Newsom Video Explodes Online After Calling Trump “Most Corrupt President in U.S. History”
June 16, 2026
California Governor Gavin Newsom is refusing to back down.
After repeatedly accusing Donald Trump of corruption, self-enrichment and putting personal interests ahead of the public good, Newsom has emerged as one of the former president’s most outspoken political opponents.
Now, Newsom and his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, say they are being targeted for speaking out.
Rather than retreat, the governor doubled down.
“Come and get me.”
His message is one of defiance. A refusal to be intimidated.
A refusal to stay silent.
And a refusal to accept that powerful politicians should be beyond scrutiny.
As tensions continue to rise ahead of the next political battles in the United States, one thing is clear:
Neither side appears willing to back down.
And the confrontation is only getting louder.

English Script:
Gavin Newsome: In recent days, federal agents have knocked on the doors of family, friends, and former employees. Not because they found a crime, because they’re simply trying to find one. They’re demanding records. They’re abusing the grand jury process, digging through years and years of random documents. Donald Trump isn’t just coming after me because of my mean tweets. He’s coming after me because I’m considering running for president. 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. He’s turned the levers of government into his own personal power ministries to reward cronies and to try to jail his opponents. His personal attorney now runs the Department of Justice, which has repeatedly gone after his political enemies. Ask Jerome Pal. Sent them after James Comey, Trish James, Adam Schiff. He sent them after Tim Waltz and a woman that a jury found Donald Trump had sexually abused. One by one, anyone who has challenged Donald Trump has ended up on his hit list. And today, I proudly join that list. After calling for my arrest last year, Donald Trump directed his Department of Justice to investigate me. And just in the last week, I’ve learned that his campaign has reached my own home to get me. He is coming after my wife Jen, a public servant, a woman who’s dedicated her life to supporting women and girls. Someone who has done nothing wrong other than having the temerity to advocate for what she believes in. If they can’t intimidate me, they’ll go after the mother of our children. Donald Trump picked the wrong target. We have nothing to hide. His political operatives can take every record and read every page. But they’ll be looking in the wrong place because if they really want to find corruption, look no further than 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Donald Trump is selling the presidency. He’s running the largest cash heist in American political history, trading foreign tariff relief for approval of his golf courses, day trading behind the Resolute Desk, reaping hundreds of millions of dollars in personal profit. And he’s doing it openly. He’s doing it on camera. He did it last night on the White House lawn. He’s doing it through cryptocurrencies. He’s doing it through the receipt of a $400 million private jet from a foreign government that he plans to keep when he leaves office through his son’s ventures and countries where his own administration is simultaneously making policy. His personal fortune has skyrocketed by $4 billion since making his return to office. This is the behavior of a regime, not a republic. The White House has become a marketplace. A marketplace for sneakers and coins and watches, cologne, guitars, Bibles and phones, influence for sale, access for sale. And today, my family and I can personally confirm that justice is for sale. To Donald Trump, who I know is watching because he watches everything. I have a message for you. You can subpoena my records. You can investigate me. You can harass me. Put my name on every and any enemy’s list you have. But leave my wife and family out of your personal vendetta. I’d like to say something to my wife. These times are not normal. They’re not ordinary. I love you and I’m sorry he’s doing this. You have not earned a single one of the indignities that he’s trying to inflict on you and our children. And 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. That same corruption our founders warned us against. As we move to celebrate our 250th anniversary, I’m going to keep reminding Americans of what they warned would happen if a man with no character ever held the office of presidency. So let me say it again, Mr. President. Come after me. I’m not going anywhere and the country is watching
