Gavin Newsom, Arnold Schwarzenegger
Digest more
Former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is pumping up for a new fight. The longtime Hollywood action star, the last Republican governor in Democrat-dominated California, says he’s mobilizing to oppose the push by current Gov. Gavin Newsom to temporarily scrap the state’s nonpartisan redistricting commission.
While delivering remarks to a crowd, Newsom tore into President Donald Trump, who has backed Texas Republicans, calling him a “failed president” and the “most unpopular” in modern history. He pledged to “meet fire with fire,” and pointed to how Trump tried to “light democracy on fire” on Jan. 6, and is now ”once again trying to rig the system."
The former California governor says Trump's plan to rig Texas redistricting maps for Republicans doesn't justify his Democratic successor Gavin Newsom gerrymandering blue seats in retaliation.

Arnold Schwarzenegger says he's prepared to campaign against California redistricting efforts
Hollywood star and former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is publicly speaking against the effort to send more Democrats to Congress through redistricting and is prepared to campaign against it.
The Terminator’ star Arnold Schwarzenegger opened up about what sparked his dream of leaving Austria to live in the U.S. during a July 15 interview with the 'WSJ'.
In a recent appearance on comedian Theo Von’s This Past Weekend podcast, Schwarzenegger recalled that when he first arrived in California, the state’s population was around 20 million. Since then, it has roughly doubled — a surge that, he argued, demanded a proportional increase in housing.
California stands out for its steep housing costs. According to real estate brokerage Redfin, the average monthly rent in the state is $2,481 — substantially higher than the U.S. median of $1,642.
