California Gov. Gavin Newsom claimed Monday that the Trump administration has opened a criminal investigation into him and his wife, characterizing it as politically motivated retaliation. According to The New York Times, multiple federal investigations are underway. These are said to be examining the governor and his wife's finances, initiated by California-based federal law enforcement officials rather than Trump appointees in Washington. Federal agents have contacted several people linked to their family and allegedly subpoenaed banking records, though Newsom's office has not seen written documentation.
