Claim 3: “Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) on Thursday criticized Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy for urging Americans to take road trips as gas prices surged”
INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE
The claim states Newsom criticized Duffy for urging 'road trips' during gas price surges. However, the evidence shows Newsom actually criticized Duffy for comments about passengers 'working out' while waiting for flights. While Newsom did criticize the administration over gas prices, the specific 'road trip' detail is contradicted by the Benzinga report regarding the actual nature of the criticism toward Duffy.
