Gov. Gavin Newsom‘s (D-CA) new podcast is the unofficial start of his campaign for president in 2028, and he is beginning the run pretending he has moderated on transgender matters.

Newsom acknowledged that males playing in female sports is “deeply unfair” in a discussion with conservative activist Charlie Kirk. This alone is a violation of the Left’s sacred sacrament of “thou shall not ever acknowledge any negative consequences of the transgender movement.” California Democrats are already throwing a tantrum over this, saying they are “profoundly sickened” by Newsom’s dalliance with the dark side of “conservative talking points.”
