Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich has backed the grassroots effort to recall California Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA), who seems to be riding a growing wave of unpopularity related to his COVID-19 policies, such as his recent widespread curfew order and his subsequent stay-at-home order affecting the majority of Californians.

“The ‘blue wave’ that the left-wing media spent months talking about disappeared in California,” Gingrich told Politico in a statement Friday. “This is a direct result of Gavin Newsom’s destructive leadership that has crippled small businesses and sent billions of dollars of California COVID-19 jobless benefits to criminals across the nation.”
