What Newsom's team is telling allies in Congress about Trump's DOJ investigating him

Gavin Newsom's team is urging congressional Democrats to frame the DOJ investigation as political retribution. According to talking points obtained by Axios and Semafor, the probe was ordered by President Trump to hinder the California governor's potential presidential run. Senator Adam Schiff described the investigation as deliberate rather than coincidental, asserting that the DOJ is targeting a Democratic candidate and his family. The DOJ declined to comment on the specific nature of the investigation.
