Gavin Newsom Will NEVER Be able To Live This One Down

The California Governor Gavin Newsom will absolutely never be able to live this one down; his own in-laws are betting against him by financially backing his archnemesis, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. It's rumored that the two may both run for the presidency in 2024 and believe me, Newsom is clearly nervous.

So this news is hilariously embarrassing for According to contribution records on the Friends of Ron DeSantis PAC website, the Siebel Family Revocable Trust made a $5,000 contribution on April 6, 2022.

That trust is run by Kenneth F. Siebel Jr. and Judith A. Siebel, the parents of Newsom's wife, Jennifer Siebel, records obtained by Fox News Digital show.

Neither the Siebels nor Gov. Newsom's office immediately responded to Fox News' requests for comment. The DeSantis campaign declined to comment.

According to Federal Election Commission filingsNewsom's father-in-law Kenneth Siebel has a long history of making donations to GOP candidates. His most recent donations include contributions to the campaigns of Republicans Sens. Ron Johnson, Tom Cotton and Josh Hawley.

"I'm sure he's humiliated because of how aggressive he's come out against Ron DeSantis," conservative radio personality Clay Travis said on an appearance on Fox News on Wednesday. "There's a possibility guys, that this could be a presidential election in 2024 or 2028. These guys don't like each other. And they have such diametrically opposed perspectives when it comes to COVID.

The humiliation is sweeter after Newsom started a was with the Florida Governor after his pandemic policies proved to work out much better for his citizens while California still struggled to recover from the lockdowns.

“Time to make Ron DeSantis a one-term governor,” California Governor Gavin Newsom wrote today of the Florida leader. Newsom proposed to do so by donating $100,000 to DeSantis’ opponent in the November midterm, Rep. Charlie Crist (D-Fla).

Newsom posted the statement on Twitter along with a link to an ActBlue fundraising page and the prompt, “Who will join me in helping Charlie become the next Governor of Florida?”

The Florida governor shot back at Newsom in July saying, “When families are uprooting from the Pacific Coast to go almost 3,000 miles in search of a better life, that’s telling you something.”

“Yes, we’ve created a citadel of freedom here that has attracted people, and we’re proud of it. But, let’s just be clear, California is driving people away with their terrible governance,” he added.

It kind of makes you laugh to know that while Newsom was busy waging wars against DeSantis, his father inlaw was supporting the Florida Govenor.
