Jennifer Siebel Newsom, the wife of California’s Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom is a documentary filmmaker, but apparently makes a very good living through her association with a non-profit and major political donors.

She reportedly makes hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in this way.

It must be great to be a high-profile Democrat. There seem to be endless streams of income available for the taking and the media looks the other way to protect you.

The New York Post reports:

Gavin Newsom’s wife, Jennifer, raking in as much as $300K a year from political mega-donors and nonprofit: Sources

The wife of California governor Gavin Newsom runs companies stacked with her husband’s former Democratic aides and confidants — while raking in hundreds of thousands of dollars in fees from the state and lobbyists, according to public records.

Documentary filmmaker Jennifer Siebel Newsom, the self-described “First Partner” of California, also received donations to her Representation Project nonprofit from companies that lobbied her husband, according to reports.

The Sacramento-based Representation Project, which describes itself as “the leading gender watchdog organization,” pays Siebel Newsom $150,000 a year for a 40-hour work week, according to tax filings.

Its largest independent contractor is Girls Club Entertainment LLC, a for-profit film company which Siebel Newsom also controls.

In 2024, the nonprofit paid Girls Club $150,000 for “writer/producer/director” services, according to that year’s federal filings…

“It is no surprise Gavin and Jennifer Newsom have leveraged their business and non-profit endeavors for personal and political gain,” said Caitlin Sutherland, executive director of Americans for Public Trust, a non-partisan watchdog group.

What are the donors getting in return?

One can’t help but wonder if the non-profits associated with Ms. Newsom received any of the ‘FireAid’ money that was supposed to go to wildfire victims.
