The political battle between Sacramento and Washington just went global. Newsom’s office alleges that the Trump Administration and the State Department applied direct pressure to have the Governor barred from the "USA House" pavilion. Despite being invited weeks ago, Newsom was turned away at the door by security, with officials citing a "venue-level decision." Newsom didn`t hold back, taking to X (formerly Twitter) to call the move "weak and pathetic." This comes just hours after Newsom mocked President Trump’s Davos address as "remarkably boring" and "insignificant." Meanwhile, White House spokesperson Anna Kelly fired back, calling Newsom a "third-rate governor" and "Newscum." 

Southern California was shaken by an intense earthquake swarm as more than 150 seismic disturbances struck the Coachella Valley in under 24 hours. The quakes clustered along the Mission Creek strand of the San Andreas Fault, raising concerns about escalating seismic pressure beneath the region.
