Newsom in 2007.

2007. Members of a Yale singing group were beaten up by other college kids while visiting San Francisco.

Then Mayor Gavin Newsom is asked about it and says that underaged drinking is to blame.

The reporter then asks Newsom about reports that his 20 year old girlfriend has been seen drinking with him. Newsom storms off.

A few weeks later Newsom checked himself into rehab for alcohol.

In 2018 Newsom began rewriting history by claiming that he never went to rehab for alcohol but instead attended sessions for "life re-centering."
