FBI had someone wired up inside Newsom's circle since mid-2024. Alexis Podesta was recording convos during the probe into Newsom's ex-chief of staff who just pled guilty to fraud. That's why a bunch of Sacramento people got those random FBI letters about intercepted calls even if they barely talked to the guy.

Now Newsom and his wife are part of a wider federal investigation.

Not saying this goes anywhere, but when the feds start recording your inner circle for months, it's not nothing. Wild how quiet this has been.
