Event Summary

United States — California Governor Gavin Newsom was denied entry to speak at the United States — United States House of Representatives during the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Newsom's office claims this denial was due to pressure from the United States — White House and United States — United States Department of State, escalating a political feud between Newsom and President Donald Trump. Newsom used his time at Davos to criticize Donald Trump's administration and European leaders' responses to his policies. United States — White House spokesperson Anna Kelly and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent publicly disparaged Newsom, while Donald Trump also commented on Newsom's presence during his own speech. Fortune (magazine), which had invited Newsom to speak, confirmed the United States — United States House of Representatives's decision not to accommodate him.
