Charlie Crist’s campaign to defeat the popular Republican governor.the contribution, which the Siebel Family Revocable Trust made to the Friends of Ron DeSantis PAC, giving $5,000 earlier this year, on April 6, 2022. The trust is reportedly run by Newsom’s in-laws — Kenneth F. Siebel Jr. and Judith A.
