It appears a feud has emerged between California Gov. Gavin Newsom and the administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, Dr. Mehmet Oz. It began after Dr. Oz shared a video addressing medical fraud in Los Angeles on the social media platform X.

Dr. Mehmet Oz claims to have found 42 fraudulent hospices in a 4-block radius in Van Nuys, sparking a backlash from Governor Newsom over alleged racial profiling.

Newsom has made California smaller, poorer and less politically powerful. His many failings should be taken seriously; his presidential ambitions should not.

Gov. Gavin Newsom says his office is taking a close look at a video Dr. Oz shot in the San Fernando Valley and reviewing reports that he targeted the local Armenian American community.

Newsom's office urged the federal government to release additional disaster funding for recovery after the Los Angeles wildfires.

President Trump’s new executive order aims to preempt California permitting rules to speed up wildfire reconstruction in Los Angeles, sparking a clash with Gov. Newsom.

Taken together, this data suggests that as immigration becomes an albatross for Trump, Newsom is using it strategically in order to boost his standing.
