Newsom Says No ‘Imminent Threat’ to California After FBI Warning on Possible Iran Drone Plot. California Gov. Gavin Newsom said there is no imminent threat to the state after reports of a possible Iran-linked drone attack plot. The warning came from an internal memo by the Federal Bureau of Investigation shared with California law enforcement. The memo cited unverified intelligence suggesting Iranian-affiliated actors had aspired to launch drones from a vessel off the U.S. coast. The alleged targets were unspecified locations in California in retaliation for potential American strikes on Iran. Officials described the information as “aspirational” and said there is currently no evidence the threat is operational. Law enforcement sources said such intelligence reports are routinely shared with local authorities out of caution. Newsom said he remains in constant coordination with security and intelligence officials regarding risks tied to Middle East tensions. Donald Trump said federal authorities are investigating the claim but noted many threats are still being assessed.
