Newsom Hits Hard At 'Unmoored' Trump Amid Epstein Scandal: 'This Is Not The Same Trump'
Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.) came full swing at President Donald Trump Saturday, claiming the president is lying to cover up his involvement in convicted sex abuser Jeffrey Epstein's case. 'He's lying to cover up his prior lies and then lying again. Now he doesn't even know truth from fiction, and so look, he's caught it red handed,' Newsom told popular left-wing influencer Brian Tyler Cohen in an interview that aired Saturday. 'He's in the files. We know it, period, full stop.' Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi have received major backlash in the past few weeks over their handling of Epstein's files after hyping them up, then failing to release more information. Many of those outraged are the president's own supporters, who are beginning to turn on him over the issue. Meanwhile, news outlets have been resurfacing old videos, photos and documents that suggest a close friendship between the president and Epstein. 'His biggest supporters may have been the difference in the election, and he turned on them. He has zero loyalty,' Newsom said. The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday that Bondi informed Trump in May that his name was in the files related to Epstein's case. 'He's part of this cover up, and he has confused even the most ardent observers here. I mean, you can't — the guy's a pretzel on this issue. Every hour, he contradicts a statement,' Newsom told Cohen. This week, Trump's former criminal defense attorney, now Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, met with Epstein's co-conspirator and convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell. The president told reporters that pardoning Maxwell is not something he has thought about, but noted that he is 'allowed to do it' 'This is sick stuff. This is sick,' Newsom said. 'I mean, if you're a conspiracy theorist, I mean, they're going to turn me into one. Why the hell are we even talking to her? What, a pardon for what? No, seriously, for what?' He added that Trump has seemed increasingly 'unmoored' as speculation grows about his past relationship with Epstein. 'He's lost a step,' Newsom said. 'This is not the same Trump 1.0. This is, something's off, increasingly off, and he's getting, he's unmoored in ways even by Trump's standards I haven't seen. I don't want to overstate this moment, but you can't understate. This is something, something ain't right, as they say.' Newsom went on to bash Trump over recent actions that some have speculated were intentional distractions from the Epstein scandal, such as threatening to strip Rosie O'Donnell of citizenship, vowing to put cane sugar in Coca-Cola, complaining about the name of the Washington Commanders and sharing a bizarre AI-generated video of Barack Obama being arrested. 'It reminds me of a punch drunk boxer. He's just wildly flailing. He's flailing. He's just zigging and zagging. He's desperate,' Newsom said. 'He's trying anything, trying to chum the waters, and it's not working. And normally it works for him. It's not working right now.' The governor told Cohen that Trump is 'going to have to do a lot more than he's done in the past to be able to dig his way out of this.' Related...

3 charged in armed South Side kidnapping of 2-year-old girl to remain in jail
Three people are facing several charges in the kidnapping of a two-year-old girl who was found safe earlier this week. Prosecutors said the child's mother kidnapped her from her grandmother's house at gunpoint, with the help of two armed men. All three appeared together in front of a judge Saturday afternoon. The judge said the child's mother is the mastermind in what he called a kidnapping scheme that involved guns, death threats, and even leveraging her child's location for her own release. In court, prosecutors said 22-year-old Angelique Mobley and 33-year-old Lamon Weathers were dating during the kidnapping. They said Mobley and Weathers, 27-year-old Matthew Price, and another unknown person somehow gained access to the 2-year-old's grandmother's building near 48th Street and Michigan Wednesday morning. The judge said they had cased the building before forcing their way in and threatening the child's great uncle and girlfriend at gunpoint before taking off with the grandmother's purse, keys, and car. Mobley was armed with a wrench while Weathers and Price had guns. The crew told police they ditched the grandmother's car before returning to their own car and taking off with Mobley's 2-year-old daughter. Prosecutors say they dropped the little girl off with a relative of Weathers in Danville, Illinois. After a quick Google search, the relative saw a news story about the missing child and called the police, which led to her rescue. Police caught up with Mobley and Weathers. Prosecutors said that's when Mobley told police she would tell them where her baby was if they let her go. The state also pointed to a Facebook live by Mobley in which she said she was going to take her child back from the grandmother. The judge expressed concerns about the background of the three. Mobley has two pending retail theft charges. Price, who said he's a full-time babysitter with a battery and gun arrest. And weathers, who was arrested in a security uniform and says he's an associate pastor, has seven felony convictions, including an aggravated assault charge he just pleaded guilty to earlier this month. On top of a kidnapping charge for all three, Mobley is facing residential burglary. Weathers and Price are charged with home invasion with a firearm. Price is also facing a stolen vehicle charge. All three were ordered to remain in jail. The judge said that Mobley, the child's mother, could expect a possible fourth charge of home invasion. They're all expected back in court later this week. It's unclear if the fourth person involved has been identified or arrested by police.
