Part 1/8:
Gavin Newsom's Political Ambitions and California's Shift
In recent events, California Governor Gavin Newsom has emerged as a prominent figure among Democrats looking to resist the incoming administration of President-elect Donald Trump. With ambitions possibly extending towards a 2028 presidential run, Newsom is not just focusing on local governance but is actively calling for funding—$25 million—to support battles against Trump’s second term initiatives. This funding is indicative of a broader strategy as Newsom aligns himself with the progressive wing of the Democratic Party.
