A federal prosecutor claims he has contacted the U.S. Secret Service because California Governor Gavin Newsom’s press office shared a post predicting DHS Secretary Kristi Noem will have a “bad day.”
Newsom’s press office posted on Saturday morning that Noem “is going to have a bad day,” adding, “you’re welcome, America.” Bill Essayli, the acting U.S. attorney for the Central District of California, later shared the post on X and claimed he contacted the Secret Service to request a threat assessment.
