California Governor Gavin Newsom's wife claimed that the firing of Kristi Noem and Pam Bondi was because of President Donald Trump's 'war on all women.'
Jennifer Siebel Newsom, 51, jumped on social media on Saturday and told her followers that it came as 'no surprise' that Trump gave Noem and Bondi the boot first.
'Trust me, I'm not a fan of Pam Bondi nor Kristi Noem,' Newsom began. 'But I need to call out that its no surprise to me that the first two prominent people pushed out of this administration are women.'
She went on to explain that the women handpicked by Trump 'align themselves with an agenda that controls women, restricting our rights, limiting our autonomy and pushing us back into this straitjacket of femininity and is only in service of men.'
'There's a familiar pattern here. Women are brought in, packaged Mar-a-Lago style, and lifted up as long as they commit to wholeheartedly serve the interests of the patriarchy at the top,' she continued.
According to Newsom, the women in Trump's Administration may have what 'looks like power or proximity to power with a big title' but their positions don't offer job security or protection.
'There's no secure place inside this hand-picked patriarchal body that systemically disrespects, devalues and discriminates against women and girls,' she said.
'And this is where complicity comes in, because when you align yourself with that value system, with a leader who has publicly devalued women, degraded them and been found liable of abusing women. Well guess what, you're gonna be the first to go.'
Newsom claimed that even the conservative women who are 'packaged Mar-a-Lago style' are not safe from the Trump Administration's 'war on women'
The California governor's wife's comments were slammed online, with some noting that she could hurt her husband's chances at becoming president.
'So, while you're in a perceived position of power in this system that regularly diminishes and devalues other women - even if you help sustain and uplift this system - your power is only temporary and ultimately they will come for you,' she continued.
'That's the unfortunate truth for all women. No woman is safe in Trump's republican party. Unless she has enough wealth or the ability to buy her own job security and safety.'
'And so my friends, regardless of your political affiliation, you might want to wake up and see this for what it truly is. It's a war on all women,' she concluded.

'Both of these chuckleheads are going to lose the re-election chances for Gavin Newscam. Just let them keep talking,' one user wrote on X.
'No she was fired for being incompetent. Stop lying and play the Woman victim card. Enough of this woke agenda. It stop when Trump won the election,' another said.
'If Trump didn't like women or didn't want women in important jobs he wouldn't have put them there in the first place. Democrats insult their voters' intelligence on a regular basis. Maybe they are too stupid to follow simple logic.'
'This is really gross. They hated and wanted both Kristi and Pam out of the administration. Who is "coming" for who?'
Just last month, Newsom scolded reporters at her husband's Planned Parenthood press conference for not asking enough about the 'war on women'.
Former news anchor Kevin Steele said on Facebook: 'This woman might single-handedly destroy any chance [Gavin] Newsom has at becoming president.'
On TikTok, the video garnered a much more positive response, with users describing Newsom as 'very well spoken' and a 'breath of fresh air.'
'Well spoken, well said , thank you for speaking on this issue truthfully,' one user wrote.
'I agree. This was the first thing that came to my mind when Bondi's firing followed Noem's. Neither belonged in those positions. But nobody in Trumps orbit are qualified,' another said.
'This sweet lady is a breath of fresh air.'

Newsom, who runs the Representation Project which fights against intersectional gender stereotypes and harmful gender norms, stood by her husband at the event before she took over the podium.
'This happens over and over and over again. You wonder why we have such a horrific war on women in this country, and that these guys are getting away with it. Because you don't seem to care,' she said.
'So I just offer that - with love,' she added, prompting laughs.
Pam Bondi, 60, received the boot from the administration just days ago after waves of MAGA fury over her botched handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files
Former Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, 54, was fired in March after she testified under oath before the Senate Judiciary Committee
Bondi, 60, received the boot from the administration just days ago, becoming second Cabinet casualty in less than a month. Her firing came after waves of MAGA fury over her botched handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
The president, however, praised Bondi on her way out on Truth Social and said she is a 'great American and a loyal friend' who did a 'tremendous job' on bringing down the murder rate.
'We love Pam, and she will be transitioning to a much needed and important new job in the private sector, to be announced at a date in the near future,' Trump wrote.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche will serve as acting attorney general until a permanent nominee is picked. Bondi is out of the administration and is expected to transition into the private sector.
Her firing followed former Department of Homeland Security Secretary Noem's similar fate in early March.
Trump revealed that Noem, 54, had been relieved at the same time as he announced her replacement; Senator Markwayne Mullin.
The 'last straw' came when Noem told Senator John Kennedy under oath that she'd been given Trump's approval for a $220million taxpayer-funded campaign designed to boost her national profile.
She testified that the multi-million dollar ad campaign was signed off on by the President when pressed by Congress under oath this week. 'I never knew anything about it,' he told Reuters in an interview.
