemy” despite no evidence the Democratic potential 2028 presidential contender has committed a crime.

Newsom said in a video posted to social media that Trump’s administration is also targeting his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom.
“If he can’t intimidate me, he’ll go after the mother of our children,” Newsom said. “Donald Trump picked the wrong target. We have nothing to hide.”
Newsom said Trump “can subpoena my records, you can investigate me, you can harass me, put my name on every and any enemies list you have, but leave my wife and family out of your personal vendetta.”
CNN has reached out to the FBI for comment. The Justice Department declined to comment.
The New York Times first reported Newsom’s announcement.
In the video, he called Trump “a man with no character” and said Trump “is selling the presidency.”
“To Donald Trump, this country does not belong to you. It does not belong to your cronies. And we’re going to fight your lawlessness. And we’re going to continue to remind the people of this country of your corruption,” Newsom said.
