Matt Leinart Is Fed Up With Gavin Newsom & His Dumb Rules

Fox Sports football analyst Matt Leinart is the latest to lose his mind over the iron fist tactics deployed by California governor Gavin Newsom, who famously broke his own COVID protocols to enjoy a dinner with friends at one of the most expensive restaurants in the United States. Newsom apologized for the lapse in judgment and then went on to impose a 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. curfew for 41 counties.

Leinart hit his breaking point Sunday after it was announced that, starting Wednesday, Los Angeles County will ban indoor and outdoor dining for three weeks. "I wear a mask. I go to the grocery store. I cook my own food," Leinart tweeted. "I have a wife and kids. My dad is high risk and we are careful. You all are too much! Stop being bullies!"






Leinart deleted his tweet about moving out of California, but his wife, attorney Josie Loren, stepped in and added clarification to what the USC legend was trying to say. Leinart and his wife join Kelly Stafford as people from the sports world speaking out against what they're seeing happening in their communities. Stafford called Michigan a "dictatorship" and said she feared businesses run by friends would be devastated by the state's latest round of lockdowns.

"Follow my wife @josloren. She’s smarter than all you," Leinart added. "Actually, truly she’s smarter than all you haters! Lol"
