The PlumpJack Winery was established in 1992 by Gavin Newsom and Gordon Getty. Getty is the son of oil tycoon J. Paul Getty, who sold oil to Adolf Hitler to fund the Nazis. Gavin’s father, William Newsom III, has connections to the Nazi’s through his associate Otto von Bolschwing, who was brought to the U.S. by the CIA under Operation Paperclip.
The issue with Nazis and even neo-Confederates like Greg Abbott is that they favor cheap labor. They disregard who they harm as long as they benefit, viewing Latino migrants as a vulnerable group that can be easily exploited.
Wineries Survive on Migrant Labor
Gavin Newsom has a clear conflict of interest in the immigration debate as an owner of a vineyard and a business model that depends on mass immigration. This is similar to Christy Walton — a Walmart heiress — funding the ‘No Kings’ protest, and the Chinese-funded Party of Socialism and Liberation promoting the LA riots as well.

A DUI checkpoint in Napa Valley recently triggered widespread fear among the region’s immigrant community after rumors incorrectly identified it as an ICE operation. This panic comes on the heels of a U.S. Border Patrol raid in Kern County that led to the arrest of 78 undocumented farmworkers. Advocates report heightened anxiety among immigrants, with many fearing imminent deportation under President Trump’s administration. Genesis Monnet of Puertas Abiertas likened the atmosphere to preparing for war, as uncertainty grips the community.
Closing the Border is a Threat to the Wine Industry
California’s wine industry is heavily dependent on immigrant labor, with 73% of Napa Valley’s agricultural workforce being immigrants and an estimated one-third undocumented. If Trump’s deportation plans proceed, the industry could suffer a severe labor shortage, compounding existing economic struggles.
How Chisraeli is Newsom?
PlumpJack Winery was a client of Silicon Valley Bank and the go-to for Israeli tech start-ups. Benjamin Netanyahu was approving the sale of Pegasus spyware to Mexico, which found itself in the hands of the Mexican cartels.
On October 20, 2023, Governor Newsom made a surprise visit to Israel en route to China.
Newsom has been an outspoken critic of the Trump administration's trade policy, arguing that California has been disproportionately affected by the tariffs on China compared to other states. His state not only has extensive trade ties with Asia, but it’s also home to Silicon Valley, which hosts tech companies with integrated supply chains to China.
Chisrael and the Mexican Cartels in Los Angeles
On June 6th, ICE raided Ambiance Apparel in Chinatown, which had pleaded guilty to money laundering in 2020. In 2014, law enforcement conducted raids on the same businesses in the Fashion District associated with transnational drug cartels:
"We have targeted money laundering activities in the Fashion District based on a wealth of information that numerous businesses there are engaged in Black Market Peso Exchange schemes," said Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert E. Dugdale, who oversees the Criminal Division in the Central District of California.
"Los Angeles has become the epicenter of narco-dollar money laundering with couriers regularly bringing duffel bags and suitcases full of cash to many businesses. Because Los Angeles is at the forefront of this money laundering activity, law enforcement in Los Angeles is now at the forefront of combating this issue."
Last year, the DOJ charged members of the Sinaloa cartel based in Los Angeles with laundering over $50 million in drug proceeds through Chinese underground banking.

The most likely method by which China is financing these riots is through the marijuana trade. They exploit migrants as forced labor to cultivate the fields and launder cartel money.

According to a former California Wildlife Department lieutenant, many of these operations rely on trafficked, undocumented immigrants to work the grows, often under threat.
‘[They are] bringing in Mexican nationals, bringing in Chinese immigrants as well, and basically bringing them in as the labor force within these bureau sites, promising them payment,’ retired Lt. John Nores, formerly of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, told NewsNation.
We need politicians willing to address the issue of China and the Likud mafia using Mexican cartels as non-state actors. There must be a middle ground between ‘no one’s illegal’ and Groyper-esque racism. We can empathize with migrants who are being exploited as political pawns in the struggle between Democrats and Republicans, who serve red meat to their base without consideration for the rest of us.
