Stephen Cheung, Trump’s Assistant to the President and White House Director of Communications, was hit with a Community Notes correction after mocking California Governor Gavin Newsom on X. Newsom had posted, “LIVE NOW: Governor Newsom, state leaders make major announcement countering @realDonaldTrump’s gerrymandering scheme" along with a livestream of his announcement.

The announcement referred to efforts by California leaders to challenge proposed congressional map changes in Texas that would unfairly favor Republicans and dilute Democratic-leaning districts. Cheung quote-tweeted it with: “What a Coward and Beta Cuck. @GavinNewsom is too chicken shit to take questions from the press after gives an incoherent speech. He'll never be ready for prime time.”
