Rescue California, the recall committee helmed by Republican consultants, is facing a $1 million lawsuit filed by a deep-pocketed Bitcoin pioneer stemming from the last, failed attempt to boot Newsom from office in late 2021.

Jesse Powell, a founder and chair of Kraken, one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, is accusing Rescue and the group’s current and former operators of deceiving him to raise eleventh-hour dollars into the committee.

Rescue’s lawyers counter that Powell didn’t suffer damages.
