California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office said the governor was denied entry into a venue at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, on Jan. 21, after being invited to speak at the event due to “pressure” from the Trump administration.

Newsom had been scheduled to speak with Fortune at the USA House, Davos, a privately organized event, at the World Economic Forum, which has been recognized by the U.S. government as the nation’s headquarters in Davos.

    Almost everything. California doesn’t make trade rules, it doesn’t regulate interstate commerce, and those that do are outwardly hostile to them. There’s a good chance he gets indicted next year in the run up to the election, even though he’s a lousy candidate and choosing him or any of the establishment picks is akin to throwing the election, again.

    Unless he finds his backbone and constructs a popular reform ticket, but he was chosen not to do that.
