California Governor Gavin Newsom just shocked everyone by saying something many conservatives have been saying for years. He admitted that letting biological males compete in girls’ sports is unfair. This sudden change surprised his fellow Democrats, who used to praise him as a champion for LGBTQ rights. Now they’re furious at him for breaking ranks.
Newsom made the comments on his new podcast while talking to conservative activist Charlie Kirk. He agreed that a male athlete winning a girls’ championship in long jump was wrong. Democrats have spent years pushing for transgender athletes to join women’s sports. Newsom’s honesty shows even liberals know these policies hurt female athletes.
The governor used to sign laws expanding transgender rights. Now he’s backtracking because his party is “getting crushed” on the issue. Polls show most Americans agree with common sense fairness in sports. Newsom’s flip-flop proves Democrats are scared of losing votes. They can’t defend the indefensible anymore.
Just last week, a transgender athlete won a California high school girls’ competition. Parents and coaches stayed silent, afraid of being called bigots. Newsom’s admission gives them cover to speak up. Women’s sports should be for women. Period.
Senate Democrats blocked a bill this week to ban transgender athletes from women’s sports. Not one Democrat voted to protect female athletes. They’d rather please activists than listen to parents. Meanwhile, Republicans are standing up for fairness and safety.
Newsom’s critics say he’s eyeing a 2028 presidential run. His sudden “moderate” shift won’t fool anyone. Conservatives see right through this political game. You can’t claim to support women while letting males steal their trophies.
LGBTQ groups blasted Newsom, saying sports help transgender kids’ mental health. But what about the girls who train for years only to lose to someone with male biology? Their dreams don’t matter? This isn’t about hate—it’s about fairness.
The left’s radical agenda is unraveling. Even Newsom knows it. Democrats are divided, and Republicans must keep pushing to protect women’s sports. Let’s hope more leaders find the courage to say what everyone knows: Boys don’t belong in girls’ locker rooms.
