Fox News Cuts Trump Interview After On-Air Rant at Gavin Newsom

Tensions are escalating between President Donald Trump and California Governor Gavin Newsom following Newsom's stern warning regarding Trump's controversial redistricting strategies aimed at securing additional congressional seats. In a pointed letter, Newsom cautioned Trump that if he pursued unprecedented redistricting maneuvers in red states, California and potentially other Democratic states would retaliate.During a recent White House press briefing, Trump labeled Newsom “Gavin Newscum,” dismissing the governor's capabilities while vowing to defend his congressional ambitions. Newsom, in stark terms, accused Trump of undermining democracy and declared his intent to lead a counter-effort to redraw California's maps if redistricting continued unchecked in Republican-led states.He emphasized the need for accountability in maintaining electoral integrity, sending a clear message via social media that his state would not remain passive. As tensions flare, both sides prepare for a contentious political landscape, with the 2026 midterm elections looming.
