Olympic bobsled legend Kaillie Humphries has voiced sharp criticism toward California Governor Gavin Newsom regarding state fraud allegations. With the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics approaching, Humphries warned that financial mismanagement threatens the multi-billion dollar event. She specifically addressed Newsom’s office response to independent investigations, citing past scandals like Salt Lake City 2002 as cautionary tales.
Newsom’s spokesperson declined to engage with Humphries directly, emphasizing the state's record on fraud prevention. Humphries, a naturalized citizen residing in San Diego, recently garnered attention for supporting President Donald Trump and awarding him the Order of Ikkos medal.
Her comments highlight growing political tensions surrounding the upcoming Games.
