What is Gavin Newsom's net worth? California Gov branded 'worst in history' after extreme Thanksgiving rules

One tweeted, 'You can't make this stuff up! These ppl want to ruin everything! California Gov. Newsom's Thanksgiving rules explained as severe restrictions put in place'

California Governor Gavin Newsom is being called out for his highly restrictive Thanksgiving guidelines, which “strongly” discourages singing and allows gathering for only “two hours” among other rules that need to be followed during the upcoming holiday. Celebrities and commoners alike have taken a jab at Newsom on social media for his “Thanksgiving insanity.” 

On October 25, former Fox News and NBC host Megyn Kelly shared the list of restrictions as announced by the governor through the following Twitter post. 

Meanwhile, the California Department of Public Health, which released the statement along with Newsom, has said, "Gatherings are defined as social situations that bring together people from different households at the same time in a single space or place. When people from different households mix, this increases the risk of transmission of COVID-19."

"The longer the duration [of the gathering], the risk of transmission increases. Gatherings that occur outdoors are significantly safer than indoor gatherings. All gatherings must be held outside. Attendees may go inside to use restrooms as long as the restrooms are frequently sanitized," it reads further. 

The Thanksgiving protocol also instructs: "Singing, chanting, shouting, and physical exertion significantly increases the risk of COVID-19 transmission because these activities increase the release of respiratory droplets and fine aerosols into the air. Because of this, singing, chanting, and shouting are strongly discouraged."

Many, including actor-comedian Rob Schneider, have mocked and trolled Newsom for putting these rules in place. He tweeted, "Dear Emperor @GavinNewsom During our allotted 3 family limit this Thanksgiving, if my Aunt comes over, can I throw her a slice of turkey from the window? We promise NOT to sing... we will all just whisper, 'PLEASE RECALL DIPS**T GAVIN NEWSON!'"

What's Gavin Newsom net worth?

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Newsom is allegedly worth around $10 million. He created PlupJack Associates LP in 1991 at the age of 24, with the help of a few investors. The group eventually started the PlumpJack Winery in California. As the business grew, Newsom and his investors expanded it into PlumpJack Café, PlumpJack Squaw Valley Inn, PlumpJackSport retail clothing, and more. The California governor's annual income was reportedly more than $429,000 from 1996 to 2001. His businesses were valued at $6.9 million in 2002. In February 2006, he reportedly spent $2,350,000 on his residence in the Russian Hill neighborhood, which was placed in the market in April 2009 for $3,000,000. 

Meanwhile, more and more people are taking to Twitter to express their frustration with regard to the recently announced Thanksgiving restrictions by Newsom and CDPH. One tweeted, "You can't make this stuff up! These ppl want to ruin everything! California Gov. Newsom's Thanksgiving rules explained as severe restrictions put in place." another added, "Is Gavin Newsom the worst Governor in history? The guy has to be in the top 3. The Thanksgiving restrictions laid out by CA are truly unbelievable. It's as if he actually wants CA residents to leave." One tweeted, "I am flying to California for Thanksgiving with my daughter and her fiance. We are not going to dine outdoors We are not going to social distance ourselves. Gov Newsom is a nut. Power hungry."
