Newsom’s former chief of staff indicted on public corruption charges
-
"Gov. Gavin Newsom’s former chief of staff, Dana Williamson, has been indicted by a federal grand jury"
According to court documents, between February 2022 and September 2024, Williamson conspired with others to divert approximately $225,000 from a dormant political campaign to an associate’s personal use. The funds were funneled through various business entities and disguised as pay for a no-show job, federal prosecutors allege.
The indictment also alleges that Williamson conspired with a business associate to create false, backdated contracts after receiving a civil subpoena in January 2024 from the U.S. Attorney’s Office. The subpoena was related to Paycheck Protection Program, or PPP, loans made to Williamson’s business.
Williamson is also accused of subscribing to false tax returns that claimed more than $1 million in business deductions for personal and nondeductible expenses. These included private jet travel, luxury hotel stays, home furnishings, designer handbags, and payments for no-show jobs for friends and family, the Department of Justice said.
So much for George Santos (small fraction of
that) being important

Newsom knew she was shady a year ago, says Politico.
Gov. Gavin Newsom put his former chief on leave when he learned a year ago that she was under criminal investigation
Sounds good, set her aside until she's clean........except 1 thing: She didn't turn up clean.
"innocent until proven guilty" & jury might free her.......but still: She didn't turn up clean.
& Newsom said nothing.
So........ either HE KNEW she was dirty & he hid it on purpose........ Or.......he didn't know & is retarded.
You decide.
ps. FBI started it under Biden, don't blame Trump.
Dana Williamson, who was indicted on public corruption charges Wednesday, was interviewed by the FBI in November 2024
