Why Gavin Newsom refuses to be a "bystander" in this political moment

Published | Video Starts at 04:22

He doesn't. I know this intimately. The day of that election, Prop 50, he sent out the BORTAC teams, those same masked men to Dodger Stadium to intimidate our diverse communities. He [Donald Trump] sent out a tweet that morning, Truth Social, saying the election was rigged. Sent out Department of Justice poll watchers to then file a lawsuit, which he did to go to the Supreme Court saying the election was rigged. He's not screwing around. (04:22–20:37)
