It’s a bit more complex. Gov. Gavin Newsom.
It’s a bit more complex. Gov. Gavin Newsom’s aunt, Barbara Newsom, was once married to Ron Pelosi, Nancy Pelosi’s brother-in-law.
Gov. Pat Brown’s administration developed Squaw Valley for the 1960s winter Olympics and afterward awarded a concession to operate it to William Newsom and his partner, John Pelosi.
One of the Pelosis’ sons, Paul, married Nancy D’Alesandro, who went into politics and has now claimed speakership of the House of Representatives. Another Pelosi son married William Newsom’s daughter, Barbara. Until they divorced, that made Nancy Pelosi something like an aunt by marriage to Gavin Newson (Nancy Pelosi’s brother-in-law was Gavin Newsom’s uncle).
They are all related in a tangled web of power in which 4 families control all of California. The voters are dupes who have nothing to say.
