    California Gov. Gavin Newsom remains a strong supporter of both Pres. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

    He said on his new podcast "Politickin" that he was in the gym when Biden announced he was dropping out.

    "I get all these text messages from the White House saying, 'The president is trying to get in touch with you,' but I didn't even see them," Newsom said.
