I saw this reported elsewhere and immediately went over to see what they thought of 1) Newsome's new position, and 2) him being seen during daylight hours speaking to a conservative.

Gavin Newsom breaks with Democrats on trans athletes in sports
Looks like someone is positioning themselves as the moderate/centrist for a 2028 run…..

“California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a pioneer for LGBTQ+ rights who decades ago upset leaders in his own party when he defied state law and issued marriage licenses to same-sex couples, suggested Democrats were in the wrong in allowing transgender athletes to participate in female college and youth sports.

“I think it’s an issue of fairness, I completely agree with you on that. It is an issue of fairness — it’s deeply unfair,” Newsom said in his debut podcast episode of “This is Gavin Newsom.” “I am not wrestling with the fairness issue. I totally agree with you.”

Newsom also agreed that the most politically destructive attack ads from Trump’s campaign featured Kamala Harris’ support for providing taxpayer-funded gender transition-related medical care for detained immigrants and federal prisoners.

“She didn’t even react to it, which was even more devastating,” Newsom said, suggesting upward of 90 percent of Americans disagreed with Harris’ position. “Then you had the video [of Harris] as a validator. Brutal,” Newsom added. “It was a great ad.”

Any female athlete who trusts Noisome is a fool not paying attention to what is being done in CA.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Oh No
Anyway

Nero Newscum is pretending to be sane but do not fear DUmbass DUchebags, Newscum will come back to leftist insanity quicker than you can say he is a fascist asshole.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Lots of posts removed and deleted in that thread.  It's entertaining watching them try to dance around an issue without violating their dictated levels of political correctness.  EarlG has ruled that the entire transexual issue cannot be discussed in any meaningful way.  Therefore, men who decided they were women are to be treated as if they are actually women.  The impact on actual women in sports is a forbidden topic.  And the DUmmies, who claim to endorse science-based conclusions, are told to ignore the data that shows that men are physiologically advantaged in most sports.  EarlG had to shut the conversation down because there were too many DUmmies who were acknowledging this fact.  It's funny how they throw around the word "fascist" so often, but on their favorite "liberal" website they are scared to express themselves and potentially commit a "thoughtcrime".  Truly Orwellian behavior.

Hilarious. It's an 80/20 issue and EarlG has ordained that only the 20 side is allowed.

What a load of insanity.

Nobody is suggesting eliminating so called trans people from sports entirely.

Nobody.

They can play in the category of their sex.

Note for lurking DUmmies: sports and bathrooms are segrated by sex, which is biological.

There's no fanbase for trans sports. Everybody keeps switching teams.

Noisome is playing the same word-game played by Dems saying they personally opposed abortion but would not do anything about it.

Which are "bigotry against whites, white men, straights, and non-white, non-straight people who don't tow the party line is the only bigotry allowed and encouraged".

I don’t think Governor nuisance actually came out and said he was against it. He danced around by talking about fairness and then sliding off into a different subject. It just didn’t come out and say it’s bad I’m against it. Newsome is just a greasy slimeball and a consummate liar.

Newscum is trying to Bill Clinton folks as shown in this youtube piece with Dana Carvey on Dennis Miller's show (see about the 3:43 mark).
