Report about where Calif. Gov. Newsom's in-laws moved during the pandemic speaks volumes

Gavin Newsom might feel like a potential run for president in 2024 or beyond could be thwarted by Ron DeSantis, and perhaps that’s the reason the California governor’s been so vocal in going after the Florida governor. Meanwhile, the jokes keep being on Newsom. We’ll start here:

Via the Washington Examiner:

California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis are openly feuding ahead of a potential 2024 showdown, but Mr. Newsom‘s in-laws are reportedly backing the Florida Republican with their wallets.

Contribution records reviewed by Fox News show the Siebel Family Revocable Trust made a $5,000 donation in April to the Friends of Ron DeSantis political action committee.

The trust is operated by Kenneth F. Siebel Jr. and Judith A. Siebel, the parents of Newsom‘s wife, Jennifer Siebel.

But wait, now it gets even better! Don’t be drinking anything when you read this:

NEW: Not only did Gavin Newsom's in-laws give money to a DeSantis PAC, they actually **moved** from California to Florida during the pandemic.

You can’t make this stuff up.

Records show that in March 2020, Kenneth and Judith Siebel, parents of Newsom's wife Jennifer Siebel and longtime California residents, bought a $3.3 million home in Naples, Florida. They still own their CA home in the suburbs of San Francisco.

Both Kenneth and Judith Siebel officially became registered Florida voters in June 2020 as their son-in-law enacted one of country's strictest COVID lockdowns, which have widely been juxtaposed to the lack of restrictions in red states like Florida.

That’s a great question. Maybe somebody should ask Karine Jean-Pierre about it.

In fairness, the in-laws are longtime conservatives, so perhaps Newsom wanted them to leave his state.

Not every member of the Newsom clan hates freedom. https://t.co/f75pDMkZXG

Good to know!

By the time this is over, Newsom is going to be living in Florida with a fake Zoom background of his Sacramento office and telling people that they need to go back to California https://t.co/vUeTyUDjM9
