Law enforcement officials are investigating escalating threats of death and violence against California Gov. Gavin Newsom, his family and the wineries, shops and other businesses he’s founded. A voicemail and emails provided to the Sacramento Bee contained graphic, abusive language about Newsom, violent sexual threats against his wife and a reference to his children. The newspaper said one communication included a threat to burn down one of the wineries owned by PlumpJack Group, the hospitality company Newsom founded in 1992, with patrons inside.
“We can confirm that we are aware of these threats,” Ferguson wrote in a statement. “Any threats against elected officials, including public or private property, are taken seriously and closely monitored by the appropriate local, state or federal law enforcement.”
The Democratic governor is the subject of a recall effort pushed by political foes angered over his aggressive approach to the coronavirus outbreak. Newsom received wide praise when he issued the nation’s first statewide stay-at-home order last spring, but there has been growing public unrest over subsequent health orders that have closed schools and businesses, and investigations continue into a massive unemployment benefits fraud scandal.

1. He never thought this would happen?
2. He is immune from killing other people's lives and livelyhood?
3. His policies have killed people and there is no consequence?
4. I am not sympathetic to this jack wagon. You wanted to play king and this comes with your role.
That said, no one should be threatening to kill Newsom.
They'll name street's after him.
until they name names i dont believe it ..
No surprise, really ......................... that this “story” has been reported.
After the lies of law enforcement in the Clinton investigations and the fake Russian investigation, would anyone ever believe a statement from law enforcement?
Who murdered Ashli Babbitt?
Zactly
Oh, I believe it but, so what?
He probably has been getting threats since he was mayor and now it’s some “Feel Sorry For Me” Story.
Get off the cross, Governor. It’s cold outside and we need the wood to make a campfire...
He probably wants illegals to be food tasters at the Frnch Launxry.
Trying to gain sympathy with regards to an impending recall.
There’s no shortage of Stupid in California Law Enforcement, Newsome IS THE THREAT!! to All Californians
People make the mistake of assuming law enforcement is to protect the people. Law enforcement ONLY serves the government and it’s rules. Not the people. If they happen to serve “the people” it is a bug, not a feature.
You misspelled "Law enfarcement".
Election officials SHOULD fear the people. What keeps them inline otherwise??
